Work

Staring at [Togu], who has reappeared from hell and been given the status of a resident and the authority to manage the monastery.

The clerk revealed a face full of dissatisfaction and a ferocious expression.

The scribe was quite dissatisfied that these losers, enslaved by outsiders, could return to their status as residents and continue to serve as the "Eighth Demon" and the head of the monastery.

During this time, Han Dong's Lesser Demon Eye also pinpointed the area where the main body of the arm was located, preparing to fight the clerk to the death.

The situation changed from four against one to six against one, and tensions were about to escalate to the point where another conflict was imminent.

Everything in the passage dimmed, including the lava flowing through it.

Upon seeing this, the clerk immediately responded by pulling all his arms, which were scattered in the passageway, back into his body and bowing his head respectfully.

Even Though surrounded by six burly men, she showed no intention of fighting.

It was only because the person she respected and loved most had arrived.

At the same time, the four demons, who were filled with murderous intent, immediately suppressed their frenzy and bowed their heads respectfully.

"Mayor."

The sound of hard leather shoes clattering on the ground echoed through the corridor as a man, whose silhouette was entirely black and devoid of light, slowly approached.

"Verna, you should go back first... I sent Nicholas to the monastery to find out what happened, and he seems to have gotten the answer."

"Mayor, they have violated the Forbidden Command in Derry Town."

"I will personally verify whether they are infected with the virus. If not, then there is no problem... After all, I was the one who sent them here. If it is considered a violation of the Forbidden Command, then I should also be included."

Upon hearing this, Verna's face turned extremely gloomy. "... Mayor, I'm going back now."

"Okay, I'll come and talk to you 'privately' once things are settled."

Upon hearing the word "alone," the clerk, who had been in low spirits, immediately became excited, her supple arms swaying beneath her skirt, clearly unable to contain her excitement.

"Okay... then I'll head back now. La la la~"

The clerk left in a quick, lateral movement.

The translation was achieved through tiny, red, fleshy hands growing from the soles of her feet, no bigger than ants, which carried the clerk at high speed.

With the clerk's departure, the pressure on everyone dissipated.

actually.

Even if Han Dong temporarily added the "Void" attribute to the tentacles,

Even if Togu fully recovers his strength and returns to the title of "Eighth Demon,"

Even if the four strongest human demons in Derry Town were on their side,

Even with a six-on-one advantage, the odds of winning are still 50/50.

The best-case scenario would be if the town mayor could come.

Or perhaps the mayor knew about what was happening all along, but simply waited until the time was right before revealing his thoughts.

"Miles, your party isn't over yet, is it? If you go back now, you should still make it in time."

The four demons naturally understood the mayor's meaning, and despite being seriously injured, they supported each other as they left the monastery... Such a scene was quite rare.

The mayor's gaze fell upon the man who had just returned from hell. "Togu, how does it feel to regain your memories, power, and control of the area?"

Togu twirled a recovered Hell Magic Cube in his hand and answered confidently, "It's very comfortable... Life in the monastery suits me well."

The mayor pressed further. "So, are you willing to stay here, continue to manage the monastery and constantly improve yourself, helping me take Derry Town to a higher level? Or are you still going to leave with this young man?"

If you choose the former, I have a way to sever the Master-Servant Relationship hidden in the 'interlayer'.

Or replace you with a Hidden Resident from Nicholas... I trust Nicholas won't force you to follow him.

Key questions and answers.

Togu, who thought he had regained his memories, held power in Derry Town, had many nuns by his side, and could go to the Hell Monastery for further training at any time, may fall into a period of deep thought.

To everyone's surprise, Togu didn't hesitate at all.

"Mayor, please allow me to continue serving my master..."

Instead of being Life Force at the answer, the mayor showed an expression of great appreciation.

Loyalty was the key quality that the town mayor Oldest One valued in Togu.

"I respect your choice, but I have one condition... During this special period, you need to continue to be in charge of the management of the monastery. No problems are allowed to occur here, and you are not allowed to leave the monastery even for a moment."

As for Nicholas's problem, let him handle it himself.

"Yes..."

The mayor suddenly remembered something else. "By the way, Togu! Do you have any way to persuade another monk to take your place?"

"In response to the mayor... I have already inquired at the Hell Monastery, and Miss Harriss is interested in discussing the issue of [World Transfer] with you, mayor."

If the conditions are satisfactory, she is willing to replace me as the manager of the monastery and serve you, Mayor.

Although Miss Harriss became Hell Monk after me, she is skilled in crafting more servants and is better suited to managing the monastery.

"OK."

Now that everything has been explained...

The town mayor waved his hand.

The Lightless Domain enveloped Han Dong... In the blink of an eye, he was back in the familiar Dean's Office.

Han Dong handed over his notes and report on the investigation of the monastery to his desk.

It also revealed the whereabouts of the Joker's body and Han Dong's own thoughts.

"I hope the mayor can believe me... I can rid Derry Town of this scourge of clowns and prevent further disasters."

The mayor seemed to already have the answer in mind, "Well, I'll give each of you a chance, but... if you don't handle it well, I'll take the chance back."

Another group of young people also seemed quite capable.

Han Dong knew very well that the other group the mayor mentioned was the Dragon City Squad. Being able to kill the clown in the main story, they were naturally qualified to be valued by the mayor... Besides, the Main Plot that Huo Ziping and his group completed at the beginning was related to the Town Hall.

The mayor awarded him a special medal.

"From now on, you will be a detective appointed by the Town Hall, specializing in investigating [The Joker - Pennywise]. You are not subject to Forbidden Command and can make direct contact with parts of the Joker's body."

However, I, the clerk, and the various departments responsible for managing the Joker's section will assess your condition and actions during this process.

Once you cross a certain 'bottom line,' your privileges will be revoked.

"Clear."

"At the same time, the title of detective is limited to you and does not include your two partners... You will have to figure out how to conduct the investigation yourself."

"Thank you, Mayor."
