Chapter 9: Assassination!?
Noah left the 'FashionX' building with a light smile on his face.
Noah asked Gina whether she would like to visit 'Delos Celebration' stalls that are being set up since they are lively and bustling and filled with many tasty snacks that come from all over the world.
Noah was a Prince of an Empire and Gina was the director of 'FashionX' one of the biggest and richest businesses in all the empires so they didn't lack magically enchanted items.
Hence they can only enjoy food and drinks since they don't lack money at all.
Gina refused because she couldn't walk properly after a few more rounds of arduous 'training' and she also had a lot of pending paperwork which was interrupted due to the sudden visit of Noah.
She wanted to go on a date with him but it was not the right time since 'FashionX's sales also goes up exponentially during 'Delos Celebration' and she, as the director has a lot of pending work and preparations to make.
Anyways, Noah decided to visit the stalls with Ares later, so he started moving towards the Palace
But on the way back, he noticed many beautifully decorated carriages were entering the city one by one.
Unlike other nobles and royals, Noah didn't move around in carriages otherwise he would have been given priority during this traffic jam.
Additionally he also never kept guards with himself because if any other [Immortal] sees a bunch of mortals protecting an [Immortal], they might die from laughing hard and then come back to life to laugh again!
But he can't give this excuse to Valentina...
So in order to assure his mother he used his good reputation among the commoners who will not dare to attack him in public coupled with the fact that he was a Prince.
It will be courting death if anyone attacked a 'good' natured prince in his own Delta city where commoners would gladly fight to protect the prince who is 'humble' and someone who cares about the people as well.
Plus Valentina knows that he is strong enough to protect himself since she has seen his Saber skills.
Noah never uses a Saber during practice sessions since unsheathing a Saber means taking a life!
All weapons have their own profundities hidden deep within the nature of the weapon.
Saber is cruel, ruthless, ferocious, and merciless.
He has only unsheathed his Saber once in this life when an Imperial guard came to 'train' him in the art of Sabers 2 years ago.
The next second, his head was rolling on the ground.
Luckily, only Valentina was spectating the executi...*cough* *cough* 'spar' so the matter was shrugged under the rug.
But Valentina has got a taste of Noah's ruthless and profound Saber Intent which she liked very much.
She felt the nature of her son is exactly like her-Merciless, so she didn't feel something out of ordinary, developing Saber intent at such a young age after listening to his profound words over the art of Sabers.
She only thought she has raised a perfect son, warm towards people he likes and cold towards everyone else.
This is true since all the people can die, Kingdoms and Empires can fall but both mother and son won't lift a single finger as long as their loved ones are not targeted.
Anyways, since most streets were jampacked Noah could only take a detour since he doesn't have guards with him to make a way for him.
On the way back he felt a few individuals tailing him...
He calmly moved from one street to another feigning ignorance kiting them towards the slums.
When he felt there were no civilians around he stopped, while a black-colored sheathed Saber appeared on his waist that he took out from his storage ring.
He calmly grabbed the hilt of the Saber and stood there without moving a single muscle of his body.
Noah waited patiently, he was not in a hurry...
"Interesting" a male voice came out of one of the dark corners of the alley.
Four people clothed in black, wearing black masks came out of different corners of the alley surrounding Noah.
One person with a silver mask came from the front speaking in a curious tone "Fascinating!! may I know how did we got discovered, your highness!?"
He was an A-rank practitioner while the other four were B-ranks.
Noah sneered and replied " Haha...How boring! Did you guys just follow me here to know about my detection techniques?"
Noah squinted his eyes since he never felt any killing intent from these people which means...
'someone is probing my capabilities and abilities...which only a few people would do....hmmm...' thought Noah and waited calmly for a response.
It was obvious that the man in the silver mask was the leader.
The leader frowned under his mask deeply still thinking how they got discovered and how Noah knew about their intentions perfectly.....
But-
"Watch Out!!!" The leader shouted to warn the others, seeing Noah taking a step forward towards one of the men.
Purple lightning surged through Noah's entire body and the ground under him started crackling.
Noah used [Lightning Step], an advanced version of [Thunder Step]...
*Slash!*
...And one head flew in the sky while blood spurted out of the neck raining over Noah's body.
*Plop*
Just like that the body of a B-rank practitioner plopped on the ground.
*Thud*
Head of that poor B-rank practitioner dropped on the ground and rolled for a few moments before hitting the foot of another B-rank practitioner.
All the remaining three B-rank practitioners felt a cold chill pass through their spines and hairs on the back of their neck stood up giving them countless goosebumps.
A D-rank killing a B-rank this quickly is completely unheard of unless the disparity in their techniques and [Element] is just too high...
They felt like countless centipedes were crawling over their body prickling on their skin...
