The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 297
Chapter 297: Absolute God (2)
T h i s w as c op i e d f r om k i ng m t l . o rg
After listening to the story,
he was able to find out that 10 countries had entered war preparations.
’10 countries are preparing for war simultaneously?’
Even as he listened, Jung Minwoo couldn’t understand why they were preparing for war.
As monsters overflowed, the world had joined forces.
Rather than fighting amongst themselves, protecting their countries against monsters was the priority.
And, the situation where lives were still being threatened by monsters.
In other words, circumstances were not favorable to harbor other thoughts.
T hi s w as c o pi ed f ro m k i ngm t l .o r g
‘It’s gotten better than before, but damage continues to occur, and stronger monsters are appearing.’
When a strong monster appeared, the country dispatched personnel to hunt it down.
‘In this situation where the whole world is barely holding on by joining forces, suddenly preparing for war……’
Jung Minwoo guessed that someone must have intervened in the abrupt war preparations.
‘I wonder who intervened.’
If it was humans scheming amongst themselves, it wouldn’t matter.
‘But if it’s the gods’ doing, it’s a different story.’
If Cheonsin and Masin were behind it, he wouldn’t let them get away with it.
Th is w as c op i ed f r o m king m t l . o r g
‘Even if it wasn’t the gods’ doing, I have to intervene, right?’
If war really broke out, that day would become the day of Earth’s destruction.
‘It’s where my family lives, I can’t let it be destroyed.’
Just as Jung Minwoo was about to ponder how to intervene,
“Minwoo, you’re here?”
His father called his name.
“Yes.”
T h i s w a s c o p ie d f r o m k in gm t l . or g
Jung Minwoo responded to his father’s call, thinking,
‘First, to solve the problem, I need to know why this is happening.’
He decided to ask his father why this situation had occurred.
As he moved and approached his family,
“It’s an honor to meet you, Jungshin-nim!”
“It’s a privilege to see your face.”
The politicians who were sitting together bowed their heads and greeted him.
“Yes, nice to meet you all.”
Jung Minwoo accepted the politicians’ greetings and said,
“By the way, could I hear more about the war?”
He immediately asked his father about the war.
“Haha, you heard?”
“Yes, somehow.”
His father laughed awkwardly and said,
“If it’s alright with you, councilmen, shall we move to a different location?”
He suggested to the National Assembly members that they move.
“Oh, of course.”
“Shall we move right away?”
Perhaps seeing it as a chance to get acquainted with him, the National Assembly members were delighted with his father’s suggestion and started walking ahead.
Later, after moving to a different location and hearing the story in more detail,
‘It seems like it really is Cheonsin’s doing……’
Jung Minwoo was convinced that Cheonsin was behind it.
It was because,
a large number of reports had been captured showing that the followers of Cheonsin were plotting something.
‘What is he planning to do by starting a war?’
Jung Minwoo fell into thought to figure out Cheonsin’s intentions.
‘Looking at the state of preparations, it seems like it will be over in a few days…… and coincidentally, Jungcheonma is taking place in a few days……’
The puzzle pieces were falling into place.
‘That bastard, he’s scheming, isn’t he?’
Having grasped Cheonsin’s intentions, Jung Minwoo showed a deep smile.
‘He’s determined to kill me.’
Anger surged at Cheonsin’s actions, and he wanted to go and break his neck right now.
‘He’s planning to start a war on the day of Jungcheonma, make me intervene on Earth, and then send the Ancient God to kill me. He’s put some thought into this.’
In other words, he intended to kill him through a surprise attack.
‘Phew…… It’s a good thing I found out about this in advance.’
If he hadn’t paid attention as he had seen in the future, it could have been really dangerous.
‘It seems like the future has changed because I postponed the Jungcheonma period.’
He could easily guess that the future had changed due to the postponement.
‘Since I postponed it, I gave Cheonsin time to prepare. It’s only natural for the future to change.’
Jung Minwoo was troubled about how to respond to this.
T h i s w a s c o p i e d f r o m k i n g m t l . o r g
‘Even if I stop the war, if the Ancient God attacks Earth, I’ll have to go.’
