During an audience with Emperor Nero, Agrippina orders Cestvs to fight the young guard Ruska. After being choked out by fighting prodigy Ruska, Cestvs is discouraged by his first defeat, but when Zafar tells him that he has a future, he pledges to become stronger. Time passes, and Cestvs visits Pompeii as part of Drisco's boxing group, where he encounters Pompeii's strongest fighting slave, Emden. At the mansion he is invited to, he spots a person sneaking in late at night... who turns out to be a beautiful woman. Who is she really?!
Those aiming for a different 
summit always stand alone.
من يسعون لقمّة مختلفة يكونون بمفردهم دوماً
Die auf etwas Höheres zielen,
kämpfen immer für sich allein.
Los que aspiran a una cima diferente
siempre están solos.
Los que aspiran a una cima diferente
siempre están solos.
La solitude attend inéluctablement
ceux qui aspirent au sommet.
Chi punta alla vetta
si ritroverà sempre da solo.
Aqueles que buscam um ápice diferente
dos demais sempre estão sozinhos.
Люди, что стремятся
к иным целям, всегда одни.
