The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 299

Chapter 299: Absolute God (4)

In the midst of the sudden attack, the angels were being killed off helplessly, unable to mount a proper counterattack.

“Everyone, pull yourselves together!”

“Counterattack!”

Soon, they regained their senses and began to charge at the Jung Sinhawal.

Slash――――――Swoosh!

“””Ugh?!”””

However, perhaps due to the vast difference in skill, even when they counterattacked, they were still being killed off just as easily.

“Why is this so pathetic?”

Satan waved his hand once.

“””Ugh?!”””

Tens of thousands of angels perished.

Every time the other Jung Sinhawal swung their weapons, a similar number of angels died, causing the number of angels in the Celestial Realm to rapidly dwindle.

As this one-sided battle, no, this one-sided violence, continued……

‘Where is Cheonsin?’

Jung Minwoo was spreading his energy widely to search for Cheonsin.

‘Judging by the fact that I can’t sense his energy, he must be inside a barrier.’

It seemed likely that Cheonsin was within that mansion, layered with multiple barriers.

‘There’s no need to go looking for him.’

Jung Minwoo decided to wait for Cheonsin to come out, arms crossed.

‘He’ll come out on his own if I wait.’

If Cheonsin didn’t come out, only angels would die, so Jung Minwoo had nothing to lose.

‘Actually, going into that mansion would be a disadvantage for me.’

He didn’t know what tricks were hidden within the barrier, so there was a risk of being attacked.

When almost all the angels in the Celestial Realm were nearly wiped out……

Clang―

A window shattered in the mansion protected by the barrier, and a figure emerged.

Thi s w a s cop i e d f r o m k i n gmt l . o rg
‘He’s finally showing himself.’

That figure was none other than Cheonsin.

‘He looks like a mess.’

His hair was extremely disheveled, making it clear that he wasn’t in a good state.

“Jung Minwoo!!!”

Cheonsin flew toward him at a terrifying speed, his eyes burning with madness.

‘Should I prepare for an attack?’

Jung Minwoo adjusted his posture, assuming a combat-ready stance.

As Cheonsin approached within striking distance……

‘Should I just throw a light punch as a taste?’

He was gathering his energy to throw a punch when……

Thud―

Instead of attacking, Cheonsin stopped right in front of him.

“You’re not going to attack?”

Th i s w a s c o p i e d f r om k i n gm t l .org
“I have something to ask first.”

“What is it?”

“Why, why did you attack the Celestial Realm?”

At her question, Jung Minwoo let out a chuckle.

“You really don’t know?”

He responded as if telling her to stop pretending.

“……I don’t know.”

“Really?”

“I said I don’t know!!”

“You should know.”

Since it seemed like they were going to just argue endlessly, Jung Minwoo decided to be the first to speak.

“Do you think I wouldn’t know about your attempt to kill me?”

“……W-what are you talking about?”

“You planned to kill me by releasing the Ancient God’s seal.”

Perhaps because he spoke with such certainty……

“How did you know?”

Cheonsin didn’t deny it, instead asking how he had figured it out.

“Why should I tell the pigeon who tried to pull a dirty trick on me?”

“……”

Grind―

Unable to refute his words, Cheonsin gritted her teeth and glared at him in frustration.

“Then just answer me one thing.”

“What?”

“……Was Mikael your pawn?”

“What nonsense are you talking about?”

“You, you seduced Mikael and made him your pawn!!”

“I never did anything like that. What in the world are you talking about?”

At her incomprehensible words, he told her to stop with the delusions.

“No! Mikael is definitely your pawn!”

She completely denied his words, then……

“Die!!!”

She pulled out her mace and charged at him.

‘She’s really worked up.’

He didn’t understand why she was so agitated, but……

‘It’s not a bad thing for me.’

When someone is agitated, their movements become larger, inevitably revealing openings, making it a favorable situation for Jung Minwoo.

Whoosh――――Woosh!

Cheonsin swung her mace.

Slide―

Jung Minwoo easily dodged the attack simply by tilting his head to the left.

‘Her movements are too big.’

Her wide swings exposed her waist.

“One hit to start.”

Jung Minwoo infused his fist with Junggi and struck Cheonsin’s waist.

Boom―――――――――――――――――――――Bang!

“Gasp!”

A tremendous impact sound echoed.

Rumble―Crash

As expected of a god, the ground shook and cracked just from a hit to her waist.

