A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World
Episode 456: Day 40 Sisters Conversation Before Alice Leaves. Brooke's Rakuten Thoughts.
Alice and Ku had tea after breakfast to finish getting ready to leave early.
♪
"Kiku.
Ku is also cheeky and enjoying treats he won't be able to eat for a few days.
And, Layla is coming.
"Is that it? Are you ready?
"Dear Sister Leila, I was coarsely finished packing yesterday, and I'm done putting in the" and other small items.
"Yes.
Okay, this.
Layla gives Alice the paperwork and the letter.
"Yes. Hmm? From Grandpa?
"Get it when you're taking tea time after breakfast to the third prince and his stepfather.
We and your father-in-law are watching inside.
"Hmm?... What is the presentation and results of the site?
I see the city south proposal has become a factory.
Huh? Smith asks Master Takeo to come up with a remedy for the North of the City proposal?
Heh. "
Alice turns a blind eye to the text there and laughs furiously.
"Right? There, you'll notice.
William and your father-in-law enjoyed it.
"Smith is excellent," he said... because pats his age are for comparison.
Does our Smith look like a delicacy?
Alice, Smith seems to be growing well.
"Right.
Until now, I've only been asking, and I've deliberately suggested that you make a request to Master Takeo, so it seems that Smith is also thinking about governance...
If you ask someone else, you should also give your opinion.
So you haven't.
"Alice is tough.
Wouldn't you be pretty nervous that year just to give an opinion to an adult?
"It must be tough on my brother, right?
"I guess I threw out Smith's education along the way.
You can't say anything about Smith's education policy.
"I'm basically abandoned, too, and I can't say much, but I don't know how to direct Smith...
Shall I ask Master Takeo for the rest?
"Oh? Is Alice good and Smith no good?
Layla laughs bitterly.
"Yes.
He's my fiancée, isn't he? I'm special!
I'd like to decide while we discuss that.
"Right.
Mr. Takeo would figure out a good way to do it.
Alice nods at Leila's words as well.
And, the door is knocked, and when Alice gives permission, Andersen comes in.
"Excuse me.
Good morning, Lord Alice, Your Highness Leila.
"" Good morning.
"Lord Alice, would you please deliver the documents to Lord Kitamizato?
Andersen puts out a small envelope.
"Okay. Mind if I ask what's inside?
"Yes, no problem.
This is an overview of four pre-insiders from the Wang Metropolitan Defense Corps of the Exam Platoon and two recruiters from the College of Mages.
"Two from the College?
"Yes, the Dean of the College has officially notified me in writing that two people have been recruited.
"Really? You're coming, aren't you?
Alice whines in horror.
"I know you'll confirm the details when you get back here, but in the meantime, I'm trying to give you an overview.
"Yes, I understand.
And when the butler came and told him, "Looks like he's ready to leave," Alice took a seat.
------------------------
"We've got Lord Alice's horse, and we're all packed and...
All right, you're ready!
Brooke and Follett were preparing to leave.
♪
"Mr. Brooke, I look forward to it... because I look forward to seeing Mr. Arkin?
Follett asks.
"Huh?... is Arkin about 20%?
"Less!?
"Is that what Johanna wants to see Bart?
"Uh... that's... that's right.
Follett turns mojimoji as he blushes.
"... a maiden... well, fine.
I'm traveling with Lord Alice for two days, so I have to ask you a lot. "
"Huh? What are you asking?
"Knowledge of Lord Kitamizato.
"... is it cooking?
Follett says as he thinks.
"Johanna... Lord Kitamizato is going down both ways, right?
Wouldn't you like to know about the night life of someone like that?
"Huh!? That way, sir?
I'm surprised Follett...
"Huh? Isn't that obvious?
No matter how many martial arts you do, you can't just get engaged to the Count's maid.
Plus that jealousy addition to Lord Alice... I'm pretty sure there was something to captivate Lord Alice.
"That's right..."
Follett bothers me.
"And I pinched it in my little ear, and they're going to have a new side chamber in His Royal Highness Cliff and His Highness Neil, right?
"Uh... that's important.
"It's been a few days since Lord Kitamizato came to the king's capital, right?
"... isn't it caused by His Highness Pat?
"Ah... well, could it be that way...
Well, either way, I have to ask.
"Oh, I knew you'd ask..."
"We need to see the breadth of Lord Kitamizato's knowledge.
Isn't Johanna interested?
Maybe there's a world we don't know about?
"Well... I'd like to know that..."
"Thank you for waiting.
Alice and Andersen are coming.
"Ha! Lord Alice, we're ready.
"Excuse me, but please accompany me.
Alice thanks the two of them.
"" Yes.
"And Lord Alice, you're heavily equipped.
Andersen says with a bitter smile.
"Right.
My luggage, my bastard sword, my little Takeo-sama gun... "
Alice sighs.
Alice hung a string of small gun modification 1 from her left shoulder to her right hip, as Takeo had done in the second half of his assault on Goblin and Auga, using a feed cane to close the string, carrying the muzzle down.
"Will there be no problem riding?
"Only maybe...
If you can't, I'll figure out a different way to hold it.
Alice says sighingly.
"So, Lord Alice.
Welcome.
"Yes, Lord Andersen.
Do you have any other messages for Master Takeo?
"... right.
I haven't decided on four more members of the test platoon, so I'll ask you to check the materials when I get back.
Tell them we'll narrow it down for numbers.
"Yes, I understand.
Alice nods.
"Now, Lord Alice, let's leave.
and Brooke urges the three of them to ride.
"Okay, platoon commander, I'm coming.
"Ha! Madam Director, be careful.
Alice and Andersen joked and Alice and the others left.
