The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 201
Chapter 201: Demon Lord
About an hour later, the fight continued in a deadlock.
About 3 hours later, Jung Minwoo began to gain a slight advantage.
About 5 hours later, Andromalius’s stamina dropped significantly, and he was unable to counterattack properly.
About 8 hours later, Andromalius focused solely on defense instead of offense.
And 12 hours after the ‘Deathmatch’ began, the tide of the fight completely turned in Jung Minwoo’s favor.
Andromalius was gripping the iron bars installed on the outer edge, gasping for breath.
“Huff, huff, huff!”
The battle, which he thought would end quickly, had lasted for 12 hours, pushing him to his limit.
If he, a Demon Lord, was this exhausted, a 1st Rank demon should have collapsed long ago. But……
“What, is it over already? It’s too boring if it ends like this.”
Jung Minwoo, as if he wasn’t tired at all, was standing there with the same, no, even more vigor than before.
‘……Why isn’t that guy getting tired?’
Furthermore, not only was he full of vigor, but his strength had also increased accordingly.
‘……Is that guy a monster? How can he get even stronger here?’
He wasn’t sure, but judging by the energy he was feeling now, it seemed impossible to win even if he attacked with all his might.
T h i s wa s c o p i e d f ro m k i n g m t l . o r g
‘Why was he hiding this kind of power?’
If he had been observant, he would have noticed that Jung Minwoo’s strength increased as the battle continued. But……
‘That monstrous guy……’
Because his mind was pushed to its limit, he hadn’t noticed that fact.
‘……Am I going to lose like this?’
As he realized that he couldn’t defeat that monster-like guy, the fear of ‘death’, which he thought was irrelevant to him, came over him.
The fact that he had to give everything to Jung Minwoo and face death made his stomach churn.
‘I can’t die so pointlessly……!’
The situation was already as good as certain that he would die.
‘If I have to die anyway, I won’t die without a fight!’
Andromalius pondered how he could inflict significant damage on Jung Minwoo.
‘……Right, there was that method.’
And he was able to come up with one method.
‘It hurts my pride…… but it’s enough to cause damage.’
T h i s wa s c o p ie d f ro m ki n gm tl.o rg
That method was to use the taboo of the Demon World.
‘……If I use the taboo, I might even be able to kill him, not just injure him.’
Andromalius, having made up his mind, took a deep breath and carefully opened his mouth.
“I, the 72nd ranked Demon Lord Andromalius, acknowledge the evil deeds I have committed and repent for my sins.”
As you can see from his words, the taboo of the Demon World was……
“If Cheonsin hears my plea, have mercy on me and grant me a chance to repent!”
It was to acknowledge one’s wickedness and repent.
If the taboo of the Celestial Realm was to fall and become a ‘Fallen Angel’, then conversely, the taboo of the Demon World was to repent and become a ‘Repentant Demon’.
Fwooosh―
As if Cheonsin had heard his plea, the dark clouds parted and a light shone down on Andromalius.
“Ah, ah……!”
Andromalius, bathed in the light, trembled uncontrollably, then……
Flash―
He began to be enveloped in a bright light.
“……Sigh, I knew he was a crazy guy, but I didn’t know he would abandon even his demonic pride.”
Satan, who had been observing the situation from his throne, sighed deeply as he rubbed his forehead.
“Then, shall we execute the Repentant Demon immediately, according to the rules?”
As Satan scratched his head and was about to get up from his seat……
“Demon Lord-nim? If it’s alright with you, can I handle it?”
Jung Minwoo, enveloped in demonic energy, made a suggestion.
‘……Demonic energy?’
T his w a s cop i e d f r o m k i n g m tl . or g
Satan momentarily looked at Jung Minwoo, puzzled by the deep, dense demonic energy surrounding him.
‘Ah! It’s Andromalius’s demonic energy.’
He realized that as Andromalius abandoned his pride, his demonic energy was being transferred to Jung Minwoo.
‘And I can sense other demonic energies, so he must have been promoted to Demon Lord.’
He also understood that Jung Minwoo was naturally promoted to the position of the 72nd Demon Lord and was being granted demonic energy.
‘Well, it should be fine to leave it to him, right?’
Jung Minwoo, as he was now, would be able to kill Andromalius without any problems.
‘It’s better for Minwoo to kill him than for me to do it.’
And by killing Andromalius, he would receive demonic energy as an achievement, further increasing his strength.
‘As for me, even if I kill Andromalius, I’ll only gain a speck of demonic energy.’
Having finished his thoughts, Satan said……
“Alright, you can execute him.”
He granted Jung Minwoo the authority to execute.
After the conversation with Satan……
‘You’re truly a tree that gives without reservation!’
Jung Minwoo was deeply moved by Andromalius’s actions, who seemed desperate to give him everything.
You might be wondering what Andromalius gave him……
【’Andromalius’ is deemed unable to fulfill the contract. All of ‘Andromalius’s’ demonic energy will be transferred to Jung Minwoo.】
【……Deemed…… All of ‘Andromalius’s’ subordinates will be transferred to Jung Minwoo.】
【……Deemed…… All of ‘Andromalius’s’ Demon Lord Castle and territory will be transferred to Jung Minwoo.】
If you look at the brilliant message windows that appeared before him, you would understand.
‘Kuh, so sweet, so sweet.’
What pleased Jung Minwoo the most was……
【A vacancy has arisen in the position of the 72nd Demon Lord. The position will be delegated to ‘Jung Minwoo’, who was a strong candidate.】
That he had become the 72nd Demon Lord, which he had so longed for.
‘It’s a power that makes me feel like I can do anything……’
As a tremendous amount of demonic energy surged towards him all at once, a pleasure that transcended simple satisfaction took over his entire body.
‘It’s unbelievable that Andromalius was manipulated by me even with this kind of power.’
As Jung Minwoo clicked his tongue at Andromalius’s stupidity and focused on receiving the demonic energy……
【Unique traits will be strengthened upon promotion to the 72nd Demon Lord.】
A new message window popped up.
‘How will it be strengthened?’
As he anticipated how his unique traits would be strengthened……
【Strengthening demon unique traits……】
【Strengthening human unique traits……】
An ominous message window appeared before him.
‘This, don’t tell me……’
【Human soul in a demon’s body. Error detected.】
‘Damn it, it never fails to meet my expectations.’
The same situation as during the graduation ceremony.
【Error, error, error, error, error, error, error, error, error, error, error, error, error, error, error, error, error, error, error.】
Following that, the word ‘error’ filled his vision, and……
‘Kuhhhh!’
Excruciating pain washed over him.
‘I can’t lose consciousness here……!’
T h i s w as co pi ed f ro m ki ng mt l. o r g
If he lost consciousness in a situation where he had to fight Andromalius, his life would be in danger.
It was fortunate that Andromalius was also enveloped in light; otherwise, he would have been ambushed and suffered great damage.
【Error successfully corrected.】
Then, along with the notification that the error had been corrected……
【Demon ― Demon Eye(魔眼)】
― Can see through the target’s desires by concentrating.
― Can see the total amount of demonic energy possessed by a living or non-living entity by concentrating.
― Can inflict debuffs on the target by consuming demonic energy.

