Second Battalion Improvement Conference.

Or the First Demon King Army Reform Conference.

"Now that we have a fixed time, I would like to start a meeting"

Sponsored by His Majesty the Demon King Hell Arche, I am the facilitator of the proceedings.

Participants are generally the same.

What changed, however, was that Leona, chief magic research engineer from the Bureau of Development, and His Majesty the Demon King, who hosted it, attended this meeting immediately.

Quite intimidating to say clearly.

"... to borrow His Majesty's authority is a monster."

Before entering the subject of the meeting, someone said Boso.

He was hesitated by the boulders to speak with dignity and ill words in front of His Majesty like the other day.

But that's not what matters to me.

"Before we get into the subject of the meeting, I want to solve your misunderstandings"

"What? Are you going to give me an explanation?

And, the gendarmerie vampire speaks. It's like a gendarmerie, and it's like questioning.

"There is no reasonable reason to make an explanation. It's just a simple fact."

"Hmm?"

At the last meeting, there will be ramblings here, but not with the power of His Majesty the Demon King.

But I dare to smash the wall.

"The simple fact, it means that Hel Arche, the Demon King to whom you all pledge allegiance, is lacking in vessels as Demon King and has gained the status and authority that his throne does not deserve. Therefore, I declare unequivocally that I do not intend to borrow the authority of the Hell Archer, who sits in a privileged position in disproportionate proportions."

Moments later, inside the conference hall, I blurted.

The blurring increases, and the words that pop up become anger and curse and pierce me.

"- Are you insane!

"This is a disrespectful enough statement! Gendarmerie, get this guy!

"Insult Your Majesty, or you have a human flair!

"I didn't know you would say His Holiness who is sacred and inviolable like that......!

This is just what happens if you publicly condemn His Majesty the Demon King.

Well, that's woven.

If you look properly in the upper seat, there was a demon king sitting there staring seriously at me without showing the wide face of the vessel, as usual.

Gentlemen, shut up for a moment.

The voice of the Demon King was not the usual voice of the Demon King.

The Demon King's eyes were not those of the usual Demon King.

Rather than that, I understood that this was the true demon king.

Because the SS standing beside His Majesty is freaking out to see how His Majesty is doing.

"It's been a long time, Akira. It's been hundreds of years since I've publicly accused you of me."

"I see. Apparently, the brave weren't in the Demon King's Army."

That's right. Because the brave are there to defeat the demon king.

"Akira, let me know why. In some ways, I don't know if it's worthy of disrespect or insult, or if it's something else."

"Okay. Then let me explain."

The Demon King looks over the place with a cold voice and eyes worthy of his title and says darkly, "Don't stand in the way of Akira's remarks". And at the same time, he's ready to kill me without hesitation.

"HELL ARCHE, Your Majesty. - Yeah, it's not the vessel of the Demon King, but as it stands, HELL ARCHE is on the throne of the Demon King, so I'll give it my honor once and for all - but Your Majesty is certainly strong. I am human, but therefore, I cannot handle witchcraft, nor have I seen it up close. Still, His Majesty's strength is one of the finest in history, as far as hearing enough reports for the credibility of many. That's what got the status of a person named Hell Arche calling himself the Demon King...... well, let's give up 10,000 steps and understand. But with regard to parts other than its strength, unfortunately, I hesitate to call His Majesty 'Your Majesty'."

"... go on"

"Yes. Your Majesty is strong. But in other parts, I'm not one who stands above people. His Majesty has a virtue. It certainly will be. There is human virtue. However, I think His Majesty lacks the 'ruthlessness' that goes against human virtue"

It's a good thing there's human virtue. As a boss, I can respect it.

With human virtue, the supreme power or the supreme authority can overlook even somewhat incompetent.

But the Demon King in the Demon King's Army is the supreme authority, the supreme decision maker, and the supreme judicial power.

Regardless of the fact that it is dense on one personality, the strength and morality of His Majesty the Demon King himself are not enough for those who carry it out.

The representative is ruthlessness.

The powerful must at times treat their subordinates and subjects ruthlessly and coldly.

Your Majesty is certainly the better. That's something I'll admit. As a supervisor.

