The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 285
Chapter 285: Earth (5)
“What brings you here?”
At Baal’s appearance, Satan frowned and asked about the reason for his visit.
“I’m not here for you, Demon Lord, so please mind your own business.”
Baal answered Satan’s question curtly, then……
“Jungshin-nim, I seek your audience!”
Thud!
He abruptly approached where Jung Minwoo was sitting and knelt down.
“……What’s this about?”
Taken aback by the sudden action, Jung Minwoo looked at Baal with a puzzled expression.
“I know I’ve been acting distasteful. But I had no choice but to do so to survive amongst such fierce competitors!”
Excuses followed.
‘Oh, this is a classic perpetrator’s excuse, isn’t it?’
T h i s w as co p i e d f r o m k i ngm t l . o r g
It was similar to the excuses perpetrators used to make in the news in the past.
“I apologize for my actions. Please, forgive me with your magnanimous heart.”
Thump—!
As if this wasn’t enough, Baal bowed his head to the floor, begging for forgiveness.
‘Judging by his actions, it seems Masin gave him a hint.’
T h i s w as c o p ied f r o m ki ngmt l . o r g
If it was Masin, he would know that Jung Minwoo disliked Baal.
That’s why he must have given him one last chance to directly seek forgiveness.
‘Hmm.’
Jung Minwoo looked at Baal for a moment.
‘But…… is there anything for me to forgive?’
He wondered if he actually harbored enough resentment to warrant an apology.
After all,
‘I just wanted to get him out of the way because he seemed like a nuisance.’
Even though his thoughts were disrespectful, Baal had never caused him any direct harm.
If anyone had suffered, it was Baal, not Jung Minwoo.
‘And the Celestial-Demonic War is not going to happen anymore.’
Even though his resentment wasn’t deep, honestly, he wanted to kill Baal just because he was an eyesore.
In other words, it wasn’t enough to warrant an apology, but he still wanted to kill him.
T his w a s co p ie d f rom k i n g m t l . or g
‘Should I just kill him?’
Now that he was a god, there wouldn’t be any problems even if he killed him.
‘Now is the perfect opportunity.’
With his head bowed to the floor, Baal’s neck was nicely exposed.
Jung Minwoo fell into thought for a moment.
‘It would be better to hear my father-in-law’s opinion before deciding.’
As a result of his contemplation, he decided to follow Satan’s opinion.
“Father-in-law, what should I do?”
When he asked Satan for his opinion……
“It wouldn’t matter if you forgave him, would it?”
T h i s wa s c o p i e d from ki ng m t l . o rg
Unlike before, he spoke with a face devoid of animosity, suggesting forgiveness.
“Is there a reason?”
“He’s unpleasant, but he’s no longer a threat.”
That was true.
Since Satan and Lilith had been appointed as ‘Junga’, no matter what Baal tried, he couldn’t defeat them.
Currently, the difference between them was like heaven and earth.
“There was a huge gap before, but now the gap has widened to the point where I could subdue him with a single finger.”
Since the power gap was so vast, Baal would appear as insignificant as a fly.
‘Oh, wasn’t he a fly in the first place?’
Jung Minwoo decided to forgive Baal according to Satan’s will.
T hi s w a s c o p ied f ro m ki n g m t l . o r g
‘As long as I don’t appoint him as Junga, that’s all that matters.’
If he wasn’t appointed as Junga, he would naturally be eliminated and pushed aside.
‘And even if I do appoint him, I can just give more power to Satan and Lilith.’
Having made up his mind, Jung Minwoo said,
“I don’t know if there’s anything to forgive, but I’ll forgive you.”
He told Baal that he would forgive him.
“Thank you!”
Thump, thump, thump!
As if he hadn’t expected to be forgiven so easily, Baal expressed his gratitude by repeatedly banging his head on the floor.
“We’re having a family meal, so please leave now.”
“Yes, sir!”
Baal repeatedly expressed his gratitude and left the samgyeopsal restaurant.
Fortunately, he had bowed his head within the barrier he had erected, preventing the floor from shaking.
‘If I hadn’t put up the barrier, people would have mistaken it for an earthquake.’
When Jung Minwoo turned his attention back to the television……
― This concludes the news.
Unfortunately, the news had ended.
“Son…… who was that demon just now?”
As he was about to pick up a piece of meat, his father asked him a question.
“That was a demon named Baal.”
“Baal……”
When he answered, his father tilted his head and said,
“He looks a bit different from what I expected.”
“Looks?”
“I thought he would be in the form of a fly, but he was in the form of an old man.”
He expressed his puzzlement at the demon’s appearance, which differed from the descriptions in the literature.
“That’s his true form.”
Descriptions of appearances varied from one piece of literature to another, so they weren’t reliable.
When he kindly explained this……
“I see.”
His father nodded, seemingly satisfied with the answer.
‘Since we’re talking about demons, should I ask them which side they want to join?’
Now that he knew his power acted as a kind of amplifier, his family needed to belong to either the Celestial Realm or the Demon World in order to increase their own power.
When he asked them where they wanted to belong……
“Even so, wouldn’t the Demon World be better? Since our son is there.”
“Indeed, it seems like it would be easier to be with the Demon World.”
“I heard that it takes quite a long time to gain power as an angel. In that case, it’s better to belong to the Demon World where demons are.”
Their answers were unexpected.
“Then should we make a contract right away?”
It was unexpected, but it was a wise decision.
Afterwards, Jung Minwoo made contracts with his family and gave them a generous amount of power.
“””Whoa……”””
His family now had enough power to subdue a dragon with one hand.
Their lack of combat experience was a flaw, but they could overwhelm their opponents with their overwhelming power.
