The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 206

Chapter 206: Reorganization (2)

Meanwhile, Dantalion was……

‘I hope he likes the gifts I sent……’

……waiting anxiously for Jung Minwoo’s contact.

T h is wa s c o p i ed f r o m k i n gm tl .o r g
‘He’ll definitely be satisfied since I sent him what I saw in the future.’

During the Challenge for the Throne, when he unexpectedly saw his own future.

‘After the Challenge for the Throne was completely over, I separately looked into Jung Minwoo’s future.’

Dantalion had used his unique trait to build a smooth relationship with Jung Minwoo.

‘Maybe it was because his potential was so great, but even after using an entire book, I could only see fragments of the future……’

T h is w a s c o pi e d f r o m k i n gm t l . o r g
Thanks to that, however, he was able to choose the gift that Jung Minwoo needed the most.

‘He was using shadows freely on the battlefield. And he was wearing a Demonic Energy Storage Bracelet on his left wrist.’

As luck would have it, there was an ‘Equipment Enhancement Artifact’ and a ‘Demonic Energy Storage Bracelet’ in the vault, so he was able to send the gifts right away without having to look for them separately.

One might wonder how he knew to pack the ‘Equipment Enhancement Artifact,’ but……

……he knew that shadows were used through a ring, so he could easily guess that the equipment had been enhanced.

As for the Infinite Diary, he chose that as an extra because he felt it was a shame to only send two gifts.

‘I know he’ll be satisfied, but I can’t help but be nervous.’

If Jung Minwoo liked the gifts and contacted him, he would be able to aim for a cooperative relationship beyond just a friendly one.

‘Considering the path Jung Minwoo has taken so far, he’s not someone who can be swayed by emotions.’

Considering his personality, he would have to prove how useful he was to form a cooperative relationship.

‘It’s ironic that I, who was so confident in front of other Demon Lords, am groveling before someone who just became a Demon Lord……’

Even if he had lived a long life, even Dantalion couldn’t escape the primal fear of death.

‘Aside from that, if it’s like what I saw in the future, I’m looking forward to what he’ll do next.’

Dantalion closed his eyes gently and recalled the memories he had seen in the future.

A battlefield overflowing with the bloodstains of angels and demons.

It was a picture of demons losing ground, but the appearance of a single man reversed the tide.

T h i s w a s c o pi e d fr o m k in g m t l. o r g
That man was Jung Minwoo, who began to slaughter the angels single-handedly.

He wanted to recall more of his future memories, but……

‘Sigh……It’s a shame that this is all there is.’

That was all the future his unique trait had shown him.

He wanted to get a better book and use it, but……
T hi s w a s c o p i e d fr om k i n g m t l . o r g

‘I should have used a top-quality book if I had known this would happen.’

He couldn’t see the future that his unique trait had shown him again, so he couldn’t know what happened after that.

In other words, even if he used his unique trait, he could only see the future at a different time.

‘Still, I should be satisfied with the important information I gained.’

Although he only saw a fleeting glimpse of the future, he was able to learn two facts from it.

First, Jung Minwoo had risen to a high position.

He didn’t know exactly how high he had climbed, but he guessed that he must be within the top three if he could easily slaughter angels single-handedly.

Second, the Celestial-Demonic War would break out someday.

That meant that the ‘peace treaty,’ which had been maintained for a long time, had been broken.

‘I only saw a glimpse, but it’s enough to tell me which direction I need to go.’

Form a cooperative relationship with Jung Minwoo and prepare for the Celestial-Demonic War.

It was a simple and clear direction, but it wasn’t as easy as it sounded.

That was why he needed to develop his relationship with Jung Minwoo a lot through this opportunity.

‘He must have finished looking around the inside by now. I wonder if he’s checking the gifts?’

Just as he was thinking that he would be contacted soon……

Knock, knock—
T h i s w as c o pie d f r o m ki ng mt l. o r g

“Demon Lord-nim? May I come in?”

A demon knocked on the office door.

“Come in.”

When he allowed the demon to enter……

Creak—

“Excuse me.”

……the demon bowed and greeted him.

“What brings you here?”

“The 72nd ranked Demon Lord has requested a meeting.”

“Oh……”

Dantalion’s eyes lit up at the long-awaited contact.

“It seems he liked the gifts……When did he propose to meet?”

“He didn’t specify a time. He said he would meet whenever it was convenient for you, Demon Lord-nim.”

“Hmm……Is that so?”

Dantalion pondered when it would be good to meet.

‘I want to meet him right now, but I have to hold back.’

He thought it would be better not to meet for the time being, as he needed time to reorganize the Demon Lord’s Castle.

‘And I had a separate appointment with the Demon Lord.’

Considering all that, he decided it would be good to meet in two months.

“Tell him I’ll meet him in two months.”

“Yes, I’ll let him know.”

“And tell him that if he has any trouble meeting on that day, we can always reschedule.”

“Understood.”

“You may go.”

Click—

After the demon closed the door and left……

‘It’s going to be a long two months.’

……Dantalion began to think about how he could form a cooperative relationship with Jung Minwoo when they met.

That night.

Jung Minwoo and the Demon Communion members were gathered in the Demon Lord’s Office.

T hi s w as c o pi ed f r o m k i ng m t l. o r g
“Now that everyone’s here, shall we start the meeting?”

The topic of the meeting was, of course, the prosperity of the Demon Lord’s Castle.

“For the first agenda item, I’m thinking of starting with reforming the mental state of the demons belonging to the Demon Lord’s Castle. What do you think?”

The Demon Communion members nodded their heads in agreement at Jung Minwoo’s question.

“The previous Demon Lord was so incompetent that the demons under him don’t seem to be in good shape.”

