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

Everyone's attention goes to Takeo's right hand.

"Did you notice..."

Takeo drips... I didn't see any future developments.

"Yep. It wasn't done yesterday, so I was curious.

And North tells me.

Takeo conceptualizes... trying to talk.

"Yesterday, after you spoke to me, with Miss Alice..."

... the place solidifies...

"Oh... is that right?

North says as he pulls his face.

"We also have the approval of Count Elvis on the matter, but there is a slight problem..."

"What is it?

The soldier chief asks.

"I can't take off the ring I put on it.

If you look closely, the royal crest... "

"Huh!??

All who were on the spot harden.

"So the Elvis family is good, but by order of the Worst King's Capital, my fingers might go away..."

... the temperature of the field drops...

"And I've made the atmosphere on the field a little worse, but it's only going to be well.

"Dear Kitamizato... you're optimistic.

"Yeah. Because there's nothing I can do about it that I've done or can't take off.

Takeo laughs bitterly.

"All I have to do is appeal to the Elvis family.

Ha, and Takeo laughs.

"I don't know... that's fancy.

That's what North tells you.

"No. I'm freaking out right now.

Miss Alice will be fine, but I'm a civilian, right?

I'm willing to relax until you get here.

And when I laugh bitterly, other faces laugh bitterly.

"And at last, Miss Alice, too..."

The soldier chief says Stain Jimi with a distant eye.

Takeo found that the atmosphere alone made Alice loved by everyone in the city.

"I'm so sorry to be abrupt, but I also want to inconvenience you all.

and Takeo bows his head.

"No. It's many times better to marry someone who can easily come to a place like this than to marry a treading aristocrat.

When's the ceremony?

The soldier chief makes the inside of everyone a word.

"No. It's just an inner circle engagement, and now I'm waiting for the King's Capital to respond. Nothing has been decided.

------------------------

I do a lot of other things... for example, soldier platoons, roles, etc. and talk to everyone casually.

"Um... Dear Kitamizato.

North has suddenly changed the story.

"Yes, what is it?

"I'm sorry to bother you all of a sudden, but could you fight me?

"Here, North!

The soldier chief absurds his voice.

"... okay.

Takeo replies and gets up.

"Dear Kitamizato, because I don't ask why?

It seems strange that North doesn't ask why.

"I know how you feel.

Someone I love abruptly... and I can't believe I'm engaged to someone I don't know anywhere about either.

There's no way I can sort out my feelings even though I understand what I've decided above.

Then you'll have to work together to convince yourself.

"No way... Master Kitamizato..."

"Yeah, I meant to do that from the start.

... I just don't know how far I can stand because I don't know anything about martial arts.

and Takeo laughs bitterly.

"... thank you.

North had to bow his head and express his gratitude.

------------------------

Takeo and North, as well as a line of soldier and platoon leaders, made their way to the field outside the castle gate... to the exercise area.

Just like during the training of the recruit platoon, I decided to do it at the edge of the scene.

"... and before you do, can I have a word with you?

"Yes, what is it?

"Actually, here it is. I'm willing to use it as my future weapon, can I shoot one?

"Yeah, I don't mind.

Hear that word and aim for a tree about 50 m away.

"Bread" and hit a tree with sound.

Hmm. I know it would hit quite a bit, but I also thought it would be hard to hit with longer distances than that.

For now I thought I'd practice somewhere else.

"Dear Kitamizato... What's that now?

The soldier chief asks.

"It's a weapon called a small gun, but for now I've decided to start doing it in my hobby.

"Really?

"Excuse me, could you keep this and your jacket?

and Takeo give him a small gun, a coat and a suit jacket.

Wrap your Y-shirt arms around it and hold the knife you bought yesterday backwards in your right hand.

"... soldier captain, if I beat the North platoon captain and everyone comes at once, don't give me more than five.

Takeo whispers to the soldier chief.

"Yeah, five people will put you at the upper limit.

"Excuse me."

and Takeo thank you.

"Thank you for waiting, Captain North.

"Yes. Dear Kitamizato, may I?

"Yeah."

There is about 10 m free between the two.

"Tomas North, 1st Platoon Leader, Count Elvis Territorial Soldier... I'm coming.

"Takeo Kitamizato, who belongs to the Elvis family. I'll take it.

"" No!
