The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 125

Chapter 125: Invasion Commencement (2)

One week later.

“I think we’ve done enough research. Let’s decide where to invade.”

Jung Minwoo pointed at the five candidates listed on the desk.

“First, if we’re voting, I choose the volcanic island kingdom, ‘Hammer’ Kingdom.”

Jung Minwoo cast his vote for ‘Hammer’ Kingdom, where only Dwarves lived.

“May I ask why?”

At Venus’s question, Jung Minwoo explained his reasoning.

“First, there are no other countries around it, and it’s surrounded by the ‘sea’.”

“The sea?”

“Yes, being surrounded by the sea makes it difficult to ask other countries for help.”

Even if they were lucky enough to ask for help, it would take a considerable amount of time due to the sea.

“Also, they haven’t had a war in a long time, so their individual combat abilities are weak, making them a suitable target for invasion.”

If their military power was weak, even his Demon Servants, whose powers were restricted, would have no trouble dealing with them.

“But won’t there be a problem when we move to invade other kingdoms?”

Jung Minwoo chuckled at Venus’s concern.

“No, ‘Hammer’ Kingdom is a place where trade flourishes, so their ships are dozens of times better than those of other countries. There won’t be any problems moving.”

Their ships were remarkably fast, which would allow for a swift invasion.

“And the ships are equipped with other functions besides speed.”

It wasn’t for nothing that the nation was run by the Dwarf race; their ships boasted various combat functions.

If they could use this place as a base, they wouldn’t have to worry about attacks from other countries.

“Originally, I had another kingdom in mind, but after hearing Minwoo-nim’s explanation, starting with ‘Hammer’ Kingdom seems better.”

Convinced by Jung Minwoo’s opinion, Venus cast her vote for ‘Hammer’ Kingdom.

“…I think ‘Hammer’ Kingdom is a good choice.”

“I don’t mind wherever we go.”

“Indeed, after hearing the discussion, invading ‘Hammer’ Kingdom first seems to have many advantages! Ribbit, ribbit.”

Following suit, Elin, Anubis, and Rok cast their votes, and it was decided that they would invade ‘Hammer’ Kingdom.

“I’m going to my Personal Breeding Grounds for a bit. Please be ready to depart for ‘Dainik’ planet as soon as I get back.”

“Leave it to me.”

Leaving the rest to the Demon Communion members, Jung Minwoo tapped his bracelet to go to his Personal Breeding Grounds.

Crackle—

A crack appeared in the air.

Whoosh—

The crack widened, creating a black space.

T h i s w a s c o p i e d f r o m k i n gmt l . o r g
‘Shall we go?’

Jung Minwoo immediately stepped into the black space.

‘Surely, about 1 million survived, right?’

After the invasion of ‘Dainik’ planet was over. 1 million monsters survived.

Since this planet is as big as it is, 100 million were needed according to calculations.

‘I don’t have that much DP, though.’

He didn’t have a massive amount of DP to increase to 100 million.

‘It can’t be helped, it’s better to be satisfied with increasing to a moderate number.’

Thinking that he shouldn’t be greedy and increase to only 10 million, he was moving his steps towards the training ground when.

‘Hmm?’

Jung Minwoo doubted his eyes when he saw the monsters on the training ground.

Heehee―

It was only natural because young monsters were playing on the training ground.

‘There shouldn’t be young monsters like that in the personal breeding grounds…?’

Feeling puzzled, as he approached the training ground.

“Company, attention!!!”

The Hobgoblin who discovered Jung Minwoo shouted in a booming voice.

Chuck chuck―

Then, the monsters on the training ground stopped what they were doing and showed an orderly attention posture.
T hi s wa s c o pi e d f r o m k i n g mt l. or g

“Wooing?”

“Kkooing?”

The young monsters who were playing and joking with each other tilted their heads at the unfamiliar situation.

“Salute to the master!”

“””Loyalty!!!”””

As the monsters took the salute posture.

“Kkieek!”

“Kkooik!”

As if the salute posture looked cool, the young monsters clumsily imitated it.

“Alright.”

As he lightly accepted the greeting.

“Master, have you been well?”

The Hobgoblin approached and spoke to him.

“Yes, I’ve been well. But what are those kids over there?”

Jung Minwoo asked why the young monsters were there.

“Haha, that’s, after the invasion was over, when we entered a month of rest… the soldiers fell in love…”

The Hobgoblin scratched his head and explained the situation.

To summarize the explanation, due to the rest, there were monsters who fell in love, and as a result, children were also born.
T hi s w as c o pi ed f r o m k i n g m t l . o r g

‘Children…’

As Jung Minwoo was looking at the young monsters who were playing.

“I apologize! I tried to control them as much as possible, but I couldn’t stop it! All of this is my responsibility!”

The Hobgoblin, as if he took it in a different meaning, hurriedly knelt down and begged for forgiveness.

“I have no intention to blame you, so rise from your position.”

“Ah, I understand.”

At Jung Minwoo’s order, the Hobgoblin let out a sigh of relief and rose from his position.

“What’s the headcount?”

“According to our findings, it’s about 10 million.”

10 million.

It meant that the existing number had increased tenfold.

‘Come to think of it, it was written in the books that goblins and orcs are monsters with strong reproductive abilities.’

He had been so busy that he had forgotten such an obvious fact.

‘They must have been holding back because of the training and invasions, and it exploded during this rest period.’

Jung Minwoo felt a sense of complacency in his actions.

‘This place is good for training, but it’s not a good environment for raising children…’

He felt regretful for not having estimated and prepared for this in advance.

‘From now on, I’ll create an environment suitable for raising children.’

Jung Minwoo decided to take some time to look around the inside of the building separately.

