The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 806 Save Me Now!

Even as Nathan confidently spoke, he turned his head to look back.

"FUCK!"

Seeing the ghostly boy, Nathan screamed and collapsed to the ground, completely drained of strength. He attempted to stand up and run, but his legs just wouldn't cooperate.

As Nathan sat there, trembling, the boy immediately crawled onto his chest, making himself comfortable.

The boy then took one of his large, rough hands and pulled a wriggling maggot from his rotting face, offering it to Nathan. With his other hand, he pointed at his own mouth.

The boy's actions left Nathan paralyzed with fear.

"Get... get away from me!"

"How can he get away? He's sitting on your chest, offering you a delicacy from his face!" Daniel joked, clearly enjoying the situation.

"Hick, quit joking around and save me! You're supposed to be so powerful, aren't you? Do something!"

Nathan was genuinely desperate now.

“Oh, come on, Nathan. I asked if you wanted a protection spell earlier, but you said no. If you didn't need my help then, why would you need it now? So, I'll just let you deal with it on your own."

"Brittany, we were college buddies, right? Please, ask him to save me!”

Realizing that pleading with Daniel was futile, Nathan turned his desperation toward Brittany. He knew she couldn't stand to see someone in distress and wouldn't ignore his plea. Instead of asking the ruthless hick, he'd beg his kind-hearted former classmate.

The ghostly boy opened his mouth, revealing sharp fangs, and leaned in to bite Nathan's neck. Brittany, desperate, shouted at Daniel, "Hick, save him!"

"I'm not obligated to follow your orders, am I? I'm not your man. But if I save him, you owe me one."

"Just do it!"

Brittany nudged Daniel with her knee, pushing him forward.

The ghost boy noticed Daniel advancing and leaped at him.

"A ghost attacking me?" Daniel casually snapped a tree branch and swung it at the incoming ghost. Smack!

He hit the ghost square on its back, knocking it to the ground.

"Owwww..."

The ghost let out a tortured wail before dissolving into a puff of black smoke.

With the ghost gone, Nathan clambered up, still shaky. His pants were slightly damp-he'd wet himself out of fear. “Nathan, do you believe in ghosts now?" Daniel asked with a smirk.

"Where's the ghost? I didn't see any ghost.

Brittany just sighed, relieved that the immediate danger had passed, but bemused by Nathan's obstinacy. She couldn't decide if his denial was out of genuine disbelief or sheer pride. Either way, she knew just got a whole lot more complicated.