I mean, that means she's not a man of power, she's just a boss.

Regardless, it is impossible for a boulder to say that a human being with a long title, a supreme authority, supreme decision maker and supreme judicial authority, possesses the skills and abilities necessary for each of his duties.

Even if he is the Demon King.

So thou shalt set aside beside the demon king, and set aside those who share in his role.

For example, you think the Demon King will reign as the supreme authority and power, have the Chancellor as the supreme decision-maker, and the Attorney General as the supreme judicial authority?

But His Majesty has done nothing about those measures.

"Your Majesty seems to think that you are fulfilling your duties as the Demon King by being on the front line yourself and blocking the hole, but you are mistaken for fulfilling all your duties as the supreme authority, power, decision maker and judicial authority. Or I'm deciding I didn't see it. I'm impeaching you on this occasion."

"You say I'm not doing what I'm supposed to do, right?

"Master Left. Let me explain this to you, Wonder, about the problems that were left out by His Majesty's neglect. … Sophia, please distribute the example material"

"I'm in awe. Dear Akira."

What Ms. Sophia distributes to all conference participants, including Her Majesty and the SS, is the material she has collected to death in the last two weeks.

And where the material would or would not go to everyone, the place was bothered again.

"This is...!

His Majesty was also leaking a surprising amount of voice. The SS standing beside him also has his eyes blackened and white.

On the other hand, some guys are blue-faced enough to be funny.

"Akira, did you look into this?

"… precisely what I have compiled with the help of Sophia Wolff and the Commander of the Urko Transport Corps"

"... well. I see."

His Majesty meditated his eyes and nodded again and again as he was convinced.

And he was sitting opposite me, a gendarmerie vampire barking.

"This stuff is cod!

"No, it's not cod out. It is the 'cancer' and 'pus' of the long abandoned Demon King's Army, and evidence of His Majesty's 'neglect'".

"What proof... this is up to fabrication! It's disrespectful to give such a thing to His Majesty!

"You have no right to disrespect this issue."

Because this is the list of those who were committing injustice in the Demon King's Army.

I have your name, too, Mr. Gendarmerie Vampire? And also the human name of the Intelligence Agency and the Devil's Capital Defense Command...

The wrongdoing of those whose names are mentioned here is simple. I did the following, a rat who said that it would leave supplies out of poorly managed warehouses.

"What proof do you have!

"Proof? There's plenty of it, isn't there? I guess it's because the controls have been too dodgy to leave evidence. Something about a convoy warehouse."

Since I arrived, the control of the convoy warehouse has been strengthened.

But the information is not well known.

I had no particular reason to, and I lay low to highlight the results at this meeting, but I didn't expect this to happen.

In other words, there were many cases of crates containing supplies disappearing from warehouses that were supposed to have been tightened up.

Besides, the only contents of the crate that disappeared were alcohol, demon stones, and other supplies that would contain a lot of gold if sold off in the city well. Now we know that there are fraudulent cases first.

If it turns out there's an injustice, then it's easy to find the culprit.

You can ambush him. Examine backwards and causality without catching them immediately afterwards. Hold on to the evidence, too.

"You're a Red Devil stone in the Devil's Guild, aren't you?

"... you don't know what you're talking about. Stop making baseless arguments."

"That's rude of you to say. He said he had testimony and evidence."

The testimony of the guild officials was, of course, also found the deed.

Though I laughed a little to say that the civilian guild is more documentarian than the Demon King Army or something.

... Oh, yeah. I came up with something good. I think I'll gather personnel from the private sector. If it's backward affairs, not front-line work, we'll probably get a lot of people together. I mean a public servant.

All right, when this is over, let's make a quick suggestion to His Majesty.

"The testimony, the deed and the doings must have been fabricated! It's false evidence to try to plunge me, and to elevate your position!

"No, if I'm doing this to my status desire, I'm not supposed to mention His Majesty in the meeting split. Well, that would be good. It's more about you than that. There is evidence of immobility."

That's what I say, then I put the box on the table.

It's a crate I put down. Same crate stored in the convoy warehouse. However, the difference is that this was not in the convoy warehouse.

"Found from a guild called 'Brad Nahato'." Brad Nahato "is definitely... the guild your brother is chairing, right?

