The final fighting scene of high-level demons is really not a place suitable for humans to observe.
The scorching air seemed to burn the human skin, and countless crushed stones were scattered in all directions by the unpredictable force of the air. Once the crushed stones collided in the air, they instantly emitted dazzling sparks.
Ji Huan could no longer clearly see the battle ahead.
The uniform on his body was long cut into pieces, and Ji Huan’s face was not much better. The blood flowing from his forehead wound covered his vision, and he blinked hard.
Holding the little grey devil firmly in his arms, Ji Huan’s heart was pounding.
“Ji Huan, don’t be afraid, don’t look.” Among the various voices around, the crisp voice of the little grey devil was the clearest one.
Then, Ji Huan felt a cold little paw covering his eyes.
Then——
He heard the sound of the wind.
With a “click” sound, the metal ring in his hand instantly separated from the metal pillar. The little grey devil realized that the card he represented had just been used by someone.
He looked at the huge monster trapped in the cage ahead, who was struggling to the brink of death. It was trying to use the power of flames to dissolve the cage that was trapping him. Once it escaped from the cage, then he and Ji Huan——
The little grey devil stretched out its paws to cover Ji Huan’s eyes, and everything in the surrounding environment slowed down in an instant.
The stones in the sky seemed to be still in the air, and the small flames caused by the collision floated in the air, motionless.
Under the small black paws, Ji Huan’s eyes were not completely closed.
The little devil moved his palm away, grabbed the metal rod on the ground, and then jumped lightly. When his thin body jumped to the top of the cage, he stabbed the metal rod in his hand into the left eye of the monster in the cage.
The sharp metal rod penetrated the back of the monster’s head in an instant, and a long roar erupted from its mouth. In this last roar, the air trembled, and the little devil at the top of the cage was the first to be blown away. When he landed, he wanted to roll over to Ji Huan, but was hit by a sound wave on the way, and the little devil finally fell from the sky.
When the owners of the seven towering boxes jumped down and landed on the devastated fighting arena to confirm the final result, what they saw were the scattered corpses all over the ground, and the little grey devil was crawling forward desperately with the last bit of consciousness.
“It seems that Mr. Firzaha’s little soldier survived in the end.” Said the demon who jumped out of the western box.
Other demons were also searching around, but they had to agree with the judgement of this demon.
“I played a good card for nothing—” It was the female demon who spoke, and she said this after confirming that the monster in the cage was dead. Unlike her sexy and hoarse voice, this woman was dressed in extremely conservative attire, and her appearance also looked very serious.
I got the best card in my hand, and was planning use this card to conquer the world, but who knew——
But who’s even more pitiful than me is the one in the eastern box, right? With just a little bit, the big winner could’ve been him.
The female demon slightly turned her head and looked towards the east: they all jumped directly from above, and they are now standing in the same position as the upper box, and the person standing on the east side at this moment happens to be the owner of the former eastern box.
It was a short old demon with drooping eyelids to his cheeks, and his clothes looked ordinary. She had never seen him before. In today’s game, there were actually two newcomers…
However, losing to this old man would’ve been worse than losing to Mr. Firzaha, a young and wealthy high-level demon, who is quite handsome and eye-catching.
“I would like to admit defeat—” Just as she was about to conclude the game, the fat demon next to her suddenly yelled.
“The one who survived to the end is clearly mine! Look, the waiter I threw down is still alive! That waiter is mine! Mine!”
His eyes were not big but his sight was really good. He saw Ji Huan the moment he opened his eyes.
The moment Ji Huan opened his eyes in confusion, what he saw was a group of demons standing in darkness not far from him.
The cruel demon named Lenny was standing closest to him, jumping and shouting something loudly. He was wearing a set of well-cut clothes, but even the best clothes looked extremely ridiculous on him. He was waving his thick arms in the air, and seemed to be pointing at something, one of which was himself, and the other…
Ji Huan squinted his eyes and looked at where his finger was, it was…
“Xiao Hui!”
After murmuring Xiao Hui’s name, Ji Huan instantly became dizzy.
His dizziness was severe, his vision started to turn black, and he had no strength at all.
