The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 263

Chapter 263: 10th Place (1)

When I returned to the Demon Lord’s Castle after my honeymoon.

“Hmm?”

Perhaps they were waiting for me in advance, because I could see Anubis, Rok, and Aold gathered at the main gate.

As I folded my wings and landed in front of them.

“Did you have fun?”

“I missed you guys! Ribbit, ribbit.”

“Did you have a good trip?”

Anubis, Rok, and Aold asked me how my honeymoon went.

“Yeah, I had a good time.”

Jung Minwoo answered with a bright smile and then.

“By the way, seeing that everyone’s strength has become incomparably stronger compared to before, it seems you’ve raised your ranks as planned?”

Seeing their intensified power, he asked if they had risen in the ranks as planned.

“Who do you think I am, I climbed to 31st place as planned.”

“That’s right, I’m in 32nd place! Ribbit, ribbit.”

“Yes, Master-nim, thanks to your plan, I have reached 33rd place.”

As expected, they had indeed risen in the ranks, as the Demon Communion members answered with confident expressions.

“I’m glad it went according to plan.”

Jung Minwoo thought it was fortunate that he could proceed with the next plan without a hitch thanks to the Demon Communion members’ answers.

“Now that you’re a Demon Lord. Shall we spar once?”

At Anubis’s words.

“That’s right, we should spar once! Ribbit, ribbit.”

“Now that you’ve become a Demon Lord, I think it would be good to check your strength through sparring at least once.”

Rok and Aold agreed, saying let’s spar.

“Sparring……”

Certainly, he wanted to check the Demon Communion members’ strength, so it was a slightly tempting proposition.

‘Since everyone’s strength has increased, I don’t think sparring will end in just one day.’

However, to carry out the following plan, he needed to start preparing as soon as possible, so he couldn’t help but worry.

‘What should I do……’

Just when he was at a crossroads, agonizing over whether to postpone the sparring or not.

“Minwoo-nim, wouldn’t it be good to spar?”

“……That’s right, if you spar, you can also aim for skill improvement.”

Th i s was c op i ed f r o m k i n g m t l .o r g
“I agree. We can make up for our shortcomings through sparring, so I think it would be good to do it at this opportunity.”

Venus, Elin, and Sayori chimed in, giving their support to the side in favor of sparring.

‘Well, unlike before, we’ve gained immense power, so we’ll need time to master it.’

He thought that if they proceeded with the plan without mastering their strength, problems would arise because they wouldn’t be able to handle their power properly.

‘This can also be considered part of the preparation.’

After finishing his thoughts, Jung Minwoo.

T h i s w a s c o pied f r o m k i n g m t l. o rg
“Let’s go to the training room.”

Accepting their suggestion, he proposed going to the training room right away.

“Oh, let’s go right away!”

T h is w a s co p ie d f r om k in g mt l . o r g
“Hehehe, Minwoo, do you think you can handle my power? I may look like this, but I’m a 32nd ranked Demon Lord. Ribbit, ribbit.”

“I won’t get beaten up helplessly like before.”

Then Anubis, Rok, and Aold showed meaningful smiles.

“Minwoo-nim is strong, but it’ll be hard for him to face all of us.”

“……Minwoo, it’s going to be a little difficult this time.”

“Huhu, are we going to see Minwoo-nim’s first defeat?”

Venus, Elin, and Sayori showed their confidence.

‘It’s going to be tough.’

Currently, Venus, Elin, and Sayori could exert the same strength as a 30th ranked Demon Lord.

Anubis could wield the strength of a 31st ranked, Rok a 32nd ranked, and Aold a 33rd ranked Demon Lord, so unlike before when there was a difference in ranks, now there wasn’t much difference.

In other words, if things went wrong, he could lose as they said.

‘I need to be serious if I don’t want to lose.’

In terms of power alone, he was at a disadvantage, but.

‘I don’t think I’ll lose.’

He was confident that he would win the sparring match because he had been taught by Satan and, unlike them, had mastered his strength a long time ago.

‘Let’s see who wins and who loses.’