"... so what. It's just a box."

"No, it's not just a box. Unfortunately."

Yeah, it's not just a box. As mentioned, it's the same crate that's kept in the convoy warehouse. In that evidence, this box has great features.

"You have a red note, don't you? This is only painted on the crate used by the convoy. That's why they found it in your brother's guild warehouse."

…………

Finally, the vampire shut up. I turn not to His Majesty the Demon King, nor to me, but to the direction of the day after tomorrow.

"I thought it was a little overbearing, but Mr. Sophia also looked into the guild's accounting books. That guild, the Red Devil Stone, whose origins are unknown, is brought in from somewhere on a regular basis for some reason even though the management is a fire truck, right? Retrospectively, about 18 years ago."

…………

"By the way, how many years ago did you become a Gendarmerie commander?

…………

It was 18 years ago. If you look back at the HR records, you'll find out. Although the administration struggled to find the documents in the docket.

But vampires are apparently bad creatures who don't give up.

"So say what! I didn't do anything, for food! Imitate the gendarmerie monkey to the habit of incompetent people who can do nothing! And even his majesty is insulting and abusive! Your Majesty, with your permission to acquit this man on this occasion..."

"-Nahat!"

Nahat, I see that's his name, and I convinced him in a weird way. Probably won't need to remember though.

"Nahat, keep your mouth shut until the meeting is over"

"- Huh"

The circumstantial evidence suggests that this vampire is black.

And there is physical evidence that he says was fabricated. Your Majesty has no reason to believe the words of such a man.

Akira, keep going.

"Yes, with your permission, I will proceed with Your Majesty's impeachment"

The biggest problem with this case is that if we do a little research, this kind of case will come out worn out.

I mean, it's not a difficult case, but it wasn't too shabby. That also means that the organization itself, which says the Demon King Army, has done nothing.

Organizations that have lost their ability to purify themselves. What a terminal.

"This is not by any means a difficult case of fraud. You'd rather be easy. Even His Majesty the Wise Demon King couldn't have been more unaware of that. Isn't that right, His Majesty the Demon King Hell Arche?

……………………

The next time I shut up, it was His Majesty's. However, his eyes are sharply shooting this way.

"If you are large enough to miss the excessive injustice of your subordinates, you are disqualified as a monarch"

If you have not gone too far, you may miss out somewhat. There is.

It's a reason to say that no great injustice will happen because you're staying for the injustice of small things. That is acceptable in some circumstances.

But if this kind of thing is done flatly, and it's corrupting the quality of the entire organization, it can't be called a trivial matter anymore.

"Sire, who are you?

…………

It was a long silence.

There was so much silence there that it could be felt forever.

It was His Majesty's Rin voice that broke that silence. Voice like a demon king.

"I am the Demon King. I am the Demon King, who will unite this continent."

With that word, the Second Demon King Army Improvement Conference was concluded.

---

The Second Demon King Army Improvement Conference ended with no discussion of improving the barracks in the end.

But from that day on, His Majesty the Demon King took direct command to carry out a rapid reform of the Demon King's Army.

The gendarmerie commander of the vampire who committed the injustice, saying Nahat or something, was naturally detained on top of the change. The same fate was followed by those who had been involved in him and had illegally enjoyed the benefits.

Apart from Nahat, there were others who worked wrongfully, but with regard to them too, they received a great and small punishment due to the magnitude of the case.

And those who scolded and insulted His Majesty the Demon King in public, or I...

"Akira. Proceed with the reform of the barracks as punishment for cursing me. I won't let the others complain. … but no brave man would ever think about turning against you if he were in that meeting."

That is.

I mean, nothing's the same as before.

"I chilled this one. I can't believe I impeached His Majesty the Demon King..."

"I don't know what else to do. That's all I could think of."

Bold, massive reforms should still be pushed somewhat forcefully with strong leadership rather than discussion.

I don't have that vessel, and His Majesty was still the only one to do it.

"But now, we can finally move forward. Mr. Sophia. I'd like to ask you a few questions, would you mind?

"Say what, Master Akira"

Rarely did Mr. Sophia smile a little and do exactly what she was told.
