The term that came out of the polite man's mouth was unfamiliar to both Finn and Iris.
"Warrior's Cage…? What's that?" Iris asked.
"The top entertainment facility of this Underground City," the man explained, spreading his arms gently. "A fighting ring where the audience places bets, and the winner takes all. My master would like to hire you as her contracted fighter. If you win in fights, this is a very profitable opportunity."
"Is that so?" Finn answered in his usual stoic tone. "Unfortunately, I am not interested in making profits."
The man fell silent momentarily, the smile disappearing from his face, but it returned as quickly as it had left.
"Finn Thresher. Age 18. Male. Currently being hunted by all five Ghost Hunter Guilds under the suspicion of being a Sentient. Does that sound about right?"
