The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 303

"How about we call it 'The Concubine'? What do you think, dear?"

"Am I 'The Concubine'? Then who is the emperor?"

"That would be me, of course!"

"Idiot, you want to be the emperor? Do you also want to marry a bunch of concubines?"

"Absolutely!"

"I should kick you to death!" Jessica retorted sharply and aimed another playful kick at Daniel.

Her kick wasn't strong but Daniel still stumbled back, landing with a flop onto the cushy couch.

Giggling uncontrollably, Jessica found teasing this idiot way too fun.

"Do you want to become a widow or something? You almost kicked me to death and now you're laughing so uncontrollably?"

"Who are you calling uncontrollable? A widow? Are you even worth it? If you died, I’d remarry in a heartbeat. I certainly won’t waste a single day!"

"If you dare marry someone else, I’ll haunt you as a ghost every night by your bed. Anyone who dares marry you, I’ll scare to death!"

"If you dare haunt my bed, I'll beat you with a crucifix!"

"You’d hit a ghost? Aren’t you afraid of me?"

"I'm not afraid of you turning into a ghost, or a demon for that matter!"

Jessica wasn’t joking at all; she truly wasn’t afraid of Daniel. She believed that even if this idiot turned into a demon, he could never harm her—she trusted him. It was her faith in this idiot.

"Got the lighter, now what are you up to?"

Daniel lit two of 'The Concubine' masks on fire. The flames burning from the masks were red and blue respectively.

"Do you see the problem?"

"The flames are different colors."

"Yeah! Both of these are from 'The Concubine', from the same batch produced on the same date, but the flames they produce are different colors. Why is that, do you think?"

"How should I know? Stop talking in riddles and tell me why! If you don't, I'm going to punch you!"

Jessica raised her fist threateningly, assuming a fierce stance to pressure Daniel into explaining.
