I haven't lived my life that long.

If I may say to the old men of Parliament, I am still half servant.

But by far the strangest experience I've ever had should be the most memorable day of my life.

August 13th.

An earthquake struck, a tsunami struck, and many people took their lives.

I have seen the sight of human lives being lost by war many times, but I may say this is the first time I have seen a moment when that happens in a natural disaster.

The only streets that were connected to the pan-Human coalition base were blocked, much of the supplies that were in the town were flown, and those who survived were also put at risk for their lives.

That's when they came.

Barbarians.

Or the enemies of God to be destroyed.

The aliens, called the Demons and the Subhumans, worship the bakery that proclaims the Demon King.

When they arrived, everyone thought they'd come to invade this town without attacking it in the wake of the earthquake.

So I fought back desperately, and I wondered how I could make my life beg succeed.

But the first wave of attacks was due to the pancage.

Because it was so odd, everyone was vigilant about it and didn't get their hands on it.

The second wave of attacks, the input of ground troops. But they didn't fight back against us, and they said so.

"I want to talk to a representative"

and.

As for coming to invade, it is a strange statement.

Maybe it's not an invasion.

I thought so. I spoke as a delegate in praise of the confused soldiers.

And I talked to them.

The terrible presence I once saw on the battlefield. with the Demon King, the most abominable being on earth.

But such a demon king suggested with a gracious voice and expression.

"We're ready to help you."

I know perfectly well that I'm not here to invade.

Really, I'm here to reach out to you for support. And very seriously, seriously, is.

I don't think there was any choice in this matter.

Many were on the verge of starving to death, and the idea of being "abandoned" in the minds of the inhabitants of the town regarding the failure to come of the support of the pan-Human coalition, which, after a week, was supposed to be on their side. Just don't tell anyone.

The question of which to believe, the Army of Humanity, which has abandoned itself, or their Demon King, which has reached out against the enemy, will no longer deserve to be debated.

So I, after asking questions about the anxieties and concerns that the inhabitants of the town would feel, lost to the belly worm and swallowed the Demon King's - no, His Majesty's proposal.

Soon afterwards, supplies began.

For the injured and sick, the Demon King's Army's own treatment was given after the consent of the person and the family.

I first saw something called witchcraft up close and was surprised by its effect.

If you find it works, the rest is domino knockout.

There is no more spiritual leeway left to think that we are enemies of humanity. Because it is a situation as the words say that the drowning grasp straw as well.

Regardless, it's not like there's anything wrong.

The able-bodied, the devout Cross, etc. took the initiative to provoke them to sell occasional fights.

Each time, someone from the Demon King's Army goes into a stop and wraps up the spot.

I also asked everyone in town to understand not to sell wasted fights against the Demon King's Army, my only lifeline. If you have the strength to fight and sell, do something for the victims.

Whether it had that effect or because of the efforts of the Demon King's Army, no one sells fights anymore, even if they are wary of the Demon King's Army.

On the contrary, some guys came out with a cooperative attitude towards them.

In one place, the kids seem to have fun with the dog-eared sub.

elsewhere, we are working with mankind and the Demon Nation on a body search,

Seeing this sight, we don't see why we're at war.

They have a different appearance, ecology, culture and language, everything.

In spite of that, we got the food that the Demon King's Army carried, and our strength and thinking returned.

And the emotions that come up in that situation couldn't have been what I said hatred or hatred.

What I thought when I was looking at them demons was something else.

That's when the report went up.

The Pan-Human Coalition is crossing the mountain. Tomorrow evening, I say we arrive here.

When I heard that, somehow, I said this.

"... I wonder why. It's only been about a week since I met you, and I'm in the mood to break up with my old best friend."

I don't know why, it would make sense.

To the Demon King's Army, we were saved.

A human being with such hatred for them may no longer be in this town.

Let's thank them now, even if spreading that good sentiment is the strategy of the Demon King's Army.

August 21st.

Before the dawn of that day, the Demon King's Army quietly left the town still ruling the darkness.

Leave some supplies behind.

"As you can see from that bonfire, the human army will be in this town shortly. Probably fine, but watch out for aftershocks and further tsunamis."

During his farewell to the Demon King's Army, the words that came out of them were not of a liturgical nature.

He said he was in charge of the barracks by making him an executive of the Demon King's Army named Akitsu Akira. Example, is the name of the person who appeared in Joshua's guess.

I see.

You mean Teng himself, who modernized the Demon King's army so far?

If so, I want to capture it here and find out.

But if you do that, you will be fought back by the Demon King, and first and foremost, you will return the favor with vengeance. You can't even do it.

So I gave him another word. Not a liturgical word, more useful to him.

"Akitsu-kun... Was it?

"Yes. What is it, Senator?"

He hastily replied, not expecting to be called off.

The age is the appearance that looks ten degrees below me, but the contents are a man who feels younger than that.

If we had met normally rather than in such a place, we would have gotten along oddly as a burning disciple of care.

"From now on, you should stop saying this"

"... Senator Burke?

His neck fell to the side. It's a face that doesn't know what you're talking about.

"No, don't be mad at me. Listen to me.

I don't know what position you are in within the Demon King's army, and I don't know what you and His Majesty are like. But it's easier to avoid this kind of behavior for any strategic purpose. "

The act of helping an enemy is, in a sense, a beauty story.

On many occasions, however, the conduct is "not only hypocritical, but also deserving of advantage".

If you did the same thing in the human army, you'd be the worst shot dead, good and hanged.

As for him, he didn't seem to, but he doesn't necessarily mean he can do it again and again.

"If I'm not saying I want to grieve those around you, I don't think we should do this."

I said that to this young, sweet little human being of your choice.

Akitsu Akira, on the other hand, scratched his head a few times and prefaced, "I'll keep it in my liver......"

"You nod, 'Yes, do you?' Because it's a funny story, isn't it?

"... haha. Yes, it is."

I laughed at his words.

I see. Sure. If you say so, I don't want to snort this one either.

... really, if we hadn't met in a place like this, he would. I'm sure we could have been good friends.

But he is an officer of the Demon King's Army.

I guess he is an important figure for the Demon King's Army that he even emerged in such a state that he was allowed to carry out such an unscrupulous operation.

- So I said goodbye to him, Akitsu Akira.

"Well, good luck - that's a strange story too - please stay well until you die"

With that said, after Akitsu-kun took a slightly odd form in his expression,

"Then I, too, will pray for Senator Burke to be elected in the upcoming elections"

and returned it.

We exchanged hard handshakes there and broke up.

With a benefactor of life, my best friend, who will probably never see me again in the future.

That afternoon, the rescue of the human army finally arrived.

"Commander Burke, are you all right?!?"

"I've been waiting for you, Joshua. As always, you're slow on your feet."

"Sorry! But how you endured without support for a week!

"Oh, my bad luck."

I laid down a warrant on all the survivors of the town that they might be punished for "being a traitor to the enemy" when it comes to the Demon King Army thing, but it will probably be pointless soon.

At that time, shall I bother you with how I am going to re-elect you in next year's parliamentary elections?

"And Commander. Earlier, a reconnaissance airship contacted me and told me that there was a demon king army shadow in the street. They're not going to attack us here, but we need a bombing request."

Yes, Major Joshua Johnston tried to make a suggestion, so I blocked the word.

"Rather than that, support for the victims is paramount. If you have time to drop the bomb, help a lot of people."

"Yes! Sorry!

He rushes to the victims.

Is it the guy who says sad military sex who tries to chase more than rescue? But now, there will be no pursuit against the Demon King's Army.

- Now let's say zero loan, shall we?

A human Akitsu-kun.
