A little back, August 19th.

I returned to the Pierdora position and met His Majesty.

"Akira, what is this?

"As you can see, it's an offensive operation plan."

"... are you serious?

"I mean it."

The offensive against the town of Celihos was drawn up separately from the fighting forces and submitted to His Majesty.

This one takes the lead before a detailed operation for battle unit planning can be put in place.

What, there's nothing wrong with doing the offense because it's the same in itself.

The participating troops will not be demon king army units still stationed in Pierdora, but will put in a few elites based on the SS Regiment of the Demon King and the Fei Long Regiment.

It will not be necessary to send 30,000 troops into the town of Cerrijos, with an isolated expected population of 5,000.

Regardless, I'll pull out some troops because I want you to do something.

"Already in Devil's Capital, you can finish selecting the supplies you need and load them at any time. And then we will execute the operation as soon as His Majesty's permission has been granted."

"... are you serious?

"As I have said many times, I mean it"

The first phase of the operation, an air raid by the Flying Dragon Squad. He exhausts his enemies with the dropping of bombs that cause demonic stones to self-destruct, even the braces of flying dragons, and direct and repetitive attacks by the sorcery of riders.

In the second phase, he breaks through the streets of the mountains by the elite SS Regiment of Demon Kings and enters the town of Celihos to carry out his mission.

As the final stage, enter the Selected Demon King's Army Combat Unit. Flood into the city, occupy it completely, and complete the operation.

In the middle of the operation, massive resistance by the human army, withdrawn without imposing if there was a counterattack.

It's not even a town worth pushing down to.

"I see. Suitable for reason. This would also get Oliveira's approval - oh, that's not the right expression in this case. Does that mean you can fool Oliveira if you can be precise?

"Doesn't it still work for Your Majesty"

"Naturally, who do you think I am?"

His Majesty also cheated and failed the operation to obtain only the approval of Hanko.

If this happens, let's go with the next measure, the one who persuades His Majesty.

"Your Majesty, this operation has more significance than a simple 'offensive'"

"What do you mean?

"Yes. It is to inform mankind of the greatness and impartiality of His Majesty the Demon King and to improve our feelings for the Demon King's army. That would divide opinions on the part of mankind. As a first step, this operation is useful"

The Demon King's Army is not strong enough yet to handle it in a positive way against the human army, which strikes with overwhelming warfare and technical skill.

If you're in a situation like that, it's a strategy to counter it elsewhere.

If you can't do it with tactics, fight it with politics. This is war.

"It will not be a war if there is a favorable sentiment for His Majesty in mankind. At least, we can have disturbing molecules inside, which is pretty much in our favor."

And it will be up to His Majesty the Demon King to do with that divided pro-Demon King mankind.

"Yes, will it work?

"It doesn't have to work, it's not a huge damage"

And if it works, the Demon King's Army doesn't have to work to make a big profit.

Just a little, is it enough to discredit the station?

Well, trust from Commander Oliveira goes in the same direction as never before, so I don't care.

When he finished explaining so, His Majesty shook his head to the side.

"Oh man. It's not like you to come up with that. I can't believe you said that on your way east to build trust with all the departments. Besides, wasn't tactics and strategy out of specialty?

"... well, not that I thought about it"

What to hide, it was Mr. Sophia who thought about this.

Mr. Sophia said,

'... shouldn't we have pre built?

Apparently so.

The real thing is "I want to help mankind", but Jianmae is "Humanity Kills".

The true opposite is true and true, but that's the way it is in the world.

He also received the opinion that "It was common in the Demon King's Army before the reform of the barracks station, so it's okay for the barracks station to do something else".

A perfectly well done secretary. So it was worth talking to. Let's luxury something next time.

Well, after that, he kicked me about overtime. And between the eyebrows!

Although I don't want you to be a little gentler, I can worship what I can, so it's good. It was white, by the way.

