I Become a Staff Officer in the Demon Army, but I Can Only Do Office Work!

A few days after Leona asks me about the Demon King Army Station situation that makes me thankfully headache, I clean up the happy, sad, gradually increasing paperwork with Mr. Sophia.

Troops in the vicinity of the Devil's Capital have already been instructed to leave documentation of requests for supplies.

It's impossible to document all requests for boulders.

But it is also true that the Demon King's Army was biased towards an unsubstantiated oral order. It becomes a hotbed of injustice.

Regardless, documents aren't more complete than they could possibly be forged or replaced, but they would still have more power than oral orders in this world where there is no recording machine.

That's why I decided to leave as much on the document as I could, at least just about the barracks I could reach.

Which units requested how much supplies, from which warehouses they contributed to it, how they were transported, and whether it was achieved, what happened to the warehouse's stocks of munitions as a result of the replenishment, etc.

They are all plain but important, and I want to believe that it is necessary for the Demon King's Army to make useful use of its resources...

Failure to do so is likely to break my guts by making this deposited paperwork current.

"Mr. Sophia, how many warehouses are in the Devil's Capital?

"There is a warehouse in the harbour north of the Demon Army General Command, the Development Bureau outside the Demon Army General Command, the Demon Army Demon Metropolitan Defense Force garrison in the suburbs"

"Is that four?"

"No, there are three in command, so that's six places."

"Why three places..."

"Come on?"

Come on, say it.

Is it divided by purpose?

For example, food, demonic stones, and equipment. Oh, but the garrison warehouse counts for one place combined food, demon stone, and equipment warehouse.

"... is it the quickest way to find out with your own eyes and feet"

"Nothing, but who's going to clean up this paperwork after Akira leaves?

"... the Demon King Army can afford human resources, can't it?

If we don't reduce jobs by securing a large number of people who can handle affairs, we're going to die of overwork. I don't care if you transfer to a company or livestock.

"Human resources…?

Oh, our kind demon king, His Majesty Hell Arche, is a man (a subhuman?) You are taken care of.

No, it's a good thing you take care of it. But sometimes people have to count in numbers as resources. That's what some elite toddler said.

"Well, anyway, we need to ask His Majesty to enhance those who can handle the affairs..."

"Did I call you?

!?

It was there that His Majesty the Demon King arrived abruptly and naturally at the Station Station.

From what I've seen, there's coal and sand on my clothes and parts of my body.

Looks like we're going home to battle. I didn't know you'd be here as soon as you got back from the battle. Maybe His Majesty is free.

And I want to say it, but there's patience.

"I'm not free. It's so much fun talking to you that I want to stop by."

"So don't read it in your heart"

Come on, I gotta learn poker face too, like Mr. Sophia.

"Sorry, I'm in the iron mask"

"I haven't said anything yet."

"Is that what you mean when you look at me after they read it in your heart?

Though yes.

"Cohon. Well, anyway, Your Majesty, I need to talk to you a little."

"Say anything. We'll work together if we can."

"Thank you for your generous words. There were two things you said about consultation..."

One is about enhancing personnel. It's just not possible for me and Mr. Sophia to turn the barracks around alone.

The other one was taught the other day by Mad from the Bureau of Development.

Since then, there has been a huge variety of devil statues and golem types developed by the Bureau of Development in collaboration with Mr. Sophia.

The most common generic stone statues alone range from Type I to Type XI, and there are also types such as Type A, Special Metal, Reinforced, Water Warfare, and Simple. Together, there will be more than 30.

And the demonic stones that match each type are also developed, produced, used, and supplied with a system of barracks are not built...

It looks like the Dombri account is supplying the front line with demonic stones.

"With such a wide variety of demonic statues, I think the barracks would originally cause confusion even on the front lines. I thought we should get our hands on it as soon as possible."

"That being said, I really want a demonic statue that is suitable for the environment and supposed battlefield on the front line though. And we have a vast battlefield on the continent, so there's another vast variety of battlefields."

"But this compresses the supply line too much. Grasp the demonic statues used by each unit, distinguish the types of demonic stones, and give the convoy a lot of effort to thoroughly carry them to the front."

"Then, as before, should we carry our own demonic stones to each squad? And you can judge that on the scene. There are plenty of magic stones in themselves."

It seems that the Demon King's Army did not develop the mechanism of soldier stations because it is a continent rich in resources such as Demon Stones.

The Dombri account's Demon Stone replenishment and local sourcing have managed to secure food, he said.

But if you're saying that the human army is leading the modern army to tank and aircraft, we should ensure that such a useful resource is available as much as we can.

It's a shame to dump the Demon Stone in the dob. I think.

"From now on, the battle against the human army will be more and more intense. At that time, you might lose while we have a poor barracks system."

"I'm not gonna lose."

Though I might say that because His Majesty would have supported the front line many times.

"But the scientific power of mankind is also advancing every day. And that's 100 years from now, you might be making terrible things."

I mean, humankind could do it.

At least, Earth and mankind did.

It was the American Civil War, which began in 1861 A.D., that humanity experienced its first modern trench warfare.

We only have about 100 years from there until we burn the planet with a nuclear flame. It is short from the history of mankind, and shorter from the life expectancy of the Demons.

Will His Majesty the Demon be safe in a nuclear flame?

Just curious, but that's why I don't want to try it.

"One day it may be possible to develop a weapon similar to the sorcery of His Majesty the Demon and defeat His Majesty the Demon. If that happens, the Demon King's Army has no future."

"If you're going to die in battle, that's what you want."

"Your Majesty may be fine with that, but also be left behind. I will surely be executed as a man who betrayed humanity."

Probably waiting for a worse execution than a fire. Exactly. I don't like that.

"... Well, maybe you're right. Whatever I am, do I have a duty to think about the future of those left behind? Okay. Let's consider the demon statue. Then we'll have a meeting with the front-line unit and the Bureau of Development, and we'll sort out the specifics."

"I cannot thank you enough, Your Majesty."

First step, is that it?
