Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"What are you going to eat? Share some with me." Chen Zhao walked out.

"The princess gave me a piece of meat. I don't know what kind of meat it is, but it's very fragrant." Gaia chewed the piece of meat and said, "It's quite chewy."

The cup in Chen Zhao's hand clinked and fell to the ground.

"Meat slices? Is it a bit spicy?"

"Don't worry, I can eat spicy food."

"Spit it out, spit it out quickly." Chen Zhao was shocked.

"What?"

"Spit it out, you can't eat that piece of meat." Chen Zhao was very anxious.

What kind of meat is that?

That was wyvern meat, and it was grilled with Oris's dragon breath.

Only people with demon blood can enjoy it. People or animals without demon blood will turn into charcoal immediately if they eat it.

Not even a little bit, but he did an experiment on a mouse.

The rat burned itself to ashes on the spot.

"It's just a piece of meat, is it still poisonous?" Gaia said disapprovingly.

Since Chen Zhao could give this piece of meat to the princess, he would definitely not poison it.

"Spit it out quickly." Chen Zhao pinched Gaia's chin.

"Chen, what are you doing?"

"Spit it out, spit it out."

"If you hurt me, I'll just spit it out."

Gaia spat out the chewed meat and looked at Chen Zhao dissatisfied: "Chen, what are you doing?"

"You can't eat this meat."

"Why?" Gaia wiped the sweat from her forehead, feeling a little hot.

At this moment, Gaia noticed that the sweat on her palms was actually getting hot.

Gaia quickly wiped it with her hand, but the next moment, her arm burned.

"Oops, it's too late..."

Gaia suddenly knelt on the ground, and a look of pain began to appear on her face.

Very painful, unprecedented pain.

She felt like her insides were burning and her blood was boiling.

"Chen...what's wrong with me?"

Chen Zhao looked at Gaia with a gloomy expression. Should he take out the hybrid potion?

At this moment, Gaia rushed towards the lake and plunged into it.

"Gaia, come back." Chen Zhao hurriedly jumped into the water after him.

White bubbles began to appear in the water, and dead fish surfaced one after another.

As soon as Chen Zhao was about to get close, he felt that the water around him was boiling, and even he couldn't get close.

"Damn it." The surrounding lake water was too hot. Chen Zhao tried to get close several times but was unable to get close.

At this moment, Gaia suddenly emerged from the water, and she seemed much more awake.

"Chen, what on earth is going on?"

"How do you feel now?"

"I'm not sure, I feel... I feel... I..."

Wow——

A pillar of fire suddenly erupted from Gaia's mouth, and Chen Zhao was so frightened that he quickly dived into the water.

Gaia immediately covered her mouth with a look of astonishment on her face.

After half the payment, Chen Zhao emerged from the water and looked at Gaia secretly: "Gaia, will you still spray me?"

"What's going on? Why is this happening?"

"Are you still feeling uncomfortable now?"

"Answer my question first, what's wrong with me?"

"Answer my question first. Do you feel uncomfortable now?"

"A little bit, but not as much as before..."

Wow——

Fortunately, Gaia didn't face Chen Zhao this time.

"Chen, what happened to me?"

"She has demon blood in her body, and it looks like she is of dragon blood." Obitos crawled over.

After all, Obitos is also a hybrid dragon, so he knows Gaia's situation best.

Chen Zhao looked at Gaia with some surprise. In other words, Gaia didn't need to take special mixed-blood medicine. She could withstand roasted flying dragon meat on her own?

"What will she do now?"

"After the first breath of fire is sprayed, she will be completely calm. The dragon's breath will slowly recover in the future, but this process is enough for her to learn to control the dragon's breath." Obitos said.

Chen Zhao immediately turned to Gaia and repeated Obitos' words.

Gaia kept spitting out flames from her mouth. Fortunately, she was on the lake now and would not cause any fire.

After spraying for more than ten minutes, Gaia finally finished spraying the fire in her mouth.

"Can I spray again?" Chen Zhao asked.

Gaia opened her mouth and tried to spit out, spitting out a mouthful of residual flames, but it didn't last any longer.

"Okay, let's go ashore and talk."

Gaia followed Chen Zhao ashore and stared directly at Chen Zhao.

"The piece of meat just now has a certain effect. Only people with certain special bloodlines can eat it. If ordinary people or other creatures eat it, they will burn themselves."

"What kind of special bloodlines are you talking about?"

"Take you for example, you have the blood of a dragon." Chen Zhao said: "What you just sprayed out was dragon breath. You'd better learn to control it and don't use it in front of ordinary people."

Gaia felt her body, and she felt that her body had really become different.

Full of power, Gaia looked at Chen Zhao doubtfully: "Do you also have dragon blood?"

"No, mine is more complicated, and I don't breathe fire."

"Then do you have any special abilities?" Gaia asked.

Chen Zhao pondered for a while and then said, "My right arm is my special ability."

"The right arm? You mean it's stronger, right?"

Chen Zhao shrugged, and then controlled the cursed eye to open.

Gaia was startled, but then she saw Chen Zhao's right arm swelling, growing like a huge hammer, bigger than his body, and the skin of his right arm shone with metallic luster.

"Is this your superpower?"

"Okay, don't think too much. It looks powerful, but in fact it's not very useful." Chen Zhao put away the Gluttonous Mouth and Cursed Eyes.

"I'd like to borrow your barbell."

Chen Zhao led Gaia to the backyard, and Gaia tried to pick up a barbell ring weighing 500 kilograms.

It was a bit strenuous, but not to her limit.

After several attempts, Gaia roughly judged that her arm strength was almost 700 kilograms.

"Is this also the change brought about by that piece of meat?"

"That piece of meat is just a trigger, the real change is actually you."

"Did you originally want to use this method to strengthen Tago and me?"

"How is it possible? I didn't know beforehand that you had a special bloodline. How could I use this method? If I'm not careful at all, you will turn into charcoal and I will inevitably destroy your body."

"Then what method did you originally plan to use?"

"I have prepared a potion that can allow people to get close to or slightly exceed the limits of the human body, but you don't need it now."

Today's Gaia is a veritable humanoid female tyrannosaurus, one that can still breathe fire.

"Don't tell Tago about you. After all, you are no longer an ordinary person. If this matter spreads, I can't guarantee whether you will be sent to a laboratory's operating table for slice research."

"You don't need to tell me, I know what to do." Gaia said, "By the way, is that kind of meat still available? I should be able to use that kind of meat freely now, right?"

"I'll bring you some next time I'm over there."
