CESTVS: The Roman Fighter
Cestvs tritt zu seinem ersten Kampf in der Sklaven-Gladiatorenschule an. Dort steht er seinem ersten Gegner und besten Freund gegenüber, doch diesen tötet er ohne zu zögern und entscheidet den Kampf für sich. Denn laut seinem Ausbilder Zafar haben Verlierer keine Zukunft. Mit jedem Kampf nehmen seine Trauer und Wut überhand und er steht nicht länger nur mächtigen Gegnern gegenüber, sondern auch dem fünften Kaiser des römischen Reiches namens Nero. Kann der unfreie Cestvs seine Zukunft in die eigene Hand nehmen?!

Fighting Slave Cestvs
As Nero was being crowned emperor of the Roman Empire at the tender age of 17, Cestvs the slave was fighting in a boxing match in order to become a fighting slave. However, the moment he defeats his friend from the training school, countless arrows strike his friend in the back. Defeat means death... Cestvs is terrified to learn the cruel fate of fighting slaves. He is promised his freedom if he wins one hundred matches, but the path to freedom is long. A competition between training schools sponsored by the emperor is to be held in Rome, and Cestvs steps onto the big stage.

Episode 3
Sabina, daughter of a wealthy family of Pompeii, orders Cestvs to fight some thugs in the city. After realizing his own powerlessness, he asks Zafar to teach him how to throw a single knockout punch. Sabina offers to purchase Cestvs, but he rejects her offer, saying he wants to buy himself back on his own. Offended by his rejection, Sabina instructs Emden to thoroughly beat him in a boxing match. Emden agrees. He and Sabina have made a promise that will be fulfilled once he completes his undefeated record.

Bis zum Morgen überleben
Der Tag des Kampfes in der Arena ist gekommen. Cestus muss gegen den ungeschlagenen Champion Pompejis antreten: Den Bluthund Emden. Dieser hat den Auftrag, Cestus zum Krüppel zu schlagen. Und dieser hat der Unerbittlichkeit nur wenig entgegenzusetzen.

Episode 6
In the midst of desperation, Cestvs takes a chance on a one-in-a-million punch. His punch is effective, and he achieves victory over Emden. The mob calls for Emden's death, but Sabina convinces them to settle down. She then tells Emden that this is goodbye. The victor secures his survival only once he has shattered the hope of his opponent with his own fists... The victory weighs heavily on Cestvs. Meanwhile, Zafar finds it odd that both Emden's special technique and the technique he taught Cestvs have the same goal as well as name and goes to visit Emden. What truth will be revealed there?
07
Caged Screams
Due to their lack of decisive power, Zafar instructs Cestvs and his companions to train all day every day by digging with pickaxes. Though his companions complain, Cestvs regards Zafar's word as his only ray of hope and continues digging. Meanwhile, a pair of messengers arrive to announce a fighting tournament held by the emperor. Emperor Nero himself has ordered that Cestvs participate. He seems to be unable to escape him... With indescribable uncertainty in his heart, Cestvs participates in the qualifier in order to win his freedom. However, the arena is a wooden structure resembling a run-down cage.

Episode 9
The final fight of the qualifier for the tournament has begun. Cestvs' opponent is Felix the professional gladiator, also known as the Red Storm. Felix is confident, repeatedly throwing what appear to be wide swings and calling Cestvs a sucker, as he is well-versed in fighting in cramped arenas. Cestvs attempts to focus on reading his opponent's attacks, but he suffers damage as he takes blow after blow. Meanwhile, Felix doesn't miss the change in Cestvs and demonstrates the true strength of the Red Storm.

A close-range fight forces Cestvs up against the wall. Not only does he have nowhere to run, but Cestvs unfortunately injured his ankle when Felix's powerful blows forced him to the ground. "If I can't retreat, then I'll counterattack here!" His efforts appear ineffective as he barely evades Felix's tempestuous blows, waiting for an opportunity to strike back. "No matter how big my disadvantage, as long as there's something I can do, I won't give up!" Just then, Felix's attacks begin to change, and Cestvs finds his golden opportunity.
