The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 220

Chapter 220: A Grand Party (3)

“Originally, we would have enjoyed food and drinks while dancing…… but since there are so few of us, how about we eat and drink first, and then have a separate time for dancing?”

“That sounds like a good idea.”

I nodded and answered Satan’s suggestion.

“Good, then let’s all move to our seats.”

We all moved our steps to where the tables and chairs were prepared.

And at the place we arrived, a luxurious-looking round table was placed.

“Sit wherever you’re comfortable.”

Thud—

First, Satan sat down on a chair.

“It’s exciting to be sitting together and having a meal like this.”

Following him, Lilith sat down to Satan’s right.

‘I guess I should sit opposite Satan.’

Considering that I’d be having a conversation with Satan, it seemed like facing him would be good.

“It feels new to be having a meal together like this.”

The moment I sat down opposite Satan.

Whoosh—

Three figures approached the place where I was sitting at high speed.

‘Hmm?’

And one of the figures, Elin, sat down next to me.

Grab—

The remaining two figures, Venus and Sayori, both grabbed the same chair at the same time, engaging in a staring contest.

“Sayori-nim, could you please move? I grabbed the chair first.”

“What are you talking about? I grabbed it first. Are you trying to throw a tantrum right now?”

The two exchanged glares and soon began to argue.

“……A tantrum? Are you done talking now?”

“No, I’m not done talking yet. Don’t make a scene for a good seat and just let go.”

“Ha, don’t you think the reason for making a scene lies with you?”

T h i s was c o p i e d fr o m k in g m t l. o r g
“What did you say?”

As the number of exchanges increased, the killing intent of the two became stronger.

“Maybe it’s because they’re young? They’re both full of energy.”

“You’re right. They’re at a good age.”

Satan and Lilith didn’t seem to have any intention of stopping them, just looking at them as if they were in their prime.

“……Phew.”

Elin just let out a sigh of relief while watching them, seemingly having no intention of intervening.

‘Do I…… have to solve this?’

Judging from the situation, it seemed like it would continue unless I intervened.

‘……What should I do?’

I wanted to have Rok sit next to me, but he wasn’t here because he had gone to change his clothes a while ago.

‘Then should I have Anubis sit next to me?’

I tried to have Anubis sit next to me as a second option, but.

‘……No, I don’t think that’s a good idea.’

Jung Minwoo shook his head and withdrew the thought.

It was better not to create unnecessary trouble, as it could cause another fight if I had her sit next to me.

‘Moving seats isn’t a good idea either.’

No matter where I went, there would be an empty seat, so it wouldn’t be a solution.

Th i s w a s c o p i e d f ro m ki n g mt l. o rg
‘Think, Jung Minwoo……!’

Jung Minwoo racked his brains and searched the room.

‘Yes, this is it……!’

He came up with a relatively fair solution and opened his mouth.

“I don’t think this will be resolved like this, so how about we decide with rock-paper-scissors?”

It was rock-paper-scissors.
Th i s was c o p i e d fro m ki n g m tl . o r g

I thought this would be a fair way to decide.

“……Rock-paper-scissors?”

“What’s that?”

Venus and Sayori tilted their heads, as if they didn’t know what rock-paper-scissors was.

‘Since it’s something we did on Earth, it’s understandable that they don’t know it in the Demon World.’

When Jung Minwoo briefly explained rock-paper-scissors to them.

“Certainly, it’s the fairest method right now.”

“With this method, we can clearly determine the owner of the seat.”

The two answered that they understood and looked at each other.

“Let’s decide in one round.”

“Clean and nice.”

Gooooooooooo—

It was just rock-paper-scissors, but the tension was at its peak, as if they were making a life-or-death decision.

T h is wa s co p i ed fr o m k i n g m t l . o r g
“””……”””

When silence fell upon the banquet hall.

“”Rock-paper-scissors!””

The competition to determine the owner of the seat began.

Slap—!

Slap—!

And the competition was quickly settled in just a few seconds.

