The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 742

"Meow..." The little kitten let out a milky cry and then struggled to get up, attempting to pounce on the grass once again. It failed just as before, tumbling backwards onto the ground.

Suddenly, the air thickened, and everyone held their breath. The golden Spirit Cat had appeared atop the tree above Daniel. Indeed, The Spirit Cat was a pair—one gold, one silver—the golden cat being the mother, and the silver one the father.

The golden cat fixed its gaze on Daniel, particularly on the nape of his neck. It seemed poised to pounce and snap his neck with its razor-sharp teeth.

"Country boy, you’ve been caught playing with its kitten. Now its mother is watching you, and she’s pondering how exactly to kill you," Smart warned gleefully, not out of kindness, but out of a desire to see the show unfold. He hoped to witness Daniel being devoured by the golden cat, preying on Daniel's sense of impending doom.

"Retard, are you sure that’s a predatory look? Not a look of affection?" Daniel asked, still in good spirits.

"A look of affection? Hahaha..." Smart burst into laughter, mocking, "Country boy, surely you haven't gone mad from fear? You think that the golden cat could feel any affection for you while you’re toying with its baby? Its desire to kill you is unmistakable."

"Toying? Didn’t you see how much fun the kitten is having? It's so happy it's rolling on the ground, it’s rolled around several times already."

"It’s rolling out of happiness? I bet the golden cat will come down and make you, the country boy, roll on the ground in terror!"

"Meow!" The cat responded with another yowl, arching its back in preparation to fight. This posture indicated a readiness for combat; the golden cat had clearly identified Daniel as an enemy, a threat to its offspring.

Seeing Daniel getting attacked by the golden cat delighted Smart to no end.

"Hahaha..." He began to laugh maniacally, and after composing himself, he sneered at Daniel, "Country boy, didn’t you just say the golden cat was giving you a loving look? Is this how much it loves you?"
