Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

Seeing that neither Chen Zhao nor David were interested, Sienna uttered a word.

"The Magic Dinner."

Magic dinner? What the hell is this?

"What is a magic dinner?" David asked curiously.

"Every witch can only do three magic dinners in her life. The first is the baptism, which is the day when I officially become a witch. It is dedicated to my teacher, and the second is to welcome me."

"What does this mean?"

"When a witch makes friends with ordinary people, she will make a 'welcome' dinner, which means welcome to the world of magic. At the same time, she also wishes that ordinary friends will not be harmed by magic."

"Would it be dangerous if I didn't eat this magic dinner?" David swallowed.

He felt that Chen Zhao was definitely not needed. After all, Chen Zhao was so powerful that no one could defeat him.

So the ordinary friend Sienna refers to is obviously herself.

"No, this is not the Middle Ages. This is the custom of witches in the past, but it has been preserved until now. The magic dinner is just a blessing. Even if you have eaten it, it does not mean that you will not be harmed by magic. It does not mean that you have not eaten it. Doesn’t mean you’re in danger.”

Chen Zhao was looking forward to the magic dinner.

Just the name alone makes people look forward to it.

"There are a lot of ingredients in the refrigerator, you can use whatever you want."

"Before that, we need some other condiments and flavorings." Sienna ran into her room and found a few bottles from the ceremony.

"What's in here?"

"Some mixture, a must-have for a magical dinner."

Sienna is obviously a master of cooking, and she is proficient in using various kitchen utensils.

David and Chen Zhao were both very interested in Sienna's process of making the magic dinner, so they kept watching.

"Su'an in the dream, listen to my prayers, respond to my call, and send you your blessing." Sienna muttered while pouring a bottle of magic potion into the pot.

In the boiling soup, a delicate fragrance began to permeate the heart.

"It smells so good..."

"Feimeng's Whisper, completed." Sienna was very satisfied with her work.

After putting the soup into the bowl, Sienna started the second dish, and she started talking again.

"The fog of chaos, extend your tentacles and touch my soul. I swear by my magic power to share the chaos with you..."

Sienna reached into a box and... grabbed a handful of wriggling earthworms.

vomit--

Chen Zhao almost squirted out and watched Sienna throw those earthworms into the pot.

"Chen, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"Didn't you see what she just threw in?"

"What was thrown in?" David didn't seem to see it.

"I feel a little uncomfortable, so I'm going back first." Chen Zhao shook his head.

At this moment, he completely lost interest and appetite in the magic dinner.

"Aren't you going to stay for dinner? Sienna prepares it so carefully."

"The magic dinner has no meaning to him. My magic power is not as strong as his, so the magic dinner will not have any effect on him." Sienna said.

"That's it, okay then, Chen, do you need me to send you off?"

"No, you and Sienna have dinner, I'll leave first."

…

When Chen Zhao returned home, Fali was already in the living room.

"Chen, you came back so early today. Wanda, come to me quickly."

Compared to Chen Zhao, Fali obviously welcomes Wanda's return more.

"You don't seem to look well. Could it be that you are sick?"

"No, I'm disgusted." Chen Zhao waved his hand: "I'm going to work in the basement. If anything happens, knock on the basement door three times."

"Which door is it, the outside door? Or the inside door?" Fali's face looked a little unnatural.

"The one inside... By the way, give me a hot spot to eat. I ate it when I came out. I was disgusted by Sienna's magic dinner."

Chen Zhao entered the space gap and started today's research again.

"Old Hei, you know about angel crystals, right?"

"Huh? Do you have an angel crystal?"

"Yes, there are quite a few."

"Don't you owe me a lot of demon crystals? Just use the same number of angel crystals in exchange."

"Beelzebub hates angel crystals very much, don't you?"

"I hate it too." Lao Hei replied: "To the devil, the angel crystal is as hot as a red-hot iron."

"Then what are you doing here? Angel crystals are not beneficial to you, but harmful to you. It seems useless if you ask for them."

"I'm useless, but my soul is."

"What's the meaning?"

"Angel crystals can repair damaged souls. You also know that after death, the soul's memory will gradually dissipate, so all I got was an incomplete soul. But if angel crystals can be used to repair damaged souls, what will happen to a complete soul?" The value will be greatly improved.”

"Besides the soul, is there any other use?" Chen Zhao asked with some disappointment.

"I don't know. My understanding of angel crystals is limited to this. By the way, when you give me angel crystals, it's best to grind them into powder before giving them to me. I don't want to come into contact with the complete angel crystals."

"I owe you more than two hundred years of demon crystals. Are you sure you want to replace them all with angel crystals of the same proportion?"

"So much? I don't need so much, just thirty-year-old angel crystals."

Lao Hei killed a total of two hundred and thirty-eight evil spirits last night.

However, the individuals of those evil spirits are different, so the angel crystals obtained by destroying them are also different. If the year of demon crystallization is compared with the same volume of angel crystals, it is almost four hundred years.

Chen Zhao has been researching various medicines recently, so he needs more materials.

Chen Zhao summoned Raz again: "Raz, I need poison ivy and flame snake scales..."

"A total of thirty-five years of demon crystallization."

"Laz, do you want an angel crystal?"

"Hmm? Your Excellency, Sir, do you have an angel crystal?"

"have."

"Are you planning to sell the Angel Crystal?"

"If you want it."

"How many do you have?"

"Tell me first what price you are offering."

"Twice the price of the devil's crystal."

"I learned from Beelzebub that you demons don't seem to have any need for angel crystals. Instead, you probably hate them. What are you doing here?"

"Haha... Things are rare and valuable, just as you humans hate weapons, but the price of weapons is always so high. Angel crystals are very lethal to demons, but there are still demons who make angel crystals into weapons , but angel crystals are too rare, even rarer than demon crystals."

"Twice the price of the devil crystal seems a bit low."

Raz's words reminded Chen Zhao that things are rare and valuable.

And to the devil, this is the raw material of arms, how can it be sold so cheaply.

"This... I know the price I offered is low, but I am also risky. Angel crystals are too rare. After I take them to hell, I still need to find a way to get rid of them. If I don't find them, I will smash them on my hands. Yes, Your Excellency the Living... please also understand me."

"Three times the price, for a total of thirty years. If you accept it, these angel crystals will be yours. If you don't accept it, I will find other demons to sell it to."
