The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 207

Chapter 207: Ranger Training (1)

A bright morning.

Murmur, murmur, murmur―

All the demons belonging to the Demon Lord’s Castle were gathered in the training ground within the castle.

“Why did the Demon Lord-nim summon us?”

“……I wonder. Is there something he doesn’t like?”

“His gaze towards us wasn’t good. Don’t tell me he’s planning to fire us, right?”

“Hey, don’t say such ominous things.”

“I hope it’s nothing serious……”

The demons gathered in the training ground felt puzzled by Jung Minwoo’s summons and were waiting when.

“I didn’t know you were all bugs who can’t even align yourselves properly.”

Thud, thud, thud.

Jung Minwoo walked up to the podium set up in the training ground.

“””……Huh?”””
T h i s w as co p i e d fr o m ki n gm tl .o rg

Normally, the demons would have bowed their heads and greeted him, but.

“””His attire……?”””

Due to his unusual attire, they stared blankly and missed the timing to greet him.

A red T-shirt, green pants, and a red cap pulled down low.

It was an exotic outfit they had never seen before in the Demon World, but for some reason, it felt out of place.

Thud, thud, thud.

Following behind, the Jungsin Cult members, wearing the same attire, stood under the podium and.

Snap, snap―

Simultaneously clasped their hands behind their backs.

“””Wow……”””

Th i s w a s c o p ie d f ro m k i ng m tl . o r g
It was just clasping their hands behind their backs, but the demons couldn’t help but let out a slight gasp of admiration at their disciplined appearance.

“Tsk, have you forgotten how to even greet me now? Pathetic.”

“””Ah, uh! Greetings to the Demon Lord-ni……!”””

At Jung Minwoo’s words, the demons belatedly tried to greet him, but.

“Forget it, I have no interest in receiving greetings from trash that can’t even align themselves.”

He cut them off, refusing their greeting.

T h i s wa s c o p i e d f r o m k in g m t l . o r g
Gulp―

Feeling the implicit murderous intent emanating from Jung Minwoo, the demons gulped nervously.

Just as silence enveloped them.

“From today onwards, for 200 days based on ‘Dainik’ time, you will be trained by us as trainees.”

Jung Minwoo opened his mouth and explained the reason for the gathering.

“Training?”

“What kind of training?”

“Do you happen to know what kind of training it is?”

At the word “training,” the demons began to murmur again as if they had never been nervous.

“Sigh……”

Seeing that, Jung Minwoo let out a soft sigh and then.

“Silence!!!”

Fwhooooooooooooosh―

He shouted at the demons and released his demonic energy at the same time.

“Gah?!”

“Ugh!”

“Gasp!”

“Cough!”

Thud―

Overwhelmed by the powerful demonic energy, the demons collapsed to the floor, groaning in pain.

“From now on, trainees are prohibited from talking except during break time. If you fail to follow my words, you will receive separate remedial training, so keep that in mind.”

Remedial training.

They didn’t know what kind of training it would be, but the demons could guess that it would involve a tremendous ordeal.

“How long are you going to stay collapsed on the floor? Get up in 5 seconds. Execute.”

“””E, Execute……!”””

For some reason, the demons repeated Jung Minwoo’s last word and quickly got up from their positions.

“For your information, the training we will be conducting this time is necessary for ambushing enemies from a hidden position or outside the front lines.”

Having heard the definition of the training, or rather, ‘Ranger’ training, the demons wondered why they were doing this kind of training, but.

Nod―

They nodded silently, as if asking why would only get them scolded.

“For the next 200 days, you will end your sentences with ‘da’ or ‘kka’. Understand?”

“””Ah, Understood.”””

“Your voices are too low! Did you understand?”

“””Understood!!!”””

“For your information, when responding, use ‘ak’ consistently. Understand?”

“””Ak!!”””

“You’re finally looking a bit more presentable.”

Jung Minwoo nodded, looking at the demons, and then.

“Before we begin the training, I will take questions.”

He said he would take questions about anything they were curious about.

“Q, Question!”

