Kapitel 1085: The Barrier Mage (Part Two)

The enemy's champion sat alone, cross-legged in a corner of the arena. 

The disgusting creature took the form of a young human male, wide-eyed and confused. 

It didn't look threatening, in the least: beardless, muscles average, height middling. 

If it were truly human, (which it was absolutely not,) its physical age was closer to that of a child than an adult... 

Tycondrius wouldn't have been surprised if the enemy sent an *actual* child into combat. The gods of the lizard pantheon seemed to only choose children to serve as their so-called 'exarchs'. 

During his travels, Tycon had obliviated¹ one and murdered² two others. 

He wondered if, perhaps, the third lizard champion was chosen only for their appearance.