He hasn’t been so powerless for a long time. The last time he was like this, it was when he escaped from the room full of monsters with Grandpa and Hei Dan. Carrying Grandpa on his back, when he felt Grandpa’s vitality gradually disappearing, Ji Huan felt that hope also disappeared little by little.
Then what? With Grandpa on his back and Hei Dan in his arms, he climbed over a wall.
And then…
Across the water surface full of water lilies, he saw Ah Jin.
Ah Jin…
Thinking of Ah Jin, Ji Huan raised his head, and his eyes instantly fell into the dark pool.
The clothes on his body changed from a snow-white robe to a black formal attire, and the original casual hairstyle was neatly combed. The whole person looked very strange, but…
That person is Ah Jin.
Ji Huan’s heart suddenly settled down.
After retching a few times, he stood up on his knees.
“Come here.” He heard Ah Jin’s voice, and knew that the sentence was meant for him.
Taking a deep look at Ah Jin, Ji Huan struggled to pick up the little gray devil from the ground and obediently walked towards Ah Jin’s direction.
“What does this mean? Get over here! You are mine! Mine!” The demon named Lenny was still roaring, and his palm like a cattail fan was about to pat Ji Huan on the shoulder. At this moment, he fell heavily.
The old demon standing beside him had stretched out his leg and tripped him.
That old demon is——
The owner of the eastern box.
There was no light in those eyes that were similar to stagnant water, and the black-haired demon retracted the palm he was about to raise, but not completely. When the half-grown youth was about to walk to his side, he stretched out his arms and embraced the other person’s shoulders.
The young man passed out the moment he was held. Fortunately, the black-haired demon caught him and hugged the young man together with the little grey devil in his arms. The corner of the black-haired demon’s mouth hooked up and he smiled slightly.
His gaze towards the young man was gentle, but when it turned towards the demon named Lenny on the ground, it was icy cold:
“This is my person.”
After only saying such a sentence, the black-haired demon immediately walked away with the person in his arms.
——
When Ji Huan woke up, he found that his whole body was in pain. He touched his forehead and found that the wound on his forehead was bandaged.
He sat up with difficulty, and when he raised his head and looked forward, he saw the man by the window who was bathed in the sunlight.
Against the sunlight, Ji Huan could only see the golden outline of the face, the man’s pale and slender fingers, and the book in his hand.
“Ah Jin?” Ji Huan tentatively called out the other party’s name.
Then he turned his head and smiled at Ji Huan.
“You are awake?” The other party came over, slightly tapped his forehead with a cold palm, and said, “It’s not burning anymore.”
The man handed him a cup of water, and Ji Huan took the cup. When he saw the tea leaves floating in it, he first took a deep breath of the fragrance of the tea leaves, and then began to drink the tea in small sips.
“Ah Jin, thank you.” After drinking the tea, Ji Huan thanked him sincerely.
Ah Jin smiled slightly, and pointed to the left direction with his slender fingers:
“Your friends are all next door, do you want to go and see them?”
Ah Jin made a suggestion.
Ji Huan nodded quickly, but he was not strong enough, and he couldn’t get off the bed after moving for a long time. In the end, Ah Jin came and picked him up, carrying him all the way to the next room.
Abu and Naji are both in that room. Abu’s ears are pressed against the wall, as if he was listening to the movement on the other side, while Naji was foolishly sitting on the head of the bed, as if guarding the little grey devil.
The little grey devil slept peacefully on the soft bed, his clothes were stripped off, and he was holding a black shirt in one of his little paws, which looked familiar.
Looking down, Ji Huan realised that his upper body was naked— no shirt.
“He kept grabbing your shirt and didn’t let go when we were trying to separate the two of you, so we had to take off your shirt in the end.” Ah Jin’s voice came from above.
Because the two were now very close together, so when the other party spoke, Ji Huan could feel the slight tremor of the joint between the two.
As soon as he spoke, the people in the room seemed to notice his arrival.
Abu immediately pulled himself off the wall, and was obviously taken aback when he saw the two people who appeared in the room at some unknown time.
Naji was also obviously startled, and quickly turned his head towards the direction where Ah Jin appeared, and he didn’t relax until he saw Ji Huan in his arms.
