The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 107

Chapter 107: The End of the Bet (4)

After finishing the invasion of Dainik planet.

“You’ve all worked hard.”

Jung Minwoo and the Demon Communion members were meeting and conversing with Elvis.

“It was all possible thanks to your grace, Demon Lord.”

Even though it was an accomplishment of invading a planet, it was something to be proud of, but Elvis remained courteous until the end, attributing the credit to Jung Minwoo and the Demon Communion members.

“This was an accomplishment possible because it was you. So, there’s no need to give us all the credit for what you’ve done.”

“I’m just deeply moved by the Demon Lords’ profound consideration.”

At Jung Minwoo’s words, Elvis replied, bowing his head deeply.

“As per the contract, you’ve invaded all the nations, so I won’t be giving you any more orders.”

He then mentioned the contract terms, saying,

“No. If there’s a time when you need me, you can give me orders anytime.”

Elvis shook his head, expressing his desire to continue receiving orders.

“If that’s your will, I’ll give you new orders when the time comes.”

“I’ll look forward to the day I receive new orders.”

“Not just orders, but I’ll come visit you when I get the chance later on.”

“I’ll be waiting with joy.”

After the conversation ended like that.

“We’ll be on our way now.”

Jung Minwoo and the Demon Communion members stood up from the throne to leave.

“I’ll escort you.”

Elvis also stood up and approached them.

“Alright, please escort us this far.”

They could return to the Demon World right away using the necklace, but.

‘It was a bit unexpected that that guy suggested a meeting.’

Katra had suggested a meeting, which delayed their return to the planet.

‘What is he going to say that he suggested a meeting?’

T h i s w a s c o p i ed fr o m k i n g m t l . o r g
The thought crossed his mind that maybe Katra was trying to pull something now that the bet was over, but.

‘He’s not that stupid. That won’t happen.’

If he had any brains, he wouldn’t do such a thing.

‘Even if he tries to kill me, he can’t kill me now.’

No matter how much Katra held the 2nd Rank, he would be at a disadvantage if they fought on the planet that had just been invaded.

‘And even though the bet is over, it’s crazy to touch another Demon Lord’s subordinate.’

Moreover, if Katra touched him, Satan would demand astronomical compensation from Baal.

‘I don’t know what he wants to say, but I’ll find out when I meet him.’

Jung Minwoo decided to hear it directly from him and went out of the throne room.

“Well then, see you later.”

“Please go in.”

Flutter

As Jung Minwoo and the Demon Communion members spread their wings and flew towards the burnt forest.

‘There he is.’

He could see Katra situated in the middle of the forest.

Flutter

Jung Minwoo and the Demon Communion members moved to where Katra was and landed on the ground.

“Oh, you’re here?”

Katra greeted them with a sly smile.

“What’s the reason you wanted to meet?”

They weren’t close enough to exchange greetings and ask about each other’s well-being, so Jung Minwoo went straight to the point.

“We did compete in invading the planet together, but do you have to be so stiff?”

“If you called me here to exchange greetings, I’ll be on my way.”

At the unnecessary pretense of familiarity, Jung Minwoo shook his head and tried to leave without hesitation.

“Tsk, what a personality.”

Katra clicked his tongue and brought up the main point.

“How about making a separate bet with me?”

At the word “bet,” Jung Minwoo tilted his head and asked,

“A bet?”

“Yeah, it’s a shame to just end it like this and go back.”

He didn’t particularly feel the need to bet with Katra, but.

‘I should at least hear what kind of bet it is.’

He was curious about what kind of scheme Katra was trying to pull by suggesting a bet, so he decided to listen quietly.

“So, what kind of bet do you want to make with me?”

“A bet on who becomes a Demon Lord first. How about it?”

The unexpected content of the bet.

‘What’s he thinking, saying something like this?’

Jung Minwoo was puzzled by Katra’s intentions.

It was because he could be promoted to 1st Rank at once by using the ‘Rank Pass Ticket’ and ‘Demon Lord’s Authority’ once he reached 3rd Rank.

‘…He can’t not know this, can he?’

In the end, to figure out Katra’s true intentions, Jung Minwoo decided to use ‘Mind’s Eye’.

As he focused his mind on Katra.

【I’ll take the promotion exam in 5 years and become 1st Rank at once if I pass, but if I pass the promotion exam, I’ll also become 1st Rank.】

Letters combined above his head, and Katra’s thoughts were formed into text.

【Even if we reach the same rank, unlike me, who has a lot of experience, that guy has little experience, so I’ll be the one to become Demon Lord.】

Reading his thoughts, Jung Minwoo scoffed inwardly.

‘I thought he wasn’t stupid, but at this level, his head is not just empty, it’s rotten.’

It was absurd that Katra was confident that he would ascend to the position of Demon Lord just because he had lived longer.

Of course, experience couldn’t be ignored, but.

‘Has he already forgotten the fact that he lost to me?’

As he had already been defeated by him, Katra’s experience could be considered meaningless.

“The position of Demon Lord…”

He showed a slightly interested reaction.

“And the loser of the bet has to cough up all their demonic energy.”

Katra mentioned the stakes.

“If you cough up all your demonic energy, you’ll die?”

“You have to bet your life for it to be a real bet, right?”

His intentions were obvious, but.

‘Not bad.’

It wasn’t a bad proposition for Jung Minwoo either.

‘If I become a Demon Lord and get Katra’s demonic energy, I can further solidify my position.’

