The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 228
Chapter 228: Become My Subordinate
While the other Jungsin Cult members were busy recruiting subordinates.
“This is the place where unaffiliated demons who have completed the training center gather.”
Venus was standing in front of a building.
“I hope many of you will be recruited as subordinates.”
She had come a long way, and it would be a loss of face if she returned empty-handed without any meaningful results.
“I think it’s best to double-check before we go in.”
Venus turned her head and asked, looking at the demon standing next to her.
“Are you sure this is the place?”
“Yes, I’m sure. Our meetings are only held here.”
The demon replied in a confident voice, his eyes glazed over.
“I see.”
Venus nodded, briefly adjusted her clothes, and then.
T h i s w as c o pi ed f r o m k i n gm tl . o rg
Burst—
T h is w as cop i e d f r o m k i ngm tl . o r g
She opened the door and went inside.
Murmur, murmur, murmur—
As she stepped inside and glanced around, she could see quite a few demons present.
T h i s wa s c o pi e d f r o m k i ngmt l . o r g
‘Hmm…… Most of them are low-level, but fortunately, I can see a few useful ones among them.’
Venus breathed a sigh of relief at the fact that there was more potential than she had expected.
‘It’s not polite to stand at the door and talk, so why don’t I move to the center?’
Click, click, click—
As she moved toward the center.
Th i s w a s c o p i e d f r o m k i ngm t l . org
“……Who is that?”
“I’ve never seen them before.”
“Do you know that demon?”
The demons who had been chatting with each other stopped talking and started looking at Venus one by one.
“But they’re quite good-looking.”
“Beautiful……”
“Was such a beauty a member of our group?”
And the demons let out faint admiration at Venus’s pure and beautiful appearance.
After admiring her beauty for a while.
“Wait…… But they seem quite strong?”
“Judging by the demonic energy flowing out of them, they seem to be at least 1st Rank?”
“1st Rank, but their power is beyond that. I’ve actually seen a 1st Rank demon before, but their demonic energy wasn’t this dense.”
They were stunned to see the power emanating from Venus.
“There shouldn’t be any 1st Rank demons in our group……?”
“Does anyone know them?”
“Are they really an unaffiliated demon?”
As the demons became wary of Venus and started to back away stealthily.
“Uh, uh?”
One demon took a closer look at Venus and muttered to himself with an incredulous expression.
“Why is she here……?”
“What? Do you know them?”
“Where did they come from?”
When the other demons who heard the muttering asked about Venus’s identity.
“She was my classmate from the training center.”
The demon who was asked the question replied with a hesitant expression.
“Classmate?”
“Did they also graduate as unaffiliated?”
“Such a strong demon is unaffiliated?”
The demons stared at Venus with sparkling eyes, and at that moment.
“No, she joined the Demon Lord’s organization. And I heard she’s currently working under Jung Minwoo, the 72nd Demon Lord.”
The training center classmate shook his head and replied that she wasn’t unaffiliated.
“……What? They’re from the Demon Lord’s Castle?”
“But why are they here?”
“How did they find out about this place instead of that?”
The other demons started murmuring at the appearance of a demon who had an affiliation.
Murmur, murmur, murmur—
As the murmurs grew louder and louder, Venus clapped her hands in the center.
Clap, clap—
She drew everyone’s attention.
“Hello, everyone.”
Venus greeted the demons with a bright smile and continued.
“I’m Venus, working under the 72nd Demon Lord, Jung Minwoo. The reason I’m here is to build my own faction.”
She gave a brief self-introduction and explained her purpose for coming.
“I’ll make sure you’re well compensated.”
With Venus’s promise to take care of them according to their rank.
“Ha, what nonsense.”
“Compensation? Seriously.”
“She’s basically saying she came here to find subordinates.”
“This is ridiculous. Does she think this is a place to find subordinates?”
The demons inside the building frowned and showed hostility towards Venus.
Most demons who graduated from the training center as unaffiliated envied and were jealous of those who belonged to the Demon Lord’s organization.
That’s why they took Venus’s words offensively and showed hostility.
“If it’s Jung Minwoo, isn’t he the one who became a Demon Lord in the shortest time?”
“Wouldn’t it be worth following his subordinate?”
“I don’t think it would be bad to hear what kind of compensation they offer before making a decision.”
“I heard rumors that his subordinates have power comparable to a Demon Lord…… If that’s true, isn’t this a great opportunity?”
Of course, there were also quite a few demons who showed interest in Venus’s offer.
“Let’s hear them out first.”
Venus didn’t panic at the intense hostility, but maintained her smile and explained the vision of the Demon Lord’s Castle and the benefits they could enjoy if they joined her.
“Of course, these terms will be added to the contract, so you can check them when you sign it.”
When all the explanations were over, the demons who had shown interest completely turned to Venus’s side.
“Tsk, compensation? That’s funny.”
“Does she think we’ll join just because of that?”
“I really don’t like her.”
However, the demons who had shown hostility seemed to be stubborn in their thinking, continuing to show hostility even after hearing the explanation.
“I have no intention of forcing you, so please come outside if you want to join me as a subordinate.”
Venus’s expression didn’t change even when they openly mocked her.
T h i s w a s cop i e d f ro m king m t l . o r g
“Then, shall we move?”
Just as Venus was about to lead the demons outside.
“Tsk, she got lucky by having a good classmate and is acting all high and mighty.”
