Hollywood Zenith

I could hear the kid berating Hannah while the two people who seemed like bodyguards watched from the side. Hannah seemed oblivious as the kid was speaking a foreign language.

As I got closer, I saw that Hannah had scraped her knee. I quickly made my way toward her.

" What is happened here?" I asked loudly, which made them notice me.

" Who the hell are you? Are you related to this mute?" the kid asked; his tone was condescending, which didn't sit right with me. I looked around, analyzing the situation. I lean over to her side to ask about it.

" Are you alright? Let me see." I pulled her leg to measure the damage.

" I-i am an f-fine brother. It is only a scratch. Ouch!" She replied, but I could see her grimace as I touched the spot around the scratch.

" Are you ignoring me? Do you know who I am?" Kid asked frustratingly. The two men beside him were impatient too.

" Young mi-master, Please calm down. It was our fault; we are sorry for negligence." one of them said while doing a full ninety-degree bow; the other man followed suit to appeal to the kid.

" Shut up! I told you countless times to listen to me! I have been calling you for a whole minute, WHOLE MINUTE! I am not paying you to sit around on your butt all day!"

" T-that, I am so sorry young master."

" P-please forgive us!"

" And you bitch! Where did you come from? Can- " I slapped him before he could finish, he had been spewing nonsense since I arrived here, and he hurt Hannah, which was a severe offence.

" Y-you, How d-dare-" I slapped him again.

It went on a couple of times, He tried a few more times, but I would stop him with another hit every time. His bodyguard was speechless; they couldn't react to what was happening before their eyes.

" B-brother, don't do it. It was my fault." I could hear Hannah's plea, but that didn't justify the violence. I started toward her, which shut her up.

They finally reacted, seeing their master lying on the ground holding his cheeks. His face was red with a visible handprint on both sides. From his expression, he was still processing what had happened.

" Y-you, How dare you raise your hand on young master!"

" Are you looking for death?"

They took fighting stances; I must have spooked them due to my swiftness earlier. It may be a tough fight as I don't have the element of surprise like what I had earlier. But It is doable.

" STOP!" the kid shouted.

" Young master, let me teach him a lesson."

" Yeah, younglings don't know who to not mess with these days."

" I said stop. Didn't you hear me?"

" But, young-"

" Move! As one of the heirs of Oya-kai, I will deal with this pest myself." He roared, but it sounded funny because of his high-pitched voice. Children have such a voice, but his was especially prominent in that department.

" As you wish, young master." His bodyguard could not defy his orders as they made way for the kid.

" You, bitch! State your name! I will give you a good beating." He declared while observing me.

I could not care less about this child's play; I was checking on Hannah to see the damage to her knee; fortunately, it was a minor scratch with some blood.

" Are you still ignoring me? I, Ai-Akihiko Kiyama, challenge you to the duel !"

" He is done for! No one of master's age could beat the young master in close combat."

" Master is an unparalleled genius who has already defeated several adult fighters."

" Yes, yes, he sneaked attacked earlier, such despicable moves! Master will surely teach you a harsh lesson."

His bodyguard was hyping him up while he bobbed his head, hearing praises. His smug expression already gave away his inner thoughts.

" That was a nice play. Are you done? I don't have time to entertain your delusions." I said as I proceeded to leave the scene. Hannah would need some medicine to not get any infections or scars.

" Are you scared? I might let you go if you admit defeat or kneel down." He said nonchalantly with a slight smirk. I knew he was provoking me, but it seemed like he had to repent and learn from his mistakes. I don't want to deal with spoiled kids, but this one has one coming for him.

" Ok, ok, You want to play, let's play. But you must apologize to my sister for causing her harm if you lose. Deal?" I said as I motioned an angle, a whole ninety-degree bow, which you make when you want to give your complete respect to someone.

" Nonsense! you want to make our young mi-master bow down to you,"

" Our family bows to no one!" the guards shouted at my proposal. Honestly, it was a lax punishment for hurting my sister, but I noticed they had been going on and on about their family. I looked toward the princess, who had been silent for the most part.

" They would be shocked to know they have been parading their family in front of the ONLY royal family in the country." I shook my head as I imagined their reaction.

" Calm down! Do you think I would lose? I accept your condition. Now, get ready to taste dirt!" He ran toward me, Albert slowly, maintaining a strange posture.

" Brother!"

Princess stoked Hannah's shoulder to stop her from standing up. She nodded her head sideways to stop her movement.

" Don't you trust your brother? Stay put for a second. It will be over soon." I said.

I motioned Princess and Hannah to move to the side while I rushed toward the kid. Although he seemed chubby at a glance, surprisingly, he had nimble feet.

" He must practice some sort of martial arts. His guard also mentioned it before. I need to gauze his potential first."

I could end it with a single strike if I used my magic titles, but that would be anti-climactic and raise questions in the other party's head.

I took a standard stance; this time, I went with the Krav Maga stance. One leg is forward with both hands raised, while the other leg provides support and power. I also learned several fighting styles but I needed practice and harmony to control my power.

But with this one, I had already achieved some synergy, and it was perfectly suited to disarming, disabling, and destroying your enemies.

I took a slight jab at him, it was a quick punch, but he blocked it splendidly.

" So, it was not all talk," I said with a smile, to which he also smiled, but I could see him observing me closely.

He attacked with a right punch immediately, followed by a strong left from below. I reacted quickly to block both of them; the first was definitely a feint to throw off my centre of gravity. He clearly wanted to take advantage of the fact that he was left-handed.

" You blocked it? not bad; I guess I could get serious then." His eyes shone with a light glint while simultaneously he changed his stance to move his body sideways. I could see that he was ready to unleash a fury of attack, but too bad for him.

" He is good, but he lacks power." I thought. Suddenly, I moved quickly to his left; I could see him following my movement, but I made a solid right punch to his side, to which he squeezed his body to block his vital organs, but I followed with an uppercut with my left hand.

I display relatively the same power with both hands, which threw him off. He tried to counterattack with a slightly delayed response, but I shut him down with a wrist lock followed by an over-the-shoulder takedown. It was a strange angle for a takedown, as it was hard to display the needed power, but I had all the strength I needed.

He was heavy, but I managed to execute it successfully. I could see that he was still struggling to get up, probably due to the left punch earlier.

I got up while our audience stayed silent. His guards stood with agape expressions, detached from reality and struggling to grasp the result. While Hannah looked relieved that I was fine, the princess didn't react much.

" Do you trust me that much?" I looked at the princess with an amused expression, to which she stared back with a smile.

The bodyguards reacted as they moved toward me; I saw vengeance in their eyes. But I heard a few rustling behind me. Someone was approaching fast in our direction.

" Took you long enough," I muttered, to which the two reacted; they blocked the two guards' attack simultaneously.

" Young master! What are you doing here? Who are these people? Why are they attacking you?" Oscar moved, subduing the attacker while asking questions with every strike. Karoline took care of the other one.

We stood beside the three perpetrators lying on the ground groaning in pain. Oscar and Karoline stared at me as they waited for answers.

" So?" Oscar asked.

" So? Well, one thing led to another, and we fought." I shrugged. I myself was not sure about the reason yet. I wanted to ask Hannah when I heard a shout from the back.

" YOUNG MISS!"

We turned to look at the approaching people. They had a similar atmosphere to kids' bodyguards.

" Great! another one appeared. When can we get some peace around here." I facepalmed in my mind.
