Reborn As Noble

Chapter 202 Predator and Prey ( 202 )

The chains that had bound him glowed brightly for a moment before shattering like fragile glass, falling uselessly to the ground.

The robed figures froze in shock. ”W-what!?”

Javier stretched lazily, rolling his neck with a crack. ”You went through all this trouble just for me? How touching. But now... letʼs begin.”

He raised his hand, and the air around him grew dense as a massive gravitational force exploded outward. ”Super Gravity!”

The ground trembled violently as the robed figures were slammed down, their bodies pinned mercilessly to the arena floor. Some groaned in pain, while others struggled to move, but none could stand under the immense pressure.

Liana and Gloria, stared in awe.

”Young Master...” Liana whispered, relief and astonishment on her face.

”Ara~ Looks like heʼs finally showing his true colors,” Gloria murmured, her smirk growing wider as she tightened her grip on her blades.

Javierʼs eyes glowed faintly, a mischievous glint in them as he scanned the struggling attackers. ”You wanted to kill me? I hope youʼre ready, because now itʼs my turn.”

He cracked his knuckles, stepping forward with a predatory grin. ”Letʼs see how long you can last.”

”Gyahahahaha!” Javierʼs laughter echoed through the empty arena as he dashed toward one of the pinned robed figures. ”Now taste my kick!”

Javierʼs foot landed repeatedly on the attacker, each kick sending vibrations through the ground. The robed figure let out a muffled groan but couldnʼt move under the immense gravity.

”Oh, come on!” Javier jeered, tilting his head mockingly as he stood over his victim. ”I thought you were better than those noble kids I fought earlier. Show me what youʼve got!”

His eyes sparkled with mischief as he crouched near another attacker, grabbing their weapon—a dagger—from their immobilized hand and holding it out toward them.

”Here,” he said with a grin, waving the dagger mockingly. ”Take it back! You wanted to kill me, right? Howʼre you gonna do that without your weapon?”

The figureʼs arm twitched feebly, but the overwhelming gravity kept them glued to the ground.

”Ehhh? Still canʼt move?” Javier stood up, scratching his head theatrically. ”Thatʼs disappointing... I didnʼt even use my full power yet.”

He tapped his chin in mock thought. ”Hmm... maybe Iʼm only at 10% right now? What do you think, Gloria?”

”Ara~ I think youʼre being generous, Young Master,” Gloria teased from the sidelines, amusement lacing her voice.

”Young Master,” Liana called, half-scolding. ”Please donʼt play with them too much.”

”Haaa, fine, fine,” Javier muttered, rolling his eyes. He turned back to the struggling attackers, his grin widening. ”But seriously, how did you guys even think you could kill me? This is embarrassing for you.”

He kicked another weapon toward a different figure, laughing as they tried and failed to reach for it. ”Here, Iʼll even help you out. Oh? You still canʼt move? How pity. Kekekeke!”

The robed figures, bound by the crushing gravity and Javierʼs mocking gaze, could do nothing but endure the torment as he gleefully toyed with them.

”Hyaaaaarrhhh!” Javier exclaimed dramatically, raising his arms as if addressing an imaginary crowd. ”Come on, guys! Iʼve been waiting since day one for you to make a move! Donʼt disappoint me now—I know you can do better!”

”Ehehehe... canʼt let all the fun be mine!” Javier called out, his mischievous grin widening as he waved toward the bench. ”Lianaaaa... Gloriaaaa... come hereee...!”

Liana stepped closely, her eyes glinting with focus as she drew her blades. Gloria followed , smirking as she tightened her grip on her weapons.

”Better act fast,” Javier teased the immobilized attackers, gesturing toward Liana and Gloria. ”It looks like Lianaʼs ready to show off those twin blades. And Gloria?” He glanced at her sidelong, chuckling. ”Oh no, sheʼs scarrrrry when she glances like that! Kekekeke!”

With his maids by his side, the mood shifted from mockery to a synchronized display of skill and precision. The robed figures watched helplessly as their worst nightmare unfolded.

”Hey, robe guy...” Javier crouched next to one of the immobilized attackers, tilting his head mockingly. ”Come on... move a bit, will you?”

The assassin glared at Javier, eyes filled with rage but unable to muster the strength to respond.

