Chapter 43 -42-Hidden Trick within the Team
Michael Anderson, accompanied by a few of his trusted followers, heads towards the city gate for the gathering.
The city lord stands atop the city wall, awaiting the arrival of the team.
Being the closest to the city gate, Black Rose’s headquarters was the first to dispatch Michael Anderson and his followers, who swiftly mounted their horses and galloped towards the city gate.
They naturally became the first heroes to arrive.
The city lord looked at Michael Anderson with a smile, remarking, "Just as expected of one of Rose’s men, always full of fire and vigor, truly an embodiment of Rose herself."
Michael Anderson quickly knelt on one knee, bowed his head and responded, "You flatter me, my lord. The gap between our guild leader and me is as vast as the heavens. There is much I still need to learn. Our guild leader often speaks highly of you, saying that despite facing countless trials and tribulations, you still remain vibrant and vigorous, a truly remarkable feat."
The city lord instantly held Michael Anderson in higher esteem.
This didn’t match the rumors he’d heard about him.
Helping Michael to his feet, he said, "Ah, I’m old and no match for you young people. You see, even a minor Dark Lord is a problem that requires your assistance to solve."
"I understand what you mean, my lord," Michael Anderson replied calmly, "I will do my utmost to ensure this issue is resolved."
Just as the city lord was about to speak again, he noticed the representatives from the other two major guilds had arrived.