It was obvious that countless demons would come after him once he became a Demon Lord, so the more demonic energy, the better.

‘I was going to become a Demon Lord anyway, so it wouldn’t be bad to accept.’

After finishing his thoughts, Jung Minwoo nodded and said,

“You won’t regret this?”

“Regret? No way.”

At the confident answer, Jung Minwoo chuckled and took out a parchment from his pocket.

“Then, shall we draw up the contract right now since we’re talking about it?”

“I like how fast things are moving.”

Afterward, Jung Minwoo and Katra drew up the contract and made a new bet.

“Well then, I’m off.”

After Katra left with a triumphant look on his face.

“You’ll be getting additional demonic energy when you become Demon Lord.”

Venus, who was next to him, offered her congratulations in advance.

“Thank you.”

“But I thought he was someone with brains, yet in the end, he did something to hasten his own demise.”

At Venus’s following words, Jung Minwoo agreed, saying,

“He must think he’ll win if they really fight.”

He had given him a handicap of 1 year, which was 20 years in Dainik planet’s time, so he understood why Katra thought that way, but.

‘Still, the fact that he lost to a 4th Rank demon doesn’t change.’

If he had thought just once more, he wouldn’t have made this offer.

‘He lost even when he had a higher rank, so the result is obvious if his rank becomes the same as mine.’

When the bet comes to an end, Katra would regret this moment and face death.

“Now that we’re done here, shall we go back to the Demon World?”

“Let’s do that.”

Having finished all their business on Dainik planet, Jung Minwoo and the Demon Communion members returned to the Demon World.

When Jung Minwoo and Katra were having their conversation.

“Damn it!!!”

Crash

Baal, who had heard the news of losing the bet, was smashing things in his office, unable to control his anger.

“He was so confident, and he messed it up?”

Baal was thinking about what kind of punishment he would give Karma when he returned.

Knock knock

“Come in.”

Creak

“…Demon Lord. A, a guest has arrived.”

A demon entered the office with a pale face and informed him that a guest had arrived.

“A guest? I’m not in the mood to see anyone, so send them back.”

At Baal’s words, the demon, instead of answering, kept glancing at him and twitching his lips.

“Didn’t you hear me? I’m not in a good mood right now, so send them back.”

“…”

He explained the reason again, but the demon still didn’t show any intention of leaving.

“…Can you not hear me?”

Baal thought the demon was challenging his authority and was about to punish him, but.

“Yo! I’m here.”

Then, Satan opened the door and entered the office with a bright smile.

“…Satan.”

Baal frowned and muttered Satan’s name quietly.

“What in the world happened to your office? Did a thief break in or something?”

Satan looked around and couldn’t hide his surprise at the state of the office.

“Don’t we need to catch the thief quickly?”

And he smirked, mocking Baal.

“…Would a thief break into a Demon Lord’s office?”

T h i s w a s c o p i ed f r o m k i ng m t l .o r g
Baal sighed and said,

“Oh, then did you break it yourself?”

“…”

T h is was c op i e d fr om ki n g mt l . o r g
“It’s a waste to break things like this.”

Satan shook his head and offered his sincere advice.

“…Why did you come here…?”

T his w as c o pi ed f ro m k ingm tl . o rg
Baal gritted his teeth and asked why Satan had come.

“It’s nothing special, just came to deliver some news.”

“…News?”

“Yeah, news that my subordinate won the bet. Did you know?”

As expected, Satan brought up the bet.

‘His expression is shamelessly brazen.’

He could clearly deduce that Baal had smashed the things in his office because he couldn’t control his anger after hearing the news, but Satan acted like he didn’t know anything and spoke to him.

“…”

T his w as c op i e d fr om k i n g mt l. o rg
Baal felt absurd and didn’t answer.

“You didn’t hear? I thought so, that’s why I personally came to tell you.”

Satan clapped his hands as if he had expected Baal wouldn’t know.

“…I know, so please leave.”

Baal didn’t want to have this conversation at all, so he tried to end it quickly by answering and cutting it short, but.

“You knew? Then it’s easier to talk.”

Satan passed Baal and sat down on the sofa.

“…Sigh, what do you want to say?”

“Huh? No, seeing a 2nd Rank demon lose to a 4th Rank demon makes me worried that you’re lacking talent.”

“That’s my problem to solve, so you don’t have to worry about it.”

Thi s w as c o pi e d f r om k i n g mt l. o rg
“As a fellow Demon Lord, how can I just stand by and watch you suffer from a talent shortage?”

On the surface, there was nothing wrong with Satan’s words, so Baal couldn’t refute them.

‘Look at him rubbing it in.’

Baal wasn’t going to just take it, so he sarcastically asked Satan,

“If you’re not going to just stand by and watch, are you saying you’re going to hand over some talent?”

He thought he had sarcastically said it well, but.

“If you don’t talk back and listen to me well, I might just do that.”

Satan didn’t change his expression and countered Baal’s words.

“I’d like to teach you how to see talent and nurture them, but that’s a trade secret.”

And he stood up and patted Baal’s shoulder.

“So, behave yourself. Don’t act out of line and end up losing.”

Satan brought his mouth close to Baal’s ear and warned him in a chilling voice.

“Well then, I’ll be on my way. My subordinates who won the bet will be coming to the Demon World soon.”

As if he had never spoken in a chilling voice, Satan left the office with an innocent expression.

“…Satan, I’ll definitely pay you back for this humiliation someday.”

Baal glared at the office door where Satan had left and trembled with anger.