“They’re in pretty bad shape.”

As he brought up the agenda item, Venus actively agreed and spoke up.

“The demons’ Ranks are way too low. It’s such a waste to have to provide DP to those guys.”

As she said, they had to provide a set amount of DP every month because they were affiliated with the Demon Lord’s Castle.

“It’s a problem that their level is low, but I think the biggest problem is that they’re useless.”

The demons belonging to the Demon Lord’s Castle could be roughly divided into three categories: guarding, administration, and invasion.

Guarding could be done by high-ranking residents.

Administration didn’t require much, and they didn’t need many personnel yet.

And for invasion, they were already continuing their invasion with Higher Beings, so they didn’t need any support.

In other words, as Venus said, they were truly useless.

“We have to solve that problem, too.”

Jung Minwoo nodded, agreeing with the problem Venus had pointed out.

“But even if we find a use for them, things won’t work properly if they’re out of their minds. So let’s first discuss how we’re going to reform their minds.”

“Alright.”

“Everyone, if you have any good ideas, let me know.”

And so, as they began the mental reform project meeting……

“This is a no-brainer.”

……Anubis spoke up with a confident expression.

“Do you have a good idea?”

“Just train them the way we did with the monsters.”

“Ah……!”

And at Anubis’s words, Jung Minwoo realized that he had been thinking about this problem too hard.

‘Right, there’s nothing like the military for mental reform……’

Since it was a method that had been proven with monsters, he thought it would work well on demons, too.

‘Demons are no different.’

Th i s w a s c op ie d fr o m k i n g m t l . o r g
He had made the big mistake of thinking that they needed a special method because they were immortals.

‘They’re all the same once they’re trained.’

Having gained a deep realization from Anubis’s words, Jung Minwoo……

‘How should I train them so that they’ll be known as well-trained?’

……thought about how to train them, or rather, how to make them come to their senses.

‘As expected, there’s nothing like ranger training for mental reform.’

Surprisingly, his contemplation ended in five seconds.

‘They won’t be able to come to their senses with just a few days, so 200 days should be enough.’

Ten days in the Demon World’s time axis was 200 days in Dainik’s time axis, so it wouldn’t take up much time.

‘Hehehe, it’s time for the goblin instructor who catches ghosts to step up.’

Before, he had proceeded by delegating to the monsters, but……

‘Since they’re affiliated with the Demon Lord’s Castle, I’ll have to do it myself.’

……he felt a sense of responsibility and decided to train them himself.

‘Hehehe, I’ll show them what true hell is.’

He was confident in training them since he had experienced it himself in his previous life.

‘Mental reform doesn’t sound very nice, so I need to change the name of the project, too.’

It would be called the Rehabilitation Project.

When he conveyed this idea to the Demon Communion members……

“If that’s how it’s going to be, they’ll definitely come to their senses.”

“Ooh, that sounds fun.”

“……I don’t have a hobby of tormenting others, but it seems like a good project.”

“Hehehe, I can legally relieve the stress I got from Minwoo. Ribbit, ribbit.”

……the Demon Communion members gave him a thumbs up, saying it seemed like a good idea.

‘It’s going to be tight to prepare for it, considering that we’re going to do it in a week.’

Jung Minwoo decided to place an order for custom-made red hats and red t-shirts, the essence of ranger training, after the meeting was over, and moved on to the next agenda item.

The next agenda item was the establishment of an academy.

“Looking at the financial situation, it seems like it’ll be difficult to do it alone. How about getting investments from other Demon Lords?”

“If we get investments, we’ll be able to build stronger relationships with them through that opportunity, so I think it’ll be good.”

They concluded that they would seek investors and then work out the details after, since they couldn’t just establish an academy right away just because they wanted to.

‘I should bring it up separately when Satan throws a party.’

The Demon Lord would surely react positively to the idea of an academy.

“Now, shall we deal with the last agenda item and wrap up the meeting?”

T h i s w a s c o p i e d fr o m king m t l . or g
They moved on to the next agenda item, which was to increase the number of DP sources.

“I’ve been thinking about it since I heard about it in the carriage, but I can’t think of any new sources.”

“Me neither.”

“……Me neither.”

“I agree……Ribbit, ribbit.”

The meeting had begun, but the Demon Communion members couldn’t come up with any good ideas.

“That’s a shame.”

And it was the same for Jung Minwoo.

‘……I need to solve this quickly.’

Considering the time it would take to create a source and put it into practice, he had to find a way quickly.

T h i s wa s c op i ed f ro m k i n g m t l . o r g
As the time he spent contemplating grew longer……

‘Maybe I can get some good ideas if I look at the shop window?’
T h is wa s c o pied f r o m k i n g m t l . o r g

……he thought he might be able to get at least one idea from the shop window, which was full of various items.

The ‘VIP’ card that Satan had given him before had disappeared after he used all ten of its uses, but……

‘Now I can use it without a card.’

He had become a Demon Lord and could use it as much as he wanted.

‘It’ll take a long time to check the entire shop window, so I’ll have to look at it separately.’

He decided to check the shop window after the Rehabilitation Project was over.

“I don’t think we’ll come up with anything right now, so if you think of any good ideas about DP sources later, let me know anytime.”

The Demon Communion members nodded at Jung Minwoo’s words.

“Then let’s end the meeting here. Let’s start preparing for the Rehabilitation Project tomorrow.”

“Got it.”

“Let’s get it over with quickly.”

“……Okay.”

“Ribbit, ribbit!”

Afterwards, Jung Minwoo and the Demon Communion members diligently prepared for a week.

A week later.

After all the preparations were done, the Rehabilitation Project began.
