The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 164
Chapter 164: The Seven Demon Generals (4)
“Die!”
Fwwoooosh―
The first attack began with Lilac breathing out her breath.
“Oh my, killing your own comrade? How scary.”
The World Tree chuckled and waved her hand.
Crack, crack, crack―
In just a few seconds, lush trees began to sprout from the barren land.
T h i s w a s c opi e d fr o m k i n gmtl . o r g
When the trees grew to the size of Lilac.
Tssssss―
The breath slammed into the lush trees.
“It smells worse than I thought. Is it because of your bad breath?”
The trees quickly melted away because of it, but.
“Oh dear, I’ll have to make more trees.”
Crack, crack, crack―
The World Tree continued to create trees, effortlessly blocking the breath.
“…You blocked my attack?”
Lilac was bewildered that her attack had been so easily blocked.
“No. It did some damage. My head is dizzy because of your bad breath.”
The World Tree held her nose and pretended to stagger.
“I, I don’t have bad breath!”
“Then what is that smell?”
“Th-This is because of the acid…!”
Lilac blushed, appealing to the injustice she felt. At that moment.
“Don’t get caught up in her wordplay.”
Vlad interrupted, rushing towards the World Tree.
“Oh my, you caught me.”
The World Tree covered her mouth as if surprised, then.
“I don’t like aggressive men, so I’ll keep my distance.”
She waved her hand, raising the trees.
Crack, crack, crack―
The grown trees stretched out towards Vlad, but.
“Such an obvious attack won’t work on me.”
Poof.
Vlad’s body transformed into a red mist, easily dodging the reaching trees.
“First, I’ll take your blood!”
And upon reaching the World Tree, Vlad revealed his form and bared his teeth.
Crackle―
“Ugh?!”
However, black lightning struck Vlad’s body, preventing him from continuing his attack.
“You…!”
Vlad turned his gaze with murderous intent.
“Your eyes are disrespectful.”
Elvis was watching Vlad with his arms crossed.
“This bastard…!”
Vlad tried to approach Elvis by transforming into red mist, but.
“Don’t be ridiculous.”
Rumble― Boom!!
Black lightning pierced through the red mist.
“Ugh?!”
Crackle―
Electrocuted, Vlad returned to his original form and rolled pathetically on the floor.
“Are you satisfied with the taste of lightning instead of blood?”
Seeing Vlad fallen on the floor, Elvis provoked him by raising one corner of his mouth.
Thi s w a s co p i e d f r o m k i n gmtl .o rg
“Son of a bitch…!!”
Vlad frowned and scattered blood.
Splat―
Then the blood transformed into sharp needles.
Whoosh―!
They flew towards Elvis at a speed that was difficult to see with the naked eye.
“Hmm.”
Crackle, crackle, crackle, crackle, crackle―
Elvis calmly summoned black lightning, trying to evaporate the blood, but.
“Hmph, you think that will work?”
Th i s w a s c o p i e d fro m k i n g m t l . o r g
Whirl―
The blood was too small and agile, so he failed to evaporate it.
“Oh dear…”
Then, the moment the blood reached Elvis.
“I have no choice but to allow the attack.”
Elvis realized he couldn’t dodge the attack and took a defensive stance. At that moment.
Crack―
Thud, thud, thud, thud―.
Trees sprouted from the floor, blocking the blood.
“You think you can block it with that?”
T h i s w a s c o p ie d f r o m k i n g m t l . o r g
Vlad scoffed and snapped his fingers.
Zzzzt―
The blood pierced through the trees and flew towards Elvis.
“I don’t need to allow the attack anymore.”
Crackle―
Thanks to the slowed movement, Elvis was able to easily evaporate the blood using black lightning.
“Tsk!”
Vlad clicked his tongue and was about to scatter blood once more.
“Aren’t you being too careless?”
“You’ll have to drop out first.”
The World Tree and Elvis attacked together.
