Ben swallowed a mouthful of meat and said, "Don't worry, I'll wire you the money on time every month. How could anything go wrong?"
"To be honest, you really should think about your daughter, or do something legitimate," Lisa said.
"Isn't running a bar legitimate?" Ben retorted.
"Don't think I don't know, your bar is just a front, there's everything inside, what if something happens to you, what will we do?" Lisa replied.
Ben chuckled, "Trust me, I'm a prominent figure in Morburn. Who dares to touch me?"
Just as Ben finished speaking, the door of the room suddenly pushed open, and an elderly man in a suit silently walked in.
Lisa was startled, instinctively holding her daughter and hiding behind Ben.
Ben's expression also changed, but he quickly calmed down, standing up respectfully. "Respected butler, Travis, why have you come here? Does the Earl have something to instruct?"
"Yes, you're right," Travis said. The door behind him closed on its own after he entered.
Ben continued, "What is the matter that requires you to come in person?"
While Ben spoke, he gestured to Lisa to take the child and leave.
However, Travis blocked the door, leaving only the window by the bedside as the possible exit.
Lisa moved slowly towards the window with her daughter in her arms, trying not to attract Travis's attention.
However, at that moment, Travis coughed and said, "Ben, as you know, you have no hope of escape."
As soon as Travis spoke, Ben erupted with a roar, flames of spiritual energy engulfing him instantly, and a warhammer forming in his hand as he lunged towards Travis.
Ben's massive stature, powerful spiritual energy, and terrifying warhammer made him seem like a burning war chariot charging towards Travis.
In contrast, Travis's frail body appeared as insignificant as grass before a chariot. But then, Travis formed several seals with his hands, and then pulled them apart in front of him.
A barrier of light appeared.
