This time, Whitestone completely lost his patience! He slammed the table and stood up, glaring at Ethan with fury.
"Looks like you're not here to do business sincerely—you're just here to stir up trouble, aren't you?"
He paused for a moment, then sneered coldly.
"If that's the case, then the Scarlet Legion will gladly accept your challenge! But the question is… do you dare?"
The entire room fell into dead silence.
Everyone held their breath, eyes darting between Ethan and Whitestone, filled with shock and confusion. Clearly, aside from Isabella and Nightfall, no one had expected things to escalate like this…
It was obvious to anyone paying attention—Ethan was deliberately provoking Whitestone.
But why?
As an envoy of the Scarlet Legion, Whitestone represented not just himself, but the entire guild's reputation.
And on top of that, he was a top-tier player.
