The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 296
Chapter 296: Absolute God (1)
Looking at the Jungsinwal groaning as they lay prostrate on the floor.
‘……Crazy.’
Jung Minwoo couldn’t help but be amazed by the fraudulent nature of the ‘Restriction’ unique trait.
‘This is the effect even at its weakest?’
He wondered how strong it would be at its maximum, but.
‘I can’t use the maximum on the Jungsinwal.’
He decided to use it directly on the Ancient God, as it seemed like the Jungsinwal would suffer great damage if he did.
‘By the way, they’re completely immobile.’
Jung Minwoo crouched down and examined the Jungsinwal carefully.
“Ugh…… why can’t I move?!”
“It’s hard enough just to speak. Ribbit, ribbit.”
“Is this what divine power is like……”
T h i s w as c o p ie d f ro m k i n g m t l . o r g
Only the high-ranking Jungwang were able to speak with difficulty, while the lower-ranking Jungwang could only open and close their mouths.
‘If the Jungwang are like this, ordinary Jungsinwal must be struggling to even breathe.’
Of course, being immortal, they wouldn’t die from not being able to breathe.
“Is there anyone here who can move?”
At Jung Minwoo’s question.
“Uwaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
Anubis, perhaps taking it as a provocation, let out a shout and struggled to move her body.
Twitch―
However, despite the loud shout, only her finger twitched.
“Oh my……”
As if embarrassed that only her finger could twitch, Anubis blushed.
“Pfft! Ribbit, ribbit.”
Rok, who was watching from the side, burst into laughter, finding the situation amusing.
“……Rok.”
“Huh? Why? Ribbit, ribbit.”
“Get ready to spar later.”
“……”
“Answer.”
“Ah, alright. Ribbit, ribbit.”
At the mention of sparring, Rok’s face turned sullen, as if he had never laughed.
“Lucifer, can’t you move either?”
Jung Minwoo moved to Lucifer and asked.
“……Huff!”
Twitch, twitch―
Th is wa s c opi e d fr o m k i n g m t l .or g
Lucifer twitched two fingers.
“It seems difficult.”
He looked at the Jungsinwal lying on the floor for a moment.
“Aren’t you using your unique traits?”
Then, with a puzzled expression, he asked why they weren’t using their unique traits.
“We can’t use them.”
Lucifer’s answer made him realize that even unique traits were restricted.
‘To restrict even unique traits…… That’s insane!’
Jung Minwoo was convinced that he could inflict fatal damage on the Ancient God with the restriction on unique traits.
‘I want to try it on other gods, but…… it’s a shame there’s no one to use it on.’
He thought Masin might agree if he asked, but.
‘That could disrupt the plan I’ve set up.’
Even if he could silence them through a contract, he wouldn’t be able to avoid Cheonsin’s suspicion.
‘Now that I know the Restriction effect is broken, shall I release it?’
Jung Minwoo released the ‘Restriction’ as there was no point in joint training with this opponent.
“””Huff, huff, huff!”””
As the restriction was lifted, the Jungsinwal took deep breaths and rose from their positions.
“I won’t use Restriction, so try attacking again.”
He gestured for the Jungsinwal to attack.
“I’ll avenge the humiliation I just suffered!”
Anubis was the first to charge again.
“””Let’s go!!!”””
The Jungsinwal behind her also followed, charging forward.
This time, with a more determined look on their faces.
If they had felt excited about the fact that they could fight a god before, now they were filled with determination to inflict even a tiny scratch on him.
“Haaap!”
Anubis, who had reached him, swung her greatsword down.
“Good spirit, but that’s not enough. You have to attack with the intent to kill.”
Jung Minwoo raised his right hand and.
Snap―
He snapped his fingers.
Thud―!
Grey energy spread from his fingers, and.
Crash―
All the Jungsinwal were blown away.
“””Cough, cough, cough!”””
As if he had inflicted internal injuries along with the impact, the Jungsinwal coughed up blood.
‘No one’s down.’
The damage seemed significant, but none of them collapsed, as expected from those ranked among the top 101.
‘Should I increase the intensity a bit more?’
Jung Minwoo snapped his fingers again, putting more force into it.
Crash―
This time, they couldn’t withstand it. All the Jungsinwal collapsed to the floor and fainted.
‘Fainting from this level of shock…… I need to make the training tougher.’
Jung Minwoo thought he needed to push them harder as they needed to be stronger than this to face the Ancient God.
Th is w a s c o p i ed f ro m k i n g mt l . or g
After the Jungsinwal woke up, Jung Minwoo immediately resumed the training.
Time passed, and there was only a week left before the Jungcheonma.
‘Now that there’s only a week left, I should go to Earth, right?’
Although the Jungcheonma had become meaningless due to Cheonsin’s scheme, he still needed to visit Earth himself to judge the level of the Believers and Demon Servants and determine the winner to deceive Cheonsin.
‘My family said they’re free, so I can spend some time with them before starting work.’
T h is was co p i ed f r o m k i n g m t l .o r g
Jung Minwoo immediately opened a portal and moved to Earth.
Arriving at the religious order on Earth.
T h i s w a s c op ied f rom k i n g m t l . o r g
“Lord Jungsin, you have arrived!”
“””You have arrived!!!”””
The Believers prostrated themselves and greeted him.
‘Hmm?’
Jung Minwoo tilted his head at the sight and.
“Did you know I was coming?”
He asked the Believer at the front.
“No. We have been waiting here for your arrival.”
Jung Minwoo was taken aback by the Believer’s answer.
‘You’ve been waiting here……?’
