Dungeon King: A Lady Knight Offered by My Goblins

As soon as Ethan heard, he had an idea in mind.

To infiltrate Northwood, he would need to establish relationships with various forces in the city.

If what he said was true, the scale of a guild capable of cooperating with Northwood was beyond Ethan's imagination.

Under his referral, he could definitely take many shortcuts.

Besides, the conditions were tempting enough.

If he could successfully join the guild, the first problem he would need to deal with was the man before him.

He was definitely not that simple.

Although he didn't know why he was specifically looking for him, from the recent conversation, Ethan keenly sensed that he wanted to foster him into the guild's management. Even to a level where he could stand equal to him.

As the vice guild leader, he was already in a role where he stood above all others.

If he wanted to climb further, the only position left was the guild leader.

But there were three vice guild leaders...

At this thought, he nodded his head.

·ƈθm Speaking to Nathan Turner, he said, "Alright, we'll do as the boss says. By the way, my name is ETH."

Nathan Turner nodded with satisfaction.

Finally, all his talk wasn't in vain.

If he could lift ETH up, then with his help in the future, compared to other vice guild leaders, his advantage would be even greater.

As for why he chose ETH, that was even more intriguing.

From the moment Nathan Turner saw him in the crowd, he felt a mysterious feeling.

He was the one he was looking for.

He took out his makeup kit and continued to apply makeup on his cheeks, "When the guild leader comes later, be sharp. Speak when I tell you to speak, and don't ever interrupt the guild leader. She hates that the most!"

"Now, let me tell you about the origins of our guild…"

After a lot of talking, Ethan had a preliminary understanding of the guild's development.

It was almost as he had imagined.

The Rose Guild in Northwood was an undeniable force, second only to the city's manor.

Ethan nodded his head.

The two then fell silent, beginning a long waiting time.

At some point, footsteps sounded outside the door.

Nathan Turner suddenly stood up, his eyes signaling Ethan to stand up too.

Ethan had no choice but to follow suit.

Then the footsteps abruptly stopped in front of the room's door.

Ethan looked at Nathan Turner.

He saw him with his hands tightly together on his trouser seams, his face extremely serious, and his upper body bent forward by 30%.

He mimicked Nathan Turner's movements and prepared himself.

A smile crossed Nathan Turner's face.

He was right about ETH.

He was indeed intelligent and capable of helping him achieve true greatness!

Ethan, on the other hand, was stunned.

What kind of magic does this guild leader, who can make Nathan Turner admire her from the bottom of his heart, have?

The door of the room slowly opened.

The first thing Ethan saw was a pair of black high-heeled shoes.

Her feet were covered in black stockings, and a black coat wrapped her lower legs.

"Who is he?"

A crisp female voice echoed in Ethan's ear.

The voice wasn't loud, but the aura of sternness was evident.

Ethan was somewhat incredulous.

The guild leader who could single-handedly dominate Northwood was a woman?

Nathan Turner hurriedly said with a smile, "Guild leader, this is my trusted aide who I've trained for many years. He's been out on missions all this time, and I just recalled him back because we were short-handed."

Ethan didn't wait for a prompt from Nathan Turner, speaking in a deep voice, "ETH, at your service, guild leader. I've heard tales of your reputation from our vice guild leader, and today, they proved true."

Rose's gaze instantly turned to Ethan, a playful curiosity in her eyes.

"Oh? I wonder what image I project in the eyes of the vice guild leader. Why don't you tell me?"

Beside him, Nathan Turner suddenly felt like he'd fallen into an icy pit.

Cold sweat fell from his brow as he stammered, "Guild leader, it's my fault for not training him better, I'll have him leave right away."

Rose shook her head, pressing the vice guild leader back into his seat.

"Vice guild leader, there's no need to be so tense. Today, I'm not your guild leader, I'm just Rose. I hope you understand."

Nathan Turner gave an awkward smile, his trembling hand betraying his nerves.

He regretted bringing Ethan here; if Ethan said the wrong thing, his fate would be the same as his predecessor's.

Biting his lip, he spoke again, "Sister Rose, he's not feeling well. I think it would be best if he went home. Look, he can't even speak properly."

Rose's gaze grew cold. "Nathan, it seems you've been talking a lot today."

Nathan Turner froze, promptly closing his mouth.

Internally, he cursed ETH countless times, hoping against hope that Ethan wouldn't say the wrong thing. If he did, Nathan's own future was on the line!

Ethan remained calm and composed, "In my eyes, guild leader is a strong, powerful woman, capable of leading the guild single-handedly. You are truly a formidable heroine. I, ETH, deeply admire you."

Rose watched the two of them and began to laugh quietly.

"Alright, ETH is it? Come find me at the guild tomorrow. I have a job for you."

Ethan nodded and sat back down.

Nathan Turner watched the scene unfold, slightly taken aback.

Was it really this easy? Was this the Rose he knew?

Once the food arrived, the tension eased.

The three of them chatted and laughed; time flew by.

By the time they finished eating, it was late into the evening.

A curfew had already started, and the streets were empty.

Rose looked at Ethan with interest, "Nathan, since he's your confidant, you'll be responsible for his work arrangements. Have him stop by my office tomorrow."

Nathan Turner was overjoyed. "Thank you, guild leader. I will definitely repay this kindness."

Rose patted Nathan Turner on the shoulder, her words laden with deeper meaning, "No need to repay anything. You like talent, I like talent. We're all the same."

With that, she stretched lazily and walked away.

Nathan Turner squinted his eyes, watching Rose's retreating figure with a smirk.

Even if you know, how can you stop my plan?

He turned to Ethan, pretending to be angry, "Who told you to speak up earlier?"

"Did you forget you can only speak after I signal you?"

Ethan raised an eyebrow, surprised at Nathan Turner's words.

Is this how people in power manipulate others?

He pretended to be embarrassed, scratching the back of his head, "Sir, I forgot, I really did."

Nathan Turner snorted, walking over to Ethan, "Thank goodness you didn't cause any trouble. This matter is settled. Now, which department do you want to work in?"

Ethan rubbed his hands together and said, "Anywhere is fine, I'll leave it up to you, sir."

Nathan Turner nodded approvingly.

"Alright, since you trust me so much, I won't let you down. I've already spoken with the restaurant and arranged a room for you. After this, head straight back to the restaurant. You'll have to put up with this for one night, but I promise you'll be living the high life soon!"

Ethan feigned excitement, nodding enthusiastically.

Seeing Ethan's demeanor, Nathan Turner felt a bit less anxious.

"You can go back now. See you tomorrow."

Ethan watched as Nathan Turner disappeared down the road before returning to the restaurant.

Upon entering, he was greeted by the same soldier from earlier.

The soldier spoke in a low voice, "The boss has arranged a room for you over here. You'll be staying here tonight. If anything happens, just call for me. I'll be outside your door, so I won't be going anywhere."

On the surface, Ethan nodded furiously, but inwardly, he was amused.

Nathan Turner still didn't fully trust him.

Such a crafty fox, he feared Ethan might betray him or disappear, leading to the failure of his plan.

However, Ethan thought, every man has his strategy, and I have mine. Tomorrow, I will have a private meeting with guild leader Rose.

Then, there will be plenty of opportunities for me to openly break free from Nathan Turner's control!

Ethan sent the soldier out of the room with a smile and lay down on the bed.

The soft mattress instantly drained the fatigue from Ethan's body.
