As the man approached, instead of getting nervous, Roland actually felt even more relaxed.
The posture of the man holding the knife as he approached was like a toddler learning how to walk in his eyes at this moment.
Knowing this was the right opportunity, Roland finished his observation of the overall situation in an instant and immediately formed a plan inside his head.
The man pointed his knife at Roland and told him with glaring eyes, "Hand over the watch!"
Roland frowned, the voice of the man was truly very familiar.
He looked him straight in the eyes and it was then that he recalled.
'The Jolex Watch Store employee!'
No wonder his voice was familiar, it turned out that it was actually him. The guy who mistook him as Stacey's bodyguard and ended up getting face-slapped by him.
Roland was confused as to how he ended up becoming a robber?
However, none of that was important right now.
As the knife approached his face, he suddenly made a sudden movement. He let go of Janine's hand as he parried the hand holding the knife to the safe side.
With swift motion, his other hand traveled toward the man's neck, his knuckle hitting on the spot right below his jaw.
The man's eyes turned white in an instant as his body started to fall limply to the ground.
However, Roland did not stop there.
With the enhanced physical and soul abilities, coupled with the level 1 unarmed combat skill, his movements were swift and precise.
One of his hands caught the falling knife as the other seized a bar of chocolate from the stand.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Even before the leader and man holding the girl hostage could react, two things had already flown over to their face.
Fortunately, the man holding the female worker had already relaxed his grip over her earlier when Roland arrived near the leader, else Roland might not dare to do this risky move, as it might implicate the female worker.
The chocolate bar hit the leader's face accurately. Roland made sure that he used the proper amount of strength this time as the chocolate bar exploded right into his face. He then staggered back in panic, trying to swipe the chocolates that had smudged into his face.
At the same time, with Roland's great control over the knife with his cooking skill, the knife traveled straight through the man's glabella.
If he wanted to, Roland could have killed the man with this move. However, he did not do it and has no plans on doing it. Murder was a great crime after all.
He made sure that only the knife's handle hit the man's forehead. However, even this was enough to immobilize him.
Roland did not wait for the two of them to recover, he stomped his feet and pounced toward's the leader first.
Controlling his strength, his knuckle once again landed on the area below the leader's jaw. Just like what happened earlier, his eyes turned white as he slumped to the ground.
Roland did the same to the second guy.
These were just ordinary people and what he did was just an ordinary thing. The level 1 unarmed combat was far from its limit and Roland only showed a fraction of its might.
The event happened in an instant. Janine and the two employees had still not processed what had happened when three bodies made 'thud' sounds as they lay limply on the ground.
"Quick, get something to tie them with," he commanded as he started pulling the three men in one place.
Janine and the other two were startled awake. It was only then that they realized the threat was already neutralized.
Their gaze as they looked at Roland changed.
Janine could only utter one word, "C-cool!"
The two employees were family with the store, the male employee immediately went towards a corner and threw a roll of plastic twine straw over.
Roland caught the straw without a problem as he began tying the three unconscious men together.
After making sure that he tied them perfectly, he started taking their bonnet masks off of their faces.
And just like what he expected, it was indeed the man who he met at the watch store.
Roland thought that he should ask Stacey about it later.
Roland then told the employee to call the police over.
Knowing that it would be a hassle later, he decided not to stay any longer and just leave the matters to the two employee's to handle.
Anyways, the CCTVs were turned off so no one would know that they were there if no one told the police.
Either way, even if the two employee ended up telling the police, Roland doesn't need to worry either as they did nothing wrong
After telling them not to tell the police about their involvement, Roland and Janine left the convenience after they bought some snacks.
And the leader earlier was right, the prices were indeed overpriced.
Anyways, this will be investigated by the police later so the owner of the store would probably also end up in jail or pay a fine for overpricing.
Roland and Janine had already started walking away when they heard the female worker's shout.
"Wait! Thank you for saving us. May we know what your name is?" The female employee only felt gratefulness in her heart as she looked at Roland.
Roland turned to look at them, "My name is not important, what I did was merely an act of justice!"
After leaving the phrase, Roland and Janine proceeded to walk forward without stopping.
The two employees look at each other.
'We only want to know your name, why are you leaving phrases out of super heroes movies, instead?'
Back in the Ramborghini Sian, Janine who has already recovered from the shock earlier, could not help but burst laughing recalling the phrase that Roland left behind to the two employees.
"What's funny?"
"Haha- nothing! I just didn't think such cringe words would come out of your mouth- pffft! Hahaha!"
"Cringe? I thought it was a cool phrase though," Roland shrugged his shoulders as he ignored Janine.
'Cool?' Janine could not help but think of Roland's action earlier. He indeed looked cool when he subdued the three men in an instant earlier.
However, this thought did not leave Janine's mind, allowing Roland to sulk and ponder over the cringe words he said earlier.
As the Ramborghini Sian's engine started, a certain feeling also started to bloom inside the girl's heart.