One demon cautiously raised his hand, glancing around.

“Go ahead.”

“H, How about if we refuse the training?”

“Good question.”

Thump―

Jung Minwoo stepped off the podium and approached the demon, no, the trainee who had asked the question.

Grab―

He grabbed the trainee by the collar and shouted.

“If you refuse the training, you will be expelled from the Demon Lord’s Castle! Why, do you not want to train?”

“N, No!!!”

“I clearly said to respond with ‘ak’ consistently, didn’t I? Are my words funny to you?”

“Ah, Ak!!”

“Are you saying my words are funny? You’ve got some nerve.”

“No!”

“Didn’t you hear me just now? I said to respond with ‘ak’ consistently. Should I take your actions as a challenge to me?”

“Ah, Ak!”

“Ha, it’s absurd that you would challenge me so boldly.”

“……”

The demon, caught in a situation where any answer led to the same question, broke out in a cold sweat and shut his mouth.

“No answer?”

“Ak!!!”

“Seeing your attitude of trying to refuse training and your inability to follow even a single order, it seems you’re the most undisciplined one here. I will have you managed as a special case.”

“Ak!!!”

The trainee answered with a gloomy face and veins bulging in his neck.

“Consider yourself lucky that I’m stopping here.”

Drop―

Jung Minwoo let go of his collar and climbed back onto the podium.

“For your information, you will also be expelled if you give up during the training, so keep that in mind.”

He added an explanation about expulsion.

“Instructors? Bring the training uniforms.”

“””Ak!”””

The Jungsin Cult members marched in unison behind the podium and then.

Snap, snap, snap―

Returned to the front of the podium, carrying boxes.

“Find the training uniform that fits you and put it on. Complete it within 1 minute. Execute.”

T hi s wa s c o pie d f r o m k i ng m t l . or g
“””Ak!!!”””

The trainees rushed towards the boxes placed in front of the podium and hastily found training uniforms that fit them and changed. They also put on their military boots and were about to return to their original positions when.

“Why are you so slow? 1 minute has already passed! All of you, get down and give me push-ups!!!”

Jung Minwoo’s thunderous roar ordered them to do push-ups.

“””Ak!”””

As the trainees responded energetically and got down for push-ups.

Rumble―!

“””Ugh……!”””

Demonic energy began to press down on their entire bodies.

Tremble, tremble, tremble.

Due to the crushing demonic energy, the trainees’ arms trembled like aspen leaves.

Just as they felt like they would collapse to the floor and were about to use their demonic energy.

“Keep in mind that if you use demonic energy, you will receive additional push-ups.”

“””Ah, Ak!”””

Jung Minwoo, who had noticed their intention as if he had eyes in the back of his head, issued a warning.

“On one, bend your arms and say ‘I am’, on two, straighten your arms and say ‘a slowpoke’.”

He continued to give instructions and then.

“One.”

Immediately gave the order.

“””……I am!”””

As the trainees bent their trembling arms.

“Your voices are too low.”

Jung Minwoo didn’t give the next order and simply watched with his arms crossed.

“””……Ugh!!!”””

The trainees, unable to hear the next order, raised their heads to look at Jung Minwoo and saw.

Smirk―

Him looking at them with a wicked smile.

Seeing that smile, the trainees.

‘He’s enjoying this……!’

‘He’s doing this on purpose to torment us!’

‘A demon…… A true demon has appeared.’

T hi s w a s c op i e d f ro m k i n g mt l. o r g
‘He’s enjoying watching us suffer……’

They felt a chill run down their spines at Jung Minwoo’s wickedness.

However, as the saying goes, rank is power, the trainees had no choice but to follow Jung Minwoo’s words.

“””……Groan!!!”””

Lost in their thoughts, the trainees felt their physical limits and were about to collapse to the floor when.

“Two.”

As if he had noticed it again, he immediately shouted the next order.

“””……a slowpoke!!!”””

The trainees straightened their arms and shouted with all their might.

“Your voices are finally bearable. Still, late is late, so let’s just repeat it 10 more times and finish.”

