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

The wind stopped perfectly.

Alice and Mia finished the water ami, got the pan back and started making dinner, and now relaxing and in the middle of dinner.

"Ha... every time Takeo cooks, you sigh too much of the deliciousness.

Alice shares her thoughts as she eats soup with carrots and potatoes in bread and shiitake stock pinched with roast beef.

"Ha, I'm glad you said that.

If you're traveling in a carriage or something, you want to buy vegetables and eggs as well.

"That might be good.

And, Takeo sees Mia. Alice also sees Mia.

Mia has been looking at the woods ever since she started eating dinner.

I'm still watching the woods over dinner.

I know what Takeo and Alice meant by that behavior, but I didn't really care, especially since Mia didn't say anything...

That's just what Takeo wants to hear.

"Mia, you're not hostile, are you?

"Lord, I probably don't. If there is, the air around you changes.

But I think you're looking at me because I'm not moving at all from earlier.

So I'm watching, too.

"Hmm..."

Takeo stands up when he drops a few pieces of his roast beef, washing sauce with soup and puts it on a plate.

"Lord?"

"It could be the Lord around here, right?

Greetings and dedication.

Mia, in this direction?

"There is. Lord, be careful, will you?

"Yes, sir.

Takeo should be able to deploy Shield x 15 on both hands at any time.

When Takeo arrives at the border between the forest and the square, he puts his plate down and squeezes his hands together.

"Lord of the Woods, I apologize for not doing anything and doing wild lodging.

I'm leaving tomorrow morning, so tonight, forgive me for staying.

And he stood there whispering, and went back to Alice and the others.

"Dear Takeo, were you okay?

"Lord, are you all right?

The two of them ask worried.

"We're both fine.

... Mia, I went so close, didn't I?

"Yes, I went to a position that would be visible.

Didn't you notice?

"I had no idea.

Have the signs changed?

"No, I don't think we're traveling very much either.

And when I look where Takeo and Alice put the plates... the plates are gone.

"When."

"You didn't notice.

Takeo and Alice are surprised.

And there's a gutter and a noise from the woods and something comes out of one.

"Hey..."

Alice is surprised when she sees herself, and Takeo doesn't speak up, but she is surprised.

It was a sloppy little dragon about 40 cm high that came over here with a plate.

"Oh, was this sign a dragon after all?

Mia sighed.

"Kew!

and the little dragon that came before the three of us lays down the plate and rings gently.

"Mia, give me an interpreter.

"Yes, Lord.

Mia rides Takeo's shoulder.

"Below. A Conversation Between Takeo and Alice and the Little Dragon (Translation: Mia):

"Good evening.

I came to thank you for the delicious meat.

"No, I'd appreciate it if you were happy.

Do you understand the human language?

"Yes, I know.

"Is this your home?

"It's tentative.

I don't have a lot of people coming here, so I'm living here for now.

Why are you here?

"We are on a journey to King's Capital.

It's Nojuku, isn't it?

"Wangdu? It's a place full of people in the west, isn't it?

"Yes."

"Why is the fairy acting with you guys?

You're not supposed to be around here?

"Translated, I'm protecting it here.

You're under me now.

The little dragon turns toward Mia and rings.

"Kyu ~... Kyu? Kiku?"

"... how do you know that?

Mia stops the interpreter and talks to the little dragon as she becomes a jitty eye.

"Kyu ~. Kyu. Kiku? Kiku.

"Are you making fun of our people?

"Kiku. Kiku? Kiku ~. Kiku. Kiku?"

"Huh..."

Mia sighs.

"Mia, what did they say?

Alice asks me worried.

"No, you said you used to meet my parents.

So, thank you for your hard work interpreting.

"... is that right?

"Okay, I'll translate the rest, please.

"Well, you interrupted the conversation a bit.

So, human. Where did you guys come from?

"From here I come from a city that went five towns and villages east.

"In the meantime, is it the city that Goblin stormed?

"Do you know?

"I was looking at you as my sister from above. You beat Goblin and Auga opponents perfectly.

Congratulations. "

"In humans, the weakest classification, that is the finest result.

That sounds odd to hear you say that from the strongest species of dragon.

"Hmm, you know who you are.

... just fine.

I want to go to your king's capital too, so I'll follow you.

"" Ha!?

Two people were surprised by what the little dragon said.