Thud―

“Two hits.”

He chased after Cheonsin, who had tumbled to the ground, and punched her in the face.

Boom―――――――――――――――――――――Bang!

“Cough!”

Cheonsin’s face caved in, blood spraying out.

‘This is too easy.’

Puzzled by Cheonsin’s inability to fight back, Jung Minwoo didn’t stop his fists.

Boom―Bang, Boom―Bang, Boom―Bang, Boom―Bang, Boom―Bang, Boom―Bang, Boom―Bang, Boom―Bang……

After landing hundreds of millions of hits in a single second……

“Pant…… Now I’m finally coming to my senses.”

T h i s w as c o p ie d fro m k i n gm t l . or g
Cheonsin muttered to herself, and then……
T h i s w a s c opi e d f ro m k i n gm t l .o r g

Flash―

A bright light began to envelop her body.

Step, Step―

Sensing something ominous, Jung Minwoo quickly backed away.

Soon, the light dissipated……

Flutter―

Cheonsin reappeared.

‘Her wounds are healed.’

Seeing her fully recovered, Jung Minwoo thought that this fight might actually drag on.

Swish―

Cheonsin raised her mace high and……

“I, Cheonsin, will fight you with all my strength!”

She declared that she would now fight him seriously.

“God’s Judgment!!!”

Then, the clouds covering the sky parted in two……

Fwoosh―――――――――――――――――
T h i s w a s c o p ied fro m ki ng mt l . o rg

Hundreds of millions of maces made of light appeared.

“Die!!!”

As Cheonsin slammed her mace down……

Whoosh――――――――――Swoosh!

The hundreds of millions of light maces rained down upon Jung Minwoo.

‘This has some serious power.’

He could feel immense power condensed within each individual mace.

‘This could be fatal if I’m not careful.’

Jung Minwoo looked up at the sky, and then……

‘Should I use my unique trait too?’

He decided to use the unique trait he had been deliberately holding back.

‘Helper, which unique trait should I use to block that attack without taking any damage?’

He summoned Helper, who responded……
T h i s wa s c o p i ed f r om k i ng m tl . o r g

【There is no unique trait that can completely block that attack.】

Helper replied that there wasn’t such a unique trait.

‘Then, is there a unique trait that allows me to perfectly dodge the attack?’

【You can dodge all attacks without taking any damage using Brain Eye.】

‘Is that all?’

【Using any other unique trait would be considered a waste of Junggi.】

Jung Minwoo was thinking of using other unique traits in conjunction, but it seemed like Helper judged that to be a waste of Junggi.

‘Did I overestimate Cheonsin?’

Since Helper had excellent analytical skills, he decided to accept his advice and dodge using Brain Eye.

‘What do you think about interfering with her mind and killing her?’

Moving on to the next topic, he asked for Helper’s opinion.

【She has weak combat abilities but high recovery. I judge that there is no other way but to kill her within her mind. I agree with your idea.】

It seemed like Helper had the same thought, agreeing to kill her through 심안.

‘Alright, let’s proceed with this plan.’

As he finished his conversation with Helper……

Whoosh―Swoosh!

The light maces were right in front of him.

‘If I delay any longer, I’ll get hit.’

He immediately activated Brain Eye.

Thump―

With a feeling of his head clearing, the world began to slow down.

Step, Step, Step―

Jung Minwoo leisurely dodged the light maces, approaching Cheonsin.

Cheonsin’s expression morphed into one of shock.

Swish―

She stretched out her hand toward him in slow motion.

Whooooosh―

The light maces that had been embedded in the ground rose back into the air, slowly flying towards him.

‘She could control them too?’

It was a flawless attack.

Anyone else would have been unable to dodge and would have been pierced through, but……

‘Even if you control them, they can’t hit me if they’re this slow.’

In this world where time flowed slowly, only Jung Minwoo could move freely, so dodging wasn’t difficult at all.

Step, Step―

Jung Minwoo increased his speed, approaching right in front of Cheonsin.

“Let’s see how strong your mental strength is.”

He used 심안 to interfere with Cheonsin’s mind.

“……Where is this?”

Cheonsin was bewildered to find herself in an unfamiliar space, not the Celestial Realm.

“Don’t tell me…… a mindscape?”

T hi s was c op i e d f ro m k i n gm tl.o r g
However, it didn’t take long for Cheonsin to realize that this was a mindscape.

