The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 163

Chapter 163: The Seven Demon Generals (3)

The Seven Demon Generals members were situated on ‘Lisker’ planet, having passed through the portal.

“Let’s make the rule that if the opponent faints or declares surrender, they lose.”

As Elvis presented the rule.

“Let’s do that.”

“Good.”

“Hohoho, let’s do that.”

Lilac, Vlad, and Isaac shrugged their shoulders, accepting the proposed rule.
T hi s w a s c op i e d f r o m k i n g m t l .o r g

“How are you thinking of conducting the duel?”

“How about we duel all at once?”

In response to Elvis’s question, Isaac suggested a group battle.

‘Since the numbers are odd, a group battle would be better.’

As they currently held the advantage in numbers, a group battle was a format that favored the existing leaders, giving them no reason to refuse.

“Good. Let’s start the duel as soon as everyone is ready.”

Elvis agreed to Isaac’s proposal.

T h is w a s c o p i ed fr o m k i n g mt l . o r g
“Hohoho, excellent.”

Isaac’s red eyes flashed.

“My army, arise!!!”

He extended both arms, releasing demonic energy.

“…Ugh!”

As Elvis and the other leaders frowned at the intense demonic energy.

Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud

The skeletons scattered on the ground, enveloped in demonic energy, began to rise from their positions.

“He wasn’t called the Lord of Death for nothing…”

The existing leaders’ faces hardened at the number of undead stretching beyond the horizon.

T h i s w a s copie d f r o m k i ng m t l. o r g
“Then, I’ll get ready too.”
T hi s wa s c o p i e d fr o m k in g m t l . o r g

Lilac stepped back.

“Polymorph, release.”

She deactivated the transformation magic.

Crack-

Lilac’s body rapidly expanded.

“Ah, this is much more comfortable.”

She transformed into a gigantic dragon, a single breath of which seemed capable of destroying the world.

T h i s w a s c o p i e d fr o m k i n gm t l .org
“Now, is it my turn?”

Next, Vlad shrugged.

“Let’s have a festival of blood.”

His eyes became bloodshot, radiating a murderous intent that threatened to tear everything apart.

The aura of a powerful being was clearly evident.

‘They possess the strength worthy of a leader’s position.’

Elvis realized once again that the Demon Lord-nim hadn’t recruited them without reason.

‘We’ve ended up in a fight disguised as a duel, but it’s fortunate that they’re nominally allies.’

If he had encountered such beings during a planetary invasion, he would have been defeated without even being able to put up a fight.

‘Because I wouldn’t be able to defeat them while under the restrictions on my power.’

However, now that he was free from those restrictions.

‘I could crush them easily.’

He was confident that he could easily win the fight.

‘Now that they seem ready, shall I prepare myself as well?’

Finishing his thoughts, Elvis raised his demonic energy.

Rumble, rumble-

Dark clouds gathered in the sky, casting a shadow over the land.

“It’s been a while since I’ve used my full power.”

Elvis waved his hand.

Rumble, crash!!!

Black lightning bolts from the dark clouds struck Elvis.

Rumble, rumble, rumble-

The ground trembled, and dust rose from the impact.

Moments later, as the dust settled.

Crackle-

“This feeling of omnipotence… I can’t wait to start the duel.”

Elvis, enveloped in black lightning, appeared with a dazed expression.

In the past, using this power once would have rendered him unable to use demonic energy for decades. However, after exceeding his previous rank, he could now use it freely.

“Wow… Elvis-nim, you’ve transformed so coolly.”

The World Tree beside him let out a soft exclamation of admiration.

“Then, shall I get ready too?”

She began preparing for the duel.

Crack-

Her legs transformed into tree roots.

Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud

They dug into the ground and began to spread.

“Hmm, even though it’s a destroyed planet, it’s full of nutrients. I’ll put these nutrients to good use.”

She waved her hand.

Wooong.

A dark blue energy, brimming with immense power, emerged, enveloping the World Tree’s body.

“Now, it’s my turn.”

Gob, standing in front, grabbed the hilt at his waist.

Swoosh

He drew his sword.

Shwaaaack-

Releasing a fierce energy, he transformed into a form resembling a demon.

“I guess I’m the only one left to finish preparing.”

William looked at the newly joined leaders with competitive eyes.

“Hup!”

With a shout, he drew upon his demonic energy.

Sizzle-

A burning sound filled the air as flame patterns began to appear on William’s body.

Sizzle-

When the patterns covered his body from his feet to his neck.

Whoosh-

Whoooosh

His head was engulfed in crimson flames, emanating intense heat.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle-

The heat was so intense that mirages shimmered in the air, distorting the surrounding space.

“””…”””

The faces of the newly joined leaders hardened at the unexpectedly powerful display.

“Why, are you scared because we’re stronger than you thought?”

Elvis sneered, provoking them.

“Hohoho, what absurd words you utter. I merely thought you hadn’t risen to the position of leader by mere luck.”

Isaac rattled his jaw, retorting to the provocation.

“This is what makes a duel worth having.”

“Did you say fear? Don’t be ridiculous. I just thought the blood looked more delicious.”

Lilac and Vlad chimed in.
T h i s w a s c op i ed fr o m ki n g mt l .o r g

“Really? That’s a relief. I was worried you might be too scared to duel.”

“””…”””

However, Elvis’s unique way with words quickly silenced them.

After a moment of staring each other down.

“We didn’t reveal our power to engage in a war of words, so shall we begin the duel?”

“Let’s.”

