The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 252
Chapter 252: Wedding (2)
“After the wedding ceremony, one of you can apply for the Challenge for the Throne against Dantalion.”
Since Forneus had fallen from 30th to 31st place, Dantalion’s rank had also dropped from 71st to 72nd.
“Once Dantalion accepts the Challenge for the Throne, that’s when you appoint him as a ‘Proxy’. Doing so will create a vacancy in the 72nd spot, allowing you to become a Demon Lord immediately without going through the Challenge for the Throne.”
After the brief explanation.
“Hmm?”
Anubis tilted her head and asked.
“Can’t you appoint a ‘Proxy’ first?”
She wondered if it was necessary to make it so complicated.
T h i s was copi e d f r o m k i n g m tl . o rg
“If we appoint a ‘Proxy’ first, it creates a vacancy, and someone unrelated to us could become a Demon Lord.”
If someone unrelated became a Demon Lord, they would have to waste time participating in an unnecessary Challenge for the Throne.
“Aha, I understand!”
Anubis clapped her hands and replied that she understood perfectly.
“Let’s move on to the next explanation.”
“Okay.”
“Once you become a Demon Lord, you can apply for the Challenge for the Throne against the 71st ranked Demon Lord.”
Hearing that they had to apply against the 71st.
“Can’t you just apply for the Challenge for the Throne according to your own ability? Ribbit, ribbit.”
This time, Rok tilted his head and asked a question.
“That way, the remaining members can become Demon Lords quickly.”
“The remaining members can become Demon Lords quickly? Ribbit, ribbit.”
“If you win the Challenge for the Throne against the 71st ranked Demon Lord, the 71st ranked Demon Lord will drop to 72nd, right?”
“Right? Ribbit, ribbit.”
“They will lose troops through the Challenge for the Throne, and their rank will drop, so they will lose the power they held and become quite weak, right?”
“Right? Ribbit, ribbit.”
T h i s wa s c o p i e d f r o m king mtl . or g
“So, if the next person fights a weakened Demon Lord, they will win the Challenge for the Throne without much effort. Right?”
“Right. Ribbit, ribbit.”
“Since you win easily, it will save time, allowing the remaining members to quickly ascend to the position of Demon Lord.”
After kindly explaining the reason.
“Ah! I understand! Ribbit, ribbit.”
He nodded, saying he understood perfectly.
“If you go through the Challenge for the Throne up to the 70th rank in this way, all three of you will become Demon Lords.”
“Yes!”
“Ribbit, ribbit!”
Anubis and Rok answered energetically, but……
‘Hmm…… I wonder if they really understood?’
He felt a little uneasy, as if they might not have understood.
‘I’ll have to explain this separately to Aold.’
Aold was away on business, so he decided to explain it to him separately when he returned to the Demon Lord’s Castle.
“I have a question!”
Anubis, who had been nodding diligently, raised her hand and asked.
“Once we all become Demon Lords, can we just raise our ranks on our own?”
She asked how they would proceed afterward.
“That’s a good question.”
Jung Minwoo gave Anubis a thumbs-up, as this was what he was going to talk about next.
“Once you all become Demon Lords, you can apply for the Challenge for the Throne against Forneus, the 31st ranked Demon Lord.”
He explained what they needed to do after becoming Demon Lords.
“The 31st? Isn’t that too high?”
“It’s okay, he’s incredibly weak due to the Restriction.”
“How weak is he?”
“He can only use a tenth of his power.”
“Then it seems doable.”
Forneus, restricted in his power, was nothing but delicious prey.
“If you apply for the Challenge for the Throne against Forneus in turn, you can immediately rise to the top 30 ranks.”
An opportunity to raise their ranks quickly.
‘I’ll make him regret rejecting my offer.’
He planned to give this opportunity to the Demon Communion members, not anyone else, to raise their ranks.
‘If things go according to plan, our power will increase tremendously.’
Jung Minwoo felt satisfied as he imagined the Demon Communion members becoming stronger.
“Minwoo-nim, will the other Demon Lords just leave Forneus alone?”
Venus expressed her concern.
Indeed.
It was an opportunity to easily raise their ranks, so other Demon Lords wouldn’t want to leave Forneus alone.
It was a valid concern, but……
“It’s okay, the other Demon Lords won’t be able to apply for the Challenge for the Throne against Forneus.”
Such a situation wouldn’t happen.
“They won’t be able to apply……? Could you tell me why?”
“The reason is simple, we’re going to finish all of this within a day.”
“Within a day……?”
“Yes, within a day.”
This was because if they finished everything within a day, there would be no time for other Demon Lords to interfere.
Moreover, since they wouldn’t be bringing their subordinates, it would be difficult for other Demon Lords to apply for the Challenge for the Throne.
Th i s w as c o p i e d fro m k ingmt l . o r g
“What if, by any chance, someone applies for the Challenge for the Throne without subordinates?”
“We’ll make an example of that Demon Lord and lower their rank.”
Since he planned to deploy his subordinates as mercenaries during the Challenge for the Throne, he could easily eliminate a Demon Lord who didn’t know their place.
‘I’m also planning to have Dantalion participate as my subordinate. We can’t lose.’
Since he could exert the power of a 31st ranked Demon Lord as a Proxy, he would easily be able to subdue any Demon Lords who applied for the Challenge for the Throne.
“……Certainly, if Dantalion-nim, appointed as a ‘Proxy’, steps forward, the opposing Demon Lord will have no choice but to lose.”
“If we make an example of one, others won’t dare to apply for the Challenge for the Throne.”
“If they’re sane, they won’t even think about applying.”
Venus nodded in understanding.
T h i s wa s c o p ied f ro m ki n g m t l . o r g
After finishing the explanation about the Challenge for the Throne.
