The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 865

As soon as Daniel recited his incantation, he noticed bloodshot veins filling Dog's eyes.

Then—

Wow!

Dog spat out a mouthful of blood.

After the blood left his mouth, Dog felt as if his very essence had been drained away. He looked at Daniel with shock and disbelief. “You scoundrel, what did you do to me?”

“I didn’t do anything! I just returned the favor—blood for blood, eye for eye! You used a spell to take my soul, so I used one right back at you! Let’s see whose spell is more powerful!” Daniel replied, his tone playful.

“Wow…”

After another bout of coughing up blood, Dog asked incredulously, “What do you mean? Are you saying the spell you just cast was to take my soul?”

“Yup!” Daniel nodded, a grin spreading across his face. “That’s exactly what I did! If you don’t believe me, I can recite another part so you can see how my soul-taking spell feels!”

“Scoundrel, what are you playing at? You trying to act tough?” Dog demanded.

“Absolutely! Since you’re using your spell on me, shouldn’t I be allowed to give it right back? If you’re going this route, then bring it on! You cast your spell, and I’ll cast mine! Let’s see whose spell performs better!”

Daniel casually stuffed his hands into his pockets, wearing an expression that clearly showed he didn’t take Dog seriously at all.
