Chapter 39 [Bonus ] The Demon God Is A Part-Timer!
"Welcome to McDowell's, how may I help you?"
A part-timer greeted Keith while handing him a menu of McDowell's dishes.
McDowell's was an unusual fast food chain as its customer service was comparable to restaurants despite serving fast food. Not to mention, it wasn't unusual to see the employees greeting their customers in a delighted manner as if they didn't dislike their job.
Since McDowell's was Keith's fast food chain, he knew how its policies and such so he received the menu from the part-timer and went to the corner to take a seat. Even the fast food chain was named after his family name so Keith valued McDowell's and maintained its high-quality standards that were comparable to top restaurants despite being a fast food chain.
Because of that, in the fast food chain industry, McDowell's dominated the top rankings since they had an edge over their competitors. The majority of McDowell's competitors even went bankrupt.
When Keith took a seat on the table in the corner, he felt that the part-timer who greeted him before wasn't normal. It was his instinct warning him that something was unusual about the part-timer who greeted him before.
Although he felt that the part-timer was unusual, Keith couldn't put his finger on what was wrong with the part-timer.
It wasn't unusual for Keith to not know the identity of the part-timer. Even if he owned the entire fast food chain, that didn't mean he knew all of its employees.
But despite that, Keith felt that although he didn't know anything about the part-timer, he knew about his origin. Or more like, he should have the ability to know about the part-timer's true origin.
Keith guessed that the part-timer must have some sort of secret identity that was discovered by his ZZZ-grade Ultimate Instinct skill. But he didn't panic since he couldn't detect any malicious intent from the part-timer which meant that for now, he wasn't going to threaten him.
Of course, even if the part-timer wasn't malicious despite having a secret identity, that didn't mean that Keith was willing to sweep it under the rug especially after knowing that the part-timer held some secrets.
For a cautious person like Keith, he would never allow any unstable variables unless for the purpose of his entertainment. Because of that, he would uncover the secret of the part-timer regardless of the part-timer's permission.
With that thought in mind, Keith used his Eyes of Heaven to peer through the identity, origin, and secret of the part-timer.
Upon closer look, the part-timer had short pitch-black hair which was neatly trimmed, making him look presentable. He possessed crimson red eyes that looked natural and his strange eye color wasn't due to contact lenses.
Wearing the uniform of McDowell's which had a purple and black color scheme, the part-timer donned a presentable and professional appearance. If it was the average people, they wouldn't find anything unusual about him but Keith wasn't average.
With his Eyes of Heaven, Keith found it unusual that the part-timer used advanced conceal magic to hide a part of his appearance.
On the part-timer's back was a pair of bat-like demonic wings and on his head was a pair of sharp black horns. Not to mention, Keith felt an unusual dark golden energy inside the part-timer and he knew that it wasn't mana.
The dark golden energy within the part-timer's body made Keith feel the instinctive reflex to worship it. But due to the protection from his System Creator System, Keith was immune to most mind-control properties so he wasn't affected by it.
From what his Eyes of Heaven were able to discern, the dark golden energy contained divine properties but also demonic properties. It was an energy far above the quality of mana and was more potent than mana.
But Keith wasn't worried as he noticed that the dark golden energy inside the part-timer's body was faint. It was like a weak fire lit on a candle on a cold and windy night, on the verge of being extinguished.
And from what Keith had noticed, the part-timer's true body was heavily injured. Although that injury didn't incapacitate him as the part-timer could still work like a normal human, it still prevented him from using his true power as well as having access to his true body.
Because of that, the part-timer was reduced to his human form despite being what Keith could call as a "Demon God".
Yes, a heavily injured Demon God was working as a part-timer at McDowell's.