‘By the way, they’re just young monsters, but they already have muscles forming.’

Muscles that seemed a bit excessive for just playing.

‘But it doesn’t seem like they’ve been trained separately.’

Jung Minwoo looked at the scene with some puzzlement, but soon he was able to realize the reason.

‘I guess they inherited superior genes.’

Through various invasion activities, only strong monsters survived, so passing on superior genes was only natural.

‘…If this is the case, creating an even stronger army wouldn’t be difficult.’

As time passed, the monsters would grow into powerful soldiers.

‘To see a dramatic effect, would it be better to eliminate their racial values?’

Racial value.

It referred to the limits set by a species.

【Species Limit Removal Ticket】

As the Demon Lord Shop Window sold an artifact that removes species limits, eliminating racial values wasn’t difficult.

‘If they could inherit the absence of racial values genetically, their growth would be explosive.’

It was a hypothesis, but if a goblin could grow steadily, it would be able to catch even a dragon.

Th i s w as co pi e d f ro m k in g mtl. o r g
‘Okay, let’s buy it as an investment for the future.’

He wanted to buy according to the number, but.

‘The price is high, so 5 will be the maximum.’

Calculating the DP he could use, purchasing 5 was the limit.

‘As time passes, the number will increase, so it won’t matter.’

Having finished his thoughts, Jung Minwoo looked at the Hobgoblin and said.

“Select the 5 strongest monsters among those with high ranks.”

“I will obey your command!”

A moment later.

“Master, I have brought the personnel you requested!”

The Hobgoblin reported that he had brought the personnel.

Thi s w a s c o p i e d f r o m k i n g mt l . or g
Looking in that direction.

‘Including the one who received the order, there’s 4 Hobgoblins and 1 Orc?’

The monsters were standing in front of the platform with nervous faces.

‘Then, shall we buy it right away?’

Jung Minwoo opened the ‘Demon Lord Shop Window’ without delay, purchased the artifact, and used it on the monsters.

【The limits of the species have disappeared, and they have gained the opportunity for infinite development】

Then, a message window stating that the racial values had disappeared appeared before his eyes.

‘It’s a shame to end it here, so shall I share a little demonic energy?’

It was an action he hadn’t even thought of when he was at the training center, but.

‘It’s a different story now.’

Now that the racial values had disappeared, he thought he could afford this much investment.

‘Still, giving too much demonic energy would be a loss, so it’s better to share only a small amount.’

Jung Minwoo stretched out his hand and shared demonic energy with the five monsters.

【Having had the limits of the species removed, they have been bestowed with the demonic energy of a high-ranking demon】

【The quality of the bestowed demonic energy is high】

【Their rank of existence has risen from ‘Monster’ to ‘Demon Beast’】

As the message window appeared.

“””Kku, Kkuaaak!”””

“Kkueeeeek!”

The Hobgoblins and the Orc began to scream in pain as they were engulfed in demonic energy.

‘Their rank has risen to Demon Beast…?’

He was feeling perplexed by the situation he was experiencing for the first time.

Chiiiik―

As the demonic energy was absorbed into the monsters’ bodies, there stood monsters, no, Demon Beasts, that were different from before.

Looking at the appearance of the Demon Beasts.

‘Black?’

Their skin color had changed to black, and he could see that their height and skeleton had grown even larger.

‘…Amazing.’

It was clear at a glance that their strength had increased to an incomparable level.

‘Why didn’t they tell me about this at the training center?’

He felt puzzled as to why they hadn’t shared this method.

‘Ah… They didn’t tell me because they didn’t know.’

He was able to realize the reason without difficulty.

‘Only a few people can use the Demon Lord Shop Window, and there are no demons who would invest in monsters.’

Demons didn’t see monsters as anything more than disposable tools, so they didn’t make excessive investments like Jung Minwoo.

‘It’s more profitable to corrupt higher beings than to manage monsters.’

Besides, why would a Demon Lord bother to raise monsters?

‘If things go well, I might be the first.’

Th i s w a s c o p ie d f r o m ki n gm t l . o r g
Jung Minwoo decided that he should never tell anyone about this information except for the Demon Communion members.

‘Well, even if they knew, they wouldn’t be able to do it.’

He was lost in thought for a moment when.

“St, Strength is surging from my body!”

“My body color?!”
T h i s was c o p i ed f r om k in g m t l . o rg

“I feel like I can do anything!”

T h is wa s c o p i ed f r o m ki n g m tl. o r g
“With this power…!”

“I want to test this power right now!”

The Demon Beasts who had been bestowed with new power exclaimed in admiration.

“Want to spar later?”

“Sounds good.”

“My body is already itching?”

“Can I join in too?”

They couldn’t keep their bodies still, as if they wanted to use the power themselves.

‘I think I need to calm them down first?’

As Jung Minwoo was about to calm the Demon Beasts.

“Master, what kind of disgraceful behavior is this in front of you?!”

One Demon Beast shouted at another.

“””Ma, Master, I apologize.”””

Then, as if the Demon Beasts realized their mistake, they hurriedly bowed their heads and apologized.

“It’s alright. You must be excited to have gained such power.”

Jung Minwoo didn’t intend to blame them because he understood how they felt.

“However, don’t be complacent just because you’ve gained power. Understand?”

“””Ah, I understand!”””

“Also, sow your seeds and leave behind strong descendants to contribute to the Demon World.”

“””I understand!!!”””

The Demon Beasts answered with a deep smile, as if they were confident in this aspect.

“Good. You stay here, and the rest of you can go.”

“””Yes!”””

“You and I will take a look inside the building.”

“I understand.”

Afterward, Jung Minwoo entered the building with the remaining Demon Beast, no, the ‘Black Goblin’.
