The Understated Dragon Lord
Chapter 865 Better Version

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.

Dog was infuriated by such mockery from someone he considered inferior. His nostrils flared with ire!

Taking a moment to compose himself, Dog willed himself back into focus. Almost instantly, he felt stronger, ready for another fight. "Hmph!"

He coldly smiled before turning to Daniel. "You want to fight, huh? Well, let's see how well you can handle yourself! I'll show you which spell is the better version!"

"Dog, the way you talk, it sounds like you have a high opinion of yourself. But are you really that strong?

You've lived for decades, yet youn et

can't even gauge your own abilities? You've aged all this time, and you're stiffa fool!"

"You bastard! Did you just call me a fool? I'll show you just how powerful I am! Today, I will take your soul and turnat into a ghost, making sure you

disappear from this world ent

With that, Dog swung his skeleton sword with growing intensity.

He began chanting another spell, and this time it wasn't a soul-taking incantation; it was a spell meant to summon evil spirits.

As he cast the spell, eerie sounds filled the air, turning the once quiet surroundings into a cacophony.

Then, ugly heads began to appear from the honeycomb-like holes in the ceiling.

These weren't just any ghosts; they were evil spirits, fully trained and possessing greater combat prowess than common ghosts.

With their wild howls, the emerging spirits jumped down, swarming toward Daniel like a pack of feral dogs, ready to tear him apart piece by piece!
