862 Thank you for your hard work.
My name is Malvastos.
It was an officer of the Demon King's army, Malvastos.
In terms of rank, he holds an important position after the Four Heavenly Kings.
Such a heavy responsibility was probably the reason why it was taken out.
Governor General of the Human Occupation Office.
It was he who got the honor.
The Lord of my life, the young and great Demon King Zedan, sent down his enemies by a raid of lightning.
Hundreds of years... no, it ended the demonic war between people that was supposed to have lasted over a thousand years.
That alone is a feat worthy of a name in history, but the greatness of Demon King Zedan lies in the fact that it does not stop there.
The army was stationed in the occupied human country and ordered to protect its inhabitants.
There were many generals who disagreed with this policy.
They were enemies who had fought against the Humans for hundreds of years.
There was also resentment over the years, and some fierce people strongly complained that there was no reason to reach out even if it was said to be eradicated after winning or losing.
However, the Demon King dismissed all of those thoughts.
And he said, Thou shalt not carry on the grudges of war after they are finished, and forbade vengeance till he was a soldier.
I have been chosen as the Commander-in-Chief of the occupying forces stationed in the Human Nation, because that is the right course of action.
My assessment within the army was that I valued reason over impulse and was suitable for use in delicate situations where not a single mistake was allowed.
Effective control of the human nation is demanded as if it were steering a thin ice, and it is very difficult for the power-built pig warrior to serve.
After worshipping me, I left the demon country I had been accustomed to for a long time and moved to the human country.
Once an enemy state... there will still be plenty of insurgents hiding.
It was also a dangerous mission where assassinations, murders, etc. could be plentiful.
Even though the war was over, the mission of the occupied territories, which still had to face the slash and bust, tended to be shunned, to be quite clear.
In fact, many of those who came to the field felt that they had pulled the poorest of the poor.
Thirty years of military service.
I climbed up from a soldier to the rank of senior general, and I was unusual in the army.
If you achieve such a fierce succession, you will be called upon to become the Four Heavenly Kings by the sacred sword heir family.
There have been many such cases in the past, and it was normal for promising generals to be mowed down in Aota and absorbed into the powerful family lineage.
Even more so if you are from a common people without a gateway, it was said that calling out from the nobility was the basic course for success, and that if you did not call out, you would not be able to succeed.
In fact, Belfegamilia and Mamoru, who currently hold the seats of the Four Heavenly Kings, are adopted by their son-in-law, and Lady Grashala, who was the Four Heavenly Kings of the ancestors of "Resentment", is the undisputed muscle of the lineage of the resentful sword Humphviolet.
Due to its edge and strength, it became the Four Heavenly Kings, and it was even Cinderella who was first seen by the Demon King and became the Demon King's Queen.
For me to become a member of the Demon King army, my strength and my connection to the Four Heavenly Kings were essential.
I'm from the common people and have no connections. There was a limit to how high I could climb unless I married a woman of the Four Heavenly Kings inheritance family during the course of my career.
"So what did I do..."
I didn't end up with those women.
There is nothing in particular when asked if there was any reason.
If you put it firmly, there was no woman in the Four Heavenly Kings family......
Even if I had, I already had a determined opponent, and I didn't have anything to do with it...
While doing so, I met my current wife and got together somehow.
By the way, we were married.
At that time, I was told by my colleagues that "I had arrived early", but I was still able to go on with my career without much trouble and rise to the rank of Senior General of the Demon King's Army.
It would be the highest position to go without connecting with the family of the Four Heavenly Kings.
It is said from the surroundings that "the man who became great by his strength alone" and "the fifth Four Heavenly Kings", and I am proud to have become an indispensable part of the Demon King's army.
That's why I needed to go to the human country.
The Four Heavenly Kings are essential to the Demon King's army, which must undergo major reform. In parallel, only those with the highest abilities and achievements will be responsible for the occupation and governance of a human country of the same scale as their own.
In that case, it is not the Four Heavenly Kings, but only me who is comparable to the Four Heavenly Kings.
A few years to decide to be prepared to cross the heresy and encourage it.
It wasn't as harsh a mission as I could imagine.
