Chapter 197: New Demon Servant On The Sea

“Zola, Manny’s in danger.”

“What? What danger? What happened to her?” When Zola received the call from Rasfa, she still had no idea what had happened.

“Last night I lent Chen a yacht. Manny sneaked onto the yacht. When they were coming back to shore, they met a windstorm.”

“Where are they now? How’s Manny?”

“My people have already found the overturned yacht, but neither of them is on the yacht.”

Zola felt the whole world turn upside down, as if it was the end of the world.

“Dad… Help me find Manny, please! Help me find her! She’s just a kid…” Zola cried in sorrow.

“I am. I’ve already sent out a search and rescue team.” Rasfa was similarly anxious. “Zola… you need to be prepared for the worst.”

Rasfa could hear Zola sob at the other side of the phone. He hung up.

“What does Manny’s positioning watch say?”

“No signals.” Rasfa already regretted his decision. Manny was in danger precisely because he had lent Chen Zhao the yacht.

…

“Chen, I’m thirsty.” Manny lay on Chen Zhao’s back. They had already been in the sea for an entire night. The scorching sun after the storm was evaporating the water in their bodies away at an astonishing rate.

Chen Zhao continued to swim forward slowly, carrying Manny on his back. “I’m thirsty too…”

Chen Zhao regretted not bringing some plain water in the spatial ring. Now, they had no plain water at all.

“You sure we’re going in the correct direction?” Chen Zhao asked.

“Maybe… I dunno…” Manny looked around her. “The sun just rose up from that side, right?”

“I can’t remember,” Chen Zhao admitted.

“Will we die here?”

“No.”

“Remove your life vest and cover your head. I’m carrying you. You won’t need it.”

Most of Manny’s body was submerged in seawater, which could block most of the sunlight. Nonetheless, she still felt hot from the sunlight that was shining onto her head.

Chen Zhao was worried that Manny would be dehydrated before they reached the shore or were rescued. In such a situation, he would not even have the chance to save her.

“Chen, you tired?”

“No.”

Even if Chen Zhao was tired, he would not admit it.

Manny was in her most vulnerable state at the moment. Chen Zhao was worried that she would mentally collapse.

After a few more hours in the sea, it was already noon.

Manny’s voice gradually diminished. Chen Zhao turned around and held Manny. “Manny, wake up.”

“Manny?” She did not respond. Her lips were dry and her forehead was burning.

The worst scenario had happened. Chen Zhao tried to think of a solution.

He was not even sure if he was heading in the correct direction. Swimming for seven or eight hours was very tiring even for him.

Chen Zhao was very exhausted. He also wanted to just give up.

Tiredness appeared again, continuously breaking down his mental defense. In such a desperate situation, most people would give in, even the most determined of all.

But Manny was in peril. If Chen Zhao could not think of a solution, she would actually die.

“So tired… Don’t want to move anymore…”

“So tired too… Don’t want to move anymore too…” Suddenly, Chen Zhao heard a voice in his mind.

“Hallucination?” Chen Zhao shook his head.

Suddenly, Chen Zhao’s feet touched something big.

Shark?! Chen Zhao immediately curled his legs. Because of his previous experience, the first thing he thought of when he touched something in the sea was sharks.

If it was really a shark, Manny and he were dead for sure.

He was in a very bad shape at the moment. Any large predator could kill the two of them easily.

Just then, the thing underwater floated up slightly. Chen Zhao’s feet touched it again.

It was not a shark. It felt even larger than a shark.

Chen Zhao lowered his head and saw a huge patch of darkness under him. The thing was indeed much larger than a shark.

The next moment, the thing floated out of the sea and carried Chen Zhao and Manny on its back. Chen Zhao finally saw it clearly.

It was a killer whale, a predator more powerful than the sharks. It was truly a king of the sea.

“I’m so tired. Can you come down from my back?”

Chen Zhao heard the voice in his had again. He was stunned. “Are you talking to me?”

“I feel tired just talking to you.”

“Demon?”

“Yes.”

“What’s your name?” Chen Zhao asked.

“Amon Beria, subordinate of Sloth. Why are you asking me for my name when you’re the one who summoned me from Hell?”

Did I summon him? Another subordinate of the Seven Great Demon Kings…

Anyway, Chen Zhao did not expect himself to summon such a huge guy, not to mention that he was aquatic.

Amon Beria was significantly bigger than normal killer whales.

The largest killer whale could be up to ten meters long and weigh about ten tons.

However, Amon was at least fifteen meters long. He was a real giant.

“Bring us towards the northeast,” Chen Zhao said.

“I’m too tired to move.”

“Do you want demonic crystals?”

“Yes.”

“Bring us there.”

“Tired.”

“Then what do I need you for? You lazy pig!”

“Why did you even summon me?”

“You’re my demon servant now. You have to listen to me.”

“But I just don’t want to move.”

Chen Zhao gritted his teeth. “Do you know that among all my demon servants, there’s a subordinate of Raymond, the King of Lust?”

“So?”

“If you defy my orders again, I’ll ask Raymond to make you mate continuously and you’ll never be able to stop. Think carefully.”

“Northeast right?” Amon agreed readily.

Chen Zhao was speechless. What kind of demons did he have?

Could he not just have an ordinary demon?

After a while, Manny was awakened by the cool sea breeze. “Chen, where are we now? Are we found by the rescue team?”

“Soon.”

“Then we’re…”

Manny touched the thing she was on. It felt wet and slippery.

“It’s a… whale?”

“We’re quite lucky.”

“Are you sure it will bring us home?”

“Yes. Don’t worry.”

“Will it suddenly go underwater, and we’ll be in the sea again?”

“No, we’ve had an agreement.”

“Chen, do you know animal language?”

“No. Whales are intelligent creatures. You don’t have to talk to them. They’ll be able to understand certain things by themselves.”

“But how can you be sure that it’ll send us to the shore?”

“Just rest assured.”

Amon might be lazy, but his speed in water was really amazing. Chen Zhao and Manny felt as if they were riding on the waves. When the sea breeze and the seawater hit onto their faces, it even felt slightly painful.

“There, go that way!” Manny seemed to be fully energized again and started instructing Amon excitedly.