”Oh, let me help you up,” Javier said with fake kindness, reaching for the assassinʼs collar.

With effortless motion, Javier lifted the man off the ground by his collar, holding him in midair like a rag doll. The assassinʼs legs dangled uselessly, his struggles futile against Javierʼs overwhelming strength.

”Up you go...” Javier smirked before slamming the man into the ground with terrifying force.

Thud!

The ground cracked under the impact, and the assassin lay motionless, his life extinguished in an instant.

”One down!” Javier announced with a maniacal laugh. ”Ohhh!! Come on, guys!” he said, turning to the remaining assassins with his arms outstretched theatrically. ”You all came here to kill me, right? Donʼt just stand there! Here!”

He puffed his chest, leaning forward slightly in a mocking gesture. ”Here, Iʼll give you a chance—”

He paused, his eyes widening slightly in fake realization. ”Oh wait, I forgot... none of you can move!”

Javier erupted into laughter, his voice echoing ominously in the silent arena. ”Gyahahahaha!!”

The assassins, still pinned under the crushing weight of Javierʼs Super Gravity skill, could only watch in terror, their bodies trembling under the immense pressure.

”Hyaaarrrrr!!!” he shouted gleefully, hands on his hips. ”Hey, you guys are supposed to be highly skilled assassinnnnnnnnsss!”

”Cuquawk!!”

Javier turned to see Buddy and Pikko stomping toward the arena, their powerful legs shaking the ground with every step.

”Ah, sorry, Buddy! Pikko!” Javier called out with a mischievous grin. ”You can join us too! Crush their heads!!”

The two massive pekko squawked in excitement, their sharp claws digging into the ground as they stomped closer to the pinned assassins.

”Let none live. I bet theyʼve already killed a lot of innocent people before, right?” Javier said, his mocking gaze landing on the leader of the robed group.

The leader gritted his teeth, fear evident by the sweat dripping down his face.

”Young Master,” Liana interrupted, her voice calm but cautious. ”Should we leave one alive for interrogation?”

Javier shrugged nonchalantly, his grin never faltering. ”No need. They donʼt deserve that chance. Itʼs not like I care who sent them anyway.”

He crouched down in front of the leader, tilting his head mockingly. ”Hey, robe man. You couldʼve chosen honest work, earned money without shedding innocent blood. Yet here you are, trying to kill me.”

The assassins, once hunters, now lay as helpless prey, pinned to the ground and unable to fight back.

”Buddy! Pikko!” Javier called out, standing tall and gesturing dramatically toward the helpless assassins. ”Do your thing!”

The two pekko let out triumphant squawks, stomping toward the robed figures with dangerous glee.

Liana and Gloria exchanged glances.

”You heard him,” Gloria said with a wicked smirk, lifting her hammer. ”Letʼs finish this.”

”Understood, Young Master,” Liana replied, drawing her bow and aiming at the nearest assassin.

”So... whoʼs next?” he asked, his grin sharp and filled with mischief as he cracked his knuckles. ”Come on, entertain me a little before I get bored again!”

”Oh, how about you?!” Javierʼs eyes gleamed with excitement as he pointed at one of the assassins. With a flick of his wrist, he lifted the gravity spell on the chosen attacker, allowing them to move.

The assassin stumbled briefly but quickly regained balance. Without hesitation, they dashed toward Javier, weapon in hand, aiming for a fatal strike.

Javier stood still, hands in his pockets, watching the assassin approach with a bored expression. Just as the weapon came close, he casually stepped to the side, evading the attack with ease.

”Aw, come on!” Javier taunted, shaking his head. ”The brat from Brabus was faster than you! ”

The assassin growled in frustration and swung their weapon again, but Javier ducked, spinning around them with a laugh. ”Really? Thatʼs all youʼve got?”

Javier sighed dramatically. ”Well... whatever...” He raised his hand, smirking. ”Vines Rope... binding! Ehehehe.”

Green magical vines burst from the ground, wrapping around the assassin with astounding speed. The attacker struggled violently, but the vines tightened their hold, constricting them further.

”Looks like itʼs game over for you,” Javier said, his tone almost sing-song as he watched the life drain from the assassinʼs eyes. The binding grew tighter, squeezing any remaining resistance from the attacker until they slumped motionless.
