Demons Beside You

Chapter 421: That’s A Monster That No Human Can Defeat

Rupert arrived at Sienna’s place and stood outside the door.

“Teacher, how do you think I should subdue Sienna?”

“You’re a toxicologist. Just give her a curse combo,” Camilla said. “Don’t hesitate. Knock on the door and cast your spells once the door opens.”

“Fine.” Rupert rubbed her hands, looking somewhat nervous.

Although she was more powerful than Sienna, Sienna was her senior, after all. They had the same teacher.

Curses would more or less harm Sienna.

Rupert had never cast any spells on her friends before.

“I’ll cast Weak, then Blind, then Confusion, and lastly Hypnosis. Will these do?” Rupert asked.

“Yes. With Sienna’s reaction, she certainly won’t be able to resist. It’ll be enough,” Camilla nodded.

Knock, knock...

Rupert knocked on the door and also took out her staff.

The door opened!

Rupert immediately cast Weak!

However, the next moment, a large hand grabbed Rupert’s shoulder and lifted her into the air.

Astonished, Camilla was about to attack Chen Zhao.

Chen Zhao looked at Camilla and pointed his finger at her. “Sleep.”

Camilla fell asleep at once. Rupert was flabbergasted. What?!

Although her teacher was in soul state, she had at least eighty percent of her original powers.

But the person before them had managed to hypnotize her instantly!

Importantly, with Camilla’s magical resistance, why would she fall asleep that easily?

“It’s you?” Rupert shouted. “Let me go. It’s painful!”

“Oh, I remember you.” Chen Zhao recognized Rupert as the girl who had suddenly run away the previous day.

Her rubber ball had activated his Cursed Eye.

Chen Zhao had been very much puzzled by all that, but now he finally got it.

The girl was also a witch. She had been trying to sneak attack him the day before.

Clearly, she did not expect Chen Zhao to activate the Cursed Eye and ruin the attempt.

Today, she tried to attack him again. Chen Zhao was determined to beat her up for her wicked action.

“Huh... Chen, Rupert... Teacher... What’s happening?”

Just then, Sienna walked out. Chen Zhao turned his head and asked, “Sienna, do you know her?”

“She’s my junior, and the soul is my teacher... What happened to her? Huh, is she asleep? Can souls fall asleep?”

“Sienna, save me! He’s going to kill me...” Rupert grasped at straws at once.

Just as Chen Zhao put Rupert back onto the floor, she took a few steps back and was about to attack him again.

Chen Zhao’s Cursed Eye, as well as the Mouth of Glutton, opened.

“Stop! Rupert, what’s wrong? Why are you attacking my friend?”

“He’s your friend?”

“What do you think?”

Rupert moved her eyes in thought. “Brother, I’m sorry. It’s my mistake.”

“Are you thinking about admitting defeat first and then attacking me?” Chen Zhao would not believe Rupert easily.

“No, of course not. I would like to make a deal with you.”

“What?”

“Someone wants me to attack you. The person will pay me a lot for that. You pretend that you’re defeated by me. When I receive the money, we’ll split it.”

“And how much is that?”

“A hundred and twenty thousand,” Rupert replied.

“Wait... I’m in.” Sienna was energized when she heard the amount.

“Aren’t you going to ask for my opinions first?”

“Chen, I really need some money now. You won’t reject my request, will you?”

Sienna emphasized greatly on the word “request” as she stared at Chen Zhao with watery eyes.

“Who wants you to attack me?” Chen Zhao asked.

“Someone called Pierce South.” Rupert betrayed Pierce without hesitation.

Chen Zhao’s face darkened straightaway. “Do you know where he is?”

“No.”

“If you can find him for me, I’ll give you fifty thousand. You won’t need me to pretend to be defeated by you.”

Chen Zhao really hated Pierce. He did not look for Pierce, but Pierce had been wanting to harm him.

“He originally asked me to kill you. I rejected,” Rupert added.

“So can you find him or not?”

“Hmm... It’s hard,” Rupert admitted, helpless.

“Should we go in and talk? Also... Chen, what happened to my teacher?”

“She’s your teacher?”

“Yes, if she offended you, I do apologize for her.”

“She’s just hypnotized. She’s fine.”

“How do we wake her up?” Sienna was surprised that Chen Zhao could hypnotize a soul, but she knew all along how powerful Chen Zhao was.

Although her teacher had been very strong while alive, she was probably no match for Chen Zhao even at her best state.

“Wait for twelve hours, or attack her.”

While Chen Zhao could make a person or soul fall asleep, they would still have their instincts. Receiving damage would cause them to wake up.

Sienna cast a small spell and Camilla was immediately awakened in shock.

“Rupert, Sienna, run!”

“Err... Teacher, Chen’s my friend.”

“Your friend?”

“Yes, my friend.”

Camilla stared at Chen Zhao in doubt. “What did you cast on me just now? Why was I hypnotized?”

“Banshee’s Charm.”

Camilla’s expression changed. “You know Banshee’s Charm?”

“Yes.”

“Teacher, what’s Banshee’s Charm? We’ve never heard of it before,” Rupert and Sienna both asked out of curiosity.

“All sleeping spells developed from Banshee’s Charm.” Camilla looked at Chen Zhao. “Nobody could cast Banshee’s Charm. That’s why people were forced to change it into the different weaker versions today.”

Rupert and Sienna also stared at Chen Zhao with a different look.

Chen Zhao shrugged. Camilla looked at Sienna. “Is he the one whom you said is going to fight Evangeline?”

“Yup. Chen’s really powerful,” Sienna answered.

“Indeed, but I’m unsure if he can defeat Evangeline,” Camilla said. “That’s a monster created from the souls of more than ten witches and other evil spirits, a monster new to the world. She has not only potent spells, but also extraordinary strength.”

“I’m quite confident about the strength part,” Chen Zhao said. “If she’s merely a dozen times stronger than a normal person, I should be able to deal with her.”

“No way. No human can possess such great strength.”