The non-occupiers, the Humans, did not show as much resistance as expected, but rather welcomed us.
It must have been that much dissatisfaction with the royal family and the church that were the old rulers.
I left my family in the demon kingdom, but I could easily return to it if I only had the transfer magic. Just after the end of the war, the regulations on transfer magic were relaxed, and I returned to the Demon Capital more often than I thought, and I was able to spend time with my family.
The specific duties are different from what I imagined... "
We have a festival event in a human territory, so we need to support it.
You have to do whatever you want.
Supervise the planting of the Elf Forest.
Gather talented boys and girls from all over.
It seemed like there were a lot of peaceful and strange orders.
"But thanks to you, you can do it without danger..."
The time has come to complete all of our missions.
It was judged that the former human country could recover from the exhaustion of the middle and late stages of the war and manage its own state.
We will be relieved of our duties and withdraw to our homeland.
I myself have decided to return the position of Governor.
It was a long, short day.
When I arrived, I was prepared to bury my bones in this land, but it would be because the human temperament was so diligent that sovereignty was returned so quickly.
Many new encounters as Governor General of the Capitol were mostly polite, logical, and always determined to act for their homeland and their people.
Thanks to this, the reconstruction progressed rapidly, and the help of our demons was unnecessary.
After many conversations with the demon king of my country and the representatives of the new government on the human side, I thought about the perfect timing for returning sovereignty.
The emotion was that it was a young man who was known to have served as the representative of the tribe.
At one time, I had gathered boys and girls from Japan to make new attempts at human resource development, but I was one of them.
When I thought that the child at that time had grown up and become the vessel responsible for one country, I was touched by the length of time until that, and I was even more touched by the success of the human resource development policy initiated by the demon king.
We can leave the future of the human country to these young people.
I realized that this veteran didn't belong here.
The garrison retreat was completed, and the last time I left, the tribe gave me a bouquet of flowers for a farewell ceremony.
There, I suddenly wept.
No matter how beautiful things are, we are the occupiers.
Since he was an invader who had succumbed to the war and embarked on it without saying whether or not, I didn't even think that he would be grateful or even resented for trying to govern with mercy.
And the moment when all that was done in the land was rewarded.
It was I who had returned home, but at that time, I had already firmly resolved to retire from the Demon King's Army.
The situation has changed dramatically.
The demon king's army, which ended the war and played its most important role, has also been forced to reform and progress in disarmament.
Many of the soldiers are already out of the ranks, looking for new jobs or living in hiding on pensions.
In that case, even if the unarmed veteran returns, he won't be able to find a place.
Am I no longer a useless person not only from the human country, but also from my homeland?
After returning to Japan, I headed first to the demon king's station, and fulfilled my visit to the promised demon king.
I knelt among the throne and reported to my lord, Demon King Zedan.
"All the missions in the Human Nation have been completed without any problems."
"It was a big deal."
I am happy that I was able to work under this man.
I have been a soldier since the generation of the former Devil King Baal, but the fullness of my military service has been misplaced since I moved to the generation of Zedan.
It may be the last happiness in my army's life to end his military career in this world.
I tried to cut out the last of my retirements by making unnecessary progress in the reporting countries.
"Now, Malvastus, I want to talk to you about your new assignment."
"Yes, however..."
"A new assignment from beyond the arrowhead to petition for retirement..."
Isn't it really something that breaks my nose?
"I'm going to understand what the Lord wants to say. As Viceroy, I am committed to rebuilding the human nation. Such a great task would be good for Hanamichi. But I still need a man as diligent as Sir."
"Hahah...!?"
"It seems that Mamoru is struggling alone to take the reins of Belfegamilia." And from now on, we will launch a full-fledged diplomatic service with the Human Republic. It would be very helpful if someone was familiar with the situation. In the meantime, why don't you take the form of retirement, consult the Military Command as a part-time consultant, and help me get to the Foreign Affairs Department? "
That means you have two missions...!?
Damn it, I think I'm going to be the busiest person in my life to hide.
"I thought I had accomplished one thing and found out the happiest feeling..."
Perhaps happier than that, it is still necessary to accomplish everything.