Burning with a competitive spirit, Jung Minwoo moved to the Demon Lord’s exclusive training room with the Demon Communion members.

Arriving at the Demon Lord’s exclusive training room.

“Let’s start as soon as you’re ready.”

Jung Minwoo told the Demon Communion members to get ready, and at the same time.

【Which demon’s unique trait would you like to copy?】

Rok

Aold

Anubis

Elin

Venus

Lucifer

Dantalion

666 (Deceased)

Sayori

He called up the message window.

‘I’ll copy them all.’

Jung Minwoo pondered which unique traits to use, but in the end, he decided to copy them all and use them.

You might say, didn’t you only use ‘Brain Eye’ when you fought Satan before?

‘The difference in power was too great, so there was nothing I could do.’

In Satan’s case, the power gap was so large that he had to pour all his demonic energy into ‘Brain Eye’ to avoid attacks.

‘In this case, the total amount of power is similar, so it’s right to copy all the unique traits to increase my strength.’

Moreover, since he could now perfectly control his demonic energy, if he used ‘Brain Eye’ by using his demonic energy appropriately, he could exert even greater power.

While he was lost in thought.

【Copying Rok’s unique trait ‘Ultimate Evolution’】

【Copying Aold’s unique trait ‘Clone Generation’】

【Copying Anubis’s unique trait ‘Awakening’】

【Copying Elin’s unique trait ‘Elemental Affinity’】

【Copying Venus’s unique trait ‘Charm’】

【Copying Lucifer’s unique trait ‘Pride’】

【Copying Sayori’s unique trait ‘Massacre’】

Message windows popped up, saying that he was copying unique traits.

Thump―――!

With the feeling of strength surging from his body.

“Phew……”

His appearance began to change.

First, his black hair turned red.

His casual clothes changed into red armor.

And even a red cloak.

When he finished copying all the unique traits.

Goooooooooooo―

An intense pressure emanated from Jung Minwoo.

‘I’m overflowing with power.’

Thanks to Rok’s ‘Ultimate Evolution’, his brain became sharp, and countless strategies came to mind.

‘Is my chance of winning the sparring match roughly 70%?

Jung Minwoo organized his thoughts and gauged his winning percentage.

‘Helper, what do you think?’

He asked Helper what his thoughts were.

【If you go all out, the probability of victory is 68.9%】

He gave an opinion similar to his own.

‘Not bad.’

Seeing that he agreed with Helper, he thought that if nothing unexpected happened, he would be able to win the sparring match without any problems.

‘Still, it’s not good to be careless.’
T h i s wa s co p i e d fro m k ing m t l .o rg

After finishing all his preparations, Jung Minwoo raised his head and looked at the Demon Communion members.

‘Everyone’s ready.’

Seeing that they were all using their unique traits, he thought it would be okay to start now.

“Everyone, are you ready?”

At Jung Minwoo’s question.

“Yes, I’m done.”

Starting with Venus’s answer, who was holding a whip.

“I’m done a long time ago.”

Anubis, whose hair had turned red from using ‘Awakening’.

“Minwoo, you’d better be nervous.”

Rok, who had transformed into his human form.

“……Yes, I’m ready.”

Elin, preparing to create elements.

“Yes, I’m ready.”

Aold, who had created thousands of clones in the training room.

“Huhu, I’m ready.”

And Sayori, wearing red armor and holding an axe.

They all said they were ready.

“Is that so? Then let’s begin.”

When he said he would start the sparring match.

[Protective barriers will be set according to each person’s defense. Defeat occurs when the barrier is destroyed]

A faint black veil began to envelop his body.

[We will begin the sparring match in 5 seconds]

When the veil completely enveloped his body, it informed him that the sparring would begin soon.

[5]

[4]

[3]

[2]

[1]

The countdown ended.

Beep―――!

The moment the buzzer rang.

Fwoosh!

The Demon Communion members all charged at him at once.

Looking at them charging at him, Jung Minwoo.

‘Helper, you respond to ranged attacks, I’ll respond to close-range attacks.’

