The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 478

"I won't take advantage of you! If Joshua doesn't arrive within ten minutes, then you'll have to get down on all fours like a dog and bark three times," Pork challenged Daniel, simply aiming to humiliate him a bit.

"Uncle, are you proposing a bet?" asked Daniel with a chuckle.

"A bet?" Pork looked at Daniel with a dismissive sneer and mocked, "Someone like you thinks you can bet with me?"

"Well, if you're not brave enough to make a bet with me, why should I act like a dog and bark?" Daniel taunted. He was trying to goad Pork into setting his own trap.

After considering for a moment, convinced that Daniel could never get Joshua to come, Pork decided to take the bait in order to shame Daniel even more. "Fine! I'll take that bet!"

"Uncle, there are so many witnesses here! If you lose the bet later, you know you can’t back out." Daniel warned.

"Back out? Do I, Pork, seem like someone who backs down from a bet? But let’s see if you, country boy, don’t try to wimp out when you lose!" Pork said, then quickly shifted the conversation. "Since you want to bet, let’s raise the stake."

Pork was already hatching a new plan in his mind, aiming to add insult to Daniel’s injury.
