Chapter 111. At That Very Moment in the Holy Kingdom
A considerable amount of time had passed since I lost consciousness from the aftermath of channeling power beyond my limits. As if on cue, Solomon’s avatar—which had been lying before me, dead and petrified like a statue—transformed into a single beam of black light and poured into me.
“Gasp!”
The moment the light began absorbing into my body, my eyes snapped open reflexively and I jolted upright. Simultaneously, a crown burst forth from my inventory and began absorbing a portion of the incoming light.
The absorption continued regardless of my will. It was a reward—compensation for accomplishing the impossible.
〚Hidden Job Quest (2): Divine Seat, Master of All Demons—Solomon’s Avatar Cleared!〛
〚Congratulations!〛
〚Your job is being inscribed!〛
〚Job: Master of Ten Thousand Demons [Mythic-EX] has been created!〛
〚Stat: Demon Spirit (Mythic) has been created!〛
〚Stat: Pride absorbs Stat: Demon Spirit!〛
〚Stat: Pride’s instability is 50% resolved.〛
〚Stat: Pride increases by 15!〛
〚Status
Infinite (Mythic): F+(68+20/100)
Pride (Primordial): F+(68+20/100)〛
The power of the Divine Seat and Master of All Demons—Solomon—that the avatar possessed was transferred directly to me. The power of a demon god commanding the Seventy-Two Demon Kings and all demonkind itself.
‘This isn’t the job I remember.’
The job I originally aimed for was different. Job: Emperor of Ten Thousand Spirits [Mythic-C+]—that was the job he had obtained before regression, and it was the one I had planned to pursue from the beginning.
Needless to say, Master of Ten Thousand Demons was an incomparably superior job. Even looking at the grade alone made that clear, and the abilities it contained showed a staggering difference.
Even among the same Mythic tier, there was a vast chasm between the genuine and the counterfeit, between the authentic and the degraded.
I knew what abilities Emperor of Ten Thousand Spirits possessed. It was the power to collect and command souls that met specific conditions through demonic energy, enabling a single person to function as an entire legion—a broken ability. That’s why I had pursued it, believing it would allow me to accomplish everything alone.
And Master of Ten Thousand Demons, being the genuine article and a superior job, possessed power that was equally formidable.
〚Job: Master of Ten Thousand Demons
Grade: Mythic
Rank: EX
Type: Hidden-Succession
Status: Primary Job
LV 36(17%)
Description: A job composed of the power of Solomon, the Divine Seat and Master of All Demons—the strongest ruler of the Demon Realm, bearing countless titles such as the primordial greatest demon, the emperor of mighty and transcendent wisdom, and more.

My job grants two Mythic-tier stats, three Divine Powers, and one Territory.
“This is insane.”
All this suffering had been worth it. I stared at the detailed information with my mouth agape, unable to believe my eyes. It was truly as magnificent as a Mythic-tier job should be.
But that wasn’t the end. The ring that had emerged from my inventory and granted me Solomon’s power—no, the Emperor’s Crown—finished its transformation and descended upon my head.
〚You have received the reward item: Demon God’s Crown (魔神冠) [Mythic-EX]!〛
It radiated a far deeper and more intense demonic aura than before, becoming even more beautiful, more powerful, and more resplendent. It was truly worthy of being called the crown of a great Demon God.
〚Item: Demon God’s Crown (魔神冠)
Tier: Mythic
Grade: EX
LV 36 (equal to job level)
Description: A divine artifact that Demon God Solomon always wore. One of three divine artifacts symbolizing him, and a symbol representing his dominion.

-Opens upon condition met
-Opens at LV 50〛
The effects of this divine artifact exceeded my expectations. I nodded in satisfaction. It was undoubtedly a Mythic-tier item that would create synergy with my job.
“Should I check what I’ve obtained so far?”
The saying that Hunters undergo a dramatic transformation upon awakening their first job was indeed true.
I had four abilities to verify: three Divine Powers and one Skill. Since his job was an inferior version, he had only been granted a few unique abilities rather than Divine Powers.
I couldn’t help but smile. With joy in my heart, I examined the true power of my job.
〚Divine Power: Master of Ten Thousand Demons (萬魔)
Case: Origin
Tier: Origin
Gyeok: Origin
Grade: Origin
LV 2 (0%)
Description: Solomon, the primordial Demon, possessed the qualification to become the ruler of all Demons from birth. This Divine Power is the manifestation and inheritance of that strength. All Demons shall ultimately bow their heads beneath you and swear eternal, undying servitude.
Abilities
-Stat: Based on Demon Spirit and Demon Lord stats, you taint and subjugate souls and bodies with demonic energy. (Creates a body if none exists)