He could stop the war by simply ordering them not to fight, but the Ancient God was the problem.
‘Earth is my domain, but the problem is that I can’t exert as much power there as I can in Junggye. And there’s a lot to protect.’
It would be great if the Ancient God headed straight for Junggye, but that seemed highly unlikely.
‘If I fight on Earth, I won’t be able to use my full power, so I’ll be forced to lose……’
As a result of searching for a way to overcome this situation, Jung Minwoo concluded,
‘In that case, I have no choice but to strike first.’
In the end, he made the decision to strike first.
‘It’s not a method I particularly like, but there’s no other way.’
He formulated a plan to unseal the Ancient God, bring him to Junggye, and kill him.
‘To do that, I need to explain the situation to Masin and ask for his cooperation.’
Also, he was thinking of asking if he wouldn’t be able to unseal the Ancient God forever if he killed Cheonsin, and then decide whether to kill him or not.
‘To bring the Ancient God to Junggye, I just need to make a contract with him on the condition of unsealing him.’
Moreover, if he could just subdue Cheonsin, he could stop the war on Earth without having to bother with ordering them to stop.
‘Alright. Let’s proceed with this.’
With that thought, Jung Minwoo said,
“Thank you for telling me the story.”
He expressed his gratitude to the National Assembly members who had shared the information and said,
“Something urgent has come up, so I’ll have to go now.”
Saying that he needed to see his family, he greeted them and immediately returned to Junggye.
As soon as he returned to Junggye, Jung Minwoo did one thing.
“He refused to come?”
He had called for Cheonsin to come to Junggye.
“Yes, I requested his presence for a personal announcement about Jungcheonma, but he declined, saying he was busy.”
He had planned to subdue Cheonsin if he accepted, but he ultimately didn’t visit.
“Well, it doesn’t matter. Then contact Masin and tell him to come.”
Jung Minwoo wasn’t particularly disappointed, as he had already expected Cheonsin to refuse.
‘After all, asking him to come was just an excuse to meet with Masin alone.’
Now, even if Masin visited Junggye, Cheonsin wouldn’t find it strange.
“I’ll contact him right away.”
The Head Butler said he would contact Masin and left the office.
About 10 minutes passed.
“You called for me?”
Masin entered the office.
“Welcome.”
Jung Minwoo offered Masin a seat and then,
Whirr-
He cast thousands of layers of barriers.
Before, it had been hundreds of layers, but he was being extra cautious just in case.
“Thousands of layers of barriers…… You’re being quite careful with security, aren’t you?”
“Yes, what I’m about to tell you would be troublesome if it leaked out.”
Masin looked puzzled for a moment at Jung Minwoo’s words, but soon,
“Cheonsin is trying to unseal the Ancient God.”
His expression changed to one of shock.
“How did you know that?”
“I saw the future.”
“……”
“He was planning to use Baal to unseal him.”
At the following words,
“……So that’s why you postponed Jungcheonma.”
Like a true god, Masin immediately grasped the reason for postponing Jungcheonma.
“Yes, it did change the future, but his intention to kill me remains the same, so I plan to attack before I’m attacked.”
“Tsk, Cheonsin is finally crossing the line.”
Masin frowned at Cheonsin’s scheme and let out a deep sigh.
“Before we attack Cheonsin, I have a few questions for you, Masin-nim.”
“Ask away.”
“If Cheonsin dies, will we be unable to unseal the Ancient God?”
“If Cheonsin dies, one seal disappears, so there won’t be any problem unsealing him.”
At Masin’s words, Jung Minwoo decided to kill Cheonsin.
“Then can you help me unseal him?”
“Unseal him? Wouldn’t it be better to just leave him be?”
“Since the seal is not perfect, I think it would be better to eliminate a potential variable.”
“That’s certainly the safer way. Alright, I’ll help you unseal him.”
“Thank you.”
Now that he had secured cooperation, all that was left was to put the plan into action.
“But when do you plan to make your move?”
At Masin’s question,
“Now.”
