The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well - Chapter 91

Chapter 91: The Start of the Invasion (1)

“Hmm, so this is Dainik planet?”

Katra hummed as he surveyed his surroundings after arriving on ‘Dainik’ planet.

“It’s a bit bothersome that there are so many Pigeons, but it shouldn’t be a problem.”

He was confident that he would succeed in invading the planet, even if the presence of many Pigeons would be a nuisance.

“Before making Demon Servants, I should meet the young chicks first, right?”

Strategically, it would be more advantageous not to meet the newly graduated demons. However, Katra was curious about them and decided to meet them despite the potential penalty.

“It would be nice to give them some advice as a senior while I’m at it.”

Having decided on his destination, Katra headed straight for Pacon Kingdom.

After flapping his wings for about two hours, avoiding the Pigeons’ gaze.

Thi s w as c o pi e d fr o m k i n gm tl .o r g
“Hoo, this must be Pacon Kingdom.”

He arrived at Pacon Kingdom, marked by the flag with the sun emblem.

“Let’s see how well he’s managed it.”

As he entered Pacon Kingdom.

“Whew.”

Katra whistled in admiration.

“It’s well-managed.”

Most of the buildings were newly constructed, and the streets were bustling with activity.

“He must have obtained a decent Higher Being as a Demon Servant.”

Katra briefly explored the city before saying.

“Shall we go check on the soldiers now?”

He turned towards the royal palace.
T h is w as c o pi e d fr o m kin g m t l . o rg

“No matter how good the facilities are, it’s all for nothing if the national power is lacking.”

Upon entering and observing the soldiers in training.

“…The quality is quite good, isn’t it?”

He could see that they possessed considerable strength for ordinary soldiers.

After further inspecting the knights and mages.

“He raised the military power this much…?”

He witnessed a large number of Sword Masters and 8th Class mages stationed within the kingdom.

“As expected of the top graduate.”

Katra’s surprise was short-lived as he grinned with amusement.

“…Well, this is the level of preparation I expect after 20 years. It makes the competition more exciting, doesn’t it?”

If the preparations had been below his expectations, he wouldn’t have felt it was worth his time to compete.

“I’m quite curious to see what kind of person he is in person.”

T h i s w a s c opi e d fr o m ki n g m t l. o rg
As Katra wandered through the palace, his curiosity about Jung Minwoo grew.

‘…Found him!’

He spotted Jung Minwoo and the demons exiting the royal palace, just as he had seen them in the reports.

“Hey, young chicks~”

Feeling a sense of amusement, Katra approached them and called out a greeting.

Meanwhile, Jung Minwoo, upon hearing the demon’s greeting, frowned and identified the approaching figure.

‘Is that the 2nd Rank demon who was supposed to come?’ He was slightly taken aback, as he hadn’t expected the demon to arrive so soon.

‘Well, I’m grateful he came to me himself.’

T hi s wa s co p ied fr o m k i n g m t l . o r g
It was advantageous simply knowing that the demon had arrived on Dainik planet.

‘Let’s see what kind of Unique Trait he has then.’

He activated ‘Heaven’s Eye’ to check the information of the demon in front of him.

【Loading information on ‘Katra’】

A new information window popped up before his eyes.

『Information Window』

〈Basic Information〉

Name: Katra

Gender: Male

Age: 3,000 years old

〈Detailed Information〉

Rank: 2nd Rank

Alignment: Evil

Unique Trait: Eloquent Speaker

Current Emotion: Excitement

‘His Unique Trait is Eloquent Speaker…’ Jung Minwoo tapped on the Unique Trait to check its effects.

【Eloquent Speaker】

Speaks fluently and skillfully in any situation.

Also, has the effect of making illogical arguments sound plausible, and the effect is amplified when dealing with someone of lower Rank.

‘So he’s all talk?’

Although he assessed the demon as someone who was all talk, he couldn’t deny that the Unique Trait was highly specialized in creating Demon Servants.

In other words, it was a Unique Trait perfectly optimized for planetary invasion.

‘Well, no matter how optimized it is, it won’t be enough to overturn the current situation. Then, why don’t I read his mind to see what he’s up to?’

He then used Mind’s Eye on Katra.

【He definitely has a youthful air about him, being a newbie】

Letters formed above Katra’s head, transforming his thoughts into text.

【Now that I’ve seen his face, I should tease him a bit before heading back】

‘Huh?’
T h i s w a s c op ied f r o m k i n g mt l . o r g

Reading his thoughts, Jung Minwoo felt perplexed.

‘He came all the way here just to see my face…?’

Of course, he would have assessed Pacon Kingdom’s military power by visiting, but even considering that, revealing himself was more disadvantageous.

After all, information could be obtained through other means.

‘I wondered why he came, and this is really the reason?’

As Jung Minwoo was baffled by Katra’s actions.

“What’s with that expression? Why are you so stiff?”

Katra spoke to him in a teasing tone.

“…”

T h i s w a s c op i e d f r o m k in g m tl . org
Unable to find a suitable response, he remained silent.

“Are you scared I’m going to attack you or something? Don’t worry, I can’t do that because of the bet. You know that, right?”

Katra patted Jung Minwoo’s shoulder reassuringly, as if reading his mind.

“I don’t think we’re close enough for you to act so friendly.”

Jung Minwoo brushed off Katra’s hand from his shoulder and spoke.

“Wow, you have quite the temper. You know I’m your senior, who graduated as the top student. Are you really going to be like this?”

Katra pouted, as if he felt hurt.

‘What kind of demon is this…?’

Jung Minwoo felt inexplicably tired and decided he needed to end the conversation quickly.

“As a senior, let me give you some advice. In situations like this, you should kneel down and beg for mercy. Got it?”