The winner of the competition was……

“I won. Would you please let go of that hand?”

It was Venus, who had shown ‘paper’ in rock-paper-scissors.

“……”

Sayori, who had shown ‘rock’, bit her lower lip and let go of the chair she had been gripping tightly, stepping back.

“Hehe, thank you.”

Venus smiled victoriously and sat down next to Jung Minwoo with confidence.
T h i s wa s co pi e d fr o m k in gm t l . o r g

‘……I don’t know what it is, but I’m glad it ended well.’

Although the picture looked a bit strange, Jung Minwoo was satisfied that it had ended without turning into a fight.

Screech—

For reference, Sayori moved to sit next to Satan.

Afterward, Rok also came back after changing his clothes, and everyone was seated at the round table.

Clap, clap—

“Now that everyone is seated, shall we eat and drink?”

As Satan clapped his hands.

“We will serve the food and drinks.”

The demons began to carry the food and drinks.

“Whoa……”

Seeing the luxurious food and drinks placed on the table, admiration naturally flowed out.

The same food and drinks as at my birthday.

It was a part where I could see how much effort Satan had put into this party.

“Now that the food is all served, shall we begin the meal?”
T h i s w as c o p i e d fr o m k in gm t l . o r g

The meal began in earnest with Satan’s words.

I was worried that the atmosphere might be bad because of Sayori’s loss in rock-paper-scissors, but.

“Puhahaha, you know the other Demon Lords are being careful of Minwoo now that he’s become a Demon Lord?”

“Really?”

“Haha, I never knew they’d be so cautious.”

Satan and Lilith didn’t seem to care about such things at all, and the meal proceeded in a surprisingly good atmosphere.

When the atmosphere was getting lively.

“I think we’ve had enough to eat. Shall we dance now?”

Satan smiled and stood up from his seat.

“Lilith, shall we dance for the first time in a while?”

“Okay.”

Lilith blushed and stood up from her seat, taking Satan’s outstretched hand.

Thud, thud, thud—

Click, click, click—

As Satan and Lilith stepped onto the prepared stage.

Dun dandan Dun dandan Dun dandan~

Music began to play in the banquet hall.

Ta, ta, tarat—

The two moved their bodies to the music.

Tarattattat—

They showed off quite elegant and sharp dance moves.

‘They’re amazing……’

As Jung Minwoo was watching them in admiration.

Click—

T h is wa s co p i e d f r om kin gm t l. or g
“Minwoo-nim, would you like to dance with me?”

Sayori held out her hand and offered to dance.

‘Is this going to be another argument?’

Jung Minwoo expected them to have a big argument because of the dance, but.

‘……Why is nothing happening?’

Contrary to his expectations, nothing happened.

When Jung Minwoo turned his head in wonder.

“”……””

He could see Venus and Elin looking down at his hand, which was showing scissors, with disappointed eyes.

‘They decided with rock-paper-scissors already……’

Thinking that it would be okay to accept Sayori’s offer, he took her outstretched hand and stood up from his seat.

“Okay, shall we go dance?”

As if she didn’t expect him to accept so readily, Sayori flinched and then.

“Yes!”

She nodded vigorously and led him to the stage.

Slide—

Jung Minwoo wrapped his left hand around her waist and held her hand with his right.

“……”

I thought she would be familiar with the basic posture, being the daughter of the Demon Lord, but surprisingly, she wasn’t, and she blushed and looked shy.

“Shall we begin?”

“……Okay.”

Dun dandan Dun dandan Dun dandan~

The dance began.

Turuttat—

Sayori, as if she had never been shy, displayed dazzling dance moves.

As we were dancing together in harmony.

“Minwoo-nim.”

Sayori called me in a low voice.

“What is it?”

“Now that you’ve become the Demon Lord you aimed for, what are your plans for the future?”

At her question, Jung Minwoo wondered what answer to give.

‘Well, it’s okay to be honest.’

Since she was Satan’s daughter, there was no need to hide the plan, so I answered honestly.

