At that moment, Benjamin stood beside her, captivated by her presence. For some reason, he felt that Olivia seemed so innocent, like a small child, unconcerned with the world’s troubles.

“Olivia, you have a truly beautiful smile!”

Benjamin’s sudden comment caused Olivia’s smile to freeze. She then looked at him with a hint of sparkle in her eyes.

“Really?”

Olivia’s voice was barely a whisper, but Benjamin heard her clearly.

“Absolutely!”

“Uh-huh!”

As Benjamin responded, Olivia’s lips descended, stopping briefly on his face.

“Thank you!”

Leaving in a state of emotional disarray, Benjamin couldn’t comprehend how he managed to leave Olivia’s house. But just as he was about to enter his bedroom, Isabella’s voice rang out from behind him.

“Benjamin, where have you been?!”

Hearing her voice, Benjamin’s heart skipped a beat, and he nearly jumped out of his skin.

Indeed, Isabella’s behavior had been quite strange these past few days. Moreover, her recent movements had yet to make a single sou

Olivia said, trying to comfort him as she saw Benjamin holding his father's ashes, lost in thought.However, Benjamin's mood was terrible, and he didn't respond to her words.When he first received the news of his father's death from the hospital, Benjamin didn't want to reveal it to anyone. After all, he had no other close relatives apart from his father and sister. As a result, the funeral was somewhat lonely, with no visitors.At this moment, Benjamin glanced toward his sister's hospital room. For some reason, she had suddenly woken up early that morning and asked about their father's whereabouts.At that moment, Benjamin felt extraord

    Fortunately, Benjamin managed to react. He exerted all his strength, kicked the car door open, and jumped into the roadside ditch, holding Olivia tightly.Boom!A loud explosion sounded as Benjamin's car went up in flames, with black smoke filling the air, causing Olivia to cough a few times.But Benjamin's eyes were filled with a cold stare, looking at the fire engulfing his father's ashes."Benjamin, what are you going to do?"Seeing Benjamin leaping toward the burning car, Olivia was shocked and called out anxiously.However, before Benjamin could respond, two masked men with handguns jumped out of the semi-truck and surrounded him.Seeing this scene, Olivia's face turned pale, and her eyes filled with worry as she looked at Benjamin.But Benjamin's expression remained remarkably calm. He stared intently at the two masked men before him, his voice cold."Tell me, who sent you here to kill me?!"Seeing Benjamin's reaction, the two masked men were slightly surprised. Then, one of the

    "Benjamin, people in the countryside are so warm-hearted, much more lovely than city folks!" Olivia said as she looked back at the truck.Hearing her, Benjamin smiled. He then led Olivia to his old family home, where he and his father had lived for many years.Upon reaching the entrance, memories of familiar scenes from years ago flooded Benjamin's heart."Mr. Black Dude, are you bringing your girlfriend home?"Suddenly, an unfamiliar yet somewhat familiar voice rang out, startling Benjamin as he turned around.At the end of the alley, he saw a skinny, dark-skinned boy around sixteen or seventeen years old. Benjamin feared that a gust of wind could blow him away.However, seeing the boy's curious gaze, Benjamin responded with a smile."Rowan, you still remember me, huh?"Benjamin recalled his last visit home, which was several years ago. At that time, he had just completed a year of military service and was on leave. During that visit, Rowan was only about ten or eleven years old.Alt

    Everyone knew that Benjamin rarely asked for help from others. Once he did, the matter would be a challenging one. However, this was ideally suited to Venn's personality."It's not serious, but let's not discuss it now. Currently, I need you to help me contact Curtis. I have some matters to discuss with him.""What?!"Hearing Benjamin's sudden request, Venn was momentarily stunned. Immediately afterward, Benjamin noticed something was off, and his gaze became more focused as he looked at Venn."What's going on? What is Curtis doing and where is he now?""About that..."Faced with Benjamin's persistent questioning, Venn's expression became increasingly flustered. Nevertheless, Benjamin didn't press further. Instead, he suddenly changed the subject."Alright, let me know when you've contacted Curtis. I've changed my phone number, so give me yours, and I'll give you a missed call for you to save my number."Hearing this, Venn didn't hesitate and nodded in agreement. After leaving Venn's p

    "Benjamin, are you alright?"Sitting in the room, Olivia noticed Benjamin looking somewhat lost as he entered from outside. She couldn't help but worry and looked at him.At that moment, Benjamin tried to muster what he thought was a natural smile and responded to Olivia."I'm fine, just feeling a bit unwell. It's late now, and you should rest. I want to go to my room and think for a while."Benjamin didn't linger and quickly walked into his bedroom.Olivia's gaze followed his retreating figure, her thoughts stirring. However, she didn't dwell on it any longer and slowly walked towards her bedroom next to Benjamin's."Ah..."Lying on his bed, Benjamin sighed and put his hands behind his head. In truth, Ximena didn't want him to be her real boyfriend, but only to help her act for class reunion tomorrow.Initially, Benjamin hadn't planned to agree.

