Hollywood Zenith

" ROSALINE! COME OUT! LOOK HOW I MESS UP YOUR BOY TOY!" He roared.

Her whole family came out, hearing the commotion. Just when they thought the trouble had passed, another one took its place. They saw that the earlier guest was surrounded by gang members.

" Wow, the whole family is here. Mother-in-law, you are shameless setting up your daughter with someone else when I am here."

" Don't talk to my wife with your filthy mouth!" The man roared.

" So scary~; Man, Rick still has some rigour. Rosa! Hermosa, Your husband is here; don't you welcome me." His accent began to show as he was excited about the redhead's beauty.

" Ah, noisy. Can't you sort it out among yourself? Why are you blocking our way?" Samuel obstructed his power trip moment. He was still casual, but Darren was beginning to sweat a little.

" This twirp!" The boss was enraged. Suddenly someone came forward and whispered a few words in his ears, it was a short conversation, but the boss couldn't hide his surprised face.

" Oh, I now understand why this bitch is being so brazen in front of me. I didn't think I would meet a Rothschild in these parts of the town. What an honour!" He was amused. Does he think he could take his woman because he belongs to a wealthy family? Dream on! Today he would teach these brats the rule of the jungle!

" Honor my ass! Why are they letting trash roam around the city? I can't believe I will make a mess as soon as I arrive here." Samuel sighed. He said it in a low voice, but everyone heard him. Such blatant disrespect!

" Shee, why are you egging them on? There are more than twenty of them!" Darren didn't know why he was making the situation worse.

In front of the store, Rosaline also felt the same. She knew more than anyone how vicious these guys were. Their boss was pursuing her relentlessly for months. Every man who tried to get close to her were beaten by him; some of them were also from a wealthy family.

" Keke, the boss let me punch a few holes; the bitch's car was not enough entertainment for me." Another underlying knowing that the brat was finished. It was not like they would outright kill him but making him disabled would be enough.

As soon as Samuel heard it, he vanished and reappeared in front of the man who wanted to poke some holes. It happened instantly before anyone could react; Samuel was seen lifting the man by his neck.

" Do you say you hurt my 'Sparky'?" Samuel increased the pressure on his neck just enough to make him scream.

" Arghhh, Who....is.....S.Sparky? Boss...s..save...me" He struggled but uttered a few words.

" You-you, Who are you?" the boss was utterly confused. He thought his eyes were playing tricks on him. There were more than ten feet between them; how could anyone cover it in a blink of an eye?

" Me? Why didn't you start with that?" Samuel threw him, and the poor man landed a few feets without even knowing he broke a few more bones, but somehow he was still alive.

" Fuck!" He pulled out his sidearm and instructed everyone to do the same. Twenty-odd guns were pointed at him, but Samuel didn't care; he began walking back as the mobster couldn't help to make way for him.

" Rosa, bring me a chair. I have decided I will exterminate these pests." His voice was neither loud nor low, but hearing the authoritative tone, Rosaline's body moved independently.

" It's alright." Rick also gave her permission. It was feeling, but he knew nothing would happen if they didn't make an enemy out of him.

" Die, you motherfucker!" The underlying that Samuel threw earlier still had some fight left in him. He unhesitantly pulled out his firearm and began pulling the trigger. But no matter how much he tried, the gun didn't fire; it seemed jammed.

" Fuck this!" He shook it a little bit and tried again. Today, he swore to kill this motherfucker!

*BOOM*

" MY HAND! ARGHH!"

By some stroke of luck, the gun backfired and exploded, taking his few fingers in the process. He let out a guttural scream experiencing excruciating pain.

" Hehe, I guess my luck is good today." Samuel laughed. What kind of maniac they ended up offending? It looked like some miracle for everyone, but it was Samuel's elemental magic; he heated up the cartridge and made it explode.

By now, Rosaline was out dragging an armchair, she didn't know what happened, but seeing everyone's dumbfounded reaction, it seemed like she missed a good show.

Hearing the gunshot, some brave onlookers also informed the authorities but were unsure if the cops would come here. It was well-known that this area was under this silver group where authorities were hesitant to interfere.

Samuel casually sat down with his fist supporting his head; like a king that looked over his subject with noble eyes, he sat down to make the final judgement.

" What? Not going to come at me now? Too bad it's too late for you. Now, I will show you something even more interesting."

" Shit! What the fuck happened to Sami? Why is he behaving like a madman?" Darren, who was witnessing everything, was bewildered by his friend's change. Sami used to be a kind and compassionate kid when he first met him, but all he could see now were his cold eyes that lacked any sense of warmth.

"*Gulp* Boss, what should we do?" one underling asked. It was only one guy, but somehow they were terrified of him.

" Fuck! Kill him! I will take care of everything." The boss made his decision. The fallout would be immense, but he would go underground until the dust settled.

" Wait! What's the rush? Don't you want to see a cool magic trick?" Samuel pointed two fingers and mimicked a gun with one hand.

" What are you waiting for, boss? He is completely deranged! " the underlying urged. They were waiting for his orders.

Samuel singled out the same person and took aim with his 'fake' gun. A gunshot was heard as soon as he pressed his thumb, and the person in question fell down while holding his lead. A successful shot!

" See? It's cool, right?" He blew the tip of his finger. Was he really a magician?
