My name is Heligene.

An elite soldier of a glorious demon race.

It was......

Not now.

The other day, I was discharged almost in a compulsory manner and now I am useless.

He was praiseworthy and unreliable.

How did this happen?

Speaking of the Demon King's army, it was a subject that everyone feared as the most powerful demon king's knee and the most powerful battle group in the world.

Respected as the perfect guardian deity for allies, and feared as an absolute reaper for the enemy.

Where the Demon King's army appeared, the bodies of the enemies piled up, and everyone shuddered just to hear its name.

It was also my pride to belong to such a demon king army.

I continued to fight for my destiny to be the demon king's limb and destroy his enemies, taking on the role of the most powerful and unstoppable.

It ends suddenly and suddenly.

After all, the war was over.

The war between the human race and the demon race, which had lasted for hundreds of years, suddenly came to an end, and peace came.

At the same time, the Demon King's army was launching large-scale disarmament.

It was announced that the destruction brigade, which had recruited early retirees and lasted until December in wartime, would eventually be reduced to six.

You don't need a murder weapon in an era without battle?

After the end of the war, the Demon King's army, named after the sword spear of the demon race, gradually shrank its rudder, and there was no shadow to be seen back when it was active.

The officers of our same period also raised their hands one after the other to hope for retirement, and received more retirement allowances to take up new positions, and those who did not were transferred to in-house jobs.

Only I stayed on the front line until the end.

Otherwise, I wouldn't be proud.

I entered this path longing for the strongest Demon King army.

However, now that it is peaceful, who can be convinced that it is no longer necessary?

I continued to pursue the most powerful Demon King army ever.

Even if I'm alone.

I thought that day and night training was dawning, but recently it was time for me to pay my annual tribute.

When I was called to the Human Resources Division, I was asked to be transferred to the reserve on the spot where I appeared unavoidably.

Besides...

"... adventurer?"

"Yes, it's a unique occupation in the human country, but this time, it was adopted as part of the reduction of the Demon King's military personnel."

The personnel of the Human Resources Division should also be a member of the army of the demon king, but the response was more administrative and the officials were much better.

That's why I don't want to admit that this guy is one of my kind, and I look down on him.

"An adventurer is a profession that protects people's lives by buying dangerous things..." Human countries are fragile in politics. Without such movement among the people, we would not be able to live in peace. "

"Hmm...!?"

"While it has nothing to do with our demons, it has recently come to the forefront of the debate on disarmament. In short, the social role of the adventurer may be in the hands of our demon king army."

Hmm?

"In other words, eliminating monsters and managing dungeons. There's talk about whether we can entrust the adventurer with what the Demon King's army is doing right now."

That's ridiculous!!

Explore dungeons to defeat monsters... Now that the Human-Magic War is over, it's probably the only stage where the Demon King's army can stand up in battle!

You want to take our last pride!?

"So, Mojo Herrigene." I have a suggestion for you, why don't you become this adventurer? "

Huh?

According to the explanation of the Human Resources Division, although disarmament and staff organization have advanced considerably in the past few years, the target number of personnel has not yet been reached.

It was said that by transferring the remaining Demon King servicemen to the adventurer, we would be aiming for further reductions.

"As I said earlier, the duties of an adventurer often overlap with those of a Demon King soldier." Changing jobs will minimize confusion. I don't understand the excuse that people who have been sitting here "don't know how to live other than military personnel". "

"Nuuu...!?"

"This time, those who have heard about the transfer to an adventurer will continue to have seats in the Demon King's army in the form of reserves." In the future, if anything should happen to you, you will return to the army and risk your life for the demons and the demon king again. "

The words were decisive, and I decided to leave the Demon King's army.

When the war was over and I was deprived of the chance to fight monsters, I thought it would be impossible to remain a fighter even if I remained in the army.

If you lose the chance to fight so perfectly, it will be the only lukewarm life of practice and desk work in the army.

In that case, even if I lost the proud title of Demon King's Army, it seemed better to be an adventurer who could put himself in the actual battle.

Transferring on the spot... Transferring jobs?... I signed the delivery and finally agreed to leave the Demon King's army.

“It helped, a few years after the beginning of the disarmament movement. There are many stubborn people who have remained until now.”

"... you seem to be at peace with me." Is it okay for desk workers not to worry about losing their jobs? "

"At least I tried to say it back with the utmost irony..."

"Oh, working from home doesn't mean there's no risk of restraint." Rather, it will be prioritized and shredded from places where there is no urgency. I'll say it myself, I've decided to retire all month. ”

Huh?

Is that so?

"Unlike you guys who have always fought on the front lines, we don't have this kind of treatment." After retirement, I have no choice but to marry and enter the family. The other day, I made the eighth match, and I was able to go around with the right person. You can leave the workplace without worrying. ”

"Female officers said.

What do you say...? Congratulations?



This is how I ended up with a new life.

From today on, I am not the demon king's soldier Heligene, but the demon adventurer Heligene.

I started to feel like I was being ridiculous.

I was supposed to be a proud Demon King soldier, so why do I have to go into this unaffiliated and foilless profession nowadays?

After a few days away from the Demon King's army, I also looked into my profession of becoming an adventurer, but the more I looked into it, the more disappointed I became.

In short, adventurers are people who are the protagonists of society.

Disobeying the rulers of time and trying to solve the problem by ourselves, the rogue formed a group.

That's the Adventurer's Guild.

Each of its members is now called an adventurer.

I can't live with it, so I have to take on dangerous and adjacent work.

It was a completely different way of life than the honored Demon King army.

Do you mean to entrust all the demonic dungeons and monsters to such helpless people?

Did you do the job that the Demon King's army has done so far?

I'm not convinced at all.

It is humiliating that our demon king army, which should have won the war in the first place, imitates the defeated human country.

Even personally, I would like to work with the former military adventurer who came from the Demon King's army and become a vigilante to protect the Demon Kingdom.

"That's what I was thinking..."

An adventurer from a human country?

I get confused when I hear the news.

According to foreknowledge, adventurers are real...... professional adventurers are dispatched from the human country, so they are told to learn about it.

It's a real technique... it's a professional technique.

Bullshit.

No matter how many places you take, you're a rogue.

It didn't even extend to our regular Demon King army.

If so, I'll show you the strength of our Demon King army and let you understand the limits of the outlaws.

Once it became clear that adventurers and others were useless, the demon kingdom's monster countermeasures would still be taken care of only by the demon king army, which might lead to the return of our demon king army.

The adventurer was more dependable than I thought.

Hey, thank you very much ~

Don't rely on things and hips.

Are you sure this is the proud professional adventurer of the human kingdom?

Something went wrong.

... no, it's more convenient to have someone who looks so weak.

Let's show off our strength and horror as much as we can, and drive them back with our bodies.

If you pull this weak-hearted guy into the dungeon, he must be scared right away.

The dungeon is a terrible place.

I'm looking forward to it now.
