The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 417

Nevertheless, Daniel remained unconcerned, brandishing an impish smile. "Although Beauty didn’t want to give me hairs from certain private areas, your head hair will do. The scent might not be as strong, but it was taken from you! It should work well enough."

"You pervert, I'll twist you to death!" Furious and gnashing her teeth, Beauty pinned Daniel to the ground and furiously twisted at his waist with her hand. After giving the rascally Daniel a good thrashing, she huffed, "I'm starting the clock now. If you don't find the Tiger King within thirty minutes, you lose. You will kneel before Soldier and headbutt the ground, calling him 'grandpa.' And I will punish you!"

"What kind of punishment will you give me?" Daniel asked with a grin.

"I'll pluck every last hair from your head, one by one, leaving you bald!"

"Whoa! Beauty, don't you think that's a bit extreme?"

"You asked for it! That's what you get for irritating me!"

Daniel scratched his head, mulling over the situation seriously. Something didn’t feel right as he recalled, "Beauty, when we made the bet just now, we said one hour, didn't we?"

"It was an hour before, but it's thirty minutes now."

"Why is that?"

"Because I said so! I decide! If you lose after thirty minutes, I'll pluck every hair from your head!"

Beauty was utterly unyielding. After asserting her rules, she internally contemplated a wicked idea but quickly dismissed it.

No, no! How could she even consider that?

"Get lost! If you spout another word of nonsense, I’ll rip your mouth apart!"

"My mouth has been torn apart by you plenty of times!"

"You think I won't?"

"Beauty, how could you not? You'd miss out because my mouth is quite useful to you; it brings you joy. If you tear it up—smack!—there goes your happiness."

"Country boy, quit your chattering! While you've been wasting time talking, another five minutes went by. Now you only have ten minutes left. If you still can't find the Tiger King then, you lose!"