They moved a distance apart to begin the duel.

“Then, let’s begin.”

“Good.”

As Elvis signaled the start of the duel.

Kaboom!

A powerful explosion erupted.

As the Seven Demon Generals members arrived on ‘Lisker’ planet.

‘The situation is unfolding interestingly.’

Jung Minwoo and the Demon Communion members were observing them, hidden from view.

‘It wouldn’t be bad to establish a hierarchy through this duel.’

Although he hadn’t anticipated it escalating into a duel, Jung Minwoo thought the situation was favorable.

‘The leaders who lose the duel will strive harder to win. And the leaders who win will strive harder to stay ahead.’

In other words, this duel would spark constant competition, accelerating their growth.

‘Well, if anyone gets eliminated in the process, they’ll have to be discarded.’

Since this wasn’t a charity but an organization focused on invasion, any eliminated Demon Servant would have to be replaced with a new one.

‘I hope that doesn’t happen.’

As he was contemplating what measures he should take to prevent such a scenario.

“Minwoo-nim, shouldn’t we stop them?”

Venus approached him, her expression filled with worry.

“Why, are you worried?”

“Yes, I’m worried that the Demon Servants might get hurt.”
Thi s w a s c o p ie d f r om ki n g mt l . or g

Jung Minwoo chuckled at her concern.

“Kids grow through fighting.”

“Aren’t they a bit too old to be called kids?”

Venus questioned his use of the word “kids.”

“Anyway, don’t worry. By the way, who do you think will win the duel?”

Jung Minwoo smoothly changed the subject.

Venus pondered for a moment.

“Hmm… Honestly, I want to root for the existing leaders, but I think the newly joined leaders will win.”

She sided with the newly recruited leaders.

“Why?”

“Their racial value is higher than the existing leaders, but the biggest reason is that Isaac can use Minwoo-nim’s demonic energy.”

Jung Minwoo nodded in agreement with Venus’s explanation.

“That makes sense.”

The Demon Lord’s demonic energy was qualitatively different, making it impossible for higher beings to handle.

“Who do you think will win, Minwoo-nim?”

“I think the existing leaders will win.”

Jung Minwoo answered without hesitation.

“Could you tell me why?”

T h i s w as c o pi e d f r o m k i n g m t l. o r g
“Isaac can’t properly handle my demonic energy.”

“He can’t properly handle the demonic energy?”

“No, he doesn’t have the capacity for it.”

No matter how much he could use the Demon Lord’s demonic energy, his limitations as a higher being prevented him from fully controlling it.

“Of course, even if he can’t handle it properly, demonic energy is still demonic energy, so it’ll be enough to overwhelm most higher beings.”

“Isn’t that still incredible…?”

Venus looked puzzled.

“It is incredible, but the existing leaders can offset that with their extensive combat experience.”

“Combat experience…”

He considered explaining the significant difference in unique traits as well.

‘Hmm… It wouldn’t be bad to help them develop their analytical skills.’

He decided against explaining further and instead suggested something else.

“Watching alone won’t be fun, so how about we make a bet?”

“A bet?”

“Yes, how about the losing demon grants a wish?”

Through the bet, the loser would gain insight, broadening their perspective.

As he waited for Venus’s answer.

“Um…”

She suddenly blushed.

“Anything… is allowed?”

She fidgeted, asking for clarification on the limits.

Gulp-

His mind was momentarily filled with lewd thoughts.

‘…I shouldn’t misunderstand her shyness. Last time, it was just a date request.’

He recalled his previous misunderstanding and managed to banish the lewd thoughts.

“…Anything is possible, as long as it’s not harmful.”

Venus smiled shyly.

“Then, okay.”

She accepted the bet.
T hi s w a s c op i ed f ro m k in g m t l . o r g

“…”

He was momentarily captivated by her charming demeanor.

“A bet? I want in!”

“…Count me in.”

“Sounds fun. Ribbit, ribbit.”

Anubis, Elin, and Rok expressed their desire to participate.

“Of course, this kind of thing is more fun with more people.”

Regaining his composure, Jung Minwoo agreed and asked who they thought would win.

“I’m going with the new guys.”

“…I agree.”

“Me too! Ribbit, ribbit.”

They all voted for the newly joined leaders.

He had unintentionally ended up in a 1 vs 4 situation.

‘If I win, I can use four wishes?’

The increased number of potential wishes delighted him.

‘It’s better to think about the wishes after winning the bet.’

He decided to postpone his happy contemplation and turned to the Demon Communion members.

“If any of you want to back out of the bet, you can do so now. Don’t regret it later after losing.”

He gave them one last chance to withdraw.

“I have no regrets.”

“Ooh, you’re confident.”

“…Minwoo, you’re the one who should be worried.”
T h i s w as c op i ed fro m k i n g mtl . o r g

“I can’t miss this chance to treat Minwoo like a servant! Ribbit, ribbit.”

They retorted, telling him not to regret it.

‘…First, special training wish for Rok is confirmed.’

He decided to put Rok through rigorous training as punishment for his disrespectful thoughts.

“Alright. No backing out now.”

The bet was settled.

“Oh, it’s starting!”

Anubis announced the commencement of the Seven Demon Generals’ duel.

‘Let’s see.’

He shifted his gaze towards the Seven Demon Generals.

‘They’re fighting quite seriously.’

He observed them clashing with each other, using their full power.

‘If it gets too intense, I’ll have to intervene.’

Jung Minwoo decided to be cautious and prevent any accidents as he began watching the duel with the Demon Communion members.
