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

Takeo and Alice are sleeping naked in their beds hugging each other.

Alice can tell, she's sleeping with Takeo in her arms, but she's still grouped with gutters and can't move.

Takeo is bowing as he strokes Alice's head, but...

"Miss Alice?

"Yes."

"Time to wake up?

"... I don't like it.

"... let's get up, shall we?

"Mmm... does Master Takeo want to leave me?

"It's better this way.

"So let's just stay like this a little longer, shall we?

"... wouldn't that work, would it?

"Mmm... you have no choice.

And, after Alice's restraint is lifted, Takeo leaves the bed and begins to change.

Then he made warm water in the bucket and gently wiped Alice's body before Alice even started dressing.

Takeo and Alice started tea as they surrounded the desk.

"Well. That's how I pushed Miss Alice down.

"Is that where it comes from?

"Yeah. Mrs Meyer told me that Mr Brooke and Mr Follett should be making a report.

"I heard that, but... what about the actual place?

"Right... first of all, Victor and Gina are shaped beasts who transform from humans to wolves.

He said he was the lord next to Count Elvis' territory.

It was sold in the eastern town of the Katlanda Empire.

"Were they sold as reported...

I guess it's not other personnel.

"Yeah. Hi. You two told me that Victor's nephew was likely involved.

"Is it from a relative... whatever..."

Alice makes a difficult face.

"You have to protect Smith boy.

"Right.

His Majesty said it was a difficult decision about Master Takeo's slavery contract.

Slavery has not been taken in the Kingdom of Azpar. Therefore, the person who has signed a contract in another country is asked to cancel it... because Takeo's contract is more like an employment contract than a slave contract, it felt like a breeze to admit that once we heard the circumstances from those two people and Takeo had a promise to ensure that he fulfilled his 25-year contract.

"Okay.

Shall I put it in a sentence exactly around there?

Those two are in the process of fulfilling their slave covenants... but they probably wouldn't mind taking a collar if they could get a firm contract of employment.

"Do you trust that much?

"I know you can have credibility... but those two have a good sense of the governor's side in the first place.

What happens if you return to your territory yourself... at least Victor knows.

So it won't be that easy to cross the border.

"... what do you think will happen when you go back?

"Miss Alice, it's cheating to ask even though I know...

Well, briefly, it's a civil war between a party of nephews and a Victorian.

A word that made me the deciding factor in buying it out.

'You can't have the people in your hands,' you'll have to believe this.

If you know who will be hurt the most in a civil war, you will not suddenly return to your own territory.

"If that's what Master Takeo says, I'm no different.

We will treat it as our new family, apart from whether slaves are recognized in the Wang capital.

"Thank you, Miss Alice.

"Is it the same as Frederick?

"It won't reach Mr. Frederick yet... but I think it's coming.

Besides, you think the experience of a former lord and noble daughter is different from that of others.

"That's true when they say that.

It is certainly good for us to see things from the beginning on the governing side.

"Yes.

And, is the workshop next...

If I noticed, I'd be able to travel round the workshop making small guns and pocket watches.

"I know a small gun, but what is a pocket watch?

"You mean pocket watch.

This is short and long. "

Takeo took his pocket watch out of his pocket and explained it to Alice.

"I see.

This is good stuff.

Alice snorts.

"Then I will give that to Miss Alice as a souvenir.

"Huh? Is that good?

"Yes. It's convenient, and from now on you'll be able to do a lot more thinking about it.

"Eh heh."

Alice stares happily at the pocket watch.

"By the way, Master Takeo, to whom do you plan to give your pocket watch souvenirs?

"Right...

I gave it to His Royal Highness Cliff, and then three of His Royal Highness Neil and Mr. William, and then His Majesty?

Plus Mr. Elvis and Smith Boy, Mr. Frederick with the chef, the maid chief, and the butler's second seat.

Were there 11 Elvis directors?

And eight or ten platoons at the lab and three researchers... so far you've decided on 37 or 8.

"Leila, are you three for your sisters?

"Right.

Leila was the one who wanted the watch the most when she saw all kinds of items originally from me.

"... Was it?

says Alice as she leans her neck.

"Yes. He casually said he wanted it.

I hope you like it.

"Leila, I think your sister will be delighted.

Alice says happily.

"Oh, and that's the last bell tone I said hello to among the people in the workshop.

"Yes."

"Me and my hometown... you're from different worlds.

"Huh!? Does that mean she's...

Alice is surprised.

Takeo said, "Miss Alice, the ringtone is older than Miss Alice, right? I thought."
