The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 524 Stone Cold Sober

Yet, Finn had counted to three and shouted "Down!", but Daniel didn't collapse. He was standing tall and steady.

Seeing Daniel perfectly upright with no sign of falling, Finn's eyes widened in disbelief. "How... how are you still standing?" he asked in astonishment.

"Did you think that after drinking your Five Grains Spirit, I'd just flop to the ground after three seconds?" Daniel chuckled, spinning his tale. “I grew up in a village, you know, and I’ve always had quite the tolerance. Even our village drunk couldn't outdrink me. One time, I challenged the old boozer—jug for jug—and we emptied the tavern's cellar. The old drunk passed out, but I walked away clear-headed."

No sooner had Daniel finished bragging than Beauty reached out and gave his waist a painful twist.

"Ouch! Why'd you twist me this time?" Daniel winced in pain and asked.

"Intending to get even a drunk ghost wasted? What exactly did you do to him after that?" Beauty demanded.

"What could I possibly do to him? It’s just a drunken spirit, not the beautiful you. But if you gave me a chance to get you drunk, who knows? Maybe there might be something I could do."

"Something you could do? What exactly do you have in mind, you no-good jerk?" Beauty was incensed.

"Don’t get worked up! What I’d do would make you happy, real comfy. I'd bet you’d want me to keep going!" he teased her.

"Keep spouting nonsense and I'll end you, idiot!" Beauty threatened.

"And how exactly would you end me?" Daniel provoked. "Do you have a certain position in mind to take me out? Should I just lie there and let 'Beauty' have her way, or give you a little reaction?"

"Get lost!"

...

Their playful bickering was ignored by Finn, who felt that he was being slighted. He felt a great deal of humiliation in that moment.
