A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World
Episode 367: Day 25 The story of the 1st Crown Prince family. Tea party and drinks. Let's get some sleep.
in the room of the 1st Prince family before dinner.
"I see, you're gonna let me in the side room..."
Cliff replies to his wives troubled.
"Yeah, I decided the other day.
Lorna proclaims grandiose.
"You really don't want to go into a side room..."
Selina squeaks boso.
"Well, if the reason is as explained earlier, you can't help it.
Pat, don't let things go any further in your line of work.
"Father, Mother, I'm sorry.
Pat bows his head deeply.
"Totally...
Thank you, Mr. Takeo!
If Mr. Takeo was serious, you really didn't have a life!?
Lorna gets really angry.
"... yes"
Pat shall be shunned.
"... so it's about you guys... you've almost decided already, haven't you?
"Yeah, I would recommend this kid.
Celina gives you one piece of paper.
"... the granddaughter of the Viscount Ashton family?
"You can't take it from a soldier after Neil on a boulder.
Besides, it's been a long time since I had to think about it, and... it feels like I've made up my mind about Pat.
"Right... um... 19? Aren't you too young?
Cliff is heartily surprised.
"You're young.
But this house is still safe. Takemen's family.
Well... it looks like William's investigation is giving him a bribe.
Besides, even if you had a boy, you wouldn't scorn Pat or Ann.
If Pat succeeds to the throne, we'll be behind ourselves... if it's possible that we can rule our current public administration, we won't feel bad, will we?
"That's going to cause problems.
"Yeah, well, at least there shouldn't be anything within our parents' generation.
Rather, Pat's time is a problem.
If we don't show some extra competence... it could lead to civil unrest.
"Hmm... Smith in Elvis territory in the aristocracy facing the demonic kingdom?
You liked William and your father.
There will be no shaking on that side.
Neil's... is Pat's time the next principals or their children?
Do we have to leave that to Neil and the others?
... right, let's go see this girl once.
"Oh? Are you going?
"I know that forced marriages, no matter how much I am, are a source of contention.
If you don't want me to check with you, I'll make you another candidate.
"That's fine.
Lorna nods.
"Besides, Takeo will go through Ashton territory to come and go to the Katlanda Empire. I'm going to come home with you to some extent with the date and time.
And I want to see the border.
Don't even ask the Ashtons to guard their absence because we have to go to King's Capital many times at Takeo's title ceremony and Neil's marriage from now on.
"Okay. For now, we'll be waiting at the mansion.
"Right, please.
"" Yes.
Lorna and Selina snorted.
And the door of the room was knocked, and Cliff replied, "I don't mind," and the butler came in and said, "Dinner is ready."
------------------------
The place William brought me after dinner is a simple bar inside the royal castle... but Takeo was confused.
"What? Takeo, with no expression.
King Azpar sat there in the deepest seat.
"Not at all.
"Ha... I guess William hasn't explained anything?
The two men next door also sighed as they looked at this one.
"Mr. William? What's this?"
Takeo asks William for help... but.
"Er... this is Brother Neil. This is Brother Cliff.
William gives a broken description.
"What should I do in this case?
One knee?
Takeo asks as he drips.
"Ah, Takeo, you don't need it now. That's just an official place.
It's a private space now.
King Azpar says with a bitter smile.
"Sire, why are you here?
Takeo says as he narrows his eyes.
"Takeo, good for Alan.
The tone is also better at Count Elvis's residence.
"... I don't like it if my neck flies the moment I call my name..."
"You're not that narrow a king.
I said I'm good, I'm good.
Takeo sees William without saying anything.
"Shouldn't you say your father is good?
William says with a bitter smile.
"Ha... Mr. Alan, why are you here?
"Um, William told me you'd be drinking with Takeo.
I had invited my sons to stay in line first.
King Azpar answers with a full grin.
"Huh...
My names are His Royal Highness Cliff, His Highness Neil and Takeo Kitamizato.
Call me Takeo.
"Takeo, I'm sorry about our pat this time and the Gotagota in general in the Wang capital.
Cliff bows his head.
"Thank you, Your Highness Cliff.
Takeo also gives thanks.
"Takeo, I'm sorry to be a part of the royal family, too.
Amy, I want you both to say hello!
"Yes, Your Highness.
Best wishes.
"Sa, Takeo, let's sit down and have a drink.
William and Takeo also took their seats and the men's feast began.
------------------------
The Lady's Tea Party venue.
"Mr. Takeo must be in trouble by now.
Alma is drinking tea with a bitter smile.
"Er, Sister Alma. What's the big deal about Master Takeo?
He said he was going to have a drink with His Highness William.
Alice said, "Ha?" and lean his neck.
"Actually, your father-in-law sniffed that William and Mr. Takeo would drink.
Report as Layla sighs.
"Both my Cliff and Neil have been taken.
Lorna laughs bitterly.
"So now Mr. Takeo is surrounded by royal men.
"... that's a luxury. You can't drink with that member if you're a regular nobleman, can you?
