Demons Beside You

It was a demon even bigger than Beelzebub Zofee. Jessica stared at the demon that had suddenly broken in with a grave expression.

“You can’t beat me,” the huge demon mocked. “You’re a Banshee. Your attack is useless against me.”

The demon lowered his head and saw Chen Zhao on the ground. “Oh, a soul? No…a living being?”

He reached out a claw and picked Chen Zhao up. Chen Zhao was like a little chick before this demon.

Right now, he was already pale with fear. He grabbed a handful of angelic crystals without thinking and tossed it at the demon’s mouth.

The demon didn’t realize what it was and even chewed it. The next moment, he felt unprecedented pain.

Roar!

Chen Zhao was tossed into the air. He picked himself up, a bit pathetically. The huge demon clutched his mouth and writhed on the ground.

Just then, Beelzebub Zofee appeared from the hole in the back. Seeing the wailing demon on the ground, he was overjoyed.

“Good. Great job.”

Zofee wasn’t even one-third of the huge demon’s size, but he was still a superior demon. He was definitely stronger than this demon.

Zofee landed on the huge demon to check his injuries. He discovered that the demon’s mouth had melted away. It was covered in burns.

“Oh? Angelic crystals?” Beelzebub Zofee was shocked. “Human, you have angelic crystals?”

“Yeah.”

“How many did you shove into Stonehammer?” Zofee said, feeling regretful. “This is a complete waste.”

“Lord, if you need it, I can gift you some.”

Chen Zhao took out more than 100 angelic crystals. Zofee and Jessica both stepped back instinctively.

“Quickly put them back. All those angelic crystals are so painful.”

To demons, facing angelic crystals was like humans facing nuclear weapons. Chen Zhao hurriedly put them away and looked up.

“I can only supply this much. Is it useful?”

“Yes, very useful!” Zofee said excitedly. “It’s a waste against inferior demons, but for a superior demon like the one under my feet, three crystals will take away his combat ability. With all of your crystals, I can take out Logan.”

“But you can’t even get close to it. How do you take out your enemies?”

Beelzebub Zofee grinned. “I can’t touch it, but that doesn’t mean I can’t use it. I only have to wrap it in demon gold and create a badge.”

“Okay, I won’t get into your fight with your neighbors. I’ll just provide the angelic crystals.”

“Jessica, call over all the artisans in Obsidian City.”

The demons that had broken into Obsidian Castle were quickly forced back. They’d also lost a superior demon.

According to Zofee, this demon was called Stonehammer. He was a powerful general under Lord Logan.

He was the same level as Jessica, but Jessica wasn’t a combat demon. What she could do in a battle like this was limited. The only superior demons in Obsidian City were Zofee and Orris, but they were powerful enough to completely defeat the other party.

This was also why Logan didn’t attack even after all this time. If he did, he would definitely be attacked by both Zofee and Orris.

Right now, he only sent his general to erode Orris’ strength.

Beelzebub Zofee didn’t attack so he could preserve his abilities.

…

The battle lasted for a few hours and the two sides stopped to rest. Orris returned to Obsidian Castle, covered in injuries, and returned to human form.

“Human, you’re here.” Orris didn’t care about her injuries.

“Let me treat you,” Chen Zhao said, walking over.

“Sure.” Orris nodded.

Orris lay down before Chen Zhao. To be honest, overlooking her figure, she was quite pretty. Of course, Chen Zhao wouldn’t have any inappropriate thoughts about Orris. She was a dragon!

“Drink this.” Chen Zhao handed her a specially-made bottle of demonic crystal potion.

Orris drank it and her eyes brightened. “This contains demonic crystals? You’re really generous.”

“How do you feel?”

“Not bad. I recovered some energy, but compared to what I exerted, it’s not enough.”

Chen Zhao thought for a moment and took out a perfect crystal potion. “Try this bottle.”

Orris took another sip. A hot wave suddenly rolled off of her. Chen Zhao hurriedly jumped aside.

“Perfect crystal?!”

“Yes, it contains some perfect crystals.”

“How much more of this do you have right now?”

“Just this much.” Chen Zhao handed some bottles to her.

“I’ll take it now. Jot it down,” Orris said. “When Zofee and I get rid of Logan, we’ll pay you.”

“I’ll just give it to you. After all, I came because I need help and you sacrificed so much to summon me to Hell.”

“Compared to your bottles of potion, the cost of summoning can’t even be mentioned.”

Orris finished the bottle of perfect crystals. She’d completely recovered.

When Chen Zhao treated humans with demonic crystals, he had to dilute it a dozen times and prescribe it bit by bit. If it was a bit too much, it could cause serious consequences.

But Orris was a superior demon. She could eat perfect crystals like they were snacks. Of course, even she couldn’t be so wasteful.

Even as the lord’s wife, she still didn’t have perfect crystals.

“Oh, right. Why are you fighting with that lord named Logan?”

“That bastard learned that Zofee has the Spring of Youth so he came to steal it, but he’s up against a hard match. Zofee and I aren’t easy to bully.”

This sounded normal. Logan was a superior demon himself, at the same level as Zofee. Orris was also a superior demon, so in terms of power, Logan had already lost.

To welcome Chen Zhao, Orris and Zofee roasted a few more wyvern. To them, wyvern were just normal beasts of prey. They could be ridden occasionally. When they weren’t needed, they could be put on the table as dinner.

Chen Zhao could see Orris and Zofee’s appetite now. Chen Zhao’s entire family and Amon in the sea had been eating for half a month and they still had half of the wyvern left.

But right now, the few wyverns before Orris and Zofee were only for one meal.