That was until Katra uttered those words.

“…What did you say?”

He frowned and asked back.

“Oh, a bit scary, aren’t you? But this attitude will cost you. What are you going to do if I decide not to go easy on you and invade the planet?”

Katra smirked playfully.

‘He’s not worth respecting.’

Although they were from different factions, he had tried to be polite since they were meeting for the first time, but that sentiment vanished completely.

“Really? I was thinking you should be the one kneeling and begging.”

Therefore, Jung Minwoo also smirked and provoked Katra.

“…What did you say?”

Katra’s face hardened instantly, as if the provocation had hit its mark.

“Wouldn’t it be embarrassing to lose to a junior? So you should kneel down and beg for mercy. Don’t you think?”

“…You’re an interesting one.”

At Jung Minwoo’s continued taunts, Katra’s face began to contort with anger.

“Pfft, I’ve never seen a demon who talked like that actually amount to anything. Looks like you’re just another one of those empty shells.”

“…”

“Why are you silent? Where did that demon who was chattering so excitedly go?”

“…”

“Look at your face, all stiff. What are you going to do if we don’t go easy on you and invade the planet? Relax your face.”

“This son of a…”

Finally losing his patience, Katra reached out for Jung Minwoo’s neck, but.

“Do you think you can handle the consequences? If you touch me, the bet will end immediately.”

Halt―

Katra stopped his actions at Jung Minwoo’s words.

“…You will regret defying me.”

“Every single one of them said that before getting their asses handed to them by me.”

“…”

Katra roughly lowered his hand and glared at Jung Minwoo with murderous intent.

“I have no intention of talking to you anymore. So, would you please leave?”

“Don’t push it just because I can’t kill you.”

“Pushing it because you can’t kill me? No, you were the one who pushed it first, weren’t you? And now you’re acting all wronged? How disgusting.”

Jung Minwoo mocked Katra with a playful expression.

“…”

Perhaps judging that there was no further benefit in continuing the conversation, Katra turned around.

“I will not forget this humiliation.”

“Yeah, keep it close to your heart.”

“…”

And with that, he spread his wings and left.

‘Who was the one who started the provocations?’

Having a past life where he had made people cry with his debating skills, Katra’s provocations were merely amusing to him.

‘Now that I know the 2nd Rank demon has arrived, I need to re-examine the plan against him.’

It was necessary to review the plan, as it had been devised 20 years ago.

“Let’s all head to the meeting room.”

After confirming that Katra had completely disappeared, Jung Minwoo suggested to the Demon Communion members that they go to the meeting room.

“Sounds good.”

“…Okay.”

“I don’t like that guy.”
Th i s was c o p i e d f r o m k in g m t l . o r g

“Got it! Ribbit, ribbit.”

Perhaps because they had seen the 2nd Rank demon, the Demon Communion members’ eyes were burning with determination.

Jung Minwoo then re-entered the royal palace to discuss the plan with the Demon Communion members.

Inside the meeting room within the royal palace.

“First, do we all agree that Katra will create Demon Servants and build up his forces?”

Jung Minwoo, seated at the head of the table, addressed the Demon Communion members.

“I agree.”

“…Agreed.”

“Of course. Ribbit, ribbit.”

Venus, Elin, and Rok agreed in turn, but.

“Huh? Why are we letting him build up his forces?”

Anubis scratched her head, questioning Jung Minwoo’s plan.

‘Did she forget the plan we made?’
Th i s w a s co p i ed fr om k i n g mt l.o r g

Jung Minwoo had intended to address this point anyway, so he explained the reason to Anubis.

“Because once Katra builds up his forces, I plan to instigate a fight between him and the Pigeons.”

“Wouldn’t it be more advantageous to kill the Demon Servants he creates as soon as possible, so he can’t use his power?”

“If we do that, we won’t be able to keep the Pigeons in check.”

If they followed Anubis’s logic and killed Katra’s Demon Servants one by one, he wouldn’t be able to use his power. However, that would only end up strengthening the Pigeons.

“Ah, so that’s why you want to make them fight.”

Anubis clapped her hands, as if she understood.

“But how are you going to make them fight?”

She then asked another question, as if a new doubt had arisen.

“We can use the Pigeons.”

“The Pigeons?”

“There are 500 fallen Pigeons. We just need to persuade them to demand war against Katra.”

If 500 Pigeons unanimously demanded war against Katra, even a 2nd Rank Pigeon wouldn’t be able to ignore their opinions.

“Then what are we doing during that time?”

In response to Anubis’s next question, Jung Minwoo shrugged.

“We’ll be invading other kingdoms and empires.”

“Won’t the Pigeons find out if we start invading?”

“No, we have 500 Pigeons to cover our ears.”

“Ah…”

If the fallen Pigeons went on reconnaissance missions and reported that nothing was happening, there would be no risk of getting caught.
T h i s w a s c o p i e d f r om k i n g mt l . o r g

‘Even if they do find out, we’ll have almost finished the invasion by then.’

Moreover, since Katra would be engaged in a war with his own forces, it was highly likely that they wouldn’t notice until Jung Minwoo had invaded the remaining countries.

“Understood!”

Anubis nodded vigorously, as if all her questions had been answered.

“I plan to proceed as we’ve discussed. Does anyone have any objections?”

Jung Minwoo finished his explanation and asked the Demon Communion members for their opinions.

“This seems like the optimal plan.”

T h i s w a s copi e d f r om ki n gm t l . org
“…I don’t think there’s a better plan.”

“Of course. Ribbit, ribbit.”

“I agree~”

They all expressed their agreement.

“Alright, then let’s proceed with this plan.”

After the meeting, Jung Minwoo went to Elvis and ordered him to invade other countries.
