A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World
Episode 484: Takeo's Proposal.
"... Takeo, what about that?
Neil smiles bitterly.
"Father, if you want to move Mr. Takeo and the others, isn't that the only way?
Amy says to Neil.
"How about clerically?
Cliff asks a civilian.
"... I can certainly do that.
Civilian answers troubled.
Faces on the spot bothered me with arms.
Takeo's idea was an easy one to ask for through the Adventurers' Union.
It was also something that could be done in rank B or C, which is "to pick up the meat of oaks, etc. (...) per the lack of food in the town".
Takeo said Alice wanted to go because it doesn't matter because it's a big nickname, so it was a proposal I put out.
"By the way, what are Mr. Meyer and his ranks?
"We are all B-ranks.
When you become a Wangdu Defense Corps, you will receive Nature and B-rank cards.
"Me and Miss Alice are A-ranked, so if we all go, will we be B-ranked?
"" Huh?
The royal faces surprise me.
"What is it?
Takeo sees everyone.
"Master Alice understands, is Mr. Takeo also A-ranked?
"Apparently.
See, it seems to be an achievement in an example raid.
Actually, I don't care about rank.
"Not at all.
Takeo and Alice sigh.
"No, no! Mr. Takeo! A Rank says the top 15%... maybe the top within 10%!?
Why didn't you tell me first?
"... I don't know if it's a big deal."
Takeo said in Amy's words, "What are you surprised about?" and turn a strange face.
"... I'll tell you someday.
Amy is dismayed.
"So, Takeo, what are you going to do as you take that request?
Neil asks Takeo.
"I thought if things didn't work out, the basics would just go see it tomorrow morning and observe it.
All I can say is that if things move before reinforcements from Wang Du, we'll deal with them.
Civilian lord, that's all we can do, but... what do you say?
"It's enough.
A civilian bows his head.
"What if it moves during the night?
"Excuse me, but we're not moving.
We'll have a defensive battle in this town.
We will have to ask you to buy time in the defense of each village and wait for reinforcements from the King's Capital.
"Hmm... that's hard.
But I'm glad Takeo and the others are on surveillance tomorrow morning.
"But I will only deal with things when they move.
Lord Civilian... are there any penalties for failure to accomplish the request?
"You can't even get in, so we'll take care of it without any problems.
Plus, it's a reward... I think horses, etc. are the way to get around, so I will put in as much money as I can pay with my authority in the form of various expenses.
"You can pay for the turnover.
Sometimes you don't fight, so it doesn't matter if you don't get paid.
"Oh... are you sure?
"Yes, I don't mind.
If you get proper oak meat, etc., I'll get paid for it.
"Okay.
Now... I'll be making a request to the Adventurers Union right away, so stop by on your way back to the inn.
"Okay.
When Takeo said so, the civilian and soldiers stepped out of their seats.
"... are you okay?
Neil asks Takeo.
"I thought the magician was the only problem in case.
I'll leave that area to Mr. Meyer and the others.
"Yes, any magician will suppress us against them.
"Miss Alice and I will sweep the oak.
"Yes.
Does Master Takeo play melee?
"Hmm... I wish I could blow the Lizard Dragon with a small gun modification 1 at the beginning.
"Lord Kitamizato, my skin is hard on dragon-like..."
Meyer is stunned.
"That's just the outer skin, isn't it?
I think your mouth and guts are biological at the time you're eating stuff, so...
At least if you stick a small gun in your mouth and shoot it, you'll be doomed.
Everyone pushes silence on Takeo's words.
"Is that it? Is something wrong?
"No... I've never had that idea, so...
Can you get that close?
"There you go.
"I'll make my way.
Alice says motivated.
"You can make a pretty safe road.
Well, we'll do the miscellaneous fish, so Mr. Meyer leans all the way to the magician's restraint.
"Okay.
"Lord, what shall I do with Gina?
"We'll both clean up the clutterfish with us.
My lord Cliff, my lord Neil, I'm sorry.
"Craftsmen, no problem.
Let's get him properly protected with our guards.
Cliff tells Takeo.
"Thank you.
Takeo says thank you.
"Then Takeo, I'm sorry, but you have to deal with this.
"Yes, I'm in awe.
When Takeo greets him, below Meyer, Takeo and the others walk out of their seats.
Amy dropped off Takeo and the others and said, "Are we going to turn the same forces against the 2nd Knights? I thought."
