53 1 month has passed




 It's been exactly a month since I was reborn as the Demon King.

''So, up to five of the Seven Great Demon Chiefs' seats have now been filled.

 I was talking to Stella in the Oval Office.

'We're also rushing to make a list of potential replacements for the two remaining seats.

 Stella answers.

 Long silver hair and purple eyes.
 The jet-black outfit reminiscent of military uniforms.
 She's an entourage of beautiful girls with a figure that could be called the most beautiful girl in the world.

 Once again, let's review the current situation of the demon army.

 The First Army.
The First Force, led by Stella from Vision.
 An army made up of demons such as cancerous demons and Jigokumi, who are skilled in espionage abilities.
 They are the keystone of information in the demon world, with the mission of investigating trends in the human world as well as the entire demon world.

 The Second Army.
The Second Army, overseen by the Lord Undead Regal.
 An army composed of undead demons that are immortal monsters.
 They have a lot of time and money to spend on their own.
 However, they can also wield their power in the event of an invasion of the human world.

 The Third Army.
The third army, overseen by Feriah the Dreamer Princess (Dead Charm).
 An army of demons with the power to interfere with the mind, such as succubus and death fairies.
 They play an active role in both defense and offense regarding magic and spells that affect the mind.

 The Fourth Army.
The fourth army, overseen by Zegato, the Beast Emperor (Gigantroa).
 The fourth army, overseen by Zegato, the Beast Emperor.
 They are the main force behind the invasion of the human world, and boast the strongest offensive power in the entire army.
 In a sense, they are the sword of the demon world.
 Since the Demon Commander Zegert and his deputy Sigmund are missing, the third seat, the demon tribe, is in charge as a substitute.
 However, compared to Zegert, who has absolute charisma, the control and management of the legion is less than comfortable.

 The Fifth Army.
The new vassal who took over the title of "Extreme Magic (Master)" from Zuillaam - Judah is in charge.
 This is a military unit made up of magician type demons.
 It is the magical warfare force in both offensive and defensive aspects of the magical world, and is also responsible for maintaining magical facilities throughout the magical world and developing magical tools.
 Despite having only been in office for a few days, Judah is more capable than I expected.
 With a more centripetal force than Zulam, the legion is rapidly being re-organized.
 However, his own personality is highly uneven and will need to be watched closely.

 The Sixth Army is made up of demons skilled in healing, while the Seventh Army is made up of artisanal demons who excel in the field of mechanical manufacturing.
 In the previous battle with the heroes, the Demon Army Chiefs were all killed in battle, and it was urgent to select their replacements.

''How far advanced is the list of candidates to replace the 'Evil Priest' (Priest) and 'Alchemist' (Alchemist)?'''

 I asked Stella.
 Incidentally, 'Evil Priest' is the title of the Sixth Army's 'Evil Priest' and 'Alchemist' is the title of the Seventh Army's Demon Army Chief.

''It's just as difficult to select a 'Master' as it is to select a 'Extreme Magician'. After all, there are only a limited number of demon clans that are capable of serving as the Demon Army Chief...

 And an apologetic Stella said, "I'm sorry.

'Don't give me a hard time,'
This is my role. I will do my best to live up to Mr. Freed's expectations.

 Stella bowed deeply.

''You have always done a great job. Because of your support, I've managed to fulfill my role as a demon king.

 I looked at her.

'Thank you, Stella.'
I don't deserve your kind words, Master Freed...

 Her eyes, staring at me, seemed to be heartily moist.

 I remember the other day when she hugged me.
 Or rather, I hugged her back.

 Suddenly, I felt like I was being facetious.

''Oh, um........''

 And Stella's face turns red.
 

''Tu, the next one is related to public facilities (infrastructure) throughout the demon world.

 I cleared my throat and went on with my story.

Oh my God, what I did before... oh my God, what I did to Master Freed... oh my God... ...I...

 But apparently Stella hadn't come back to work mode yet.
 She was blushing and moping.

''........Stella?''
What? Yes, I'm not getting high, you know.

 Stella's voice was clearly upturned.

''I'm ... sorry. It's utility-related, isn't it?

 Huffing out a breath, Stella finally returns to her normal cool demeanor.

''A lot of facilities were destroyed during the previous invasion by the brave men. I hope you will continue to focus on repairing them for the sake of the lives of the people of the demon world.
The Fifth Army is in charge of restoring the facilities where magical technology is used, and the Seventh Army is in charge of the parts of the facility where mechanical technology is used.

 And, Stella.

'As for the Fifth Army, the pace of work seems to be picking up with the appointment of Judas to the vacant Demon Army Chief position.
On the other hand, the Seventh Army's work was a bit slow.
I think we should recheck our staffing allocations and, if possible, turn the budget around a bit more.
All right. You'll have to use Stella's judgment in that area.
Yes, sir.

 I feel like I'm throwing the job to them, but it's going to work better if I leave it to Stella than if I half-heartedly interfere.
 In fact, each field has its own specialized demon race.
 It's a good idea to assign roles to them so that they can do their jobs as smoothly as possible.

 I'm not going to be the only one who has a lot of experience in this field.

 I'd like to proceed with the search for the shard of the Demon King's Sword, but it's not a problem that can be solved immediately.
 I can't search for it with Judas's magic, and I had Stella try her clairvoyance, but it was still no good.
 I guess I'll just have to find a way to make it happen...

    

 In the Cathedral, the training of the Four Heavenly Holy Swords (Sacred Edge) was continuing.

 A beautiful girl with blue hair in twin-tails and a yellow ribbon was engaged in a battle with a beautiful woman with golden hair tied up.
 It's a mock battle, just like a real battle.

"Type-2, Maxi-armor (Axel-Sau) Bullet Precision Firing (Zando-Arrow)!
Type 2: The Fire Flower Buster!

 The thousands of arrows fired by Ludmilla were met by Fiore with thousands of fire slashes as well.

 The huge energies collided with each other, causing a huge explosion.
 If this was the real world and not an alternate universe, the explosion was probably enough to have changed the terrain.

''You're good at this, Fiore-san...''

 Ludmira holds her black bow and smiles with the corners of her mouth hanging up.

''It seems that I, too, have learned to use this power.

 Fioret announced, holding a fine sword-shaped miracle armor.

 The sword was colored jet black, just like Ludmilla's.
 The Miracle Armament: The Second Release - Chaos Form.
 The same power that Ludmilla had worn the other day, she had also obtained the same power.

''Wow, they're both amazing~''

 And then a girl walked up to me.

 She is a beautiful girl with silver hair in two-side up and crimson eyes.
 Wearing a crimson robe of the same color as her eyes.

 It was a rouge that was an apostle of God.

''I'm sure they're already strong enough to defeat a Demon Army Chief class without any trouble. The two of them are both very good at understanding, and I find it worth teaching them.

 The Red Apostle (Rouge) smiled.

''Well, let's go to the next level then, shall we?''