    "Boss, are you there? Come outside for a bit, I need to see you."It was past midnight, and Benjamin was drifting off to sleep when he suddenly received a phone call from Venn. In an instant, his eyes lit up, a mix of excitement on his face. He hurriedly got out of bed, carefully putting on his clothes. Finally, he gently opened the door and quickly stepped outside."What's up?"As he rounded the corner, Benjamin saw Venn leaning against a wall, smoking more than a half-burnt cigarette.Upon seeing Benjamin approach, Venn quickly extinguished the cigarette and hopped onto his old Honda motorcycle. He started it up and pulled up in front of Benjamin, urging him: "Boss, get on quickly!"Seeing Venn's urgency, Benjamin said nothing more and swiftly sat on the back of the motorcycle, carefully putting on his helmet."Let's go!"The rattling of the old motorcycle echoed as the two figures disappeared into the night.About ten minutes later, Venn's old Honda motorcycle carried Benjamin into

    At this moment, Benjamin pushed the door open and entered the house again. But as he passed Olivia's bedroom, he couldn't help but stop. "You... are you still awake?" Noticing the light was still on in Olivia's room, and that she was facing the door, Benjamin couldn't help but ask. Hearing Benjamin's voice, Olivia slowly turned around. She seemed a bit surprised as she looked at him. "Benjamin, it's late at night. Why aren't you in your room? What are you doing outside?" As she asked, Olivia's gaze didn't forget to scrutinize him. Seeing her actions, Benjamin couldn't help but smile wryly, shaking his head as he spoke. "Can't sleep, so I went for a walk. What about you? Why haven't you slept yet? Aren't you afraid of getting wrinkles from staying up late?" Although Benjamin's words were half-joking, Olivia felt incredibly touched. It was clear that he genuinely cared for her. "It's nothing, and I just can't sleep either." After speaking, Olivia suddenly stood up. At this momen

    Benjamin, unbeknownst to him, was oblivious to the demonic prince's frenzy over the armor. He held in his hand a command token, under which lay a somewhat tragic corpse. However, a familiar energy emanated from the token, causing his brows to furrow deeply, for a voice resounded urgently within his mind."Chirp chirp!"Deep in thought, Benjamin was roused by Alan's voice. The creature, now the size of a sparrow, perched gracefully upon his shoulder.Recognizing the intention behind the creature's head rubbing against him, a tender smile graced Benjamin's lips: "You did wonderfully." he praised."Chirp chirp!"In response, Alan regurgitated an ancient ring which landed deftly in Benjamin's palm. As it touched his skin, the ring transformed into a golden glow, wrapping around his finger. It was the space ring Benjamin had discovered in the Dragon Palace. Although the spirit inside was dormant, its basic functions remained accessible.Earlier, Benjamin had entrusted this ring to Alan to

    Instantly, his face became grave. Only now did he discern the fading form of Alan, with even the flames upon it having waned by more than half. Yet, what was most alarming was the emanating ominous aura from the Demon God's heart, causing Benjamin to jolt and hurriedly shout,"Elder!""Hm?!"Hearing Benjamin's call, an ethereal figure suddenly appeared outside the central region of the altar. Its gaze locked onto the sealed space above the altar."Ha ha ha, foolish humans, my true form is almost here. Once it arrives, I'll reduce the both of you to mere ashes!"Sensing the familiar aura steadily nearing the altar, the Demon God's heart laughed triumphantly.However, a languid voice suddenly intervened,"Quiet!"Following which, an overpowering force, emanating from Benjamin, suddenly descended, shattering the very core of the heart."AHH!"A scream echoed from within. Simultaneously, an ethereal figure, eyes filled with disbelief, turned towards the altar."What is this force?!"Feeli

    Boom!Boom!Several blows in succession, and Benjamin had lost track of time. But at this moment, cracks began to appear on the wall before him. They spread and widened until finally, with a full-force punch, the wall collapsed. A vast space revealed itself, stretching out before his eyes.Here, Benjamin beheld a huge sacrificial altar, filling almost the entire space. Above the altar hung a heart. Though he could not ascertain from what creature it was taken, its appearance allowed him to sense an incredibly evil energy, pervading the entire space.Moreover, this evil energy made his mind reel slightly. Were it not for his strong will, Benjamin feared he would have been bewitched by the heart.Instantly, his face marked with caution, he retreated a few steps."This is truly bizarre? How could such an altar appear here?"But just then, stepping back some twenty meters, a sound of great astonishment suddenly came from behind him.Startled, Benjamin quickly turned to see the people who