He gave an order to Helper and adjusted his posture.

【Received the right to use unique traits, proceeding with ‘Battle’】

Just as he finished giving the order.

“……Minwoo, try to block this well.”

Elin created and shot gear-shaped winds.

“Wow……”

T h i s w as c o p ie d f ro m k i n g m t l .o r g
At that sight, Jung Minwoo let out an exclamation of admiration without realizing it.

‘You said that if you use the elements that exist around you, demonic energy doesn’t get used……?’

It was only natural because each of the gear-shaped winds contained enough power to kill a 30th ranked Demon Lord in one blow.

‘And you can create them endlessly?’

Any ordinary Demon Lord would die without being able to respond to the rushing attack, but.

‘I’m different.’

Jung Minwoo had a way to perfectly defend against that attack.

【Responding to ranged attacks. Using the same unique trait, ‘Elemental Affinity’】

Along with Helper’s words that he was starting to respond.

Swoosh―

The gear-shaped winds, which had been holding tremendous power, all disappeared at once.

“……Huh, huh?”

Elin panicked and tried to make gears again, but.

Swoosh―

Unfortunately, they continued to disperse and disappear.

“……Don’t tell me?”

Only then did Elin, noticing something strange, look at him with astonished eyes.

“That’s right, I copied the ‘Elemental Affinity’ unique trait to nullify your attack.”

“……As expected.”

T h i s was c o p i e d fr o m k i n g m t l . or g
Elin made a frustrated expression and stepped back.

‘Wise.’

Currently, Elin, whose unique trait had been bound, couldn’t do anything.

‘It’s better to wait for an opportunity from behind.’

If she had forced herself to use demonic energy, she would have been exhausted and collapsed first.

‘It’s good to counter with the same unique trait.’

The only weakness of Elin’s unique trait.

‘I said it was a weakness, but since only Satan and I can use it, it won’t be countered by other demons.’

Just when he was feeling satisfied with the situation that was going in his favor from the beginning of the sparring match.

“Aren’t you being too confident?”

T h i s wa s co p i e d f r o m k ing m t l.or g
“You shouldn’t be distracted.”

Anubis, whose hair had turned red from using ‘Awakening’, and Sayori, wearing red armor from using ‘Massacre’, approached right in front of him, and.

Whoo―――oong.

Whoo―――oong.

Swung their greatsword and axe.

【Torso】, 【Head】

Jung Minwoo, who grasped their attack trajectories through ‘Mind’s Eye’.

Step―

Stepped back and easily dodged the attacks.

No, the moment he tried to dodge.

“I knew this would happen.”

Rok, who had a human face, showed a sly smile, and.

Whoo―――――――oong!

Threw a punch.

“Oh.”

It was too late to dodge to the side.

‘Everyone’s attack speed is fast because they’ve become Demon Lords.’

Since their speed was fast, it was no longer easy to dodge.

‘But they still have a long way to go.’

It was only not easy, it was not impossible to dodge.

He immediately used ‘Brain Eye’.

Thump―

With the feeling of his head clearing, the world began to flow slowly.

Step, step, step―

He tried to walk to the side leisurely, but.

‘Their reactions are fast.’

Perhaps because their power had increased, their attacks were quite fast even though time was flowing slowly.

‘If I walk to dodge, I’ll get hit.’

Jung Minwoo quickly moved to dodge the attacks, and.

“Shall I counterattack now?”

T h i s w a s c op i e d fr o m ki ng m t l . o r g
He put demonic energy into his fist and swung it at Rok.

Booo―――――――――m!

When he struck Rok’s face.

“Ugh?!”
Th i s w a s c o p i e d fr o m k i n g m t l . o r g

Thud―
T hi s wa s c o pi e d fr o m k ingmt l . or g

Rok’s body flew backward and rolled pathetically on the floor.

Then, when he was about to hit Anubis next.

Shushushuk―

Feathers sprang out from Anubis and Sayori’s chests, and.

Whoo―oong.

Covered in demonic energy, they began to fly towards his face.