“…”
Vlad wore a distressed expression and donned a Bloody Armor made of blood to block the attack, but.
Boooom―!
Clang―
“Cough?!”
The Bloody Armor surrounding his body shattered, and he rolled pathetically on the floor once again.
“It’s over.”
The moment Elvis was about to strike Vlad to finish him off.
“Bone Prison!”
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh―.
Huge bones sprang out of the ground, preventing him from continuing the attack.
T hi s w as c op ied f r o m k i n g m t l . o r g
Step, step, step―!
Elvis had no choice but to retreat and tried to approach again by turning around, but.
“Thank you, Isaac!”
Vlad seized the opportunity and escaped from his spot.
“Damn it.”
Elvis felt regretful that he couldn’t finish him off and tried to chase after him, but.
“I found an opening!”
Whoosh―!
Lilac swung her giant tail towards Elvis.
It was too late to dodge.
“Your stance is unstable… I have no choice.”
Elvis gave up on dodging and was about to counterattack.
“I’ll block it.”
Gob appeared and swung his sword at Lilac’s tail.
Clang―!
As the sword and tail collided.
“Huh?”
Lilac’s tail bounced back, and her body tilted backward.
“This will hurt a little.”
Gob seized the opportunity and swung his sword down.
T h i s was c o p ie d fr o m ki n gm t l . or g
Slash―!
Splat―!
“Ah, ahhhhh!”
The tail split in half, and blood gushed out.
“H-How dare you… my tail?!”
Enraged, Lilac unleashed all sorts of magic, but.
“You’re too excited.”
Clang, clang, clang, clang―!
Gob displayed dazzling swordsmanship, neutralizing all the magic.
“Since we’re comrades, I’ll only take your eyes.”
He then lunged at Lilac with his sword enveloped in demonic energy.
“First, one.”
And just as he was about to stab her eye with his sword.
“Kyaaaaaaaa!”
Lilac let out a Dragon Fear with a furious expression.
“Ugh!”
Gob, momentarily paralyzed, tried to shake it off, but.
Boooom!!!
He was struck directly by her fist and slammed into the ground.
“D-Don’t underestimate me!”
Lilac raised her other hand to finish off Gob.
“Huh?”
A crack appeared in her eye, and then.
Splat―!
“Ah, ahhhhh!”
Blood burst out, and darkness fell upon her vision.
“I accidentally took two instead of just one.”
Gob got up from the floor, dusting himself off, and joked.
“I hope you’re not too angry that I injured your eyes. Dragons have great regenerative abilities, don’t they?”
“I-I won’t let you get away with this!!!”
Lilac, enraged by the fact that she had allowed the attack so easily, unleashed all sorts of magic in all directions.
Boom, boom, boom―!
Thus, the sparring that had started lightly was now turning into a brawl.

Meanwhile, William.
“Vanish.”
Was facing the army of the dead alone.
Every time William waved his hand.
Whoosh―
The undead, stretching beyond the horizon, were engulfed in crimson flames and turned to ashes.
“I need to take care of this quickly and help the others.”
William diligently released crimson flames, reducing the number of undead. At that moment.
“Chuckle, chuckle, such intense heat? Bone Spear.”
Isaac appeared and shot a sharp, giant bone.
“Thank you for the compliment.”
Whoosh―
Expecting a surprise attack, William calmly shot out crimson flames, melting the giant bone.
“Hmm…”
As if he didn’t expect it to melt even this, Isaac let out a strange exclamation of admiration, then.
“It seems like hunting, no, sparring will be fun. Dark Contense.”
With his red eyes gleaming, he cast the next spell.
Woo―.
Dark energy gathered in the air, and then.
“Try blocking this too.”
Whoosh―!
He shot it towards William.
“I’ll gladly block it.”
Whoosh―
William chuckled and released crimson flames.
Boooom―!
The two forces collided, creating a deafening explosion.
“…”
Seeing William standing there unharmed.