“I bet she got her position by seducing someone with her face.”
“It must be nice~ to get lucky just because you’re pretty.”
Halt—
Venus stopped in her tracks at the mocking words.
Whirl—
She turned around with a hardened expression and said.
“First of all, I apologize for interrupting your gathering.”
She bowed her head and apologized.
“Of course, I understand why you’re upset. I’m an uninvited guest to you.”
She also added, empathizing with them by acknowledging that their displeasure was justified.
“……What?”
“Hmm?”
As the demons showed bewilderment at the unexpected reaction.
“I’ll compensate you separately when I return to the Demon Lord’s Castle.”
Even though she must have heard the insults, Venus showed magnanimity by offering compensation.
“I’ll take my leave now.”
T h i s w a s c o p i e d f r o m k i n gm tl . o r g
She bowed her head once again and then.
Click, click, click—
Venus walked towards the door as if nothing had happened.
“””……”””
The demons who were staring blankly at her.
“What is that crazy bitch talking about?”
“She’s just speechless because she’s guilty.”
“Does it feel good to get your position that way?”
“The Demon Lord who has you as a subordinate must be pathetic.”
They felt even more envious of her magnanimous attitude and crossed the line they shouldn’t have crossed.
Halt—
As Venus stopped again.
Gulp—
At that moment, an intense killing intent began to sweep through the building.
“I tried to hold back as much as possible because I’m an uninvited guest, but I can’t tolerate insults towards him.”
Gulp—
“Kneel down right now and apologize for insulting him.”
One of the demons who had spoken rudely stepped forward despite Venus’s warning and asked arrogantly.
“What if I don’t?”
“If you don’t, you’ll die here.”
The answer came without a second thought.
If this were a neutral zone, it would have been just a threat.
Unfortunately, this wasn’t a neutral zone, so she could actually kill them if she wanted to.
“Really? Try it if you can.”
The demon trembled for a moment at the intense killing intent, but then smirked confidently and drew his weapon.
He knew he couldn’t face a 1st Rank demon alone, but.
“Do you think you can handle this many people?”
If 1,000 demons joined the fight, the story would be different.
He was sure that there were quite a few 2nd Rank demons among them, so if they fought, they would have the upper hand.
Shing, shing, shing, shing, shing, shing—
Following his lead, the demons drew their weapons and raised their demonic energy as if they were about to fight at any moment.
“Are you sure you won’t regret this?”
“Shut up, you’ll be the one regretting coming here!”
The demon at the front shouted and charged towards Venus.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
“Let’s show them our power.”
“Disrupting the atmosphere here?”
“Shall we hunt a 1st Rank demon and take their demonic energy?”
Th i s w as c o p i e d f r o m k i n g m t l. o rg
“Hehehe, we can get a lot of demonic energy if we just kill them.”
And so, most of the demons charged towards Venus.
Venus, watching the demons charge at her.
“Phew, I was worried what I would do if they actually knelt down and apologized, but it’s a relief they’re attacking me.”
She smiled brightly and said.
“If they had apologized, I would have been disappointed that I couldn’t kill them.”
She raised her demonic energy.
Fwoosh—
The charging demons trembled at the powerful demonic energy, but.
“Don’t be scared!”
T hi s w a s c o p i e d f r o m k i ng m t l . o rg
“She’s alone anyway!”
“Kill her!!!”
They continued to charge, trusting in their numbers.
Just as they were about to reach her.
“Everyone, stop where you are.”
Venus used her unique trait and gave the demons an order.
“What is she talking about……”
“Ha, does she think anyone will stop just because she says so……”
“Who would listen to her words……”
The demons who were mocking her words.
Halt—
Their eyes glazed over, and they all stopped in their tracks.
“Wh, what just happened……”
“My, my body!”
“She stopped all of us……?”
A few demons with strong willpower tried to resist, but unfortunately, they failed to break free.
“Now, kill each other.”
As Venus gave a new order.
“D, die!!”
“You die!!”
“Follow the order!”
“I’ll kill you all!!!”
Stab, stab, slash, crack, boom, bang……
They began to attack each other with all their might, wielding their weapons.
And the other demons who were watching this scene from behind.
“””What in the world……”””
They were bewildered, unable to believe what was unfolding before their eyes.
Sensing their gaze, Venus turned her head back, smiled brightly, and said.
“You know insulting the Demon Lord is a serious crime, right?”
She warned the demons.
“””Yes, we know!”””
T h i s w a s c o p ie d f r o m k in g m t l . o r g
The warned demons replied energetically with stiff postures.
“You’re all smart.”
Venus nodded with a satisfied expression and turned her gaze back to the front.
After about 10 minutes had passed.
“I, I killed them all!!!”
All but one demon, covered in blood, were dead.
“Oh, impressive. You don’t seem to have a high rank, but you managed to survive until the end.”
“Th, thank you!”
The demon scratched his head shyly at Venus’s praise.
“Then, would you die now?”
The demon who received the new order.
“Ah, ah……!”
Reacted with gratitude as if he was honored to receive the order and then.
T hi s w a s c o p ied f r o m k in g m t l. or g
“As you wish, Master!”
Slash—
He cut his own throat with the sword he was holding.
“Phew, it’s all cleaned up now.”
Venus, who had dealt with 1,000 demons without even getting blood on her hands.
“Shall we make a contract now?”
She finished making contracts with the remaining demons and returned to the Demon Lord’s Castle.
