The Demon Goes to Work Today As Well

Chapter 1: Prologue

“Yeah, I’m fine now.”

Jung Minwoo shrugged as if to say he was okay.

“You never know what might happen if we’re late. Let’s hurry to the auditorium.”

“Agreed. Ribbit, ribbit.”

Walking along the hallway, they entered the auditorium with Frog Man.

‘This is grotesque……’

A scene unfolded that seemed straight out of an RPG game.

Th i s w a s c op ied f r om k i n g mt l. or g
Chairs made of skeletons, torches placed closely together, and……

‘……What, is that a monster that looks like a boss standing there?’

On the platform, there was a horned demon that looked at least 5 meters tall.

‘I feel like one punch from that thing would turn me to dust……’

Jung Minwoo felt intimidated by the demon’s imposing presence on the podium and sat down in a nearby chair.

T h is w a s c o p i ed f r o m k i n g m t l . o r g
“I’m getting nervous, thinking that I’m starting my life as a demon now. Ribbit, ribbit.”
Th i s w as c o p i e d f r om k i n g m t l .o r g

Jung Minwoo nodded in agreement with Frog Man, who sat down next to him.

“Yeah, I’m really nervous too.”

He had made up his mind, but he couldn’t help but feel tense now that he was actually here.

After a while,

Bustling―

As other demons entered the auditorium, it started to become noisy.

Before the commotion could subside, the demon standing on the podium glanced at his wrist and opened his tightly closed mouth.

“Time’s up. Execute the latecomers.”

As soon as the demon finished speaking,

“U-uwaaagh!”

The demons guarding the door began to attack the demons entering the auditorium without mercy.

The demons who were trying to enter late collapsed to the floor without any resistance, their bodies growing cold.

‘……Crazy!’

Jung Minwoo felt once again that this was not a dream due to the ruthless actions.

‘This is a place with no human rights.’

The demon standing on the podium said, looking at the dying demons with an indifferent gaze.

“Demons must have a strict concept of time. Those who don’t deserve to be demons.”

At the demon’s words, Jung Minwoo vowed over and over again that he would never be late no matter what.

“It seems like almost everyone is here, so let’s begin.”

The demon on the podium lightly clapped his hands.

T hi s w a s c op i ed fr o m ki ng mt l. o r g
Whirr―

A hologram appeared in the air.

“As you all know, this is a training center that cultivates great and evil demons. For half a year, you will receive training to become true demons, and after the training is over, you will begin your activities as demons, just like your senior demons.”

He didn’t quite understand what a great, evil, and true demon was.

‘So this place is like a school and a training center?’

At least he could understand that what he learned here would be really important for his survival.

“Also, except for the top ten graduates, the rest will be disposed of.”

The demon’s shocking statement caused a sudden stir in the auditorium.

‘D, Disposed of……?’

Th i s wa s c o p i e d f ro m k ing m t l .or g
Jung Minwoo was also bewildered.

‘This many people……?’
Th i s w as copi e d f r o m k i n g m tl . o r g

He looked around.

‘About a thousand people……’

He could see that quite a few demons were present.

The demon on the podium frowned at their reaction and shouted.
T hi s wa s co p i e d fr om k in g mt l .o r g

“Silence!”

‘Ugh!’ An unknown force pressed down on him.

“The world of demons is a survival of the fittest where only a few elites survive. Those who have complaints, commit suicide now.”

Fortunately, there were no foolish demons here who would commit suicide just because they were told to.

‘No one would throw away their life.’

Jung Minwoo, despite being reincarnated as a demon, didn’t want to die again, so he had no intention of committing suicide.

T h i s w a s c o p ie d fr o m k i ng m t l . or g
‘……Okay, let’s do this. It’s not that hard to be in the top ten.’

Even if demons were intelligent higher beings, they were still chicks who had been born less than a week ago.

‘On the other hand, I’ve lived my whole life in fierce competition. I have a good chance.’

If he could make it to the top 1% in Hell Joseon, what’s ten people?

‘……I’ll survive no matter what!’

Jung Minwoo burned with fighting spirit as he looked at the surrounding demons he would be competing against.

“I’m looking forward to this batch even more since no one is committing suicide. Then, what you need to do……”

The demon on the podium continued his long explanation, but in short, it was this:

Invade other planets.

“……From now on, we will thoroughly teach you the basic qualities that a demon must possess and what effective and efficient invasion is.”

T h is wa s c o p ie d f r o m k in g m t l . o r g
He felt a sense of rejection at the words ‘invade’, but

‘I have no time to worry about such things.’

His own safety was more important, so he had no choice but to survive.

“The top graduate will earn the right to receive a name, the privilege of choosing an assistant, and 10,000 DP.”

A very generous offer.

T h i s w as c o p i e d f r o m k i n g m tl .o rg
You might wonder why it’s a generous offer.

‘Demons increase their status just by having a name.’

In other words, a name for a demon was like a rank.

‘The assistant is one thing, but the DP support is quite generous.’

DP (Devil Point).

Devil Points. It was easy to think of it as a currency.

‘He said you can buy simple food with 1 DP, so if I graduate at the top, I won’t have to worry about money.’

Jung Minwoo changed his goal from being in the top ten to graduating at the top.

‘Okay, let’s do this.’

He decided to show them how scary a human raised in Hell Joseon could be when they set their mind to it.
