The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 671

The two lovely ladies didn't hold back at all. Grabbing the makeshift branch chopsticks, they dove into the feast heartily.

"This grilled fish is so delicious!"

"Seriously, this is the best grilled fish I've ever had in my life!"

The beauties couldn't stop raving about the fish that Daniel had grilled. As Victoria noticed that Daniel hadn't eaten a bite, her heart softened, and she promptly offered a piece of fish to him.

"Here, try a bite."

"Thank you, Victoria," Daniel replied appreciatively, savoring the tasty morsel.

"Is it good?"

"Mm-hmm, very good!"

"If you like it, I'll feed you some more!"

As Victoria reached out to feed him again, Beauty interrupted swiftly, snapping a branch in half to fashion a simple fork, which she handed to Daniel with a stern command.

Smart glanced at the fish bones scattered on the ground, the crackling fire, and the vine bed set up in the cave. With a scornful "Tsk," he pronounced proudly, "Have you all been reduced to such a state of hunger that you had to resort to eating fish? I offered both of you ladies a chance to join me earlier. If you had, there’d have been no need to settle for poor grilled fish. We could be dining on exquisite French cuisine instead!"

Additionally, Smart boasted about the amenities he had brought with him. "We've got large tents, you know. Even out here in the woods, they can set up a hundred-square-foot living space with bedrooms, a living room, and even a shower area. It's no match for home comfort, but it's pretty good for the wilderness."

Meanwhile, Smart's crew was already busily setting up camp by the river bank—cooking, pitching tents, preparing to stay the night. Clearly, Smart intended to lure Beauty and Victoria away from the primitive comforts of the vine bed in the cave to the luxuries of his tent, and then he would...

With a sly chuckle, he entertained his own thoughts.

Daniel saw through Smart's plan in an instant. However, instead of exposing him, he decided it was time to offer a warning—a chance for Smart to pull back before it was too late.