“You’re quite strong here, aren’t you?”
His playful voice turned serious.
T hi s wa s cop i ed fr o m k i n g m t l . o r g
“You flatter me too mu…”
“Hellfire!!!”
And while William was answering, Isaac seized the opportunity and cast a surprise spell.
Fwoosh―
The ground cracked, and black flames, ‘Black Flame,’ rose from the cracks, engulfing William.
“Chuckle, chuckle, chuckle, foolish to fall for a surprise attack!”
Seeing this, Isaac grabbed his ribs and burst out laughing. At that moment.
“Foolish is you, I think?”
Whoosh―
The black flames that had engulfed William turned crimson.
“Now it’s my turn.”
Whoosh―!
T h i s w a s co p i e d f ro m k i ngmt l . o r g
He shot crimson flames towards Isaac.
“Chuckle… chuckle?”
Isaac, unable to react in time.
“Aaaaagh!”
Was engulfed in crimson flames.
Sizzle―
Moreover, as if its durability was low, Isaac’s bones began to melt and turn to ashes.
“Huh?”
William was startled by the melting and hurriedly stopped the crimson flames, but.
Slide―
All the bones had already turned to ashes.
“…He dies like this?”
A body so weak that it was hard to believe he was a chosen Demon Servant.
He felt more dumbfounded by the commander’s death than guilty for killing him.
“…What happens now?”
William was wondering how he should atone for this grave sin when.
“Gate of Hell!!!”
Isaac’s voice came from behind.
“…?”
William doubted his ears and turned his head back.
Thud―!
He could see a giant gate shaped like a demon and Isaac standing next to it.
“You…?”
William looked at Isaac with puzzled eyes.
“Chuckle, chuckle, chuckle! You were fooled? I have an immortal body, so I don’t die!”
“…Which means?”
“Yes! I intentionally took the attack to set up a surprise attack and transferred my soul to another corpse. Chuckle, chuckle, chuckle!”
Isaac kindly explained the reason why he was alive.
“So that’s how it was…”
A bright smile spread across William’s face after hearing the explanation, and then.
“Then, I can go all out without worry.”
Rumble―
He began to emit an energy that seemed several times, no, dozens of times stronger than before.
“Uh…?”
Isaac, sensing danger.
“Open!”
Decided to stop William by opening the gate of hell.
Creak―
“If you surrender here, I’ll close the gate again!”
Then, as the gate of hell fully opened.
Woooosh―
T h is w as c o p ie d f r om k i n g m t l.or g
It created a powerful pressure, sucking in everything around it.
It was like a black hole’s suction force.
“Even you won’t be able to withstand this!”
Isaac was certain that even the commander chosen by the demon wouldn’t be able to withstand this magic.
“Well, I received demonic energy from the Demon Lord! Chuckle, chuckle, chuckle!”
Since the power of the magic had increased tenfold after receiving demonic energy from the demon, Isaac was convinced that this magic would determine the outcome of the sparring.
“Hmm?”
However, no matter how long he waited, only debris was sucked in, and there was no sign of William flying in.
‘I need to close the gate when he’s sucked in… When is he coming in?’
Isaac scratched his skull and was about to stop the gate of hell for a moment to look for William when.
Whoosh―
Th i s w a s c o p i e d f r o m k i n g m t l .o rg
“Huh?”
He felt an intense heat, and a bird engulfed in crimson flames appeared in the sky.
“Phoenix…?”
He felt perplexed at the sight of a creature from mythology.
“Are you ready?”
A familiar voice came from the bird presumed to be a phoenix.
“…William-nim?”
Isaac called out William’s name, just in case.
“Why are you calling me?”
“…”
The answer from the creature in the form of a phoenix made him realize it was William.
“Then, try blocking my attack.”
Then, the moment the phoenix, no, William flapped his wings.
“Ah… The situation is not good.”
Sweat began to bead on Isaac’s spine.
