A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World

In the training area of the test platoon.

There was Meyer and the lab's test platoon, Rack.

"... is this a small gun?"

I'm looking at a small gun with a rack in it.

"The official name is Type 01.

Surely Rack saw the station chief shoot him, too? "

Meyer says.

"The shape is different from that time!I want to watch it slowly!

... that doesn't feel like magic equipment. "

"It's not magic equipment.

It's a physical attack that flies a chunk of iron. "

"Heh... are you flying iron...

What about Lord Kitamizato's thick little gun? "

That's a magic tool.

Special ice that is not iron is flying.

However, since the magic consumption is intense, only the station chief can use it for now. "

That's what Meyer says, but he's actually lending me a spare for Takeo, and he's starting to shoot in front of the test platoon.

"Hmm... is this the future issue?

How about a little gun? "

"When it comes to training, I don't know how to evaluate..."

"What are the good and the bad?"

"The good news is... small arms are an attack weapon in the first place.

The advantage is that magic can be transferred to other parts.

The bad thing is... you can only aim straight.

One shot at a time, but there's still a gap. "

"The magician attack we do is basically an attack from the launch, right?

It increases its attack power by hitting it to a certain extent and then shooting it diagonally, allowing it to attack over the heads of allied soldiers who are confronting the enemy, leaving each other's attacks uninterrupted, but rather synergistic.

You can't do that with a small gun. "

"Well, we can attack farther away than that."

"Then... I'll attack with a small gun first, and when I get close, I'll deal with it with a sword with a magic aid."

"... there must be a way to do that."

Meyer says, "That's what the director thinks."

"... a suitable weapon for the Information Squad (us)."

"Well, you have to follow any other person, and it's your job to come back as soon as possible in case anything happens.

I try not to break the magic of the attacker as much as I can.

Well, I know Rack is good around here. "

"Even Master Meyer said that he was the main guard in the Kinshasa Squad (former position), so he would have been questioned about his care and shielding skills."

"... but not to the station chief."

"Compared to such an out-of-standard...

Ah, the current commander of the Daiichi Kondo Squad, who took over, was training to stay while crying.

They said it was slower to activate than Master Meyer. "

"Well, the sooner you train, the sooner you King's Landing Guard won't be.

They may have habits, but they were finished when they came in first. "

"Right ~.

By the way, I'm the former deputy chief of the Daiichi Kondo Detachment (Furukabe). "

"Huh? He activates faster than me?"

"But that's what he said.

"Beyond Lord Meyer."

"Hmm??

Is that... is he mistaken? "

Meyer leans his neck.

"So, when will this little gun be deployed to the field or to us?"

"He said he was still training.

We haven't used it in practice yet, and we're just starting to train.

It's a long way to go, and a long way to go. "

"... is that so?

Thank you, but I'm normally focused. "

Rack looks at Burt and Forlet in front of the test platoon.

"It's more natural to guess at 200 meters than...

Fire and Blizzard deserve it, so don't let them take the same distance. "

"What does Lord Kitamizato want?"

"400 meters with that accuracy."

"Hah... it's a suitable weapon for more intelligence detachments (us).

So, what is the cylinder that Arkin is looking at? "

"Eyesight.

It is a device that can be seen about three times the size of a subject that is somewhat distant, called a scope.

It's hard to see what's 200 meters away, isn't it?

I'm checking where it hit the target. "

"I want it ~.

With that, surveillance missions don't have to go as close as they are now.

It's good to be able to reduce your physical danger. "

"... not right now, but the station chief said he was going to sell it to you."

"When will you come..."

"That's because I'm the director of our station.

I'll take it to the royal castle again. "

"I wonder when..."

"I wonder when ~"

Do you want to take it this time?

"I won't take it this time.

It's ridiculous to teach the demon kingdom, and I still don't feel comfortable using it in practice.

Proof that it's still just a substitute for training.

Well, if you take it, it's just the station chief.

We move more easily with swords and magic. "

"That's right.

Well, I'm going to follow the caravan, so I guess it's only the bandits who are careful. "

"As long as we can handle the bandits, there's no problem.

But there's a lot of traffic.

In the meantime, the Earl of Elvis will arrange transportation and provide some escort.

All we have to do is follow us from behind. "

"Roger that.

I will sightsee a lot. "

"Ah, that's fine.

If we leave... we'll be on our way home. "

"I guess.

The Lord in the neighborhood hates humans. "

"They say he's the nephew who drove out Lord Victor.

The journey is led by Simona, a merchant caravan for the King of Demons.

I don't think you're going to do it.

We're the only ones left from Simona's shop to Seki. "

"... I don't think the lord himself is a guest of the Demon King Kingdom in a way."

"I wouldn't do that, either domestically or abroad.

But the bandits have nothing to do with it. "

"Only the director and his subordinates are worried."

"... my station chief is noble, and your wife is a civilian, right?"

"I know what my wife can do.

Kitamizato goes without saying.

If they don't move, we'll be able to protect them with Burt and Foret. "

"Well, we're here, too, and if it's not too much of a problem," he said.

"That's right."

Rack and Meyer nodded.