-Subjugated Demons receive massive buffs.
-The owner receives massive buffs based on the number of subjugated Demons.
-Current subjugation capacity (0/10,000)
-Opens at LV 3〛
The first Divine Power I examined was an evolved version of the unique ability the Emperor of Ten Thousand Spirits possessed in my memory. While all the abilities were abstract and imprecise, I knew that such vagueness indicated true power. There could be hidden abilities, wider ranges, and numerous other advantages.
It didn’t merely dominate all souls—it tainted them with demonic essence and strengthened them, and the owner grew stronger based on their number.
In other words, the more Demons I subjugated, the more powerful I became.
Next Divine Power.
〚Authority: Demon God Body
Grade: Origin
Rank: Origin
LV 1(0%)
Description: I have inherited the body granted only to demons born at the very beginning of time. This is the body capable of standing at the apex of all demons.

-Ignores all penalties from demon-related abilities or items.

There was nothing more to say about this. It was simply an ability that allowed me to stand at the pinnacle in matters of demonic energy.
〚Authority: Reign of Ten Thousand Demons
Grade: Origin
Rank: Origin
LV 2(0%)
Description: Solomon, who once stood above all demons, reigned supreme over them. He was a king among kings—both a tyrant and a benevolent ruler.

-Grants random unique abilities to all subordinates.
-Can issue absolute commands to all subordinates exactly twice each.
-Special hidden Quests related to all subordinates may be generated.
-LV 3 Unlocked〛
Reign of Ten Thousand Demons was like a supporting authority that amplified the abilities of both the Master of Ten Thousand Demons and the job itself. One might call it a type of buff skill.
〚Skill: Demon God Territory Descent
Grade: Mythic
Rank: EX
LV 1(0%)
Description: A skill granted only to the primordial demon, the god of demons, and the absolute among the eight demon gods. It manifests and materializes my hidden domain, the Demon God Territory.
Abilities
-Descends the Demon God Territory. (Cooldown 10 days)(Range 300m)
-LV 3 Unlocked〛
The final skill was straightforward. One might call it a territorial skill—the ability to manifest my domain anywhere at any time within the surrounding area.
‘There must be something hidden within the Demon God Territory.’
The 10-day cooldown was far too long to use it immediately. I couldn’t afford to waste it carelessly and find myself unable to use it in the next battle.
My current situation was far from favorable, so I needed to be even more cautious and deliberate. My original objective was to investigate and take action against whatever Cardinal Aoira was preparing here in the Underground Prison.
Somehow, I not only stopped it but absorbed its power myself, so I’ve already far exceeded that goal.
However, the real threat still remains. Cardinal Aoira. Only by dealing with him can I see the end of this wretched affair.
Before my eyes, a Quest suddenly materialized. It was showing me the path I must walk forward.
〚Hidden Job Quest (3): Apocalypse Descends Upon the Holy Kingdom
Grade: Mythic
Rank: SSS-

Success Reward: Hidden Job Quest (4) Generated, Minor Clue for Second Job Awakening, ???
Failure Consequence: Soul Theft, Physical Death, Holy Kingdom Annihilation, Release of 3 Calamity-Class Demons〛
“Damn it all.”
Another descent? This is infuriating. I clicked my tongue and rose from my seat. Rest was over. It was time to return to the surface.
But first, one problem remained unsolved. I turned my gaze toward the spirit staring blankly at me—or rather, at the crown I wore.
《Great King of Kings. Primordial Demon. What is it that you desire of me?》
Meeting the eyes of the Fallen Angel consumed by confusion and terror, I extended my hand. If there was a spirit to become my first subordinate, it would be her.
“Come with me.”
《…Perhaps this is why God left me in such a place. Contractor. I acknowledge you as the heir to the throne.》
The spirit reaches out. Her hand and mine touch.
Normally, something intangible, unfelt, incomprehensible. Yet her hand and mine unmistakably connected.
The Arrogance—no, the Demon Spirit stat moves. The purest and most concentrated demonic energy bestowed upon me by the darkest Primordial Demon, the power that creates all demons, awakens.
Beginning from within my body, it flows through my fingertips to the Fallen Angel. Her soul begins to be dyed in my color.
《Ah…!》
With an exclamation, her form transforms. A physical body materializes, no longer merely spirit. Ten pairs of wings flutter beautifully, and beauty transcending mortal aesthetics manifests in this world.
Light and darkness. The epitome of worthlessness.
《I remember.》
Her eyes grow sharper, her aura stronger. She bears no resemblance to her former self. Perhaps now I can no longer summon her as a mere spirit. She is far more than that now.
It would be a lie to say I’m not disappointed. She was one of my most formidable cards, after all. Yet instinctively, I understand.
That I must subordinate this Fallen Angel.
The subordination is complete. Above her perfectly formed head, a halo similar to the crown I wear materializes.
