Demons Beside You

Just then, Agatha heard Steven"s voice.

 “Hey, you"re finally here.”

 Agatha was clearly delighted.

 However, the next moment, she saw Chen Zhao walk up and hug Steven.

 Only friends would do that. They were definitely not a superior-subordinate pair.

 “Old man, you"ve been playing too much recently.” Chen Zhao patted Steven"s back heavily.

 “Stop that. Cough…” Steven made a few coughs.

 What?

 He"s not a crew member?

 He"s Steven"s friend?

 b.a.s.t.a.r.d… he must have done it on purpose!

 He deliberately had a conflict with me!

 Fire almost spurted out from Agatha"s eyes.

 The other crew members were glad that they were not involved, or else they would be the unlucky ones.

 Just then, James appeared from somewhere.

 Behind him was a lady who looked quite pretty.

 “Mr. Steven, Mr. Chen, hi.”

 When Steven and Chen Zhao saw James, they knew at once what he had just done.

 Nevertheless, Steven was too busy to care about such things, while Chen Zhao was not in the position to speak.

 Agatha was more frustrated by the fact that James also knew Chen Zhao. She felt as if the entire crew had been deceiving her.

 Everyone was trying to harm her!

 Steven looked at Agatha. “Agatha, you need to apologize to my friend.”

 “Mr. Steven, I…”

 Agatha realized that she had hit a hard snag.

 However, she was extremely disgusted by Chen Zhao.

 “You offended my friend.” Steven stared at Agatha with a serious look.

 “I wasn"t wrong!” Agatha shouted, mustering her courage.

 “Then you"re fired.” Steven did not hesitate at all.

 Chen Zhao similarly showed no sympathy. Since the start, this irritating woman had been making trouble herself.

 Chen Zhao did not think that he should forgive her.

 “Mr. Steven, I"ve followed you for four years. You"re firing me just for an outsider?”

 “Correct. If you have any other questions, please talk to my lawyer.” Steven pulled Chen Zhao away. He was not planning to have a long chat with Agatha.

 “You"ll regret this! Steven, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d, tyrant! And you, you f**king dogs! I won"t let you off!”

 　　…

 Steven looked at Chen Zhao. “Chen, you just made me lose an a.s.sistant. You need to compensate me.”

 “What the f**k? You fired her yourself.”

 “I"ve been experiencing lumbago recently.”

 “You should restrain yourself, old man.”

 “No way,” Steven rejected immediately. “Is Amon here?”

 “Yes.”

 The two went to the beach and saw a s.h.i.+pwreck in the sea, as well as someone swimming toward the sh.o.r.e.

 “What"s happening?”

 Chen Zhao realized that the person was the captain who had sailed them earlier. He muttered a few lines to Steven.

 Steven widened his eyes. “Is Amon that obedient? You can ask him to execute such a complicated command?”

 “Yup.”

 “I should change the script. I need to give him more shots.” Steven was unconcerned with the captain"s tragic experience. In fact, he felt that the captain deserved it.” Can you ask Amon to come out?”

 “Wait till that a.s.shole"s gone. I don"t want him to know that I"m involved in the s.h.i.+pwreck.”

 “You"re careful as ever.”

 The captain swam to the sh.o.r.e and asked for help from the two.

 Steven asked the crew members to give him a blanket. Nonetheless, they would only bring him back when they were ready to leave.

 The two went to the shallow water zone. Steven asked, “Do we need to go a bit further? Isn"t it too shallow here?”

 Chen Zhao shook his head and clapped his hands.

 Immediately, waves surged toward them and a giant charged into the shallow water zone.

 As the thing approached them, more of its body was exposed above the sea.

 It was like a stranded submarine. Steven stared at the enormous beast before him, dumbfounded.

 Too big… It was really too big.

 It was formidably huge!

 Amon"s gigantic body was somehow realizing a suffocating aura.

 “I… I… Can I touch him?” Steven asked in both fear and excitement.

 Amon"s size had totally exceeded his imagination. It was such a great visual impact!

 It was not the kind of killer whale that Steven was expecting. Amon was more like an ancient beast.

 “Of course.”

 Steven took a few steps forward and the water reached his waist.

 He reached out toward Amon"s body.

 Suddenly, Amon spouted a mouthful of water and Steven fell into the sea.

 Reearr…

 Amon made a weird sound, but it was obvious that he was pleased as he continuously slapped the water with his tail.

 Realizing that it was a prank, Steven immediately turned his head. “Chen, you asked Amon to do this, right? It must be you!”

 “Haha… You want to get up his back? He can take you for a ride on the sea.”

 “Can I?”

 “Of course.”

 Steven used all his might to get up Amon"s back.

 “Chen, aren"t you coming?”

 “Nope. Amon, let him feel what it"s like to be the king of the sea.”

 “Ah…”

 Amon began to move his huge body, which was indeed tiring in the shallow water zone.

 When he returned to the deep zone, however, he sped up.

 At the beginning, Steven was terrified, but he slowly forgot his fear and only excitement remained.

 He felt as if the entire sea was beneath his feet. It was a unique feeling that was hard to describe.

 It was as if he had regained youth. It was totally different from a s.h.i.+p or a speedboat.

 It was thrilling, intriguing, and beautiful…

 Roar…

 Steven held onto Amon"s dorsal fin. Suddenly, Amon leaped out of the sea and then back into it.

 Steven saw a great white shark in Amon"s mouth.

 It was an adult great white shark measuring six meters.

 It would have been a marine killer, but now, in front of Amon, it was insignificant.

 Steven enjoyed himself for a full ten minutes before Amon sent him back to sh.o.r.e.

 However, he was reluctant to leave.

 “Steven, you"ll get another chance next time. When you start filming the movie, you can play all you want, as long as it won"t affect your progress,” Chen Zhao said.

 “Fine…” Steven was just being slightly playful.

 “I can"t imagine how you managed to make him so obedient.”

 “He"s smart.”

 “He"s very big. You sure killer whales can reach this size?”

 “You"re looking at him yourself, aren"t you?”

 “Fine.”
