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

Dinner was over and the dishes were also cleaned up by four young people taking the initiative.

Takeo, Mia and Tama are in the bath.

The four young men are shuddering as they sit beside their desks.

Meyer is drinking tea without saying anything.

"It was a good bath.

Takeo returns to the living room with two little ones on his shoulders.

Both Mia and Takeo seem to have dried their hair and are sarcastic.

"Welcome back, Lord Kitamizato, Lord Mia, Lord Tama.

Meyer smiles.

"Yes... so? Four young people are bawling... are you okay?

Takeo says worried.

"No! Today's food... was great!

Follett stands up and responds.

"Yes! I see what the royals mean to admire!

Brooke also stands up and responds.

Both Arkin and Bart stand up.

"... just sit down.

Lord Kitamizato, this is what happened just now.

Meyer laughs bitterly.

"Well... when I was looking at the dining landscape, I knew it was thin...

You seem happy for me.

"" "" Yes.

Four young men replied.

"Well, do you want to have a meeting?

To Mr. Arkin and Mr. Brooke, you still had to introduce yourself.

It's Mia the Fairy and Cat balls in my men.

"Dear two, thank you.

"Nha."

The little ones say hello.

"" Cute.

Brooke and Follett squeak.

"I'm Phil Arkin with the Second Intelligence Squad. And"

"I'm Heather Brooke.

Two greet each other.

"Yes, shall we begin?

First of all... you all know about Mia, don't you?

Takeo says, the youngsters nod.

"The balls were deposited in relations between the Kingdom of Azpur and the Katlanda Empire.

"What is it that you have deposited?

Bart asks.

"No, the lord around there told me I would love to have kids... and I couldn't say no.

Takeo returns a bitter laugh.

"... Lord between borders... are you a radicoccica!?

Arkin asks in surprise.

"What is it? Radicotica."

"Yes... it's an old demon around there... don't you know Lord Kitamizato?

Though I think it was a four-legged beastman with a white, black vertical stripe.

"Yeah, that's it. It was a big cat.

"... I mean a big cat... enough that I can't even get rid of it if I don't handle it with a few soldiers.

"I didn't have any hostility... and I don't think it would be a problem if I didn't do evil from here.

"Sure, the radicotica between the borders is about to come out into the village a bit in a year when the mountains are fruitless and vandalize the grain, so...

No human damage if food is prepared in advance. It is a rare demon.

"Really? Then you don't seem to have a problem.

"No, no, Lord Tama is that radical chica. The future is going to be that big, isn't it?

"I guess.

But I'll ask you something right, and... I'll keep it at home, so it's no problem.

Hey, balls?

"Nha."

My balls nod at Takeo's inquiry.

"Huh?... well... if Lord Kitamizato is going to be in control, I guess there's no problem..."

I think of Arkin as he arms "wonder if it's good".

"Well... I was watching, too... but if I refused, you might have been fighting, right?

"Yeah, because you went through it when you were ku.

I've picked it up a lot.

"Hmm? When Lord Ku?

Meyer asks.

"Yes. If you say no, your sister Dragon has attacked you with her tail.

Takeo says with pleasure.

"The Lord sells fights in strange places.

Mia sighs.

"... well done and safe.

Brooke squeaks.

"No, because my sister Dragon didn't mean it, so I tapped her lightly.

I managed to do it.

Takeo says with a laugh.

"Ha... Lord Kitamizato's defense is Class 1, so you can do it.

As you all know, don't sell fights to dragons, okay?

"" "." "It's obvious!

A young man responds immediately to Meyer's advice.

"And well, from me, traveling is all about balls.

Can I get you anything?

Takeo cuts off the story, turns his face to Arkin and asks questions.

"Yes.

Lord Kitamizato, the purpose of this one is to go to a workshop called 'Steno' in this town, right?

"Yes, it is.

Takeo and Meyer nod.

"Actually, me and Brooke have been looking down within today's...

Steno Workshop seems to be out of business.

"Out of business?"

"Yes. The store was gallant and there was no one inside.

Plus there's a sticker on the entrance and it says, 'Thank you for all your patronage. We will be out of business for one convenience' apology was sticking out.

It looks like it was posted about a month ago.

Arkin explains.

"Mr. Meyer.

"Yes, it seemed too late.

Takeo and Meyer nod.

"I see, let me go see it tomorrow, too.

Not that I don't trust Mr. Arkin and the others... but you should look at them with this eye for once.

Was there anything else?

"Yes.

And I was watching a little bit of the street from the cafe near Steno Workshop...

Thanks. When it's almost noon, the workshop on the street closes.

I don't know why you're doing that... "

Brooke explains.

"Hmm... did anyone around you say anything in the cafe?

"... with that said... I feel like my uncles said 'Steno Workshop got his eyes on me even though it's tough too'.

Brooke says as he thinks.

"Lord Kitamizato, this is..."

"Perhaps you're the second person I came up with more with with your majesty than I am.

You might have been right not to bring a small gun.

"Yes.

The Union of Mages in this country makes small arms quite dangerous, doesn't it?

I didn't know you were going to push me out of business. I was a little insulted.

This country is undergoing industry, so I thought it might be a little more loose against the workshop... "

"Neither do I.

But... that's definite.

"What is it?

"Paradoxically, the upper echelons of this country's magicians admitted to the possibility of small arms.

Otherwise you won't embark on elimination.

This means that the effectiveness of this weapon has been confirmed in the upper echelons of the Union of Mages... "

"Could there be a weapon similar to this soon? and."

Arkin asks.

"Hmm... that's subtle there.

I do research surrounding small arms like I do, and slowly I eliminate them because I don't want to aspire to uphold the status of a magician and improve the quality of soldiers. Even though I know how effective a small gun is...

Hmm? Or... maybe because with affordable weapons like small guns, the Union of Mages will deny the weapons we're developing right now...

"What kind of thing is that?

Follett asks.

"Well... all I'm saying, too, is give me the edge of the ordinary... and when you recognize that a small gun is good, you can't think of any other affordable weapon.

Takeo says with concern. "The concept of tanks and armoured vehicles is also a derivation of small arms, right? Helicopters and planes will also be the main transports... and what do they have? I thought."

"Well... Lord Kitamizato, you're not in the realm of speculation around there.

Meyer says with a sigh.

"Right. Besides, you wouldn't even think about it here.

Shall we think about it when we get back to Elvis territory?

In the meantime, let's take a look around where the Steno workshop is tomorrow.

Well... do you want to go to bed?

"Yes."

Everyone started getting ready to go to bed.