He had thought they had been tipped off by his family, but they had been waiting here the whole time?
He could feel their sincere devotion to him.
He checked to see if they were lying, but it wasn’t a lie.
‘I wasn’t planning on taking care of the Believers, but…… with this level of devotion, I can’t just ignore them.’
As a god, he couldn’t stand idly by while they followed him so fervently.
‘Even though my influence on Earth is absolute, the Believers are different.’
T hi s w a s c o p i e d f r om k i n g m tl . org
From the moment he became a god, the humans on Earth were eager to bow their heads to him.
However, it was different for the Believers.
‘It felt like Cheonsin’s Believers were treated better.’
Therefore, Jung Minwoo planned to bestow power upon them.
T h i s w a s c o p i e d f ro m k i n g m t l . or g
‘It wouldn’t be bad to maintain order in the world through them.’
It seemed like a good idea to give them the role of mediating and managing those who followed Cheonsin and Masin.
‘I just need to give appropriate power to those who will manage.’
Looking at the people in the religious order, there were roughly 1,000 of them.
He would accept this number for now, and those who wanted to join later could take a test.
“Hwang Cheolmin.”
T h i s w as c op i e d fr o m k ing m tl. o r g
Jung Minwoo checked the information through Heaven’s Eye and called the name of the Believer at the front.
“Ah……! I am so moved that you called my name!!”
He trembled and showed a face full of joy.
Jung Minwoo was slightly flustered by his strong reaction for a moment, but.
“I appoint you as the Pope of the Jungsin Cult.”
He quickly regained his composure and bestowed power upon Hwang Cheolmin.
“I leave it to you, the Pope, to bestow power upon the Believers behind you.”
“L-Leave it to me!”
Thud―!
Hwang Cheolmin answered in a booming voice, bowing his head to the floor.
“What you have to do is simple.”
“W-We will listen attentively!”
“Maintain order in the world.”
“……Order in the world.”
“As those who maintain order, integrity is a given. Anyone corrupt or abusing their power will be struck by the divine hammer.”
They might have been scared by the mention of being struck by a hammer, but.
“To think you trust us and give us such an important task!”
“I must be dreaming.”
“We must repay your faith!”
They began to praise him with eyes like fanatics.
‘Hmm…… I don’t think they’ll have any other thoughts.’
Seeing their appearance, it didn’t seem like they would have any other thoughts, but.
‘It’s better to take precautions in advance.’
He decided to take measures beforehand as people could change once they gained power.
Whoosh―.
Jung Minwoo placed a restriction on the members of the ‘Jungsin Cult’ that would make them commit suicide if they became corrupt or abused their power.
One might ask if it wouldn’t work on new Believers, but.
‘Since I’ve placed the restriction on the energy itself, even new Believers will be subject to the same restriction.’
That wouldn’t happen.
When Jung Minwoo informed them that they would commit suicide if they became corrupt or abused their power.
“To think that great power comes with responsibility, thank you so much for teaching us this lesson! We will enshrine your teachings as doctrine!”
“How righteous!”
“Indeed! We are so grateful that you have taken precautions to prevent us from going astray!”
“We believe it is a natural measure!”
They began to praise him again with wide eyes.
‘……It feels like they’ll praise anything I say……’
He felt like they would believe him even if he said beans were made of red beans.
‘This is getting a bit scary……’
They seemed fanatical, but from a different perspective, it meant they were enthusiastic, so he decided to think positively.
‘Yes, thinking of it as enthusiasm makes it look a bit different.’
Thinking differently, they looked like trustworthy Believers.
Actually, they didn’t look like that, but he was trying to see them that way.
‘I have to go see my family now, so I’ll just give them orders and leave.’
Jung Minwoo cleared his throat and.
T his w as co p i e d f ro m k i n gm t l . o r g
“Jungsin Cult, listen!”
He shouted to the Believers in a dignified voice.
“””Yes!”””
The Believers knelt on one knee and answered in a loud voice.
“From now on, move to maintain order in the world!”
“””As you command!”””
The Believers nodded vigorously and.
Jump―
They rose from their positions, opened the door, and went outside.
‘I gave them the order, but will they be able to do it well?’
He was a bit worried if they could pull it off as maintaining order in the world was quite a broad concept.
‘I gave them power, so they’ll do well.’
If it didn’t work out, he could help them, so Jung Minwoo decided to stop paying attention to this matter.
‘Let’s see, where is my family?’
Jung Minwoo searched for his family’s energy before leaving.
The location where he sensed their energy was the National Assembly Building.
‘I thought they’d be at home, but this is unexpected.’
He had thought they would have left work early since they said they were free, but it was a bit strange that they were still at the National Assembly Building past 6 p.m.
‘Did something happen?’
Jung Minwoo wondered whether to wait at home or go to the National Assembly Building.
‘Waiting isn’t my style, so I’ll go find them.’
The politicians would be happy to meet a god, so they would welcome his visit.
‘Should I go straight to the National Assembly Building?’
He left the religious order and moved, arriving in front of the National Assembly Building in an instant.
Perhaps because he lived in a building similar to the National Assembly Building in Junggye, it felt like he was going home.
T h i s w a s c o p i ed f ro m k i n g mtl .o r g
‘Where is my family?’
He followed their energy and.
‘There they are.’
He spotted his family chatting with other politicians in the hallway.
Just as he was about to approach his family.
“So, you’re saying there are signs of war breaking out in other countries?”
“Yes, it’s being kept top secret, but it seems like a war will break out soon.”
He overheard them talking about something very interesting.
‘War…… Should I listen in?’
Jung Minwoo stopped approaching and listened to their conversation.
