For me, if they tell me to do it, I'm going to do it.

On the other hand, if they tell you not to move, you'll have to wonder what you're going to do.

Specifically, I'm going to have to convince the supervisor.

If this were a not-so-familiar person, it would be the opposite, but unfortunately, we're dealing with someone who is close enough to us that we won't be abandoned.

You don't want to do nothing.

Yes.

”...... affirms it surprisingly easily.

I thought I was going to be told not to move because I wasn't good enough, but the supervisor simply affirmed my question.

I'm in a situation where I have to use any available man, even a cat. But we have to keep the company running, so it's not possible. And then there are only a few that can be moved.

As an employee, it's a blessing to be certified as a serviceable guy, but I don't feel comfortable with what he says he can do.

It's even more complicated when you have the power to change the status quo. Jiro, your fallen angel is going to have to work too.

”What are you going to do?

Himikku is supposed to be protected under my supervision.

And while she'll do anything Suela or Memoria asks, she won't accept orders from the rest of the demon king's army.

When I ask Himiku for a favor, she tries to do everything I ask of her, so I can't ask her to do it carelessly, but basically, she has a separate position from the demon king's army.

If you take Himiku with you, the situation becomes even more dubious.

At least at this stage the battle is sure to occur.

”We'll draw out the heroes.

The superintendent, or rather the movement of the demon king's army was explained to me.

The general's all generals, including the reserve force, have been sent out to deal with this rebellion.

The enemy also has its own forces at hand, and since we are holding the balance between the two sides, we need a breakthrough plan.

The solution is to defeat the opponent's trump card, the brave man, Carter with the holy sword.

What does this have to do with Amelia?

”Miyagawa's condition right now is almost the same as the demon king's. And the brave man, the bearer of the holy sword is sensitive to the magic of the existence of the demon king. If he senses this magic, he will reveal himself. I'll have the demon king strike you there.

”You mean as a decoy, but isn't it possible that they won't get on board?

It's not.

”May I ask why?

''Miyagawa's existence is classified even within the Demon King's Army. Although he's superficially registered as a tester, only a few people know of his existence. Only those under the direct control of a general or higher are privy to it. It's not the kind of information a frontier guy would have. If they knew, they wouldn't have left it behind. You can fool them the first time, let alone the second time.

The fact that the information that Amelia has the soul of a demon king inside her body is being kept secret is a good match for this situation.

Normally, it's impossible to think of two demon kings.

What kind of nightmare is this?

You'll be in charge of retrieving Miyagawa and calming him down when the hero and the demon king are in battle.

”There is a way, isn't there?

”I won't let you go scot-free.

At present, it is a brave man, in a bad way, to go against Amelia, who, though deteriorating, has demonstrated strength comparable to that of the demon king.

It could become a kamikaze suicide attack.

To prevent that from happening, the supervisor explained his plan to me.

...... Really?

”I love a joke, but I pick my timing. Can you do that?

”In terms of what you can and can't do, it is possible.

”Then do it.

”Yes, sir.

The plan was so outrageous that I asked for confirmation, but the supervisor didn't say it was a lie or a joke, but he asked me if I could do it.

When I say yes, the supervisor orders me to do it.

Can I get someone else?

Yeah, we'll need it. I'll tell them to get their equipment. I'll get everyone who can be mobilized.

Now I just need to get ready.

With that, I'm going to get up from my seat and get ready.

Jiro.

The supervisor stopped me.

”What is it?

I turned around and looked at the supervisor and he was staring at me.

”Come back safe.

”You won't get it intact, but I'll do my best.

That's it.

He sent me off with a gentleness that he doesn't usually show.

Word of the Day

Well, let's do what we can.
