The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 612 Another Chance Cane Gold was speechless after Daniel's brazen response, and after a moment of silence, they arrived at the first challenge: the Mountain of Blades. Daniel sized up what was in front of him; it was simply a fake mountain made of rocks, barely thirty meters tall-about the height of a ten-story building. Though it seemed steep, Daniel deemed it a mild climb and certainly not too difficult.

After examining the fake mountain, Daniel couldn't help but scoff, "This is the Mountain of Blades?" "Do you see the green hat on top of the mountain? You need to retrieve it, put it on your head, and if you cback down safely, you pass the challenge," said Cane Gold.

Daniel glanced at the green hat, which had the word 'cuckold' inscribed in small letters.

"What's this? I'm supposed to wear a cuckold's cap for the Blade Mountain challenge? No way! Only a certain kind of man likes wearing green hats, and I'm not one of them." "You're not going to wear the green hat?" Cane Gold inquired.

"Absolutely not!" "Are you sure you won't wear it?" "Positive!" Daniel's answers were firm and decisive.

"Since you refuse the green hat, then wear the red one." After speaking, Cane Gold approached the mountain and pressed on a couple of spots. In under half a minute following his action, the once thirty-meter-high fake mountain stretched to over one hundred meters in height. Atop it was affixed a pole with a little red hat.

"Here's your next choice: green hat or red hat?" Cane Gold challenged him.

This little trick was a ploy to embarrass Daniel, to coax him into willingly choosing the green hat under pressure. In reality, whichever hat Daniel chose, the difficulty would be the same. Once activated, the fake mountain would constantly move and transform in no unpredictable ways. Brute force wouldn't be enough to scale it; mastery over magical forces was necessary, as every change on the mountain was driven by witchcraft.

Daniel wasn't only an adept in magical arts but also possessed Dragon Eyes. With a single glance, he understood the entire nature of the Blade Mountain.

He knew that whether he chose the green or red hat, the end result would be the same. So, he smirked and said How could a splendid man likewear a green hat? If anyone's going to be wearing one, I'd be the one giving it, not wearing it myself. So, I'll take the red hat." Upon hearing his words, Beauty asked with a teasing smile, "Country boy, who do you plan to bestow a green hat upon?" "Anyone bold enough to marry you will receive one from me. I might not do it every day, but ten or eight times a month-no problem." "You... I... I'll kick you to death!" Furious, Beauty delivered a kick to Daniel's backside, sending him tumbling face first into the dirt.

"My dear, I give you double the pleasure and you kick me?" "Get lost! Dirty jerk! Talk nonsense again, and I'll tear your mouth off!" Beauty was so angered, she could have pummeled him then and there.
