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

"Now go to sleep," everyone left the guest room with Grandpa Elvis's words, and Takeo, Alice and Mia also returned to the bedroom.

Takeo put on the hot water in the bath that was already routine, bathed Alice and Mia first, in the meantime graffiti in the study, gently dried Alice and Mia's hair after bathing, took a bath herself and now comes back to her bedroom.

"It was a good bath.

and Takeo comes back to his bedroom.

"Welcome back, Master Takeo.

and Alice sits back on her bed and greets her with a smile.

Mia is uttering at the desk beside her bed.

Takeo sits next to Alice.

"Mia, if you're sleepy, should I sleep in my room?

"Huh... good night, Lord, Dear Alice.

"Good night, Mia.

"Good night, Mia. You're going back to your room, aren't you?

"Ha no..."

And, Mia flies off her desk but flies super low to Takeo's study.

Takeo walks behind Mia to the door that leads him to the study with him, and when he opens the door a little, Mia walks in.

Make sure Mia gets inside the study, Takeo closes the door and comes back to Alice.

"I don't know, Mia seems tired, too.

Takeo laughs bitterly.

"Yes, well it's obvious, isn't it?

Because I was surrounded by as many people as I was close to for the first time.

Alice also laughs bitterly.

"And the inhabitants of the city here weren't afraid of fairies, were they?

"In this country, the perception is that fairies are harmless to humans and animals, even if they play light pranks.

"I see... but that's just a story, isn't it?

"Right. So isn't it unusual to see that it was just a story, one way or the other?

"Hmm... is that right?

"Master Takeo, what can I do for you?

"No, at first Mia said she was ready to be put in a spectacle hut when I caught her.

... Thought I was in good enough spectacle hut condition to feel like today.

"It's unusual... so I think we're in this condition for a few more days.

... and still, if you go outside every day, you won't come near them, will you?

"I hope so.

Well, if you're near me or Miss Alice, I can protect you.

Miss Alice, please take care of Mia.

"I don't mind.

And you had a good meal at Mia's green fruit shop today.

"Yeah, at first glance... that went to the deepest apple, too.

"I hear your uncle and aunt were in the back looking delicious for a gift, right?

"Huh? Really?

Maybe Mia can see the fruit.

"Oh, you'll get the example booze tomorrow, won't you?

Shall I ask Mia to choose the fruit for it?

"That's good. Shall I buy apples, oranges, tomatoes or something?

"Sounds like you'll meet delicious alcohol.

"Yeah."

Takeo and Alice laughed at each other.

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

The carriage is running well.

Earlier, a small pause had been made by a village along the street to change horses, but a decree had arrived from Elvis Mansion to receive a message.

King Azpar and William devise with a difficult face.

Layla is writing admirably.

"... no way metastatic magic and haha..."

"It's about as much as Count Elvis urgently teaches us, so... you must have been quite surprised.

"Oh, I shouldn't have had any users in the last hundred years, but...

I'll have to ask Grandpa when I get back to Wang Du.

"Right, that's all you've got right now.

And then there's the instructions. Is that a serious patterning?

"Right, I guess the bedroom should change in about a week.

"Let all royalty implement it.

"Right.

King Azpar and William nod.

and

"... that message was weird.

Leila says as she writes.

"Hmm? Leila, what's up?

"No, that message... was kind of uncomfortable, so..."

"Hmm? Really?

"... Leila, who do you think said that message?

"... it must be Mr. Takeo.

Leila looks up at William's question and worries a little before she says.

"Um... what about that heart?

"I don't think Grandpa or Frederick would bother to say 'I discovered survival'.

I think I'll just report results like "Trace Discovery During Enemy Disposal" or "Get Information Better Than The Enemy".

I don't know why you put in the history... and what kind of situation would it be if there was only an auga and a goblin but you could interrogate me?

Besides, yesterday the soldiers were burning the bodies of the goblins together, and there's a survivor from that place?

It's unnatural.

Which means you'd better assume that when we were here, the interrogation... was discovering something we could talk about.

Grandpa and Frederick were mostly in the guest room with us.

Alice was home and asleep early, and...

Mr. Takeo was the only one who came back to the mansion.

... It's reasonable to assume from the circumstances that Mr. Takeo brought back the survivors.

... that? You said the interrogation was over, but there were no reports of life or death.

Then... I tried to talk to him, but I didn't know the details.

When we heard about it, did it come up with the rare word metastatic magic, so much so that it drew our attention to us?

Well, if Mr. Takeo thinks it's not a threat, he's going to let it go.

"Um, you're pretty sure Takeo's the mastermind of the cover-up.

However, Takeo would not be the only one who made the interrogation.

... maybe Takeo showed everyone survival after he left our mansion.

And now that we know from that survival that we used metastatic magic, the decree ran at the life of Count Elvis...?

"... neither Auga nor Goblin can talk to humans, can they?

So, I found a survivor... something I could talk to, and Mr. Takeo took me home...

Was it the size that wouldn't make any noise if you were traveling around the city?

What did Mr. Takeo find after that fight?

"At least Auga or Goblin would dispose of Takeo.

That battle allowed me to take a single hit on the Auga opponent.

The neighborhood will have the decisiveness to just dispose of without having to interrogate.

"I guess.

Well, Mr. Takeo will dispose of anyone who feels threatened properly.

Equivalent, you must have found something harmless for humans and animals...

Why did you say that when we were here?

"Um... it's about Takeo... wasn't it a surprise pain in the ass?

Or did you listen and sympathize...

Let's hear more about it when we come to Wang Du.

King Azpar and William, Leila, snorted.
