Sarah got an idea and tapped her earpiece.

”Eve, turn on my lenses.”, Sarah spoke softly.

Her vision flickered few times before it stabilized. Everything looked normal, except for additional information that was visible only to her: 'Operational: 100%, select your options…'

Sarah extended her hand in front of her and made tapping motion which landed on 'options…' which expanded to: 'environment information, living creatures, vision type, vision sharing…' She tapped on 'living creatures' and it expanded to: 'all, humans only…' , Sarah tapped on 'humans only' and information was shown: 'In visible range: 162 people, in 5 m radius: 11 people… close proximity without obstacles: 5 people…'

Sarah started going through vision types and experimented with x-ray, and heat sources. It was fun to look at bunch of bones moving around and different hues of red and orange, but it didn't make any sense in this big crowd.

A man with microphone just outside caged arena announced the beginning of the fight, and the crowd fell silent.

Sarah switched to normal vision and zoomed in to two men inside arena who are eyeing each other.

Both have large builds, and their muscular tops are exposed.

Two fighters circled around edges of the arena slowly while gauging the perfect moment to strike, and Sarah used this as an opportunity to play with zoom levels. She was pleased that she can see their scars clearly. Oh, this Eve-vision is wonderful! She zoomed out enough to be able to follow the fight like she is standing in the front rows of audience.

Fight with no rules. Ends when one can't continue fighting or admits a defeat. Exciting.

As the tension between men increased, Sarah inhaled. In a split second they leaped toward each other, and the man with longer blonde hair scored a clean hit with his elbow to the other man's jaw, and the fight was over. Sarah released the breath she was holding. That was… disappointing.

After a second of silence, crowd erupted in cheers and screams, and the original chaos was restored.

Three men entered the cage. Two dragged out unconscious poor loser-guy, while third one held a microphone and his voice boomed over the screams: ”Aaaaand this is the seventh consecutive win for powerful RHINO! Ladies and gentlemen, for those of you who placed bets on Rhino, this is a good time to go and collect your winnings! He needs three more wins and he gets the right to challenge any of our four champions and score some big prizes!”

The man gestured toward the top, and large screens hanging up in the air above arena displayed large names:

'2. Shift

3. Jade

4. Amber

5. Blackstain'

The crowd's screams intensified.

Sarah frowned slightly when she concluded based on this that Shift, Jade and Amber are some type of fighting champions in this underground arena. So, this glass enclosure is something like seating for top fighters… but why is #1 spot form that list missing? And who is Blackstain?

The man with the microphone waved his hands for crowd to calm down before continued: ”Aaaaaand if Rhino manages to win against two of our exquisite champions, he gets to challenge our untouchable, undefeated…” He gestured up toward the screens, where big letters flashed:
