The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 155

Chapter 155: Dragon (1)

After arriving on the planet where dragons live.

“Shall we go find the dragons right away?”

I set out to find dragons right away with the Demon Communion members.

Unlike what I had expected to find easily.

‘Where are they located?’

Finding the dragons was not an easy task, contrary to my expectations.

‘I can’t feel their power?’

It was only natural since I couldn’t feel any of their unique strong energy.

‘At the very least, I should be able to feel mana…’

Moreover, I couldn’t feel the vast mana, so I was at a loss.

I had no choice but to confront it head-on, and after looking around half of the planet.

‘They’re not on the ground.’

I was able to conclude that they were not on the ground.

‘Then, are they in the sky?’

As I thoroughly searched the sky with the Demon Communion members.

‘…Found it!’

We were able to discover an island floating in the sky.

T h i s w a s c o p i e d f r o m k i ngm tl. or g
‘No wonder I couldn’t feel their power, they’ve done something cute, haven’t they?’

And I was able to realize the reason why I couldn’t feel their power.

‘How many magic circles have they engraved?’

Tens of thousands of magic circles were engraved on the island, which was why I couldn’t feel their power.

‘That’s why I couldn’t find them.’

You might wonder if a demon should be able to find such a trick right away, but.

T h i s w a s co p ie d f ro m k i n g m tl . o r g
‘Since we haven’t invaded the planet, our senses are bound to be restricted.’

Not being able to interfere with a planet that hasn’t been invaded meant that our power was restricted.
T h i s wa s c op ied f ro m k i n gm t l. or g

Continuing on, as I entered the island.

‘Hoo…’

I could feel a powerful force, and I could see the dragons settled there.

“Wow, they’re quite big for lizards, aren’t they?”

Anubis let out a genuine admiration while looking at the dragons that were the size of a house.

“Since they’re big, they must have a good punching feel? Minwoo, can you assign one to me as a punching bag if you corrupt them?”

And she asked with sparkling eyes if she could use a dragon as a punching bag.

“Even if you assign one, it’ll die right away after one hit, so it won’t be able to serve as a punching bag, right?”

Jung Minwoo shook his head and refused Anubis’s request.

No matter how much transcendental power a higher being possesses, it couldn’t compare to a demon.

‘William got beaten by a pinky finger, so it’s obvious without even seeing it.’

If it was a dragon with a lower rank, it would likely die from Anubis’s breath alone.

“Eh, but isn’t dying in one hit an exaggeration? You’re teasing me now, right?”

Anubis didn’t believe that something so big could die in one hit, but.

“Ah… You said William got beaten by a pinky finger?”

When I told her the story about William, she nodded her head as if she believed it.

“Tsk… They were just flashy on the outside, weren’t they?”

However, she couldn’t shake off her disappointment, constantly licking her lips while looking at the dragons.

‘Do you really need a punching bag?’

Jung Minwoo felt a question arise from Anubis’s reaction and asked.

“Isn’t sparring with the others enough?”

“There are times when you need to train alone.”

“Alone?”

“Yeah, but swinging at the air doesn’t suit my taste.”
Th i s w a s co p i e d f r om k i n gmt l . o r g

And from Anubis’s answer, I was able to understand why she wanted a punching bag.

‘Well, there are times when you need individual training.’

Considering Anubis’s personality, I thought that a training method of swinging at the air wouldn’t suit her.

‘I should buy her a punching bag from the shop window later.’

I decided to buy her a punching bag when the invasion of the ten thousandth planet was over.

‘If I only buy one for Anubis, it’ll be a bit unfair, so I should buy one for the others too, right?’

Jung Minwoo told the Demon Communion members that he would buy each of them a training tool of their choice when all the planetary invasions were over.

“Buy me the best punching bag!”

Anubis shouted with joy, requesting a punching bag, and.

“I’ll think about it.”

“…Training tool? I think I need to think about it.”

“I’ll think about it until then! Ribbit, ribbit.”

The other Demon Communion members replied that they would think about whether they needed anything.

‘Now that the punching bag issue is resolved, shall we check the dragon’s information?’

When Jung Minwoo used ‘Heaven’s Eye’ on a passing dragon.

Talent: 【Gifted】, 【Heart】, 【Mana Affinity】, 【Dual Thinking】, 【Dignity】

Current Emotion: Boredom

‘It seems that they weren’t lying about being transcendental beings.’

Seeing that it had five talents, I could tell that they were a pretty useful species.

‘If a mere lizard is like this, I’m looking forward to seeing what the leader here is like.’

I thought that if we could just corrupt them, we might be able to obtain a pretty decent force.

“Then, shall we go find the leader here?”

Just as I was about to move to find the leader.
T h i s wa s co p i e d f r om k i n g m tl . o r g

“…Minwoo, do we just need to find the one with the strongest power here?”

Elin asked, pulling on my collar.

If it were anywhere else, it would have been right to find the one with the strongest power here as she said, but.

“No, we have to find them in a different way.”

Th i s wa s c o pi e d fr om k i n g m tl . or g
Since there were buildings, or rather lairs, on the island with various magic circles installed to hide their power, we had to find them in a different way.

Originally, we would have had to go around each and every one of them to find the strongest one on this vast island, but.

Fortunately, Jung Minwoo knew an easy way to find the strongest one.

“We just need to find the most luxurious looking building on this island.”

That method was to find the most luxurious looking building on this island.

“…Luxurious building?”

