The Dark Raven Guild is a free force within Titan City, a mercenary organization similar to an adventurer's guild. They earn commissions by commissioning quests, a common practice in various cities, only differing in the guild's name.
The leader of the Dark Raven Guild is a mysterious figure who wields immense power and countless riches in Titan City. Apart from the core members of the guild's upper echelons, no one has ever seen his true face.
Maybe he's a cross-dresser~ (laughs)
In front of the gate of a building stood a lightly armored man and a petite fox-person.
Above the gate, there was a plaque with the four large characters "Dark Raven Guild" written on it. Well, the characters were a bit distorted, of different sizes, and there were obvious signs of fading. Clearly, either the guild leader's eyesight had improved so much that he couldn't see the plaque, or he was too lazy to fix it and didn't care what it was.
"That's it in a way."
Blood Raven explained to Xiao Han helplessly that the prestigious Dark Raven Guild would never offer male prostitute services, nor did they have any male escorts. Moreover, he himself was not a top-tier male escort who pampered young women, and his appearance fee was not very high.
Do you like mature and sexy older women?
"..."
"That's true. A gentle and considerate personality, the temperament of a virtuous wife, and especially her breasts! How can you win people's hearts if your breasts aren't big! I understand you, brother!"
"You know nothing!"
Blood Raven couldn't help but interrupt the little fox who was spouting nonsense. He gripped the dagger at his waist, but then, remembering the task he had been entrusted with, he put it down again.
I really want to kill this adorable little fox with a knife!
Why did my superiors assign me this troublesome task?
This fox definitely has something wrong with its brain!
Blood Raven pondered for a moment, then began to question the meaning of life.
Xiao Han, on the other hand, looked around with shining eyes. He was led by Blood Raven to a secluded street, especially to a relatively prosperous building. He secretly thought to himself that the Dark Raven Guild must be very wealthy!
So, it's perfectly reasonable to help the rookie fox who "was impoverished and forced to resort to robbery, eventually becoming a street thug and a big boss"... What was it again?
"Your Highness, it's best to be careful."
On his shoulder, Radiance kept a close eye on any suspicious figures appearing around him, especially a certain veteran assassin who had let the fox get away with a beating but was then countered. It was common practice for him to harbor resentment and secretly strike.
"Of course, Glorious, you too, lest you get caught and roasted like a pigeon."
Xiao Han responded, offering a cautious reminder.
Radiance: "..."
"Creak!"
Just as a joyful atmosphere filled the entrance of the Dark Raven Guild, the tightly closed gate was suddenly opened, and Blood Raven raised his hand to signal Xiao Han to stay where he was, before stepping forward alone.
"call!"
The moment the door was opened, a long, thick log came hurtling towards them through the crack. Blood Raven, however, remained calm and leaped up, drawing a blood-red dagger. In an instant, the log that had crashed into them was reduced to dust and splintered into pieces!
"Oh my gosh~ Blood Raven is as agile as ever~"
On one side, a woman wearing a mink coat walked out, elegant and graceful. She wrapped herself tightly in a rather revealing light purple patterned cheongsam, walked in high heels, and clapped her hands lightly to applaud Blood Raven's skills.
"Natasha, stop fooling around."
Blood Raven ignored the woman who often played pranks and enjoyed it, and waved behind her to signal Xiao Han to come in.
Upon entering, Xiao Han discovered that the Dark Raven Guild's interior was quite spacious, however...
The decorations are all too outdated.
"This must be the talent the president has his eye on, hmm, she's an adorable little fox~"
Natasha swayed her slender waist, one of her beautiful eyes partially obscured by a strand of hair, staring intently at Xiao Han's werewolf (fox) disguise. A flush rose on her charming face, as if she were a thirsty young woman eyeing a young boy, ready to devour him whole, bones and all.
A mysterious smile?
Xiao Han took a step back and hid next to Blood Raven, inexplicably feeling a sense of danger from the other party.
The kind of case that even three bottles of kidney tonic pills couldn't save.
"Welcome to the Dark Raven Guild. I think Blood Raven has already explained the guild rules to you, right?"
The next moment, Natasha flashed by like a blur, smiled and touched Xiao Han's fox ears, and said.
"Eh!!"
Xiao Han stared in astonishment as the other person reached out a small hand and pinched his cheeks wantonly, a mischievous smile on their face.
"My codename~ blooms in the eternal night, entwined with darkness and evil, blossoming into the flower of truth it follows, the Black Rose, Natasha..."
Natasha leaned slightly closer to Xiao Han's face, exhaling her fragrant breath: "As you can see, she's a charming and alluring young woman~"
(Pfft!)
As steam rose, Xiao Han's face quickly turned red, his heart pounded, and his bloodshot eyes were filled with shock.
"call out!"
Blood Raven grabbed Xiao Han, blocking Natasha's further teasing, and explained:
"Her profession is that of a mage skilled in mind magic, and she usually serves as an interrogator for the Titan City authorities."
"Oh dear, that's so unfair! She's clearly an alchemist!"
Natasha covered her mouth and chuckled, the glimpse of her long legs peeking out from under her cheongsam causing the men in the guild to turn away instinctively.
So enthusiastic...
That's a bit excessive.
Xiao Han's face remained stiff, and as the group talked, the ground trembled.
"Bang!"
Half a piece of iron was exposed, and with a loud shout from underground, a black figure darted out.
"Waaaaah, I'm back again!"
The black figure laughed wildly, but the next moment, a violent aura erupted. A long leg, hidden deep beneath an exquisite cheongsam, carried the force of thunder and kicked the black figure in the abdomen. The explosive force shattered the opponent's defenses, turning the latter into a cannonball, embedded in the wall. The entire guild building trembled.
A sound of bones breaking?
"I told you, don't let me see you digging a hole again! And you still dared to do it!"
Natasha pulled her leg back, frowned, and said angrily.
"Yes, Your Highness Black Rose."
The figure embedded in the wall slid down, weak and listless.
"Cough cough."
Blood Raven coughed a few times unconsciously, signaling to the newbie that he should restrain his ferocious nature.
"Black Crow".
The thin boy carrying a shovel introduced himself to Xiao Han. He seemed like a shy young man, except for his bright and clear eyes.
"New buddy, let me introduce myself. My profession is thief..."
"Oh, he's a thief, the lowest-ranking professional in the guild, who specializes in digging up graves."
Blood Raven explained, "Because of this, the guild received many reports. Last time, during the tomb-bombing incident at night, we were even taken away by the city management guards and detained for a week before being released."
"Wait, they didn't let me out willingly."
At this point, Black Crow pursed his lips slightly, a hint of pride in his expression.
"So, you... you escaped from prison?"
Natasha covered her mouth slightly, exclaiming in surprise.
Amidst the admiring gazes of the crowd, Black Crow exuded a mysterious confidence that said, "I'm so awesome, I'm definitely going to be the protagonist," which was quite dazzling.
As soon as he finished speaking, the timid little fox suddenly brightened up.
"Grave robbing, tunnel digging, you're the legendary Tomb Raider Captain!"
Xiao Han, unable to contain his enthusiasm, grasped Black Crow's hands, his face filled with adoration.
Black Crow: "???"
