That deep, growling voice seemed to bring up an instinctual fear into him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt like he was transported into the primeval era. And he was standing right in front of a monstrous beast, just a short distance away from its disastrous maws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if he moved even a single bit, the monster would bite down on his chewy carcass and swallow him whole.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This instinctual fear seemed to not just be a mental problem. But a physical one as well. The Artifice in his chest refused to supplement his legs with any Aubility Power. It was shaken and traumatized by that voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jaku, on the other hand, simply shrugged at his own feat. He didn't know how he did that, but he sure as hell was going to take advantage of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pointed at the soldier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And suddenly, ten Mini Drones manifested into the air. The small cannons on their underside glowed with prismatic power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the soldier could even plead for his life, the drones shot their Unity Guns directly into the man's torso and one into his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Death was instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jaku didn't take a second look at the smoking corpse and walked towards the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't care about sharpening his sword skill like some honorable samurai. As long as the job was done at the fastest time possible, then he was fine with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He just wanted to sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, he walked through the ornate doors and found himself inside one of the Stronghold's treasure rooms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Umisu found herself in a similar situation as Jaku. She and a couple of other Orcs took the right side of the castle, intending to reach the unmapped treasure room there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And even though most, if not all, of the soldiers were outside fighting the Shadow Orcs, Umisu was still checking the corners to see if there was anyone still there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She nervously peeked through the tunnels. And once she found it unoccupied, then she walked ahead with the Shadow Orcs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was only a 3rd stage Body Formation Maugnetic, after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her only job in this invasion was to act as a distraction. She would take the attention of the guard stationed at the treasure room, and let the Mini Drones bombard him with Unity Guns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, her job was done. All she had to do then was to find the treasure room and hope that the stolen Key was there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please tell me it's not there,\" she muttered to herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As selfish as it may seem, she didn't want to find the Key. If she was the one who found it, she'd have an additional mission to protect it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please tell me the guard isn't there…,\" she prayed. \"Please tell me the guard isn't there…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unbeknownst to her, they finally reached the last tunnel leading to the treasure room while she was in the middle of this chant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who goes there?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"!!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Completely taken by surprise, Umisu felt her heart stop for a second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kyaaaaa!\" she screamed, completely taking the 7th stage guard by surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Woah, woah, settle down!\" the guard said, plugging his ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Somehow, the situation between them became completely reversed. Umisu was supposed to be the one trying to silence the guard from shouting and alerting the other soldiers!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet now, the soldier was the one feeling as if he was the one who did wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you aren't going to stop, then I'll have to silence your head!\" he said, taking out his falcata sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mist emanated out of the soldier's head, forming the image of a metal-like hippopotamus frankenstein monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The appearance of his 7th stage Aubility Power created a shockwave of aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But strangely enough, Umisu remained unbothered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was still screaming, holding her chest as if she was in pain… or holding something back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unnerved, the soldier raised his falcata and attacked Umisu. His body disappeared, only to reappear directly in front of the screaming demi-human.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get away from me!\" she screamed, pushing her hands forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This looked accidental. She wasn't even paying attention to the Ersatz soldier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, it affected him nonetheless. The high-pitched shriek rang through his brain, completely disrupting his train of thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like his brain short-circuited. He couldn't think. And most of all, his body couldn't think.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This included the Artifice in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The soldier, with his mental still unstable, forcefully continued his swing towards Umisu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His sword swung through the air, before he felt a great resistance stop its momentum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked down, seeing a green spear shaft clashing against the blade of his falcata.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His 7th stage Aubility Power was being rebuffed by a 3rd stage Maugnetic?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with his mental state staggered, he knew that this didn't make sense at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then he noticed. His arms felt normal. The Aubility Power threads that imbued his physical body with an immense amount of strength equal to that of a hippopotamus, was completely gone!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't access his greatest Aubility!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get away!\" Umisu screamed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She swung her spear with great force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The soldier tried to defend, but found his falcata slipping away from his fingers as if he had the grip of a baby!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And before he could even understand what happened, he felt the force of nature strike him directly in his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He flew backwards, hitting the ornate wooden door behind him and causing it to crack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dizzy, the soldier looked up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw ten sparkling lights hovering above him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He raised his hand to defend, but realized that his sword had already slipped away from his fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could say anything more, the Mini Drones unleashed their Unity Guns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Prismatic beams shot through his body, killing him instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Umisu opened her eyes cautiously, wary that the danger was not over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was. The corpse was still smoking from all the burned holes in its body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Omg! That was lucky…,\" she said, heaving a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, the Shadow Orcs behind her shivered in fear. They vowed then and there that they would never be on the bad side of Miss Umisu.\u003C\u002Fp>",1043,"2026-05-28T18:43:31.831Z","2026-06-01T04:28:40.908Z",1,"novelbin.me","a47ee1e6971a9d1e38942f3dbcde6fbc887fae095ed7d7a1b4aeb9e5071c938b","reborn-as-the-genius-son-of-the-richest-family-chapter-993","reborn-as-the-genius-son-of-the-richest-family-chapter-991",1164,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-as-the-genius-son-of-the-richest-family-cover.jpg"]