    A few minutes later, a middle-aged man with blonde hair and glasses, holding a laptop, arrived looking somewhat harried and sleep-deprived. He looked toward Red, placed his hand over his chest, and rapidly spoke.“Prince Red, why have you summoned me here? My research is on the brink of completion, needing only one final step. If there's nothing urgent, I would like to return and continue with my work.”After speaking, the middle-aged man seemed incredibly impatient, ready to turn and leave.Seeing this, Red felt slightly annoyed but did not show anger. Instead, his face bore a placating expression, and he hastily replied.“Mr. Steven, I genuinely have a very important matter that requires your assistance. Agat and Orange are in trouble in New Braum, and I want you to go there and bring them back. What do you think?”Red's attitude was extremely humble, a stark contrast to his earlier arrogance and pride.However, Steven seemed not to care, his eyes sweeping the control room in a glan

    However, Steven seemed uninterested, his eyes sweeping the control room before he spoke, a little annoyed.“Your Highness Red, such a trivial matter, and you call me here? If you feel overly bored, I can help you with some training time. Within the next twenty-four hours, I assure you that the time spent will not be wasted at all!”Hearing this, Red's eyes showed a hint of fear.Although the man was just a human, his strength was not particularly great. However, Steven's status in the kingdom was very special. He was a scholar, and his creativity was terrifying.Hundreds of years ago, when the kingdom of Autuman was just a small tribe on the planet Namec, their king, then a young man, luckily rescued a human, and this human was the middle-aged man before him, Steven.Harnessing the terrifying breadth of Steven's intellect, in less than a decade, Autuman evolved from a minor tribe, nestled in the wilderness of planet Namec, into a mighty empire. They conquered the entirety of Namec, an

    Boom!Boom!Boom!Blood painted the sky, and countless pieces of metal debris littered the ground.A smirk formed on Benjamin's lips. He hadn't expected that after such a long slumber, its power had grown so immense.However, the sight of the scattered armor shards pained him.Such high-quality armor pieces, capable of enhancing a warrior's strength and providing incredible defense, were now in ruins. For someone of Benjamin's caliber, these armors might not pose much challenge, but if equipped by his soldiers, they would have been invaluable assets, exponentially amplifying their combat prowess.Although he felt a twinge of regret, Benjamin didn't blame Alan. Instead, he commended him."Alan, you did splendidly!""Chirp, chirp!"As Benjamin's praise graced his ears, a rush of exhilaration surged through Alan. In mere moments, his form swiftly contracted, taking on the delicate guise of a sparrow, which alighted on Benjamin's shoulder, its chirps melodious and relentless.Witnessing s

    "Ha ha ha, I was merely jesting with you." he laughed with ease, his eyes dancing mischievously: "No need to take it so seriously. Anyway, feel free to examine it. It's now mine, and even if you wish, you cannot claim it."With a boisterous laugh, Benjamin, brimming with amusement, effortlessly tossed a ring towards her.Catching a glimpse of his action, a pang of surprise coursed through Fidelma. Still, she reached out, catching the item.Holding the ornate ring in her hand, she felt a strange force emanating from within. The intricate designs adorning it suggested an ancient aura. Fidelma could confidently deduce that this was a space treasure. Its grade was undoubtedly high, surpassing any artifact she had previously encountered in the annals or in the treasury of the Moonlight Religious Sect."Done examining?" His voice hinted at impatience: "If so, kindly return it."Watching Fidelma cradle the ring, almost reluctant to release it, a twitch of amusement played on Benjamin's lips.

    Now, even though its headpiece had been severed, it was still far more complete than the other armors.Without hesitation, he approached, with a mere thought, his storage ring's light flared. The entire armor, along with the leader's corpse, was drawn into it.He then surveyed the surroundings once more, detecting no anomalies. Benjamin then proceeded towards Dermot's wooden house atop the hill."Boss, you're not hurt, are you?" asked Azaria, eyeing Benjamin's bloodstained appearance with a hint of concern.Benjamin glanced at him and shook his head."I'm fine; go rest. Tonight, there may be more to do. I'll handle it myself." he said, continuing straight to Dermot's bedroom.Upon seeing Benjamin's bloodied state, Irina suddenly rushed over, her face filled with alarm. She hastily grabbed his hand, her expression fraught with concern."You...you're alright?" she stammered.Seeing her worry, Benjamin merely shook his head without verbally responding. Meanwhile, Dermot emerged from the

    Although puzzled, Benjamin refrained from questioning her outright. Instead, his gaze swept the room. Aside from scattered clothing and discarded food on the floor, nothing seemed amiss. It was logical. After all, someone fleeing in a hurry wouldn't leave traces behind."Where did the woman who was in your room go?" he inquired, his sudden question startling Irina, making her let out a soft gasp.At her reaction, Benjamin's eyebrows furrowed, his gaze growing wary: "What did you ask?" she stammered, fear evident in her voice.Reiterating his query but with more firmness, he watched as Irina visibly shrank back, finally murmuring: "She...she said she had something to do and left. Can...can you not look at me like that? I'm truly scared."Tears welled up in her eyes as she spoke, every word dripping with fear. Benjamin felt a pang of confusion but, before he could react, she threw herself at him, gripping him tightly: "Please don't go. I'm truly terrified. This place... I can't bear to