Amy says as she thinks.
"My lord Amy, you can only take a moment to drink before you can't.
Lynette answers Amy.
"Mother, it's not His Highness, is it?
"I can't! His Highness Amy is His Highness Amy.
The new princess was tempered.
"Well... because you're Mr. Takeo.
You'll be doing something about it though.
Leila said with a bitter smile.
"Dear Takeo... I wonder if you will return safely..."
Alice was worried about Takeo.
------------------------
"Huh? Did you try it all?
Takeo is surprised by William's night report.
"Yes... 'Test all of Mr. Takeo's knowledge -' Leila said. That seems like fun already.
"You don't have to try it all..."
Takeo laughs bitterly.
"William, was your knowledge of Takeo that great?
Neil asks.
"As far as I can tell... I don't have this knowledge of Wang Du.
William answers with a nod.
"William, do you have that paper?
Cliff asks.
"Yes, here.
William comes out of his nostalgia.
Takeo said, "Why are you carrying it?" I wonder.
Three people look at the contents with a serious face.
"... wait a minute, please.
Does Mr. Alan need to see it?
You wouldn't be able to read without glasses in the first place, would you?
Takeo is surprised.
"What? I want to know too!
Even if you can't read it, you'll see what the painting can do!
"Are you willing to make a fourth prince?
"Hmm?... that sounds interesting too.
King Azpar laughs niggardly.
"You can't drown even if you can, can you?
The next king is confirming it with His Highness Cliff, isn't he?
Takeo answers in dismay.
"At that time... shall we educate Takeo?
"You don't like it. Please educate the royal family in the royal family.
I'm busy educating Smith Boy.
Besides, if Smith Boy's wife comes to me, I don't know what to do... I'm not thinking about measures at all.
"Takeo, how's our Amy? She's solid, and... she's a good woman, no matter what my parents say, okay?
Neil is moving on.
"Her Royal Highness Amy is adorable and I and Lady Alice prefer it... because this is all a matter of motivation on their part.
I can't force you to do this right now.
By the way, I'm not even willing to give Smith a preliminary knowledge, so I'll have to leave it to the accomplishments.
"Well... that's our problem!
"Hmm... Alice and Takeo are on your side.
Amy's leading the way. Takeo, there's actually one more candidate, isn't there?
"Yes."
"She's my brother's granddaughter, but she's the same age as Smith.
We should meet in the dormitory next year.
"Smith, as a boy, your Highness Amy and the girl meet at the same time.
I think it's fair to say, isn't it?
"Hmm... right.
Do you want to plot this?
"You don't have to plot it because it's troublesome when you're taunted with royal prestige or something weird.
What do adults do when they say something about their children's relationship in the first place?
If it suits you after the right age, you can make a pageant or something.
You're still a kid, aren't you?
"Um... but in Amy and Grace's time, there aren't many men's nobles..."
"Is the girl called His Highness Grace?
Takeo drank his little one liquor thinking "heh".
------------------------
"Huh? Will there be a royal family of women your age as Smith?
Ah... surely the dean said that too... you were a woman.
Alice comes up with the idea and says:
"It is. So, Neil and your stepfather said it would be interesting if you made love to Smith from the Elvis family.
Lorna says pleasantly.
"Ugh... I haven't even met him yet, and he said that to me..."
Amy was confused.
"Well... I don't know how Smith feels about all this.
It's the only way to be.
I'm laughing bitterly as Leila looks at Amy like that.
"Right.
I won't say anything to Smith about Amy, so... I hope you guys do your best.
"Right... Alice, why don't you ask Mr. Takeo to do the same in that direction?
I have trouble with weird preliminary knowledge... and I'm not allowed to marry you, so let it be done.
"I understand, Your Highness Selina.
Alice snorted.
------------------------
When Takeo knocks on the door of the room, he replies, "Please" from inside, so he enters the room.
"Miss Alice, I'm back.
You're back early.
"Yes, welcome home. I just finished earlier too.
How was the drink?
"... we were talking about no other love.
Well, I was taught that Smith Boy has an approach from the royal family: His Highness Amy and His Highness Grace.
"Oh... is Takeo-sama's place there too?
"Hmm? That means Miss Alice, too?
"Yes. But we should have decided in person.
"Yes. I also said that I should leave it to my own good fortune... but the last one was when His Royal Highness Neil said something like, 'I need to have a meeting with Amy!' You meant it.
Well, the boarding house from spring sounds fun.
"Absolutely.
Both Alice and Takeo had to laugh bitterly at each other.
"Well... Master Takeo is leaving tomorrow, isn't he?
"Yep. Well, worst of all, you'll have no problem with even taking a knife and underwear.
"You can't lose our crossing permit, can you?
"Yes, I have it in my inner pocket in my coat.
Takeo says as he checks his coat.
"Really... well, let's take a bath and get some sleep.
"Right. Let's take our time to nourish our English, shall we?
Takeo answers with a nod.
The night between Mattari and Takeo deepened.
