Demons Beside You

Forget it... They can do whatever they want.

Looking at these naive girls, Chen Zhao could not bear to tell them the truth.

He would rather let them live in their own world.

Chen Zhao left the stadium. Eveleigh found him.

“Why are you here? Are you not watching the competition?”

“I’m a sports idiot... I’m not interested in the competition,” Chen Zhao said lightly.

Eveleigh was speechless. What did the sports monster, someone who could break world records at any time, just tell her?

“Your words will make all the athletes in the world feel ashamed of themselves.”

“By the way... You see those girls?” Chen Zhao pointed at the UCSF female swimming team in the distance.

“Why? You like one of them?”

“If any of them is in the same pool as you, beat the shit out of them.”

“Did they make you angry?”

“They just taunted me.”

Eveleigh glanced at Chen Zhao. “What a narrow-minded person you are.”

Meow, meow...

Eveleigh lowered her head. The little cat that Chen Zhao would usually carry ran to his feet with a sausage in his mouth.

“Why did you just leave him on campus? Aren’t you afraid that he’ll go missing?”

“I really hope that he’ll go missing,” Chen Zhao said, unconcerned.

Unless Chen Zhao threw Samuel into outer space, it was almost impossible to get rid of Samuel.

“I’m leaving. Bye.” Chen Zhao lifted Samuel up, who wiggled in his arms.

“I’ve just gotten myself another believer. Do you see it? It’s an offering from my believer. Do you see it?”

“How many believers do you have here?”

“Seven, no, it’s eight.”

“It seems like you need to work harder. You’ve taken another big step toward ruling the world.”

“What’s this thing called?” Samuel asked, pointing to the sausage in his mouth.

“Sausage.”

“Add this to our deal earlier.”

“When will you summon me to Hell?”

“I need some time to prepare.”

“Prepare what? It wasn’t this troublesome when Obitos’ father summoned me to Hell. He could do it anytime.”

“Obitos’ father is just a great lord, but I’m a demon king. Of course, I need my grandeur.”

“Don’t tell me you’re going to welcome me with a demon army?”

“No, it’s just building a castle.”

“Building a castle? For what?”

“As my palace, of course.”

“Where do you normally stay?”

“The Dark Forest. It’ll be too embarrassing to summon you there.”

Chen Zhao roughly got it. The place Samuel usually lived in was too desolate.

Samuel would build a temporary castle to save his face.

“How long do you need?”

“A few days, perhaps.”

“How big will it be? It won’t just be a cottage, will it?”

“Are you humiliating me, the king?”

“How do I dare to?”

“Your face is telling me that you do.”

Chen Zhao planned to change the topic. “Do you hardly leave the Dark Forest?”

“Almost never,” Samuel answered.

It was no wonder Samuel looked very much like a provincial, even a village idiot.

“Then what if your subordinates want to see you?”

“Simple, just send a demon who can speak very fast to see me.”

“Why must the demon be able to speak fast?”

“If he speaks too slowly, he might be eaten by me before he finishes.”

“...”

Suddenly, Chen Zhao bumped into a passerby, but the passerby was definitely at a disadvantage.

“Sorry,” the person apologized first.

Chen Zhao observed the person. He was big in size and did not look like a commoner.

Chen Zhao inspected him because the person who last bumped into Chen Zhao had caused him a whole lot of trouble.

The road was wide and empty. Either both of them were not looking in front or the man wanted to do something.

Meow!

Chen Zhao suddenly pulled the person. “Return my wallet to me.”

The man’s face changed. “Who took your wallet?”

Just then, he moved his arm and seized Chen Zhao’s hands instead, wanting to lock his hands.

However, Chen Zhao was stronger than he expected. Chen Zhao’s hands did not move at all.

When the man realized that he could not move Chen Zhao, he kicked Chen Zhao’s knee with his shoe.

Chen Zhao still did not move. Actually, the force was not even as big as when Princess playfully ran into him.

When the person realized that his attack was again ineffective, he hit Chen Zhao’s stomach with his elbow.

Chen Zhao was finally enraged. Are you playing acrobatics with me?!

Chen Zhao grabbed the man’s neck and struck the man’s forehead with his.

Thud...

The person collapsed at once. Chen Zhao found his wallet on him.

After a while, a girl and a group of tall men approached the fallen man.

They helped their friend to get up from the ground, but he was still in a daze.

Rena was very displeased. “Harrow, why are you so useless? Aren’t you a former elite from SEAL? And then? You failed.”

“Miss, he’s an excellent fighter,” Harrow said, looking wronged.

“I don’t care. Think of a solution for me now! I want revenge. You promised that you’ll help me, but you only made me angrier!”

“Miss, he’s really strong. We’re definitely no match for him unless all of us go at the same time.”

“Then all of you deal with him together. There’s gotta be a way.”

“Miss, if we fight in the city, it’ll cause a lot of trouble for you.”

“Then how? Wait for him to go somewhere deserted? I don’t have that much time.”

“Miss, according to our findings, he appears to be a UCLA lecturer, but he’s actually an illegal doctor.”

“So what? Are we going to collect evidence and then send him to the police station?”

“No, we can use his intermediary to trick him out of the city. By then, we can deal with him in whatever way we please.”

“Great, very good idea. Go and do it, quick.”

“Miss, where should we bring him to?”

“The sea. Isn’t he a swimming coach? I’ll let him swim all he wants. Harrow, prepare me a yacht.”

“Miss, you should not show up. If he sees you, he might sue you.”

“No, I want to see him beg me.”
