Demons Beside You-Chapter 634 - The Third Eye
Charge! Chen Zhao drew in a deep breath, quietly feeling the power flowing in his body.
Power had never felt so real before.
It was not magical power, just pure, physical power.
It flowed in every corner of his body as if it was matter.
At the moment, it was flowing into his right arm.
Suddenly, Chen Zhao felt something on his arm.
It was familiar yet strange.
The third eye opened, and a surging power was gathering.
“Oh?” Some surprise flashed across Orris’ eyes.
With a loud yell, Chen Zhao’s fist flew across the air with unstoppable momentum.
Beelzebub Zofee extended two fingers.
When Chen Zhao hit Beelzebub Zofee’s fingers, his fist was deflected at once.
Indeed, their powers were too different.
The gap was hopelessly colossal.
Beelzebub Zofee had easily blocked Chen Zhao’s punch with just two fingers.
And he was in his human form, not true form.
Even though Chen Zhao felt that he was pretty strong already, he was still so powerless before this great demon lord.
“Lord, next time you test my strength, please use your entire hand, no matter how big our difference is. At least I’ll feel better.”
“Human, I know you’re not that fragile. I only wanted to let you know your true strength, not to deceive you.”
Chen Zhao shrugged helplessly. “Lord, you seem keen on training me. Why?”
“At the start, it’s only because you saved Orris, and my bastard son,” Beelzebub Zofee said. “But you showed no signs of rejection to my power. Do you know? There’s almost no way a human world species could accept the bloodlines of the Seven Great Demon Kings. You could, and you aren’t affected by the principles of the human world. You’re the most special one.”
“The stronger you are, the safer Obitos will be.”
“If you think that Obitos won’t be safe in the human world, you can summon him back here.”
“No, I hope that he’ll remain in the human world forever, at least when you’re still alive.”
“Why?”
“It’s not time for you to know yet.”
Chen Zhao almost managed to repeat the line with Beelzebub Zofee.
“I knew you would say that. How uncreative.”
“It seems like your third Pristine Eyeball has opened.” Orris walked up and held Chen Zhao’s arm.
Beelzebub Zofee looked at the eye on Chen Zhao’s arm. “It’s the Eye of Power.”
“What does it do?” Chen Zhao asked.
“Did you feel anything unusual when you attacked me?”
“I felt I’ve become much stronger.”
“Correct. I would have just used one finger, but because of this eye, I had to use two.”
Chen Zhao rolled his eyes.
Was there any difference between one finger and two? Double the humiliation?
Chen Zhao was not at all pleased that Beelzebub Zofee used only two fingers.
“The Eye of Power can double your power, but your Mouth of Glutton will only last half as much time.”
Double the damage, double the exhaustion.
“Your magical power is just too little,” Orris said.
“Is there a way to increase that? Can you give me some of your magical power?”
“Bloodlines can be transferred, but not magical power. Every individual’s magical power is unique. If you rashly accept magical power from someone else, the consequences are unpredictable. If the magical power you accept is weaker than yours, you may not experience much, but if it’s stronger, the consequences will only be disastrous.”
Chen Zhao suddenly recalled the times when he became allergic because the Mouth of Glutton had devoured whatever it encountered.
But it did not affect him much.
It seemed like he was only lucky.
“The Mouth of Glutton is too greedy. Sometimes it’ll eat my enemies due to pure instinct.”
The Mouth of Glutton was a bloodline of Gluttony, after all. Gluttony was its instinct.
If it ate things without magical power, Chen Zhao would be fine.
He did not encounter any problem when it ate metal or bulletproof glass.
But sometimes, it would swallow his enemies directly.
In the past, Chen Zhao did not know the possible consequences.
Now that he knew it, he would not dare to let the Mouth of Glutton eat whatever it wanted.
“The instinct of the Mouth of Glutton cannot be suppressed, even for me. I frequently eat random things,” Beelzebub Zofee said. “But I would convert my enemy’s magical power and release it immediately.”
Chen Zhao thought of something. Release the magical power?
Wasn’t it just the sneeze cannon?
“When a glutton eats their target, they will absorb some of their target’s characteristics, but not everything can be absorbed. An example is magical power. So as Gluttony subordinates, we have a method to release what’s not needed.”
Beelzebub Zofee looked at Orris. Understanding what he wanted, Orris opened her mouth and shot a fireball at Beelzebub Zofee.
Beelzebub Zofee opened his mouth and swallowed the fireball directly.
Chen Zhao felt that the couple was spitting saliva at each other.
Shouldn’t you go back to your room to play this?
Forget it, I can’t afford to offend any of you. Let’s not speak.
Beelzebub’s Zofee’s chest expanded slightly. The next instant, he blew in the air and a fire pillar rocketed into the sky.
Chen Zhao realized that it was similar to his sneeze cannon.
But there were also some differences.
“Come and try it.”
“Wait… What do you mean by try it?”
Boom!
Orris blasted Chen Zhao away with her “saliva.”
“Too slow.”
“Can’t you warn me first?” Chen Zhao rubbed his black face.
“You enemies will not warn you. Again…”
Boom!
“Again.”
“Ah… Hot, hot…”
Finally, Chen Zhao managed to catch Orris’ mini dragon breath.
But he was immediately scalded by it.
“Once you’ve managed to devour the spell, hit it with your own magical power, and then release it from the Mouth to counterattack your enemy.”
“Again.”
“Too slow, again.”
“Too slow, again…”
“Use your magical power to attack the spell. Don’t hesitate. Again.”
Chen Zhao had never received such a formal training session.
The couple’s joint special training really managed to torture Chen Zhao.
As Chen Zhao’s summoner, Beelzebub Zofee could not attack Chen Zhao.
But Orris was different. She could hit Chen Zhao however she wanted.
Moreover, her attacks were simply unreasonable.
Although she had kept her power to the minimum, Chen Zhao still felt like he was being blasted by grenades one after another.