He answered with a sinister smile.
“……Now?”
“Yes, now is the perfect time for a surprise attack.”
Jung Minwoo closed his eyes and said,
【Listen, Jung Sinhawal】
He sent a telepathic message to the Jung Sinhawal in Junggye.
【I have captured evidence of Cheonsin’s scheme to kill me. As a god, I cannot stand idly by. Everyone, arm yourselves immediately.】
He told them to prepare for battle right away.
【Once you’re armed, gather in the streets.】
Jung Minwoo finished his message and asked,
“Masin-nim, will you come with me?”
He asked Masin if he would join him in attacking Cheonsin.
“……”
Masin pondered the offer for a moment.
“Alright.”
Masin nodded and stood up from his seat.
Jung Minwoo also stood up and said,
“Let’s go drive out the pigeons together.”
He held out his hand to Masin, offering a handshake.
“Let’s do that.”
Grasp—
Th i s was c o p i e d fr o m kingm tl. o r g
Masin clasped his outstretched hand and said,
“I’ll prepare my troops separately.”
He offered his support.
“Thank you.”
T h i s w a s co p i e d f r om k i ng m tl .org
Afterwards, Masin headed to the Demon World to prepare his troops.
“Shall we go out?”
Having received the report that they were armed and ready, Jung Minwoo walked out of the mansion.
T hi s wa s co p i e d fr o m ki n g m tl . o r g
Thud, thud, thud—
As he stepped outside the mansion,
Rumble—
He could see the Jung Sinhawal standing in the street, their faces grim, waiting for him.
‘Their killing intent is incredible.’
As all the Jung Sinhawal emitted a thick killing intent, a heat haze rose from the street.
Seeing them angry on his behalf made Jung Minwoo feel good.
‘They’re all angry for me.’
Feeling a sense of pride, he climbed onto the platform prepared in front of the mansion.
“You all heard my message, right?”
He then spoke, looking at the Jung Sinhawal.
“We’re going to invade the Celestial Realm and kill the pigeons and the pigeon god.”
When he said they were going to kill the pigeons, the Jung Sinhawal smiled sinisterly.
A smile just like Jung Minwoo’s.
Like god, like followers.
“If anyone is afraid of fighting the pigeons, you can leave now.”
T h i s w as c o p ie d f r om k in g m tl . or g
“””……”””
There were no Jung Sinhawal who left their positions, indicating that there were no cowards.
“Right, if you were a coward, you wouldn’t have become a Jung Sinhawal in the first place.”
Those who made a name for themselves in the Demon World.
T h i s w a s c o p ie d f rom k i n gm t l. o r g
Those who were exceptionally skilled.
Those who were full of competitive spirit.
Those who didn’t settle and strived to grow.
Only those who met these criteria were scouted and transformed into Jung Sinhawal, so there couldn’t be any cowards here.
Whoosh—
Jung Minwoo stepped down from the platform, opened a portal leading to the Celestial Realm, and said,
“Everyone, follow me!”
He walked into the portal without hesitation.
“They tried to harm our son-in-law? We can’t let that slide.”
“Let’s go show them what we’re made of.”
First, Satan and Lilith, who were at the forefront, followed him in.
“I’ve always wanted to catch him and kill the pigeons, so this is perfect.”
Behind them was Lucifer.
“I need to make him pay for what he did to my husband.”
“……I’m going to kill them all.”
“Hehe, he’s dug his own grave.”
Next were Venus, Elin, and Sayori.
“Ha! To think they would dare target my father, it’s absurd.”
“As his children, we can’t just stand by.”
“With that arrogant thought, the Celestial Realm will be destroyed today.”
Following them, Jung Garam, Jung Hanna, and Jung Hongju entered.
“Hehe, hunting pigeons sounds like fun.”
“A war…… This is exciting, ribbit, ribbit.”
“This is my first time hunting pigeons, I’m looking forward to it.”
Then, Anubis, Rok, and Roa went in.
The remaining Jung Sinhawal lined up and jumped into the portal.
Thus began the ‘Celestial-Junggye War (天中大戰)’.