“Shall we move on to the wedding now?”
They moved on to the next topic.
“Everyone, are your dresses ready?”
Jung Minwoo asked.
T h i s w a s c o pi e d f r o m k in g m tl . o rg
“Yes, I’m ready.”
“Of course.”
Venus and Sayori replied that they were ready.
“Elin, what about you?”
T h i s w a s c o pi e d fr om k i n gm t l . or g
He turned to Elin and asked.
“……I did prepare, but I think I’ll need to get it refitted because my body has grown.”
She replied that she needed to get a new dress.
‘Come to think of it, her body shape must be different now, so she’ll need a new one.’
If she wore the dress she had previously prepared, the skirt would be incredibly short.
“I need to get mine fitted too, so let’s go to the dress room together later.”
“……Okay!”
Jung Minwoo turned his gaze to the Head Butler in his office.
“Head Butler, could you please prepare tuxedos and dresses for us?”
He asked him to prepare the clothes in the dress room.
“Right away, sir.”
The Head Butler looked determined and left the office to make the preparations.
After resolving the tuxedo and dress issue.
“Did you prepare the invitations?”
He moved on to the topic of invitations to be sent to the guests.
“No, I don’t have any demons to send them to……”
“……Me neither.”
Venus and Elin laughed awkwardly and replied that they hadn’t prepared any.
‘They don’t have any demons they usually associate with, so there’s nowhere to send them.’
Jung Minwoo hadn’t prepared any invitations either, as he didn’t have any demons to invite.
He had considered sending one to ‘Deetan’, the Headmaster of the Training Center, but there was no need since he was one of Satan’s close associates.
‘And it’s not like I can bring Higher Beings here.’
Higher Beings couldn’t even cross over to the Demon World in the first place.
‘Even if they could, I wouldn’t bring them here.’
Demons wouldn’t take kindly to Higher Beings setting foot on their land.
“What about Sayori-nim?”
“I prepared some.”
She said she had prepared nearly a hundred invitations, as she had quite a few demons she was close to.
“Then, I will distribute the invitations to the Demon Lords.”
Th i s was c o p i e d fr o m k i n g m t l . o r g
“Alright.”
The discussion about the invitations ended quickly.
“Now, lastly, shall we decide on a location for our honeymoon?”
The most important topic.
It was time to decide on their honeymoon destination.
Th i s wa s c op ied f r o m k i n g m t l .o rg
“””Honeymoon……”””
Everyone’s faces flushed, as if they were looking forward to the honeymoon.
‘I need to choose a good location to meet their expectations.’
As Jung Minwoo was pondering where to go……
【Based on the analysis of flushed faces and irregular breathing, it appears they are looking forward to something other than the trip】
Helper suddenly spoke up.
【Using ‘Mind’s Eye’ may allow for a clearer understanding of what they are anticipating】
He then requested that Jung Minwoo use ‘Mind’s Eye’.
‘Rejected.’
Jung Minwoo rejected Helper’s request without a second thought.
【Accurate understanding is necessary to build information data】
Jung Minwoo sighed inwardly at the persistent request.
‘Should I cancel this Unique Trait?’
He warned Helper that he would cancel his Unique Trait if he asked one more time.
【……】
Helper immediately shut up, as if he didn’t want his Unique Trait to be canceled.
‘What does he need this information data for?’
He was simply baffled by Helper’s incomprehensible behavior.
‘Let’s put Helper aside and focus on the honeymoon destination again.’
Jung Minwoo looked at Venus, Elin, and Sayori and spoke.
“Do any of you have a place you want to go?”
He asked for their opinions, as he would actively consider them if they had any preferences.
“No, I don’t have any place I want to go.”
“……Me neither.”
“I don’t have any particular place I want to go either.”
They all shook their heads, as if they hadn’t thought of anywhere specific.
‘Where would be good……’
T h i s w a s co p i e d f r om k in g m t l. org
Just as he was about to start pondering again……
“Can I recommend a place?”
Satan spoke up, saying he knew a good place.
“Yes, please feel free to tell us.”
“I have an island. How about going there?”
“An island, sir?”
“Yes, there’s a villa there, so you’ll have no problem resting.”
Since it was an island, it would be surrounded by the sea, which seemed quite charming.
‘There’s a villa, so we just need to pack food.’
If they rested there, they would be able to relieve their accumulated fatigue and create some fun memories.
“I think it’s a good idea, what do you all think?”
He asked for their opinions.
T h i s w a s c o pie d f r o m k in g m t l . or g
“It sounds charming and nice.”
“……I think it’s okay.”
“We can spend time entirely on our own without being disturbed by other demons, so it’s perfect for a honeymoon.”
They all expressed their agreement.
“Thank you for recommending such a wonderful honeymoon destination.”
He thanked Satan for providing the location.
“No, I’m rather grateful that you’re going to the place I recommended.”
Satan gave a meaningful smile.
That smile bothered him a little, but……
‘He’s probably just smiling because he’s happy.’
He decided not to overthink it.
‘Now that we’ve finished discussing everything, shall we go get our tuxedos fitted?’
They had finished discussing everything they needed to.
“Since we’re done talking, shall we get up?”
The Demon Communion members nodded at Jung Minwoo’s words and left the office.
“See you in a week, son-in-law.”
“Yes, I’ll see you in a week.”
Satan patted his shoulder and followed his daughter out of the office.
Now, only two people remained in the office: Jung Minwoo and Elin.
“Let’s go.”
“……Okay.”
Jung Minwoo and Elin entered the dress room to get their clothes fitted.
Time flew by, and a week later, the day of the winner announcement and wedding ceremony arrived.