“As soon as I’m ready, I’m going to aim for the 30th Demon Lord position.”

“……That’s amazing.”

“I received the Demon Lord’s support, so I have to show this much ability.”

After hearing the answer, Sayori looked thoughtful for a moment.

“If I work under Minwoo-nim, will you accept me?”

Then, she opened her mouth and uttered unexpected words.

‘This is something I didn’t expect.’

Jung Minwoo calculated the benefits of having Sayori join his forces.

‘There’s nothing to lose.’

Except for having to deal with her advances, there was nothing to lose.

‘No, it’s not a loss, it’s a complete gain.’

The opportunity to have a 1st Rank demon as a subordinate was rare, and since he had received information that she had established excellent military power and influence, her joining was something to welcome with open arms.

T h i s w as c o p ie d f r om k i n gm tl . or g
“Of course, if Sayori-nim joins, it will be a great help to me.”

“Then, I will join you, Minwoo-nim.”

“You won’t regret that choice.”

At her quick decision, Jung Minwoo expressed his gratitude in a serious voice.

“Yes, I don’t think I will.”

At Sayori’s refreshing answer, Jung Minwoo burst into laughter without realizing it.

“But, may I ask why you want to join?”

“Minwoo-nim, I think I can grow if I stand by your side.”

Jung Minwoo nodded and answered that he understood.

‘Really, let’s see what her true intentions are.’

He used ‘Mind’s Eye’ to read Sayori’s thoughts.

【There are too many competitors, I’ll stick by his side and make him completely mine.】

‘Hmm……’

Her intentions were quite different from what she had just said.

‘……Even if her intentions are impure, it’s okay as long as it doesn’t harm me.’

He was a little worried that there might be a conflict with Venus and Elin, but he thought they would get along as they fought together on the battlefield.

“So, when are you thinking of coming to my Demon Lord’s Castle?”
T h is w a s c o p i e d f r om kin g mt l . or g

“I have some things to prepare, so I’ll visit you with my subordinates in a week.”

“Good, let’s sign the contract on the day you come to the Demon Lord’s Castle.”

“Okay.”

After that, they danced and discussed the terms of the contract.

When the framework for the contract terms was roughly established.

Bada-ba-ba-bam―!

The music ended just in time.

“By the way, you’re a great dancer.”

“Hehe, Minwoo-nim was amazing too.”

As Jung Minwoo returned to his seat after talking about dancing with Sayori.

“”……””

He could see Venus smiling and Elin’s shoulders slumped.

‘It looks like Venus won rock-paper-scissors.’

It seemed they had decided on the next turn.

‘It was a good idea to teach them rock-paper-scissors.’

Jung Minwoo was relieved that they had decided peacefully without fighting.

As Jung Minwoo was about to sit down and rest.

‘……Where did Rok go?’

He could see that Rok’s seat was empty.

“Anubis, where did Rok go?”

When he asked Anubis.

“I don’t know, he got up and went that way.”

She pointed in one direction and told him that Rok had moved there.

“Is that so?”

“Yeah, I tried to go with him, but he flatly refused. So I let him go alone.”

At her words that he had refused to accompany her.

‘……What? I don’t think he even touched alcohol……’

Jung Minwoo couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

Because Rok, who was crazy about Anubis, would never refuse an offer to accompany her.

“How long has it been since he left?”

“About 15 minutes, I think.”

“15 minutes……”

Since demons didn’t have physiological needs, he couldn’t help but wonder why Rok had left his seat.

‘I’d better go look for him.’

Jung Minwoo was about to head in the direction Anubis had pointed, just in case Rok had gotten lost, when.

Thud, thud, thud―

He could see a figure presumed to be Rok walking towards them from afar.

He was about to ask where Rok had been, but.

“……”

Jung Minwoo couldn’t say anything when he saw Rok.

T h is w a s cop i e d f ro m k in g m t l. o rg
Thud, thud, thud―

It was because Rok, using ‘Brain Mode’, was walking towards Anubis with a solemn expression.
