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

Alice's pregnancy was discovered... and the maids on duty until morning were moving in a hurry.

Thorough cleaning of Takeso's bedrooms and bathing areas he uses every day, rearranging small items to prevent Alice from falling and injuring herself in the passageway, checking that there are no wood scraps in the windows and doors, Frederick, the head maid and the head chef coordinating their future contributions, etc... it's a big busy.

Takeo and the others waited for the room to be cleaned quietly.

"... somehow, it's been a big deal."

Alice puts a thin blanket on her stomach and says while drinking a cup of warm barley tea.

... it's been a long time.

For now, Alice, Takeo, congratulations. "

Thank you, Grandpa.

“Thank you.”

Alice and Takeo reply to Grandpa Elvis.

"How about that? I don't think I'm going to be a parent."

Grandpa Elvis asks Takeo.

"Nh... I can't really feel it.

It feels like it is a child.

Of course, I'm glad, but I'm also glad you made me think about it.

I'm wondering myself, but I'm calm. ”

Takeo says.

"Hmm, that's how a man feels."

What about Alice? "

"I'm looking at the moment when Jesse and Layla found out."

I thought, "What are you in a hurry for?" But I don't know what to do when I'm told.

I'm relieved to have Konoha and Pana... but I really don't know what to do.

This is confusion, isn't it? ”

Alice says.

"Hmm... neither Alice nor Takeo are cool."

"Well, you'll feel it day by day."

Takeo, Alice, when are you going to publish this?

For as an aristocrat, if he had a child, he would have reported it to the king's city. "

"I see... it's true that the stable period of pregnancy was five months pregnant... I'd like to report it in a month, but I think I'll tell Gina and Smith right away."

"Hmm... then Leila and His Majesty will find out."

Well, I guess the King's City will accept the formal offer.

We need to let Viktor and the others know right away. ”

Yes, Takeo-sama, that's tomorrow, isn't it?

“Yeah, I'll talk to you tomorrow when I get to the lab.

Elvis, do we have to go to King's Landing? "

"Takeo, I know how you feel, but I have to get to work.

But even this time, I asked your Majesty... Oh, yeah, Gina's reporting this morning.

I forgot what I kept because of Alice's pregnancy. ”

Grandpa Elvis takes out the vial and places it in front of Takeshi.

"Excuse me."

Takeo opens the vial and reads it out.

"... the declaration of war from the Demon Kingdom is coming soon, so come to the King's City..."

"If the war is scheduled for mid-August, it will be declared in mid-July."

When will Takeo go? "

"Nh... Ideally, you should go and come home suddenly... even if you go with a horse, it will be a round trip for 8 days."

Takeshi says while thinking about it.

"Usually it's 10 days to get back and forth just by moving the horse."

Well, there's no way.

Is it about two days over there? "

"That's right... there might be a few more of them.

What day was it today? ”

Today is June 26.

"Hmm... I'll have a meeting with you on June 30th."

I was thinking of going with Alice this time if it was true, but I was pregnant.

I will go with someone from the laboratory this time.

Tomorrow is the adjustment, right? ”

“I'll be waiting for you quietly.

I've made a lot of things with Suzune-san, and I'd like to see the progress. ”

"Well, there's Konoha, too."

There's not much to worry about, but it might make it harder to go out alone, but if you spend your time walking as usual, you might be able to exercise. ”

Takeo nods.

"I'll take care of it."

Alice doesn't mind if you spend your time as usual.

It's okay to talk about a hungry child. ”

Civiconoja says.

“I'll take care of it.

Konoha is more of an expert than I am.

But who goes with me when I go out? ”

Takeshi tilts his head.

"It seems that Frederick is thinking about that too."

Isn't there only one maid from the children? "

Alice will tell you.

"Well, it's not like I'm going to fight anyway."

It just feels like you're looking around so you don't suddenly bump into me.

I don't think I need to worry about that. ”

Grandpa Elvis nods.

"I always do, don't I?

So, what were Grandpa and Takeo talking about? "

Alice asks.

"Hmm, it's about the current territory."

I talked about the chicken farms, Worcester Sauce, and the streets to the realm of His Highness William.

The artificial lake seems to be a little late.

I heard that after the testing of the Roach's crane. "

"... are you going to test me?"

Takeshi asks back.

"Hmm, that's the kind of report I got."

Indeed, was it a crane to assemble a containerized wagon? "

"That's more serious than a prototype."

"Hmm, it looks like you're going to make a small loan."

The test results should be reflected in the artificial lake.

So, the artificial lake might stretch a little... well, I don't think the person in charge is in that much of a hurry, so I think we'll make it in time. "

"I see... I'll listen to that."

"Hmm, please."

So... let's hear from Takeo. "

Grandpa Elvis says.

"Hmm... can I just say that... it's about conventional warfare?"

I don't know the schedule, but I know the opponent's lineup. ”

Takeshi started talking.