Walking over cautiously, Naji looked at Ah Jin, then carefully touched Ji Huan’s forehead.
Gently poking the wound on his forehead, Naji asked, “Ji Huan, does it still hurt?”
Ji Huan: It didn’t hurt at first, but when you poked it, it hurt almost to death.
Naji’s strength was too great, and even the lightest strength was unbearable for Ji Huan.
Seeing this, Abu quickly grabbed Naji’s claws and fixed his eyes on Ah Jin, his eyes guarded and filled with panic.
Ah Jin just smiled, put Ji Huan on the bed, and left.
Only then did Abu heave a sigh of relief.
“Ji Huan, you finally woke up, that person was in the room with you, so we didn’t dare to go in.”
“Who is that person? He looks so imposing. We were in the game, but someone told us that the game was cancelled and asked us to come over immediately. At that time, we thought something happened!”
“I, it’s my first time to ride in an aeroplane…”
“Only us, no other passengers, are all aeroplanes like this?”
The two friends talked to each other. From their accounts, Ji Huan pieced together what happened after he fell unconscious.
After he fainted, Ah Jin not only took himself away, but he also brought Abu and Naji in an aeroplane. After that, a doctor came to see them, and now they are living in a big house.
The little grey devil was also brought over.
“Ah Jin is the one who brought me here. He gave me my house, and the money, and he also gives my family a lot of things every month.” Ji Huan told them about Ah Jin.
“…In short, Ah Jin is a good person.”
Naji was okay, but Abu’s face was a bit weird.
The one who gave the house and the money, it sounds like taking care of a lover…..
Abu had been working outside for quite some time now, and he knows a lot of things.
However, Naji was completely unaware of this.
“My mother also knew such a good person. Before, a demon gave her a house and gave her money every month.”
This is the first time that Naji mentioned his family, and it is also the first time that Ji Huan realised that Naji has a family, which is considered very rare in Yefar.
“But then my mother fell ill and her health deteriorated, so she was kicked out by that demon, and she ran out of money.”
This is obviously a real nurturing relationship.
In Yefar, this is also very common.
However——
Abu’s expression became even weirder, fearing that Ji Huan would be sad if this topic continued, he hastily interrupted Naji’s words and brought the topic to the little grey devil.
“Let’s take a look at Xiao Hui, he should be waking up soon.”
So, the three friends gathered around the big bed together. It is not known whether the doctor’s guess was accurate or their previous discussion was too loud. But under the gaze of the three of them, the little grey devil really slowly opened his eyes.
Crawling out of the quilt, the little devil originally wanted to bow to everyone, but just after crawling out, he found himself naked, so he had to crawl back again, and burrow under the quilt. He bowed shyly but solemnly from under the quilt.
The room was instantly filled with Abu’s loud laughter.
Ah Jin stood quietly outside the door, and he naturally heard all the conversations of the demons in the room. When he heard Ji Huan calling him a “good person”, he smiled.
Just at this moment, an old demon walked over from the other end of the corridor with his hands behind his back.
It’s Adan.
He also came here in Ah Jin’s private aeroplane and he just went outside for a walk.
Two demons, one tall and one short, met in the corridor.
“Long time no see.” Adan spoke first.
Ah Jin didn’t answer him.
The black eyes stared directly at the old demon, and the smile on his face completely disappeared.
“Ji Huan has paid back the money you took from me, but you haven’t given me the wallet back yet.” The old demon said lightly.
Ah Jin looked down at the old demon. The old demon’s eyes were hidden under thick and drooping eyelids, and he couldn’t see the other party’s expression clearly.
“What do you want?” the black-haired demon asked softly.
The old demon suddenly raised his eyelids, and a pair of shining eyes looked straight at the black-haired demon above.
He stared for a long time until his eyelids drooped again.
“Didn’t you beat me in the previous game? I lost all my coffin money, can I not pay the gambling money?”
The black-haired demon: “…”
“You couldn’t have won without me.”
“Only half can be deducted.”
“How are you doing?”
“Not bad.”
“Did you get what you wanted?” the old demon continued to ask.
This time, the black-haired demon did not answer.
Sighing, the old demon walked forward with his hands behind his back. He pushed open the door of the room, and also went in to see the little grey devil.