“To be precise, we need to find the building that’s decorated with the most gold.”

“…Gold?”

You might think that transcendental beings would be detached from material desires, but.

‘Dragons are obsessed with treasure.’

It was more, not less, because of their species’ characteristics.

‘It’s said that the higher the rank of a dragon, the more treasure it has.’

When I briefly explained this fact to Elin.

“…I understand.”

Elin nodded her head and let go of the collar she was holding.

“We don’t have time, so let’s move to find it now.”

After that, when we flew around the sky for about an hour to find a luxurious building.

“That’s it.”

Sparkle, sparkle―

We were able to find a palace-style building that was not only decorated with gold but also embedded with various jewels.

“What do you think?”

Just in case, I asked the Demon Communion members for their thoughts.

“Seeing that it’s the most luxurious, I think it’s certain.”

T h i s w a s c o pi ed f rom k i ng m t l . org
“…There’s no other place.”

“Let’s go in right away!”

“How greedy are they? Ribbit, ribbit.”

They expressed their strong conviction that the leader would reside there.

“Good, let’s go right away.”

As we approached the palace.

‘Hoo, a golem?’
T h i s w a s c o pi e d f r o m k in g m t l . o rg

A golem the size of a mountain was guarding the front of the palace.

‘Is that the guardian?’

According to the encyclopedia, dragons place guardians to guard their lairs.

‘And it’s also said that the strength of the guardian is a symbol of the dragon’s power.’

Looking at the power emanating from the core that the golem held, it seemed to be at the level of a ‘Grand Sword Master’ who had just entered the realm.

‘If the guardian is at this level, it seems like we’ve come to the right place?’

With certainty, we entered the palace.

‘Hoo…’

I could feel an energy and intense mana that was dozens of times stronger than other dragons.

‘We definitely came to the right place.’

Jung Minwoo and the Demon Communion members moved their steps and exited the long corridor.

‘It’s huge.’

We were able to find a dragon that looked several times larger than the mountain-sized golem, sleeping soundly.

Looking closely at the dragon’s appearance, its skin was covered in red scales. Its wings were bat-like, similar to a demon’s, and its appearance resembled a lizard.

‘It looks strong.’

I didn’t know when I saw it in the encyclopedia, but seeing it in person, it looked so magnificent that it stimulated my desire to possess it.

It was already a pass based on the power I could feel, but.

‘It’s still good to check the information once, right?’

I decided to use ‘Heaven’s Eye’ to find out detailed information.

Looking at the Red Dragon in front of me, I used ‘Heaven’s Eye’.

【Loading information of ‘None’】

The information window of the higher being appeared.

『Information Window』

〈Basic Information〉

Name: None

Title: Kaiser

Gender: Female

Age: 8,020 years old

〈Detailed Information〉

Alignment: Evil

Talent: 【Transcendent】

Current Emotion: Sleep

‘She’s the same age as the World Tree?’

While looking at the information window, I realized that she was the same age as the World Tree.

T h is wa s c o p i e d f r o m k i n gm t l .o r g
‘They’d make good friends, wouldn’t they?’

Since they were the same age, they would have similar interests and have a lot to talk about.

‘Next, let’s continue looking at the information.’

Lowering my gaze, I looked at the information.

‘Transcendent?’

Unlike other dragons, I could see that she only had one talent.

‘What’s the effect?’

Jung Minwoo felt curious about the talent called ‘Transcendent’ and immediately checked its effect.

【Transcendent】

Upon victory in a battle against a strong opponent, one can transcend their limits.

However, the realm of immortality can never be reached, even if one continuously transcends their limits.

‘The effect is amazing.’

Transcending one’s limits could be considered a significant effect.

‘Even though it comes with the condition of winning a battle against a strong opponent, the fact that it’s a cheat-like effect remains unchanged.’

Since it held the possibility of infinite growth, it could achieve a high level even without receiving demonic energy.

‘Well, right now, she’s weak enough to be dealt with by William.’

Jung Minwoo closed the information window and asked the Demon Communion members standing beside him.

“What do you think? Do you like her?”

Even though he liked her, since he was looking for a higher being to corrupt with the Demon Communion members, he needed to hear their opinions.

“Compared to our demon servants, her power is quite unimpressive, but considering that she’ll receive demonic energy, I think it wouldn’t be bad.”

Venus gave her opinion that it wouldn’t be bad.

“She’s pretty good for a higher being, right?”

“…She seems adequate.”

“I like her! Ribbit, ribbit.”

Following that, Anubis, Elin, and Rok also expressed their agreement to corrupt her.

“Good, everyone agrees, so let’s try to corrupt her.”

Jung Minwoo showed a confident smile and revealed himself in front of the Red Dragon. At the same time.

“Don’t you want to fight a strong enemy? Then come under me. I’ll let you fight to your heart’s content.”

He immediately attempted to recruit her.

Then, the Red Dragon slowly opened her eyes and looked at Jung Minwoo with her red eyes.

Her eyes looked hazy, perhaps because she hadn’t fully woken up yet.

‘Now, let’s read her thoughts.’

Since I needed to know what the other person was thinking in order to persuade them accordingly, ‘Mind’s Eye’ was essential.

As I focused my mind on the Red Dragon.

【Hmm? Why is that bat bastard here?】

Letters combined above her head, forming the Red Dragon’s thoughts into text.

“…”

And Jung Minwoo, who had read her thoughts.

‘This son of a bitch?’

His expression began to distort.
