Chapter 829 Not My Problem



Jax snapped out of his confusion and pointed a finger at Daniel, demanding, "Dumbass, did you make that black hoof attack me?"

"Now, Jax, let's not jump to conclusions here. I didn't make the black hoof attack you. Remember, you saw me stop it from hitting you! I helped you out, and now you accuse me of wronging you? Isn't that a bit ungrateful? If I'd known this would be your reaction, I might've let the black hoof smack you until your face looked like a pig's head!" Daniel said, half-joking, half-serious.

Jax was skeptical. He still suspected Daniel was behind the hoof's attack but had no concrete proof.

Deciding to take a different approach, he slyly asked, "So you told it not to attack me, and it stopped? Does that mean the black hoof listens to your orders?"

"Yep!" Daniel nodded. "It does listen to me."

"Ha ha ha ha..." Jax burst out laughing, then pointed at Daniel's nose and questioned, "Dumbass, you just admitted it!"Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

"Admitted what?" Daniel asked, puzzled.

"You admitted that the black hoof follows your orders. So, it attacked me on your command! You used the hoof to attack me—that's assault on an officer!" Jax accused.

Jax being a senior member of her team, Chloe couldn't just ignore his complaint. She turned to Daniel with a stern expression.

"Troublemaker, tell me the truth. Did

you use the black hoof to mess with Jax? If you admit it honestly, I won't arrest you. I'll just give you a stern warning. But if you lie and I find out the truth, the consequences will be severe!" Chloe warned.

"Chloe, are you playing good cop, bad cop with me? I know all about those tactics! But even though I understand your game, I won't fall for it. Still, I'm an honest guy. The black hoof attacked Jax on its

own it has nothing to do win me. After all, Jax questioned the boar's will, not my will."

Realizing his words sounded off, Daniel quickly corrected himself, "Wait, that doesn't make sense! I'm not dead yet, and I plan to live another million years, so no need for a will from me!"

His correction caused a moment of awkward silence. Chloe gave him a mixed look of frustration and amusement, still not entirely convinced by his explanations but uncertain of his intent.
