Levi's eyes narrowed as John's mocking words echoed in his mind. He could feel the anger rising within him, but instead of letting it consume him, he began to laugh.
John and his bodyguards looked at Levi in confusion as he laughed uncontrollably. "What's so funny?" John demanded, his face contorted with anger.
Levi finally managed to calm himself down and wiped away the tears that had formed in his eyes. "You really think that I'm afraid of you?" he said, still chuckling. "You and your little gang of thugs? You're nothing compared to me."
John's face turned red with fury as he watched Levi laugh off his insults. He had never encountered someone who could be so disrespectful and dismissive of his power and authority.
"You dare to laugh at me?" he bellowed, his voice booming across the clearing. "You are nothing but a worthless piece of trash!"
