"Alright, I won't tease you any longer. I came here today to invite you to my house. My grandfather wants to meet you. Moreover, he asked me to convey a message: if you want to know your secret, come to the capital and meet him. At that time, all your doubts and questions will be resolved."

As Griselda spoke these words, her face took on a slightly mischievous expression, making Benjamin unable to resist glancing back at her. That's when he noticed her deep gaze on his left chest area. A hint of suspicion appeared in her eyes, startling Benjamin, who hurriedly tightened his collar.

"What's the matter? Can't I take a look?"

Griselda's words made everyone in the car turn their heads to look.

Griselda felt embarrassed and quickly glared at Benjamin, realizing she had said something inappropriate.

"I've conveyed the message. Whether you want to go to the capital is up to you. But if you do, head straight to the outskirts, near the large lake. That's where my grandfather lives. He lik

    "Help me check this car's license plate; I want to see who's inside."Upon hearing Benjamin's request, Venn performed a series of operations. Soon, the computer screen zoomed in on the person sitting in the car. However, due to the satellite's distance, even Venn couldn't identify the person's face. Moreover, the vehicle was moving at high speed. If Venn hadn't been a professional, capturing a moving image on the main road would have been challenging."Boss, I'm sorry. This car is moving too fast. Plus, the satellite I'm accessing could be of better quality. We can only determine that the person driving Griselda is likely a woman, and the car is heading toward New Harbor. If we want to find out who is inside, we may have to go to New Harbor ourselves. Hopefully, the car owner won't travel too far."Seeing Venn's slightly helpless expression, Benjamin didn't say anything. After a moment, he furrowed his brow, pointed at the screen, and spoke up."Venn, help me take a screenshot and

    "Benjamin, are you alright?"Suddenly, Olivia's voice rang in his ears, bringing him back to reality. He shook his head slightly, looked at her, and smiled."There's nothing wrong, and I'm just thinking about a few things!"After saying this, Benjamin quickly went to freshen up. A few minutes later, he emerged, and Olivia had already set the table with a simple breakfast consisting of two fried eggs, a sausage, and some cheese.Although the breakfast seemed nothing special, Benjamin's mood was quite good. He looked at the food on the table and smiled."This is the first time my landlady has cooked breakfast for me. I wonder if it's as good as what's served at a restaurant?"Although he said this, Benjamin's actions were anything but slow. He quickly picked up his utensils and tasted the fried eggs. His eyes then lit up, and he continued to praise the meal."Wow, this is the best breakfast I've ever had. You're truly number one!"As he ate, Benjamin deliberately raised a thumb t

    In this situation, Benjamin knew very well in his heart. However, he didn't expose it but instead turned to look at Venn."And you, why did you decide to return to your hometown and become the owner of a general store? I remember you had saved quite some money back then, which could have been used to start a business in the city, right?"Upon hearing Benjamin's question, Venn just smiled without giving a direct answer.Seeing that, Benjamin didn't continue speaking either. For a moment, the atmosphere inside the car became much quieter."By the way, boss, I heard you got married. Is that true?"After some time, Noam's voice suddenly rang out, livening up the atmosphere in the car once again. However, Benjamin's gaze turned fierce as he looked at Noam."Who told you that?""What?!"Caught off guard by Benjamin's counter-question, Noam didn't know how to respond, stammering for a while before finally finding his words."It's not a secret or anything. Actually, my wife is the CE

    "Ah, big brother, you're here!"As soon as Mila saw Benjamin at the door, she became excited, waving her arm towards him. Seeing his sister awake and slightly flushed, Benjamin couldn't help but show a hint of happiness. However, when he noticed the person sitting beside her, peeling an apple for her, his eyebrows furrowed in annoyance."Isabella, what are you doing here?!"At some point, Isabella had appeared in the hospital, and moreover, she had purposely come to visit Benjamin's sister. If he hadn't just seen the two of them happily chatting, Benjamin would have wanted to pull Isabella outside and ask why she was here.Yet, Isabella's gaze suddenly shifted towards Benjamin, her face showing a gentle warmth."Benjamin, are you tired from your work trip? I noticed you didn't come home last night, so I came to visit Mila this morning. She had just woken up, so I brought some fruit."Hearing Isabella's explanation, Benjamin couldn't help but feel a bit strange.Although Isabell

    This time, Benjamin received a scolding from Isabella that left him unable to raise his head. For a moment, he felt quite frustrated. Hadn't she just been sweet and gentle? How could a little squeeze change her back into the capricious woman she had been before?Although he thought so inwardly, Benjamin didn't dare voice these thoughts in front of Isabella. He could only force a smile and scratch his head."Weren't you surprising me? I thought someone had switched places with you. You're not usually this kind, are you?"Of course, the last part was only dared to be thought, not said out loud to Isabella.Unbeknownst to him, Isabella's eyes were like lightning bolts, as if she wanted to devour him alive."What do you mean? Are you saying that I usually don't treat you well, and now you suspect someone else is impersonating me? If you don't want me to treat you like this, then from now on, don't expect me to buy you any gifts!"As she spoke these words, Isabella's face clearly sho

    Benjamin was unsure how he managed to return home. Fortunately, no one was home when he arrived. Isabella had gone to the office, and Raelynn and her daughter, Kinsley, had disappeared since early morning. Kinsley was probably hanging out with her friends, while Raelynn was most likely at beauty salons and spas. However, Benjamin's father-in-law seemed distant from his mother-in-law, and he had not seen him for quite some time. Moreover, the man was openly maintaining a mistress outside.As per his habit, Benjamin paused briefly on the ground floor before quickly heading to his bedroom. However, upon reaching his room, his steps faltered, and his brows furrowed."That's strange? I'm sure I closed the door when I left. How is it open now?"Although slightly suspicious, Benjamin didn't hesitate too much and swiftly entered his bedroom. Everything seemed to be in order, but he couldn't shake the feeling that something was off.He then glanced at the foot of his bed, feeling a sense o

    Seeing Tiger's gestures and words, Benjamin showed no particular reaction. He had previously helped Tiger merely out of convenience, and there was no sentimental attachment between them. On the contrary, Tiger owed him a favor.However, since the man had humbled himself and apologized, Benjamin found it difficult to disregard his dignity. Furthermore, Noam was still in their hands. Benjamin could only pretend nothing happened and slowly followed behind Tiger, entering the mansion.After a while, guided by Tiger through numerous twists and turns, Benjamin finally arrived at a large hall on the mansion's second floor. This spacious hall spanned several hundred square meters, and many guards stood around its perimeter, each exuding a mighty aura. They were much stronger than the guards outside.What caught Benjamin's attention, though, were a young man and woman standing with a middle-aged man seated at the center of the grand hall. Beside them sat a slightly disgruntled-looking young

    A few days later, in the bustling airport, Benjamin's footsteps slowed, and he glanced at Olivia with a somewhat awkward expression."Olivia, I'm truly sorry for the trouble. I appreciate you taking care of my sister while I'm not here. When I return, I'll treat you to dinner as a thank you!"Looking at Benjamin's backpack and then at Andrea's figure standing not far away, Olivia couldn't help but feel reluctant to part with them. Moreover, she always thought that they seemed to be hiding a secret from her. However, Olivia never thought that Benjamin's trip to the capital with Andrea wasn't just about resolving personal matters; he also intended to pretend to be her boyfriend to meet her father's family.Benjamin didn't dare to mention this in front of Olivia, and Olivia herself never expected Andrea to make such a request to Benjamin.Therefore, after hearing Benjamin's instructions, Olivia looked at him with tearful eyes and said,"Don't worry about it, and I'll take good care

    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