At the sound of adding 10 more repetitions, all sorts of negative thoughts came to mind, but.

“One!”

The following order forced them to shake off their thoughts.

As the trainees continued their push-ups according to the orders.

‘Damn it, you only appreciate spring after the flowers have withered……!’

‘I already miss the old days!’

‘Those days when we laughed while enjoying high-quality snacks and coffee in the lounge were good……’

‘……I miss the times when he would raise our DP just for flattering him.’

‘If only he hadn’t lost the Challenge for the Throne, we wouldn’t have to do these push-ups……!’

They missed Andromalius, who was famous for his incompetence.

T h i s wa s co pi e d f r o m k i ng m tl . or g
Meanwhile, Jung Minwoo, who was reading their thoughts through ‘Mind’s Eye’.

‘Their minds are truly rotten, huh?’

He clicked his tongue at the trainees’ thoughts.

‘They don’t even know who I’m doing this for. They’re harboring disrespectful thoughts.’

The fact that they could have such rotten thoughts also meant that they were still manageable, so he decided to train them one step harder than planned.

‘By the end of this training, I’ll make sure they won’t have such lax thoughts anymore.’

Perhaps, after 200 days, they would be reborn as true soldiers, no, ‘true’ demons.

After completing all 10 repetitions, Jung Minwoo took the trainees to the ‘Dainik’ planet.

As they arrived at the ‘Dainik’ planet through the portal.

‘It’s well-prepared.’
T h i s was c o pie d f ro m k i n g m t l . o r g

He could see that the training ground was well-prepared as requested.

‘Elvis is really reliable when it comes to handling tasks.’

Jung Minwoo felt satisfied and climbed onto the podium prepared at the Ranger training ground.

“Form up in columns of five.”

He ordered them to gather in front of the podium.

“””Ak!”””

Perhaps thanks to the effect of the push-ups, the trainees moved swiftly and gathered in front of the podium.

“In the morning, we will have PT gymnastics.”

At the mention of PT gymnastics, the trainees looked puzzled.

“Ah, to explain the abbreviation of PT gymnastics, it means Bloody (P) Tiring (T) gymnastics. Understood?”

Hearing the abbreviation of PT gymnastics, the trainees’ expressions stiffened in real-time, but.

“””Ak!”””

Knowing that they would be punished with push-ups if they didn’t respond, they answered energetically.

“From now on, there will be a demonstration by a skilled instructor, so pay attention and familiarize yourselves with it.”

“””Ak!”””

Snap, snap, snap―

The Jungsin Cult members came up to the podium and.

“Prepare for jump number 1.”

“””Ranger!”””

They took the position for jump number 1 in sync with Jung Minwoo’s words.

“Execute 2 consecutive movements.”

Beep beep beep!

Snap, snap, snap―

Beep beep beep beep beep!

Snap, snap, snap―

And they began to demonstrate in sync with the whistle.

“We will continue all the way to number 14.”

Afterward, they demonstrated from jump number 1 to 14 and finished all the movements.

“Now, did you all see that? You just need to follow my commands and do PT gymnastics.”

Perhaps because the movements seemed simple.

“””Ak!”””

The trainees’ faces were filled with complacency.

‘Oh? You think it’s easy, huh?’

T h i s wa s c op ie d f ro m k i n gm t l . o rg
He himself had thought the same as the trainees before experiencing PT gymnastics.

The movements are too simple, aren’t they? Is this really the gymnastics that’s called the flower of Ranger training? He had thought.

However, the true horror of PT gymnastics.

‘Lies in repetition.’

T hi s was c o pi ed f ro m ki n g mt l .o r g
It came from the endless repetition that seemed like it would end but never did.

T h i s w as co p i ed f ro m ki ngm t l. o r g
‘And that damn last phrase omission.’

Also, the fear of shouting the phrase despite the last phrase being omitted played a part.

‘You’ll be shedding tears of blood after underestimating it.’

Jung Minwoo looked at the trainees and smiled wickedly.

‘I’ll show you what true hell is from now on!’

He immediately began the PT gymnastics.
