The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 284
Chapter 284: Earth (4)
To Jung Minwoo’s question.
“Of course.”
“Yes, I want to make a pact.”
Masin and Cheonsin nodded their heads and answered.
“For fairness, I intend to make a pact with both of you.”
At the remark that he would make a pact with both of them, Masin’s expression crumpled, and Cheonsin’s face brightened.
“However, I cannot overlook Cheonsin’s trickery, so I intend to give Masin a slight advantage.”
When he said he would give an advantage.
“You’re only giving an advantage to Masin……?”
Cheonsin spoke with a look of injustice.
“If you have a complaint, speak up. I can just not make a pact with you.”
“……”
“Aren’t you going to answer?”
“I apologize, my thinking was shortsighted.”
If she couldn’t make a pact, Cheonsin would be the only one at a loss, so she quickly backed down.
“I will explain how to appoint ‘Junga’.”
If he were to simply hand out appointments, their rarity would diminish, so Jung Minwoo came up with a method.
A way to maintain rarity and enhance value.
That is,
“I will only appoint them to the tournament victors.”
It was to appoint ‘Junga’ only to the winner through a tournament format.
“It will only be held once every ten thousand years, and the Celestial Realm can select 6 people, and the Demon World can select 12.”
At the words that they could select 12 people, Masin, who was listening to the conversation, showed a satisfied smile.
He realized that the advantage he had mentioned earlier was referring to this.
“I will name the tournament ‘Jungcheonma’.”
There was no special reason for naming it Jungcheonma.
It was simply a combination of the letters from their proper nouns.
“Also, those appointed as Junga should be given separate ranks called ‘Jungcheon’ and ‘Jungma’.”
“That’s not difficult.”
“Understood.”
The reason for separating the ranks was to distinguish those appointed as ‘Junga’.
“I plan to hold the ‘Jungcheonma’ in a year and then every ten thousand years after that. Do you agree?”
T h is wa s co p i e d f r o m k i ng m t l . o r g
“”We agree.””
Jung Minwoo took out a parchment and said.
“Then, let’s make a pact.”
They took time to draw up the agreement.
‘I should include clauses that are advantageous to me.’
To gain an upper hand, Jung Minwoo wrote,
― Jungsin can dismiss those appointed as ‘Junga’ without consultation.
He added the above content.
In other words, it was an implicit threat that he would immediately strip them of their position if they crossed him.
Cheonsin and Masin’s expressions hardened, but they accepted without a word because they were in the weaker position.
One might worry, what would he do if Cheonsin and Masin decided to attack him?
‘That’s no problem.’
If such a thing happened, he would just take back their power and crush them.
‘Since I have the unique trait ‘Intervention’, I won’t lose.’
The ‘Intervention’ unique trait was also given to the ‘Jungin’, so he could easily handle them using corrupted Demon Servants.
Of course, he would only be able to hunt down the small fry.
‘Those with high ranks can be dealt with by my wives and children.’
If they were to fight on a planet, even Jung Hongju, ranked 72nd, could crush Baal, ranked 1st.
One might say that Masin could just take back his power, but……
‘Even if he takes it back, it doesn’t matter.’
No matter how weak he became, with the ‘Intervention’ unique trait, he wouldn’t lose.
‘Actually, I can handle it myself without my wives and children having to step in.’
Even gods were not free from planetary restrictions, so Cheonsin and Masin were no match for him.
‘They’re smart, so they must know this.’
That’s why Cheonsin and Masin were currently being cautious.
Afterward, they finished the pact.
“Then, I’ll be on my way.”
T h is w a s c o pi e d f r o m k i n g m t l . or g
Just as he was about to open the portal to return to Earth.
‘Ah!’
A brilliant idea flashed through his mind.
‘Right, it’s a shame to leave like this.’
Jung Minwoo turned his gaze to Cheonsin and Masin and spoke of the thought that had just come to mind.
“To commemorate the pact, I will hold a small event.”
“……An event?”
“What kind of event are you talking about?”
At the word “event”, Masin and Cheonsin tilted their heads in curiosity.
“The event is simple. The side that increases the number of their followers – believers or Demon Servants – on Earth the most will be given a one-time benefit of bringing 5 additional members to the ‘Jungcheonma’.”
Upon hearing the benefit, Cheonsin and Masin……
Flash—
Their eyes shone brightly for a moment.
Crackle—
They glared at each other.
“The period is one year. I will judge based on the number of people and their power when the ‘Jungcheonma’ is held.”
There was a reason for suddenly holding this event.
‘This way, they’ll work harder.’
Even without this event, Earth was a coveted planet, so they would work hard to create believers and Demon Servants, but……
If an event was involved, they would work even harder.
“Then, I will take my leave. I’ll see you in a year when the ‘Jungcheonma’ is held.”
With that, Jung Minwoo bid farewell to Cheonsin and Masin and returned to Earth.
Returning to Earth.
‘Only 10 minutes have passed?’
Due to the different time flow, not much time had passed.
‘I was worried that a lot of time had passed, but that’s a relief.’
T his wa s co p ie d f r o m k i n g m t l . o rg
For the hungry group, Jung Minwoo said,
“Let’s go eat.”
He immediately took them to a samgyeopsal restaurant.
As they entered the restaurant.
“Oh my! Minwoo?”
An ajumma with a kind face greeted them.
“It’s been a while, Sajang-nim.”
It was his favorite restaurant in the past, but 5 years had passed in Earth’s time flow, so he thought she might not remember him. He was grateful that she did.
“What have you been up to? You said you got a job at a conglomerate, but you haven’t been here for 5 years.”
At the ajumma’s words.
“I moved to an even better company and I’m doing well.”
