Demons Beside You

Just as everyone thought that Chen Zhao was definitely dead, a bronze sword suddenly broke out of the black bug’s body.

It cut out and up. A large amount of black liquid sprayed out of the cut in the insect.

Chen Zhao walked out in a messy state. ‘F*ck, f*ck… So smelly.”

“Chen, are you okay?”

“Don’t come over. Don’t touch me.”

“Chen, what’s wrong?”

“You can’t touch the liquid on me.”

“Why?”

Crack—

Suddenly, everyone heard a strange sound as if something had cracked apart.

“What’s that sound?”

Everyone looked around, but they couldn’t find where the sound came from.

Crack, crack—

“I think it came from under our feet,” Haus said.

Chen Zhao looked down. “I hate this feeling…”

Cr-crack, boom!

In an instant, the entire floor shattered and everyone fell down, screaming.

Cough, cough…”Charlotte, Alyss, Cindy, you alright?”

Chen Zhao waved away the dust in the air. Thankfully, the theater wasn’t too high up.

“Chen…help me…”

Chen Zhao saw Charlotte. Her thigh was under a wooden beam and she couldn’t move.

Chen Zhao pushed the beam aside and pulled Charlotte up. “How are you? Can you walk?”

“It’s okay. I’m okay.”

Chen Zhao found Cindy, standing unsteadily, and then Alyss.

They had different injuries, but they weren’t too serious.

Then Chen Zhao saw Hannah and Haus hugging each other and crying.

“We’re gonna die here… We’re gonna die.”

“If I’d known, I wouldn’t have come here. I still have so much money. I don’t want to die.” Haus was about to have a mental breakdown too.

“Stop crying!” Chen Zhao yelled in annoyance. “You aren’t dead yet.”

But the two were still crying and getting sadder and sadder.

Suddenly, a huge black shadow approached in the dust, accompanied by heavy footsteps.

Haus and Hannah stopped crying instantly.

“Come, try crying some more.”

The two stopped. They stared at the approaching shadow with fear in their eyes.

The dust settled gradually, revealing the true form of the shadow.

It had black skin, a burly figure, a pair of wings on its back, and two horns on its head.

A demon! It was exactly like those in stories.

More specifically, this should be called a phobic demon.

Charlotte, Alyss, and Cindy immediately got into ready stances.

But they realized that their manas were suppressed.

Their strengths were cut in half at least.

“Chen… Our mana got repressed. How can this be?” Charlotte cried out in panic. If they were repressed, then Chen Zhao probably wasn’t any better.

Chen Zhao sniffed the air. He smelled a familiar scent.

It was a smell from Hell…

F*ck, this ship couldn’t really be cruising toward Hell, right?

“A Deathbringer? There’s a Deathbringer here?” The phobic demon saw Blackie.

“Phobic demon, why are you here?” Chen Zhao looked at it.

The two were talking in the demon language, so the others couldn’t understand at all.

“What do I see here? A human who speaks the demon’s language?” The phobic demon looked at him in surprise.

Chen Zhao took out his bronze sword. Why did this make him feel like he was in Hell?”

“A human who knows the demon’s language and a demon in the human world. Which one is stranger?”

“This isn’t the human world.”

Without warning, the phobic demon opened its arms and charged at Chen Zhao.

Chen Zhao waved his sword. The blade hit the demon’s fist but it couldn’t cut in at all. However, the demon also couldn’t budge.

Their strengths were equal!

Everyone gaped at Chen Zhao. He could counter that demon?

“Not bad.” Looking at Chen Zhao, the demon’s eyes suddenly glared and a laser shot out of them.

Chen Zhao used the Dark Serum to immediately raise up a wall and blocked the demon’s laser.

“Power from the King of Wrath? You actually have the King of Wrath’s power too? No wonder you aren’t restricted.”

It felt stranger and stranger to Chen Zhao. He definitely couldn’t remain here.

His Eye of Power opened and his power multiplied.

With a roar, he brought the sword down on the demon again.

The demon swung its fist again. This time, the fist hit the sword and the demon was the one at a loss.

It was sent flying by Chen Zhao’s abnormal strength. Eyes gleaming dangerously, Chen Zhao attacked the demon with the Dark Serum again.

The demon stood up in a panic, but the Dark Serum was on him already. It tried to seep into the demon’s mouth too.

It didn’t dare to let the Dark Serum into its body, but just then, Chen Zhao’s sword came down again.

It twisted its head to the side and the sword cut down on the demon’s horn.

Hiss!

The horn was cut off by Chen Zhao’s sword.

Charlotte and the others all cried out. They didn’t expect that Chen Zhao could be this terrifying.

That was a demon!

Something from legends.

But Chen Zhao was crushing it.

“Ah!” The demon let out a pained cry.

The instant that it opened its mouth, Dark Serum flooded into its body.

The serum went wild in its body, putting it in extreme pain.

Chen Zhao raised his sword again and waved it with all his might.

This time, he hit the demon’s neck precisely.

The phobic demon stared at Chen Zhao in disbelief.

It never would’ve guessed that it would die in the hands of a human.

Haus and Hannah stared at Chen Zhao in disbelief too. Their eyes were filled with respect.

But after the demon’s head was cut off, it still wasn’t dead.

“You can’t escape. This is inside Lord Liso Beria’s body. You’ll all die in here.”

Liso Beria… So, he was a subordinate of the King of Sloth Beria, like Amon?

This phobic demon said that they were inside Liso Beria. In other words, this ship was Liso Beria’s body?

“Chen Zhao, this ship has a spirit,” Blackie said. “It’s possessed by a demon’s soul.”

“Can you drag the demon’s soul out?”

“No, he’s alive.”

But the restrictions on Charlotte, Alyss, and Cindy from the rules of Hell were even more obvious.

A demon would be restricted by the human world. Similarly, humans would be restricted in Hell too.

Chen Zhao got an idea. Perhaps Amon could find him.

Amon had come on this family trip too.

However, he went by sea and swam a few thousand kilometers.

Chen Zhao tried to search for Amon. Surprisingly, he’d never been able to sense Amon so clearly before.

“Amon, track me down and come help me.”