However, only demons with whom a bond has been formed can have their unique traits copied.

【Jung Minwoo ― Brain Eye(腦黫)】

― Thought processing speed varies depending on the amount of demonic energy injected.
― Can move freely while thought processing speed is increased.
Information about the unique traits he had acquired so far appeared one after another.
‘Except for Mind’s Eye, everything else has been strengthened.’
He could see that sentences had been changed or new content had been added.
‘……This is crazy.’
As Jung Minwoo closed the message window with a satisfied smile……
T his w as c o p i ed f r o m kin g mtl. o r g
Fwoosh.
The demonic energy that had been swirling around him also dissipated.
‘With this power, I could kill Andromalius in one shot, right?’
As Jung Minwoo clenched his fist and turned his gaze towards Andromalius……
Fwoosh―
Just then, the light surrounding Andromalius also dissipated, revealing his form.
‘He really became a dove?’
His black hair had turned white, and his plain features had become gentle.
Also, the black wings on his back had transformed into pure white.
“I feel like I’ve been reborn.”
Andromalius had a dazed expression, then……
“Jung Minwoo, I will kill you!”
He emitted a divine power even stronger than the demonic energy he possessed before.
‘They say that abandoning your race makes you stronger, and it seems that was true.’
If he had fought as a 1st Rank demon, he wouldn’t have been able to avoid defeat, but……
‘Cute.’
Thi s wa s co p i e d f ro m k i n g mt l. o r g
Now that he was a Demon Lord, he was no match for him.
“Andromalius, how does it feel to betray your mission and repent?”
Jung Minwoo asked mockingly how he felt.
“It feels so good that I regret not repenting sooner.”
Andromalius replied with a deep smile.
“Really? So you feel like serving?”
“I don’t know about that……”
Andromalius trailed off at the following question, then……
“But one thing’s for sure, I want to kill you!!!”
Flutter―
He shouted loudly and flew towards him.
“We’re on the same page! I was thinking about killing you too.”
Jung Minwoo chuckled at Andromalius’s words, agreeing with him.
“Die!!!”
Then, as Andromalius got within striking distance……
“Shall I try out my strengthened unique traits?”
Jung Minwoo immediately used ‘Brain Eye’.
Th i s w a s c opi ed f r o m k i n gmt l . o r g
Thump―
T h i s wa s c o p ie d f r o m k i n g mt l . o r g
Then, along with a feeling of his head clearing up, the world began to slow down.
Up to this point, it wasn’t much different from the previous ‘Brain Eye’, but……
“Let’s show some strength, shall we?”
Unlike before, there was a difference in that he could move his body freely.
T h i s w a s cop i ed f r o m ki ngm tl . o r g
Swish―
Jung Minwoo raised his right hand, then……
Whoosh―
He concentrated demonic energy in his raised hand.
“Die.”
And with all his might, he struck Andromalius in the abdomen. At the same time……
‘Let’s see his reaction.’
He released Brain Eye.
Boooom!
As time flowed normally, a part of Andromalius’s body exploded.
“Oh, the effect is pretty good.”
“Gah?!”
Andromalius opened and closed his mouth with a shocked expression, but……
“Farewell.”
Boooom!
Following that, he struck his face, and the rest of his face exploded.
And so, Andromalius, who was the 72nd Demon Lord, met his death at the hands of Jung Minwoo at the same time as he repented.
“I’ll put the things you gave me to good use.”
As Jung Minwoo released the unique trait he was using with a refreshed expression……
【You have killed a Repentant Demon.】
【You have achieved the feat of killing a Repentant Demon with power comparable to a 1st Rank Angel.】
【A large amount of demonic energy will be given as a reward.】
A message window popped up before him.
