The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 410 One Shot

Soldier was escalating the difficulty from first to third grade math with the introduction of brackets. Seeing the problem, Beauty frowned with displeasure, "Are you trying to find a loophole? How could a hen solve such a difficult math problem?"

Daniel burst into laughter upon seeing the question. "No worries, Beauty. By demanding this, Soldier just wants to prove that he has lower intelligence than a chicken!"

Enraged by the insinuation, Soldier retorted, "Country kid, don’t insult me! You think I, a commanding officer, have lower intelligence than a chicken?"

"Even if you are an officer, your IQ might still be lower than a chicken! Why don’t you try competing against the hen?"

"How would we compete?"

"By solving math problems. It answers one question, then you answer another."

"Okay!" Soldier was quick to agree because he had a plan in mind.

"If the hen loses, that means you lose. I only win if the hen does."

That was Soldier's strategy. Although he'd essentially lost earlier, Daniel gave him a chance to turn the tables, and he intended to seize it.

Beauty was sharp enough to see through Soldier's façade. "You’re trying to outsmart a hen in math?"

"It was the country kid’s idea; he wants to bet like this. Either he’s scared and his words mean nothing, or we continue." Soldier was goading Daniel, afraid the other man might back down.
