Benjamin clearly didn’t expect Delbert's martial prowess to be so formidable.
Before he could react further, Delbert handed the bag he was carrying to Harriet.
With a cold demeanor, Delbert slowly approached Benjamin.
The murderous aura emanating from him made Benjamin's cronies wish they could abandon him and run away.
After that kick, Benjamin realized the man before him was no ordinary person.
Noticing the murderous intent radiating from Delbert made him panic.
He propped himself up on his hands and kept scooting backward on the floor.
"What do you want to do? Don't come any closer! I’m warning you, my boss is a big shot in the underworld of Imperium. If you mess with me, neither you nor your girlfriend can survive!"
Seeing that things were going south, Benjamin resorted to flaunting his boss's status in an attempt to intimidate Delbert into leaving.
But it was all in vain.
Delbert showed no fear and kept advancing without any pause in his step.
Step by step, Delbert walked towards Benjamin lying on the ground, looking down at him from above with eyes full of icy resolve, like the King of Terrors descending.
"I'm asking you, who sent you? And where did you get the news that we found an exceptional jewel? You'd better not lie, or face the consequences!"
Benjamin appeared tough on the surface, but he actually was scared.