"I see. I guess you're saying I'm finally an adult"

"... Huh? What are you talking about?

"We're talking over here. Now, if there's a strategic advantage, there's no difference in this operation. But the question is, what do we do with Oliveira, who insists on slaughter?"

Whatever, I'm thinking.

Son of a bitch, you can say whatever you want in an ops meeting. Let me tell you what I call the horror of a barracks unit.

"The operation will be carried out according to the plan just submitted. It's just too sudden an operation, so I hope you'll forgive me for making some mistakes."

"I see? But then, isn't the general in trouble, too?

"We'll keep the damage as low as possible. As for the barracks, if they fail, I hope the generals will manage to fight with just the supplies they've been given."

"What does Oliveira say? If I'm bad, I'll storm myself.

"My Lord Commander has a serious task to take command of the whole thing in the rear, so I'd appreciate it if His Majesty would also tell me to leave it to me regarding the barracks."

"I get it. - Totally, you're starting to say that too."

Yeah, totally.

It is tiring to say that the task of hiding the true meaning alongside the pre-construction.

I mean, what do you mean, I feel like I'm going to fail the barracks operation right now.

I might mistakenly send bread for a demon stone. They may send civil work tools, not swords or spears, to combat units.

Five thousand Demon Kings are currently scheduled to join the offensive, but just in case, we'll send another five thousand as spares.

Don't worry, it's probably a coincidence that it's the same as Celihos's expected population.

What, it's still an easier task than taking care of 30,000 troops.

Commander Oliveira will be fine as long as he takes command from the safe rear.

But the battlefield is in poor communication, so I'm not sure I can fully grasp the situation. It is precisely the fog of the battlefield.

The problem is that I make a ton of debts to people when I run this operation.

It is annoying to His Majesty the Demon King, who persuades Commander Oliveira to go through with this operation, to invite the SS the Demon King, who suddenly asked him to set up an unscrupulous operation and cooperate with it, and above all, to discredit the Army Station Station.

... I wouldn't have thought about such an unscrupulous thing if it was me a few days ago.

"Thanks to Sophia."

So I can't thank her enough. So you can owe her the biggest.

When I said that, His Majesty smiled.

"Pfft. That sounds like fun."

"Huh? Really?

I mean, what?

"Oh. Don't tell me what's going on."

Oh, I'm curious about that...

"Never mind. And you seem to think 'I owe you' against me, but you don't have to worry about that either, do you?

"... Yes? Oh, no, that's not..."

"What. I'm not saying this for no reason. That's when I said," I'll pay back what I owe you for Operation Perseus. "

Say, His Majesty smiled again.

When His Majesty gives these expressions, I feel they are mostly danced over His Majesty's palms, but let's not think about it now. Yeah.

His Majesty Hell Arche signed my, no, operational plan drawn up by our station.

The operation, which cannot be called this operation, has now been officially approved.

What happens to the rest......

"All the time, yes. Akira, what's the name of the operation?

"What? Is that the name of the operation?

"That's right. Surely Operation Perseus is also the name you gave it, isn't it?

No, it is, though.

"Then put it on again. It's just an 'operation' and it doesn't taste good."

Uh...

I don't have taste, so I'm not good at that. Uh,

"" Operational outline with disaster relief and support as the main focus for the emotional improvement of mankind against the Demon King's Army ""

"You've got no taste on top of it for a long time."

Right? I mean, it's the last time you used it, right? This.

Wait, wait. Wait.

I can't think of anything at all because I would use my brain's capacity to figure out how efficiently I could carry supplies if I had time to think about the name of the operation...

Yeah, when this happens, it's okay. Perceus, you've got the right idea!

"Then in Operation Mine Freund,"

Let's go with Operation Demonic Tomodachi, or Operation Sankai.

Hmm, I thought about it appropriately, but I guess it's a pretty good idea!

…………

"At least say something..."

The Demon King Army naming criteria were (after all) strict.
