Gabriel walks up to Cenric, looking down at him with distain. He tries to attack Gabriel with careless strikes but Gabriel easily maneuvers around them.
Gabriel: Just stop. You're literally powerless right now. I could kill you at anytime.
Cenric: Then do it if you're so confident!
He bites down on Gabriel's leg, drinking some of his blood to try and gain his power. Nothing happens. Gabriel kicks Cenric off of him.
Gabriel: Let's have a talk. This talk is the only thing that's keeping me from ending your life right now.
He creates a seat for Cenric and himself. Reluctantly, Cenric sits down.
Gabriel: Good. Now, why did you join the tournament?
Cenric: I'm not interested in your small talk—
With a wave of Gabriel's hand, the seat cuts off Cenric's foot.
Gabriel: Answer the question.
Cenric: ...The founder made me do it, obviously. But when I got that wish, I was gonna free myself from him.
