Demons Beside You

No matter how slow Normans was, she would have realized by now that Chen Zhao had definitely done something to her.

She always had a great appetite. Normally, she would eat an apple every five minutes.

However, since she met Chen Zhao, she had not eaten anything.

She tried to eat twice, but on both occasions she felt nauseous.

“Now you have an intense appetite again, right?” A smile appeared on Chen Zhao’s face.

“What do you want from me?”

“What do you think?”

“If I complete the training today, I can eat all I want, right?”

“Of course.”

Chen Zhao smiled. Clearly he would not let Normans eat all she could.

Actually, he would in fact let Normans eat whatever she wanted, as long as she could physically swallow them.

“What’s the training today?”

“Simple. Run for a kilometer.”

It was only the start. A one kilometer run was really very easy.

Even with Normans’ weight, she could achieve the goal as long as she persisted.

Actually, Chen Zhao could have made Normans slim down with just Beelzebub’s ability.

However, if she slimmed down so much by not eating food, her body would become extremely unhealthy.

Therefore, she had to exercise too. It could speed up the slimming process and at the same time make her healthier.

“You have to exercise with me too. You have to do whatever I do.”

“Fine.”

As long as Normans was willing to cooperate, Chen Zhao was willing to train with her.

He did this only for the four hundred thousand pay.

It was something Chen Zhao could not say no to.

“Do I start now?”

“Let’s start.”

One kilometer was really nothing to Chen Zhao.

With his stamina, he was more than strong enough to run a marathon.

Nonetheless, the power of a foodaholic was limitless. In order to eat whatever she wanted, Normans persisted for the entire journey.

Actually, to a person who weighed 140 kilograms, a one kilometer run was already very exhausting.

She was about as heavy as two normal adult men, after all. After they finished the run, Normans immediately asked, “Can I eat now?”

“Of course. That’s the end of today’s training. I’ll be back again tomorrow, however, so you better be ready.”

“Can I eat all I want?”

“Sure.” Chen Zhao only asked Beelzebub to give Normans a bit of appetite, so she would definitely not be able to eat too much. The feast that Normans had been fantasizing about was destined to be a mere illusion.

Mr. Doman brought Chen Zhao to the front door. “Mr. Chen, are you sure you don’t need a driver to send you back?”

“Nope. My friends live nearby, so I’m going to drop by their house.”

“Alright then. Thank you again for what you did for Normans. To be frank, the amount of exercise she did today is more than what she had done in the last three years combined.”

“No problem. I’m getting paid anyway.”

Chen Zhao left Mr. Doman’s manor with his pets. Walking on the street, they still managed to attract countless eyes.

After all, the Silly Twins, as well as Obitos, were really too eye-catching.

Many tourists along the way stopped to watch the pets. Some even thought that Chen Zhao was a street artist.

Chen Zhao found Rasfa’s manor and was quickly invited in.

“Chen, welcome.” Rasfa was still shocked by Chen Zhao’s entire family of pets. “That’s a lot of pets. Why don’t you give Beelzebub and Carrie to me? I’ll take good care of them for you.”

“I’m afraid I’ll have to say no.” Chen Zhao shook his head. “I was nearby just now, so I came here to check your health condition.”

“Paul, pour Chen a glass of wine.”

“You know that I don’t drink during work.”

“Alright. After you finish the examination then.”

Half an hour later, Chen Zhao finished the check-up.

“Remove your shirt and lie on the sofa. I’m going to dredge your meridians.”

Rasfa had full trust in Chen Zhao. In fact, they had turned from enemies into friends.

Precisely because of their initial conflict, Rasfa trusted Chen Zhao even more.

“Stay here for dinner. I’ll ask the kitchen to cook one more portion.”

“Sure.”

In the evening, Zola, Daniel, and Manny came as well.

Daniel was thrilled by Chen Zhao’s extra pets, namely the Silly Twins and Obitos.

He now really believed that Chen Zhao was a Druid.

After dinner, Chen Zhao and Daniel lied on the chairs on the beach.

Although Daniel’s injuries from that accident had long recovered, it was a huge psychological trauma for him.

Even now, he still did not dare to go into the sea.

Instead, he could only watch the group of pets enjoy themselves on the beach. Black-Ma and White-Ma were the most excited among them.

They had not enjoyed themselves enough on Angel Beach last time.

Now, they could finally run on the beach and play in the sea all they wanted.

“Chen, they’re not Alaskan Malamutes, are they?”

“They’re wolves. That’s Black-Ma, and that’s White-Ma.”

“Even as wolves, they’re a bit too big, right?”

“They’re special.”

“Then how about Obitos? What breed of lizard is it? Komodo? I don’t think there’s red Komodo dragons. Is it a mutant? Also, its head looks somewhat... weird.”

“It has a special bloodline. Stop asking about it...”

Suddenly, Daniel stood up and looked at Black-Ma and White-Ma who had been playing in the sea.

“Is there something beside them?”

Chen Zhao also stood up and looked at them. However, because they were really far away, he could not see anything clearly.

All of a sudden, Chen Zhao seemed to notice a huge fin above the sea.

He immediately charged towards the Silly Twins, removing his shirt in the process.

“Chen, no! It’s dangerous!”

Daniel wanted to stop Chen Zhao, but Chen Zhao was too fast. He had already bolted into the sea.

However, Chen Zhao was still too late. White-Ma was already attacked.

White-Ma suddenly felt his body sink down. Something was dragging him into the water.

If the demon pet attacked was Beelzebub, Raymond, or Carrie instead, Chen Zhao would not be so anxious, because they were mere projections, not true forms.

Even if they died, Chen Zhao would not be that worried.

However, the Silly Twins were different. Their actual bodies had come to the human world.

They were indeed demons, but they were not invincible.

They would similarly be injured and die should they receive sufficient damage.

On land, when the two of them were together, they could perhaps fight with most terrestrial organisms.

In the sea, however, there were too many things that could kill them.

Realizing that White-ma had been attacked, Black-Ma also dived into the water at once.

Chen Zhao swam towards the Silly Twins with all his might, praying that he could make it in time.
