Add entity and encrypt

await context.AddEncryptAsync(message, encryptionKey);
await context.SaveChangesAsync();

Get a list entities

var result = await context.Messages.AsNoTracking().ToListDecryptAsync(encryptionKey);

Select a single property and decrypt

var result = await context.Messages.AsNoTracking()
                                   .Where(x => x.Id == id)
                                   .Select(x => x.Text.Decrypt(encryptionKey))
                                   .FirstOrDefaultAsync(key);
