Demons Beside You

Chapter 251: Going To Hell Again

“Chen, your house is too small. Black-Ma and White-Ma can’t even run around. You should seriously consider giving them to me.”

“Do you know that the person who said the same thing five minutes ago was just chased out by me?”

“Uncle, I think Dad’s right. Look at poor Black-Ma and White-Ma,” Faith said as she bullied the Silly Twins.

“Faith, can you give one to Vera and me?” Ronnie suggested with a serious tone.

“Here you go. You can have White-Ma first. Tomorrow we’ll exchange,” Faith similarly answered in a serious voice.

“Mr. Risfar…”

“Call me Johnny,” Risfar said.

“Is Johnny your surname?”

“No, Risfar is my surname, but only my family calls me Johnny.”

To be honest, Risfar was really a sociable person.

He pulled Chen Zhao closer to him with just one sentence.

“Err… Is that really alright?”

Chen Zhao could not understand why Risfar was suddenly so friendly.

It was only the second time they met. They were certainly not close friends.

“Haha… Actually I’m just hoping that the next time Ronnie and Vera show up here, you won’t reject them.”

“I promise they’ll always be welcomed.”

“Uncle, how about me?” Sitting on the floor, Faith raised her head and looked at Chen Zhao in envy.

“Of course you are, too.”

“Faith, let me show you a magic.” Ronnie pulled Faith away. Then, she put her hands together and performed the thumb removal magic.

Actually, Ronnie’s performance was very unskilled and childish.

Nevertheless, Faith was still amused and cheered loudly.

“Uncle, Dad, Sister Ronnie’s performance is awesome!” Faith shouted in excitement. “Sister Ronnie, how did you remove your finger?”

“I can do it too.” Dell was the most childish person among the three adults.

In fact, he was childish in many areas. For example, his performance was even worse than a three-year-old girl.

“Ah, I see it. Daddy didn’t remove his finger. He used his right thumb,” Faith exclaimed.

“That doesn’t count. Daddy is so stupid.”

Distressed, Dell pulled Chen Zhao’s arm. “Chen, show them magic too.”

“I don’t know any magic.”

That was exactly what Dell wanted. He would only feel comfortable after seeing Chen Zhao being despised by Faith as well.

“Don’t disappoint Faith. Just perform something.”

“Fine.” Chen Zhao opened his hand. “There is nothing on my hand, right?”

“Yup, there’s nothing.”

Chen Zhao clenched his fist and then opened it again. There was a pearl.

“Wow, that’s amazing!” Faith, Ronnie and Vera all clapped loudly.

Dell immediately walked up and searched Chen Zhao’s body. “Where did you hide the pearl?”

“Stop touching me.” Chen Zhao slapped away Dell’s hands.

“You hid it in advance, right?”

Chen Zhao clenched his fist again. When he opened it, there was a handful of pearls.

Dell’s eyes almost dropped out. “You really know magic?”

“It’s the only one I know.” Chen Zhao clenched his fist again and the pearls disappeared.

Risfar finally said, “Chen, you’re really talented.”

Despite his careful observation, he could not tell how the magic was performed.

“Uncle, I want to see it again!”

“Black-Ma, get me a bucket.”

Black-Ma soon returned with a bucket in his mouth. Chen Zhao opened his left hand. “There’s nothing, right?”

“Yes, nothing.” The three kids stared attentively at Chen Zhao’s hand.

Chen Zhao clenched his fist. Then, pearls started to fall out through the gaps between his fingers one after another.

Before long, there was already a layer of pearls in the bucket.

“Chen, where exactly did you hide the pearls? Did you plan to show us this magic in the first place?” Dell asked curiously.

Risfar was very curious too. Close-up magic was the most difficult type to perform. Chen Zhao also had no one to help him.

However, Risfar could not see the trick at all.

“Chen, teach me the magic.”

“Nah, you’re too dumb for it.” Chen Zhao glanced at Dell with the corner of his eye.

“Don’t say that before the kids. You’re degrading me.”

Chen Zhao only performed this for the kids. He did not want to expose anything.

In the evening, Fali came home. Dell and Risfar also left.

“Puff… It’s a tiring day.”

“What happened?”

“It’s the weekend. There were a lot of people and trouble.”

“If it’s too tiring, you can quit.”

“No,” Fali rejected immediately.

Chen Zhao would not force Fali to be a housewife.

“By the way, I’m leaving for a day,” Chen Zhao said.

“Huh? Where?”

“That place.”

“Oh… You mean the place you disappeared to?”

“Yup.”

“I really want to see that place too…”

Chen Zhao gave a bitter smile. He really could not bring Fali.

It was Hell, after all.

Apart from him, the only way for a person to go there was to commit suicide.

“Fali, I can agree to anything but that.”

“I know,” Fali said understandingly. “When are you leaving?”

“Tonight. I’ll go there earlier and come back earlier.”

“Okay.” Chen Zhao put his arms around Fali’s shoulders and gently kissed her hair.

Chen Zhao thought about what he should get for Fali from Hell.

Just when he was about to act further, he suddenly realized that his body was fading away.

“F**k… this again,” Chen Zhao cursed.

Fali had yet to realize Chen Zhao’s change. She suddenly lost balance and fell onto the sofa. Of course, she immediately discovered Chen Zhao’s disappearance.

“Human, you’re finally here. If you came any later, it’ll be over.” Beelzebub Zofee was standing right before Chen Zhao.

Chen Zhao walked out of the magic array. “Lord, this is the Treasure Stone you wanted, right?”

Chen Zhao took out a pearl. Beelzebub Zofee immediately nodded, “Yes, this is the one. Don’t tell me you only brought one.”

“A lot.” Chen Zhao took out all of the pearls and placed them before Beelzebub Zofee. “Are these called Treasure Stones in Hell? Are they very precious?”

“Anything that isn’t available in Hell is precious. Many years ago, a human brought some here.”

“What’s their use?”

“I’m making some Spring of Youth. One of the ingredients is Treasure Stone.”

“What’s Spring of Youth?”

“In human language, it can make people young again. In our language, it can make us return to our strongest state,” Beelzebub Zofee said.

Chen Zhao’s eyes glittered. “How much will you be making?”

“Don’t worry. I’ll give some to you.” Beelzebub Zofee was really kind. “I spent almost half of all my wealth to make two bottles of Spring of Youth. Come, follow me.”
