Well, that's why.

　It may seem like a drift, but I've decided to make my own country. It's been decided. To be honest, I have no idea what I'm supposed to do.
　In the meantime, Drake said something like, "First of all, I think we should put our strong people under the control of Noah-sama," so I'm taking the people who are my friends but don't have the perfect will to join me one by one.

''Huh...''

What's the matter, husband, you've had enough of this?

I got bored with it a long time ago.

　At first it was fun to see the demons become friends. Oh, I didn't know if this guy had this kind of personality or not.
　But, it became more and more work. But if you lose your focus, you'll go easy on him and kill him. Even though he is a demon, it's not good enough to kill a demon that's already following me. The demons that don't join me properly don't seem to be able to solidify their magic element, and they disappear.
　So I wonder how many demons I've already made into my friends, holding back as hard as I can. Milo says we haven't even gotten to a thousand of them yet.
　It's already been a month since I said I was going to build a country.
　I've only managed to recruit about thirty animals in one day. It would take more than a year to recruit 15,000 animals.

"Well, we can't just blow them all up at once, can we?

'If we blow them all up together, I think a few of the ones in front of us will die.

You are a pain in the ass, sir. It's not very useful.

I feel the same way, I really do.

　I wonder if there's some way to shorten it.
　There are more than a thousand demons that can communicate with each other, so the rest don't need to have their own will. For example, they could make Miro the general and make a communicative monster the captain, and have the rest of the army be the soldiers. That's how they're going to make a milo army, and if Gilanka is the general, they'll be mainly goblins.
　That might work surprisingly well. For now, I'll just make an army out of it, and I'll take care of the rest in my free time, like one or two Goblins a day.
　Then we'll be free of the current situation.

Okay!

Yes, sir.

Let's get out of here. We need to talk to them.

What's going on here?

　I got up and walked outside and took a breath of air first.
　Not the stagnant air in the room, but the clear forest air. Just by doing so, I feel as if my mind is cleansed.
　Well, when I see a bunch of demons in a row, that tension goes down a notch!

'Well...'

　At any rate, the person I'm looking for is Drake.
　I don't know why, but it seems like Drake has been like a chief strategist lately. Well, rather than demons who don't know anything about human society, Drake, who was in a high-ranking position as an adventurer in his own right, knows it better. The right person in the right place, you know.
　Eh, me?　I've been traveling all the time since I was fifteen years old, so I don't know anything about society.

First, we must clear the forest on the side of the kingdom of Olvance. First, we must build a suitable residence for Lord Noah. What do you think about building, Lord Puppy?

Hmm. There is a good architect in the Elven village. He will have no problem leaving things to him. He won't be able to converse with us, but he'll be able to do so with the boy.

'We can't afford to bother Noah-sama that much, can we? I too find it inconvenient that I can't communicate with you, but I think we should think of ways to communicate somehow. How about writing in writing?

I understand human speech, but not letters.

'I can understand that. Well then, we might need to take the opportunity to teach the demons about that. In the form of education, let's have all the demons learn the human language first. Fortunately, they seem to be able to understand human language.

Well, you can do whatever you want.

Ha. Leave it to me.

　Drake was there.
　For some reason, he's talking about that with Puppy. I mean, why are you so high and mighty, Puppy?
　I'm telling you, you're pretty low on the list of my people.

Drake.

'Oh ... oh, Master Noah. What is the matter with you?

No I was just wondering what you're doing. I need to talk to you about something.

Ha. Ha. This is Drake, Master Noah's servant. Please give me an order.

　No, I don't need to be a servant.
　Should I be happy that she loves me that much? This might have made a girl happy, though.

First of all, I'm thinking of building an army.

An army?

Yeah. At any rate, there are about a thousand of them that have joined me. A thousand of them is plenty for the executive class, right?　Milo and Gilanka, Bau and Drake, you shall be the Four Heavenly Kings and the Four Great Generals.

Oh...!

　At my words, Drake's eyes widened with a sigh of admiration.
　The Four Great Generals is something I just thought of earlier. At least Milo, Gilanka, and Drake are the highest level of my people. Even Gilanka, the lowest, is level 43, and most of the other demons are in the 30s.
　Incidentally, Bau is also currently up to level 34. I couldn't help but wonder why he had risen that high, but it seems that when I was playing with Bau, his sweet bite was perceived as an attack on me. I've heard that attacking someone with a difference in level raises their level. That's probably what it was.

　I'm sure you're not going to be able to believe what I'm saying, but Puppy's eyes are wide open in disbelief.

''Oh, hey, kid...!

And under your command, I'll have my new companion as captain. I'm going to make sure that my new friends are your captains, and I'm going to make sure that you have a group of monsters under you that have no intentions yet. I'm going to leave that selection up to you, Drake. Is that all right?

Yes, my Lord Noah. I will build you a powerful army.

"Hey, wait a minute, kid!　I am!　I am!

"Ha-ha, I'm a general too. Yeah, I'll be the one to deliver the message to the kid and the dog. Drake, you can sort out my crew.

Yes. Yes. How about Milo's troops being mainly beastmen, Bau's troops being mainly beastmen, and Gilanka's troops being mainly subspecies?　My army is the remaining mixed army.

Well, I'll let you figure that out.

Yes, Master Noah. Leave it to me.

Do not listen to me!

　The highest level of my people are puppies. That is an undeniable fact.
　But I'm never going to make Puppy a general.

　Because I can see how this guy is going to be manipulated.