He answered with a chuckle.
‘The problem is that the company I moved to is the Demon World.’
Jung Minwoo added the unspoken words inwardly and sat down.
“Sajang-nim, please give us 20 servings here.”
“Alright~”
As they waited for the meat.
“Oh my, this is fascinating.”
“……The structure is interesting.”
“It’s definitely different from the Demon World.”
Venus, Elin, and Sayori looked around, seemingly fascinated.
“I’m curious how the food will taste.”
T hi s w as c op i e d f r om ki n gmt l. o r g
“Will it taste the same as the meat in the Demon World?”
“I’m looking forward to it.”
Jung Garam, Jung Hanna, and Jung Hongju expressed their anticipation for the taste of the food.
“Honey, it’s changed a lot.”
“You’re right, it’s made tremendous progress since we last saw it.”
And Satan and Lilith were reminiscing about old memories and comparing them to the present.
Lastly, his family……
Th i s wa s c o p i ed fr o m ki n g mt l. o r g
Blink, blink—
T h i s w a s co pi e d f r om k i n gm t l .or g
They were watching the people seated.
The side dishes and samgyeopsal came out.
T h i s wa s c o p i e d from k i ngm t l . o r g
Sizzle—
As they started to grill the meat.
“Minwoo, how did you meet your wives?”
His mother casually asked about the reason he married his wives.
“It’s a long story, is it okay?”
“I can listen to my son’s stories all day long.”
Perk—
The children also seemed curious about the reason for his marriage, as they stopped eating the side dishes and turned their attention to him.
“Alright, the reason I got married is……”
T h i s w a s c o pi e d f r om k i n gm t l. o r g
To prevent anyone from eavesdropping on the conversation, Jung Minwoo cast an invisible barrier and began to tell the story of his marriage.
If he were to say that he married for benefits, it might seem unromantic, so he embellished the story in his own romantic way.
Regardless of how it started, wasn’t it important that he now truly loved his wives?
The children listened to the story with sparkling eyes.
“””Ohhh……”””
His family showed a captivating look, as if they were watching a morning drama, engrossed in his story.
“As expected, my son-in-law is romantic.”
Satan, knowing the truth of the story, played along.
“Oh my, our Jung son-in-law is a romantic.”
Lilith looked at him with a burdensome gaze.
And the protagonists of the story……
“””……”””
They were blushing with embarrassment and lowering their heads.
Around the time the story ended.
“It’s cooked, so try it.”
The meat was cooked to a golden brown.
As he served the meat on everyone’s plates.
They all started to eat the meat.
“””Wow……!”””
As expected, he had chosen the samgyeopsal restaurant well, as everyone’s reaction was good.
Seeing his wives and children eating deliciously, he felt like taking them to other delicious restaurants.
‘I just need to avoid taking them to places with spicy food.’
As he was thinking about taking them to a restaurant tomorrow.
Crackle—
The television, which was broadcasting a variety show, started to flicker and……
― Breaking News!
A news screen appeared, showing an anchor with an urgent expression.
― It is reported that angels and demons have appeared! Reporter Kim Ahyeon!
At the anchor’s call.
― Yes, this is Reporter Kim Ahyeon!
The screen changed, showing the reporter.
― Beings mentioned in the Bible, angels and demons, have appeared!
The camera pointed towards the sky, showing……
― Everyone, chaos will soon come! We need to prepare for the chaos!
― If you want to live, make a contract with us! We will grant you power!
An angel with pure white wings and a demon with black and white wings were shouting at the top of their lungs, engaging in missionary work.
T h i s w a s co pi e d f r om k i ng mt l .o r g
‘The demon is a face I know, and the pigeon is a face I’ve never seen before, but it must be one of the Four Archangels.’
The demon was ‘Agares’, the 2nd ranked Demon Lord.
‘It seems the event I set up is having an effect.’
Judging by the way they were desperately engaging in missionary work, he assumed they had received separate orders from Masin.
One might wonder why a demon would engage in missionary work, but……
‘It’s not a bad choice.’
Humans on Earth sometimes had a darker side than demons, making them difficult to corrupt.
Therefore, openly engaging in missionary work like this had a higher chance of making contracts than trying to corrupt them.
― Currently, individuals presumed to be angels and demons are implying that chaos will come and are urging people to serve them.
The reporter calmly relayed the situation, despite the circumstances.
― I will approach them and ask what kind of chaos will come.
Thud, thud, thud—
The reporter bravely approached the angel and demon and asked,
― This is Reporter Kim Ahyeon! Is it possible to have an interview?
She requested an interview.
― Alright.
― Sure.
Surprisingly, both of them readily agreed to the interview and came down.
― What do you mean by chaos coming?
― Soon, monsters will appear and try to kill and destroy everything.
― To put it simply, there are even monsters called ‘Dragons’.
At the reporter’s question, the angel and demon answered with grim expressions.
Th i s w a s c o p i e d f ro m k i n gmt l . o r g
― ……Monsters?
― There are monsters among them that are immune to even ‘nuclear weapons’, so we are urging you to become believers as soon as possible.
― In short, you can’t hunt monsters without Holy Power, Mana, or Demonic Energy.
It seemed they had done some research before coming to Earth, as they even mentioned ‘nuclear weapons’ while emphasizing the danger of monsters.
‘This is getting exciting.’
Jung Minwoo found the situation unfolding in a more interesting way than he expected and watched the television intently.
Woong—
A portal appeared in the air, and……
Thud, thud, thud—
A figure began to walk out of it.
‘Hmm?’
And the figure was someone Jung Minwoo knew well.
It was Baal, the 1st ranked Demon Lord.
Baal had suddenly appeared at the samgyeopsal restaurant.
