At that moment the room erupted in chaos as Ethan's words echoed, commanding the attention of every soul present. "I house the King of Cobra power," he declared, his voice like thunder. "Now, what nonsense were you spewing about me?"
The Circle members froze, their disbelief palpable. Murmurs rippled through the room, some expressing fear, others confusion.
At that moment the master of the Circle, visibly rattled but attempting to maintain control, clenched his fists. His calm demeanor was about to shattered.
"Enough of this!" he bellowed, his voice sharp and authoritative.
"You claim you have powers, but let's see if they can withstand this!" With a sharp gesture, he barked an order to the armed men. "Fire! Kill him now!"
Immediately the air filled with the deafening roar of gunfire as bullets sped toward Ethan, tearing through the tense silence.
