The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 977

Daniel continued, “What Damian just did was still numbing you. This time, the effect might last a little longer, but because you’re facing some serious divine punishment, Aaron, your stomach is going to hurt again soon.”

“Who do you think you are, talking about divine punishment? I don’t feel any pain!” Aaron protested, tapping his stomach proudly. “I’m telling you, my stomach feels perfectly fine. Whatever Damian did seems to have fixed me!”

Just as he said that, a sharp pain shot through his belly.

He yelped in agony and rolled on the ground, squirming like a wheel in distress. “Ah... it hurts so bad! Why, Damian? You promised me that after this shot, I wouldn’t feel this pain anymore! You said you’d get rid of the parasites—but now it feels like someone is stabbing me with a knife. What’s happening?”

Damian was stunned, caught completely off guard. He genuinely had no idea why the pain had returned so swiftly.

Aaron shot back, “Ha! So if I’m lying to you, I get punished, but Damian gets a free pass? That’s a convenient story, isn’t it? So, does that make you some sort of chosen one? Are you the favorite child of the universe? That’s the implication, right?”

“Sure, if that’s how you want to see it. I guess I must be the most honest person in the world. There’s nobody more trustworthy than me,” Daniel said with a smirk.
