The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 424: Closing Eyes Daniel wondered whether Beauty was serious about following through with their bet or if she was planning a trick. Either way, he decided to stretch out his face, ready to see what she had in store.

"Close your eyes!" Beauty commanded.

Daniel obeyed, closing his eyes.

"All of you, turn around!" Beauty ordered Soldier and the others.

They all obediently turned their backs. Her actions made Daniel think that maybe, just maybe, a real smooch was about to happen. Anticipating the sweet moment, Daniel puckered up with closed eyes. But what he got was not a kiss but rather a sharp slap across the face.

With a surprised and angry face, Daniel asked, "Did you just slap me?" "No, I was giving you a kiss! Didn't you ask for a kiss? I used my palm to deliver a warm smack right to you! How was that? Was it heartfelt enough? I can add a bit more force if you want." "You...ugh! You shameless woman!" "Dare say that again, and I'll slap you proper!" Beauty raised her hand, looking ready to strike.

Just then, Daniel noticed that Lily had disappeared. He quickly changed topics, "Hey, where'd the fox spirit go?" Beauty glanced around, unable to spot Lily, and replied with irritation. "Wasn't she summoned by you? Shouldn't you know where she went off to? Instead of asking me?" "You hadclose my eyes, so I missed out on your sweet 'kiss,' got a slap instead, and now the fox spirit's gone. I was hoping to ask her for sinformation." "Information? What, you wanted to ask that fox if she'd sleep with you?" "Does that kind of thing need asking? No, that's something you figure out by doing, okay?" "Doing?" Beauty's fists rained down on Daniel like hail. Her mood soured further, suspecting Daniel of more mischief. "Who are you doing that with? I should beat you senseless, you scoundrel!" As Beauty pummeled him, the Tiger King was secured back into its artificial mountain enclosure. Because of its previous escape, Beauty felt uneasy. She asked Daniel, "What if the beast escapes again?" "Givea kiss, and I'll fix it. I guarantee the beast won't dare stray again." Beauty lifted her hand again. "Here comes the kiss!" "It's supposed to be with your lips, not your hand." "Well, I only know how to 'kiss' with my palm, Daniel!" Smack! Beauty's hand landed another slap, but this tit wasn't on Daniel's handsface but on his backside. "Now spill it, how do we make sure the animal doesn't run off again?" "What else? Just talk to it!" Daniel approached the Tiger King and declared, "Big kitty, you don't have a nyet, right? You're all shiny gold, so how about I nyou? With all that glitter, you're unbeatable in the universe. From now on, you'll be Gold." "Roar..." The Tiger King let out a sound, clearly not fond of the name.
