Chen Zhao rubbed his hands . Did some mutant parasite thing latch onto him? He started thinking about scenes from alien movies . Zofee didn"t explain to him either .

“If you want to go back to the human world, you"ll need another day . Before this, you can stay in my castle or walk around the city . ” Zofee snapped his fingers and a floating female spirit appeared beside Chen Zhao . “Jessica, help me take care of my guest . You can swallow whatever demon offends him . ”

The female spirit was pretty, but unfortunately, she only had her upper body . She didn"t have a lower body . She wore a light white veil and her hair floated slowly as if she was in water .

Chen Zhao followed the female spirit named Jessica and studied her .

“Jessica, were you a human before?”

“No, I"m a Banshee, a demon . I"m Lady Kaleesha"s servant . ”

She was probably the most human-like demon that Chen Zhao had met . That was why Chen Zhao thought she was a human"s spirit .

Chen Zhao reached out to touch her, but his hand touched Jessica, there was a very slight feeling . It wasn"t obvious though and more like touching some kind of vapor . If he did it without meaning to, he could completely miss the feeling .

“Respected Living Being, would you like to tour Obsidian City?”

“Will I be in danger?”

“Please do not worry . You are the lord"s respected guest and also a living being . No one can offend you . Plus, I will be by your side at all times . ”

“Then let"s go see . ”

Jessica took Chen Zhao to the highest point of the castle . There was a platform with a dozen two-legged dragons . These dragons were huge, all about 65 feet tall like huge helicopters .

They all had a saddle on their backs, clearly for people to sit on . However, they were way too big for Chen Zhao .

“These are Lady Kaleesha"s kin . They were part of the dowry, like me . Now, they are the mounts for the Lord and Lady Kaleesha . Of course, you"re the most respected guest of Obsidian City, so you"re also qualified to ride a two-legged dragon . ”

With that, Jessica let out a shrill scream . A group of small demons half the height of Chen Zhao slipped out of the cave beside him . They quickly grouped before Jessica and uttered some things that Chen Zhao couldn"t understand .

“Go prepare a saddle for the respected lord . ”

“Are they demons too?” Chen Zhao pointed at them curiously .

“They"re inferior demons responsible for miscellaneous ch.o.r.es . ”

These inferior demons moved quickly, climbing up and down a dragon to change the saddle and seat . In a few minutes, it had changed to a fancy wooden chair . It looked like a wide carriage with a hood .

Chen Zhao climbed onto the dragon and sat in the chair . It was quite comfortable .

“Who will drive it?”

Jessica started talking to the respectfully grouped demons . The inferior demons started arguing, even fighting and biting each other . Finally, a dirt-yellow demon jumped onto the dragon"s back . The other demons made angry noises .

The dirt-yellow demon pulled the reins and the dragon soared into the air . Other than the shock in the beginning that was uncomfortable to Chen Zhao, it became a lot steadier after that .

“Is being a coachman this compet.i.tive too?”

“They"re too weak . If they"re not given a job, they"ll think that they"re worthless and insecure . That"s why they"ll fight for any chance to work . They may even kill their compet.i.tors for this chance . ”

Jessica was still floating around Chen Zhao while explaining about the inferior demons .

Basically, they were like the cows of h.e.l.l . They ate gra.s.s and produced milk . When needed, they would even be used as food .

They were also the most loyal dogs and their value was displayed in many aspects, not just in hard work . If they became loyal to someone, they would do anything for the person . They may risk their lives .

They could even turn themselves into suicidal bombs . If there were enough of them, they could act as cannon fodder .

Plus, they had some intelligence . If they lived in the human world instead of h.e.l.l, they would definitely be more liked than dogs and cats . They weren"t very ugly or scary-looking either . If you got used to their appearance, you"d even think that they were cute .

“Living Lord, if you have the need, I can gift you some inferior demon children . ”

“Uh, inferior demon babies?”

“Yes . Mature inferior demons already have someone they"re loyal to, so they won"t change it . The children don"t have one yet, so they will become your most loyal servants . ”

“Can you do that?”

Chen Zhao really was tempted . If he could raise some inferior demons, he could put them in Blackie"s home . They could help him do ch.o.r.es or bring him food and water when he and Blackie did experiments in the future .

“Of course . ”

“How long are their lifespans?”

“Around three years, but I can choose some who are close to adulthood for you . This way, you don"t have to worry about raising them for too long . ”

“How many can you give me?”

“As many as you want . Inferior demons are the least valuable . Many are actually freed each year . ”

“Do they have high fertility rates?” Chen Zhao was worried that if he introduced the inferior demons into the human world, they would cause a species explosion . That would be kind of troublesome .

“Indeed, but I can just choose one s.e.x—all male or female . That way, you don"t have to worry about them reproducing too often . ”

A while later, the dragon was above Obsidian City . After circling in the air, the inferior demon steered the dragon to land on the ground .

There were all types of demons in Obsidian City . There were some that even Jessica didn"t know the names of .

The city was quite lively . It seemed that Zofee governed this place very well .

“Oh, Jessica, I want to buy some plants from h.e.l.l . Where can I buy it from?”

“Plants from h.e.l.l? There probably aren"t any merchants who sell it specifically, but you can go to Omoro Market . There are many merchants there . Maybe someone brought some special plants . You can check . ”

Jessica brought Chen Zhao to Omoro Market, but it was covered in fog . He couldn"t see anything .

“Living Lord, you must use the Demon Vision to look . Otherwise, you won"t see anything . ”

“What"s the Demon Vision?”

“You can"t do it? It"s a low-level demonic spell . ”

Chen Zhao hadn"t even heard of it before, let alone know how to do it . The low-level demon magic book he"d bought from Raz didn"t have any records of demonic spells .

“I"ll prepare a spell scroll of the Demon Vision for you,” Jessica said caringly .

“Thank you . ” Chen Zhao accepted quickly . “But what do we do now if I can"t even see the Omoro Market?”

“It"s okay . I can lend you my eyes for now . ”

“Uh…” Chen Zhao was confused . Eyes could be lent? What kind of crazy technology was this? Or rather, crazy magic?

“It"s a talent that Banshees have . We can lend any of our organs to others . ”

“This is too amazing . So if someone"s missing a heart, can you lend your heart to them too?”

“Banshees do not have hearts . ”

“Is your talent troublesome?”

“No, it"s very easy . Watch…” Jessica just dug out one of her eyes and handed it to Chen Zhao .

He was speechless .