“……Did Jung Minwoo bring me here?”

Cheonsin, judging that there was nothing good to be gained by staying here, tried to escape the mindscape, but……

“What the……? Why can’t I escape?”

She couldn’t escape the mindscape due to a powerful restraining force.

“Damn it, how can I get out of here?”

As she looked around, searching for a way out……

“There are two ways to get out. Want to hear them?”

Jung Minwoo appeared from within the black fog.

“……What are they?”

“One is to get my permission to leave the mindscape.”

“……And the other?”

“To defeat me within this mindscape.”
T h i s w a s c o p i e d f r o m kin g mt l.or g

It seemed like he would never grant the first option, so the second seemed to be the only way out.

“Is that so……?”

Cheonsin adjusted her stance and……

“I’ll get out of here right now!”

Dash!

She charged towards Jung Minwoo.

Or rather, she was about to charge……

“……Why did you kill me?”

If Jung Minwoo hadn’t transformed into Mikael, that is.

Hesitation―

T hi s w a s c opi e d f ro m k i n g mt l. o r g
“Mikael?”

Cheonsin stopped her charge and stepped back.

“N-no! You’re not Mikael!”

She clearly saw Jung Minwoo transform into Mikael, but strangely, she couldn’t attack.

That was because the being standing before her felt like the real Mikael.

The reason for Cheonsin’s confusion was simple.

Jung Minwoo was quickly chipping away at her mental strength using Charm while she was in this unstable mental state.

“Why did you kill me?!”

“I, I thought you were Jung Minwoo’s pawn!”

“Didn’t I tell you I wasn’t!!”

“I, I thought you were lying!”

Jung Minwoo, no, Mikael, grabbed Cheonsin’s shoulders.

“I devoted my whole life to serving you, and you killed me just because you misunderstood?!”

He shed tears, appealing to her with his grievance.

“M-Mikael, I’m sorry. I’m so sorry……”

At his sight, Cheonsin’s barely-maintained mental strength completely shattered.

“I, I’m trash. Please kill me……”
T h i s w as co p i e d fro m k i n gm t l . o r g

Cheonsin brought her legs together and buried her face between them.

Then, she began to tremble, muttering incomprehensible words to herself.

And Jung Minwoo, watching her, thought……

‘This worked out more easily than I expected.’

He was satisfied with how easily he had subdued Cheonsin.

‘To think she would kill Mikael over something like that.’

He didn’t know the exact circumstances, but he could roughly grasp the situation from Cheonsin’s words.

‘This is the perfect opportunity to kill her.’

With her face buried between her legs, it was the perfect angle to slit her throat, but……

‘But it feels like a waste to just kill her like this.’

It felt a bit regrettable to kill her just like this.

‘If her mind is this broken, I think I could make her my puppet.’

If he coaxed her well, he might be able to recruit her as a subordinate through a contract.

Though calling it recruitment was essentially turning her into a slave.

‘If she comes under my command, I can manipulate her however I want.’

If she refused, he could just kill her right here.

‘Alright, let’s give it a shot.’

Jung Minwoo cleared his throat, then……

“……Do you want my forgiveness?”

He called out to Cheonsin in a voice filled with sorrow.

Swish―

Cheonsin raised her head.

“C-can I be forgiven?”

She asked with a desperate expression if she could be forgiven.

“If you grant me a favor.”

“Tell me anything. I’ll do it!”

“Go under Jung Minwoo’s command.”

“……What?”

“Otherwise, I don’t think I can forgive you.”

“B-but……”

“Go under Jung Minwoo’s command and reflect on killing me for the rest of your life.”

“Isn’t there any other way?”

“No, that’s the only way my anger will subside.”

It was incredibly illogical.

If she were in her right mind, she would notice the absurdity of this, but……

“If that will appease your anger, I’ll do it!”

Cheonsin, with her broken mind, couldn’t grasp such inconsistencies.

“Let’s make the contract right now.”

Mikael’s form transformed back into Jung Minwoo.

“Bleed onto this.”

He gave Cheonsin a parchment with the contract terms written on it, a sinister smile spreading across his face.

“Y-yes……”

Cheonsin, oblivious to his change in appearance, bled onto the parchment.

“Good job.”

Thus, Jung Minwoo unexpectedly gained Cheonsin as a subordinate.
