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

Takeo and Alice had come as far as to reach the Elvis Mansion soon.

"Miss Alice, you've taken a little while.

"Yeah, you stopped by the grocery store on the way.

"No, I was going to go buy paper and a pen.

Then you bought too much of that and this.

"Right. Grocery stores go by fast, don't they?

Takeo and Alice walk with a bitter smile.

and arrived at Elvis Mansion.

Frederick was just there when I walked in the front door.

"Welcome back, Miss Alice, Master Takeo.

"I'm home, Frederick.

"Good day, Mr. Frederick. I'm back.

"Except for the two of you, we have finished dinner,

I'm in the guest room now.

"Really?

Then we'll have dinner, too, and then we'll head to the guest room.

"I'm in awe.

and Alice and Takeo headed to the dining room.

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

Alice knocks on the guest's door.

From the inside, I said, "Go ahead." He confirms that permission will go down, opens the door, and Alice and Takeo enter the room.

Inside were Grandpa Elvis and Smith and Frederick.

"Grandpa, I'm back.

"Mr. Elvis, we're back.

"Alice, Takeo, welcome back.

"Smith, we're back.

"Smith boy, we're back.

"Welcome back."

and Alice and Takeo also take their seats.

Frederick makes the tea, puts it in front of the two of us, and backs off a little bit from everyone.

"Well, I was wondering if Alice would like me to do a report on Takeo today.

"Okay.

In the morning I was teaching Master Takeo to ride horses.

I was doing repetitions of riding, letting it go, stopping, and getting off.

"Hmm. Takeo, how was it?

"No, you always thought horses were big.

"It's a weird feeling.

"Yes. Dear Takeo, that sentiment is a little weird.

"No. It's weird from the people whose lives with horses are normal,

It's a natural feeling that it's from someone who lives without a horse.

Takeo laughs bitterly.

"Is that what it is?

Grandpa Elvis says that.

"In the meantime, you were impressed that you could ride a horse and move it.

Because I wondered what I would do if I didn't move at first.

"Um, it's one step first.

"Yeah."

"So, then we practiced small arms in an exercise area outside the castle gate.

"Ho, how'd it go?

"Master Takeo hits 36 of 40 shots targeting trees 50 m away. I was the hit of 8 of 10 shots.

"Did you also, Alice?

"Yes, it was interesting.

"Then, by the magic store,

There was an addition of small arms and bullets, wasn't there?

"Yes. If you negotiate among your requests to collect bullets that you also buy defective stock of small guns,

You've also added 4 cloves.

They say the addition of bullets is 600 rounds.

"In the evening, I brought a small box when tailor Ralph and magic store Taylor arrived.

I carried it to Master Takeo's study and left it there.

"Thank you.

"Uhm. How many do you have at Takeo's disposal right now?

"I have 7 small guns and 2 of them are being remodeled.

Bullets currently have 740 rounds left.

"Um, what's going to happen in the future?

"There are 5 more cloves in circulation around here.

This number is confirmed by Taylor from the Magic Store at the supplier, so I was wondering if it was almost certain.

So up to 5 more cloves. You have a minimum of 0.

An increase is also expected in 0-300 rounds for the number of bullets.

"Um, it's good.

"It's turning out better than expected.

"So, I went to the furniture store and decided on furniture for Bette and Master Takeo's study.

"Um, did you have a good one?

"Yes. Privately, I think I could have chosen to sleep neatly..."

"Hmm? What's wrong?

"Master Takeo? Why didn't Master Takeo touch his bet once?

"... that? With that said, you didn't even touch it.

Takeo laughs bitterly.

"Yeah. Are you sure it was just me?

"I don't mind. Alice, I was trying to find a way to fit your daughter's body.

I have no problem.

"By the way, what I chose was a slightly stiff bet, no problem?

"Yeah. I thought that was all I had in that, too.

"Um, isn't it soft?

"By the way, what's the mainstream here?

"Um, in aristocracy, soft is seen as a luxury.

"I see... that's why you had that unusual soft bed.

"Huh? Is it unusual?

Smith asks questions.

"Yes. At my place, soft beds are not preferred.

It is said to cause back pain and stiffness.

Ideally... Smith, can you stand up?

"Yes."

"Okay, turn around.

"Yes."

and Smith turns sideways, as he was told.

"It is ideal to maintain this attitude.

"" "" Huh?