While their power was insufficient against angels and demons, no one on Earth would be able to harm his family, so there wouldn’t be any dangerous situations.
After corrupting his family……
‘Come to think of it, it’s been a while since I’ve seen the higher beings I corrupted.’
He suddenly remembered the higher beings he had corrupted in the past.
‘According to the reports, they’ve been continuing their planetary invasions.’
Since they had been invading planets non-stop, he assumed their power must have increased tremendously compared to before.
‘I need to appoint them as Jungin, so I should make time for them.’
He thought he would visit them once Earth stabilized.
After the meal……
“Shall we go home?”
Jung Minwoo returned home with his family and rested.
Thi s w a s c o p i ed f ro m k i n g m t l. o r g
A month later.
Jung Minwoo had been quite busy for the past month.
Th i s w a s c o pi ed fr o m ki n gm t l . or g
He ate the food he wanted to eat and visited the places he wanted to go.
He also spent time with acquaintances he hadn’t seen in a while.
Since he didn’t need to hide the fact that he had become a god, he exuded an aura of a transcendental being, and as a result……
A new religion that followed him emerged and established itself as a new religious movement.
Most of the believers were of Korean descent.
Perhaps because they were drawn to the fact that a Korean human had become a demon and then ascended to godhood, 80% of the believers were Korean.
And thanks to ‘Sayori’, 20% of the believers were Japanese.
While the new religious movement was emerging, angels and demons were also diligently expanding their forces.
What was somewhat surprising was that, contrary to expectations, many humans had made contracts with demons.
There was a valid reason for this: while those who already had a religion had strong faith and could wield powerful strength……
Those without a religion had no faith in God, so even if they joined the religion, it was difficult for them to handle holy power.
Therefore, they ended up making contracts with demons, who could grant them power immediately upon signing a contract.
As a result, the forces of angels and demons were evenly split.
One might raise concerns about religious people persecuting non-believers, but fortunately, that didn’t happen.
It wasn’t that there were no signs of such a thing, but Cheonsin personally intervened to prevent it.
Since Jung Minwoo was also a former demon, Cheonsin didn’t want to provoke him unnecessarily.
Religious people followed Cheonsin’s will and got along well with non-believers, cooperating with them.
Just as he was going about his daily life as usual……
Monsters appeared.
Believers and Demon Servants were gathered, waiting in front of a portal.
“Kieeek!”
And after confirming the monster that emerged from the portal……
“It’s a goblin!”
They reported the situation through a walkie-talkie.
― Goblin confirmed, eliminate it immediately.
Upon receiving the order to kill……
“””We’ve received orders to kill!”””
People rushed towards the goblins.
Thwack!
The humans who had become Demon Servants used their overwhelming power to eliminate the goblins.
“Turn to ashes and disappear!”
Boom!
Some talented individuals had mastered the use of demonic energy and were hunting goblins with powers akin to magic.
Slash!
Those who had been professional athletes before becoming Demon Servants were killing goblins at an almost superhuman speed.
One might wonder how they could kill without hesitation, despite it being their first time taking a life, but……
Becoming a Demon Servant reduced their aversion to killing, and more importantly……
They knew that if they didn’t kill, they would be killed, so killing without hesitation was the biggest reason.
While the Demon Servants were hunting goblins……
“With the power of light!”
“May God protect us!”
“Bring down the hammer on the monsters!”
Believers were also killing goblins with their overwhelming power.
Although it had only been a month, priests and paladins hadn’t been trained yet, but they were able to hunt goblins because they had an advantage in terms of elemental affinity.
Just as they were hunting monsters smoothly without any casualties……
“Kuweeek!”
A group of orcs emerged from the portal.
T hi s wa s co p i e d f r o m k ing m t l . o r g
They were still too strong for the humans to handle.
They tried to retreat, hoping to fight another day, but……
“Kwik, kwik!”
The orcs swiftly surrounded them.
“……Oh dear.”
It was a desperate situation where everyone could potentially die.
“Today’s special! Kuweeek!”
The orc that appeared to be the leader raised its axe and charged towards the humans.
Just as it was about to swing its axe and strike a human’s head……
“You’re getting too cocky for a mere insect.”
Thwack.
The head of the supposed leader orc exploded.
Thwack, thwack, thwack, thwack, thwack, thwack, thwack, thwack, thwack, thwack, thwack, thwack, thwack, thwack……
And not only that, the heads of the orcs that were surrounding them also exploded simultaneously.
“Wh-what?”
“Wh-what’s going on?”
People were bewildered by the sudden turn of events and looked around……
“Is everyone okay?”
“Nobody’s hurt, right?”
“They seem fine.”
Three figures appeared.
They were Jung Minwoo’s children: Jung Garam, Jung Hanna, and Jung Hongju.
“””Wow……”””
People stared at them, forgetting to answer, captivated by their beautiful appearances.
“It seems like they’re fine.”
“They don’t look injured.”
“Then shall we go somewhere else?”
After confirming that no one was hurt, the children turned their backs without hesitation and left.
T h i s w a s c o p i e d f r o m k i n gm t l . o rg
The people, who had been in a daze for a while……
“Ah…… we didn’t get to ask their names.”
T h i s wa s c o p i e d fr o m k i n g m tl . o r g
“That’s right……”
“To let our benefactors go like this……”
They expressed deep regret for not asking for their names.
“Weren’t they ‘Jungshin’s children?”
Fortunately, someone recognized them and took out their phone to search.
“They are!”
They showed the people the photos and told them that they were indeed Jungshin’s children.
“Goodness, ‘Jungshin’-nim’s children are truly magnanimous.”
Those whose lives had been saved were captivated by the power of Jung Garam, Jung Hanna, and Jung Hongju, and a fan club was created that day.
