A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World
Episode 533 Lunch and a Brief Meeting at the Inn.
When I came back to the inn, Viktor and the others were dissatisfied and were bickering in the lobby at Taratara, so we were supposed to have lunch together.
By the way, the Victors' escorts were staffed by three men, Follett and two female soldiers.
So I cut the croquette in half and spread out the lunch everyone had bought to try to eat it properly, but...
"Dear Kitamizato! Thanks!!
Everyone thanked Takeo.
"Croquet's delicious. ♪ It's crisp outside and hokey inside ♪
I'd love to have an apprenticeship at the store I went to eat today!
The faces that Sarita had accompanied her when she said such thoughts nodded.
"Well, if you eat dishes like this every day... the taste of Wangdu's shop is mostly tomato-based and flavorful...
Plus, I feel good about my stomach.
The other escorts nod at Follett's words as he tells his thoughts while eating croquettes.
"Mr. Takeo... this is normal croquette, right?
The ringtone whines as he watches after he eats.
"Yeah, privately normal, isn't it?
I think it's common this time because it's just potatoes and meat... and then there's corn or something?
Ringtone, what's wrong?
"No... he wants a cream croquette.
"" "What's cream croquette!?
Everyone on the spot eats up.
"I see, indeed, the cream croquette is delicious.
Hmm... "
"Master Takeo? Mr. Suzune? You two don't get it. Explain it!
What is cream croquette?
Is it different from this croquette??
Alice speaks for everyone.
"Ah... erm... Takeo, what can I say?
"Simply put, that's a croquette with stews in it.
"" "Stew??????
Everyone twists their heads.
"Lord Kitamizato, what about that??
Makes the face of the workshop look strange.
"Hmm? I just briefly explained... but in the end, it's the stuff that fried the stew with as little moisture as possible.
You do want some, don't you?
"Do you think you can?
The ringtone is heard.
"Um... is it a solidification of the stew...
Normally, do you add potatoes and apply trout or use single chestnut flour?
But I wonder if single chestnut flour is different... because it's going to be delonderone.
That means adding potatoes and putting trolls on them... but they won't solidify them yet.
Um... solidify... solidify... cool?
Takeo flashes something.
"Sure... if you turn it into ice... no, if the temperature drops somewhat even if it's not ice..."
"Ah, Master Takeo went into the long run.
"Can you feel this?
"When it comes to food, Master Kitamizato. You think long, don't you?
Alice and the others talk hissohisso as they look at Takeo.
"Well, will you think about it when you get back to the Elvis Mansion?
"" "Yeah, yeah!?
Disgruntled voices are raised by those who were guarding them.
"Hmm? What?
"'Cause this is who we are!?
Can't you eat it!?
Follett complains.
"'Cause you don't like fried food going on day and night, do you?
I'd like to make it light for dinner today.
"Kuh... how can we..."
"Wouldn't it be nice if the Royal Castle cook made it for you?
"It's not that easy to make!
"So... why don't you come on a business trip to Elvis Mansion?
I only come to Wangdu twice a year, and for once, I'm researching weapons in the Wangdu Defense Corps's peer organizations... so why don't you just send the Wangdu Defense Corps the results of the assessment of the weapons you asked them to verify, instead of bringing them?
Well, I won't be involved in that area... but you see, as far as I'm concerned, it's an important evaluation result, so tell me that handing it over is mandatory.
"" That's it! Hang on to the Director General!
"Please make a good reason.
I'll be able to serve you what you want if you come.
"Ho! Is that true!?
"Yeah. No expensive stuff, but it comes from the corner king's capital. I'll make you as much food as I can.
Oh, you can have all the ingredients if you tell me in advance how many people are coming and what you want to eat.
"We'll be around the chief!
Follett is motivated.
Other faces say, "Do you move for food?," he smiles bitterly.
"Well, for now... you don't have croquettes anymore.
"Make it extra!
"Hehe. The secret to deliciousness is that it feels like another of these things.
So that's it.
Well... we're going to have a meeting, right?
Victor, Gina, Anita, Mirko, Ringtone, 5 of you, let's go to the Royal Castle with us.
Oh, I'll take Mia and the others.
"What meeting is it?
Victor asks.
"The Royal Institute... well, the men of the Institute, of which I am the director, meet together.
The test platoon and the lab director will be here.
Face-to-face. "
"Huh!?
The ringtone surprises me. By the way, Anita and Mirko were just "heh" impressed.
"Hehe, you don't have to be too nervous.
Probably... no, because it generally ends with a Q&A to me.
Ah... with that said, we need to look at the establishment requirements for the institute... "
Takeo begins to take the material out of the backpack and look at it.
"So you're relaxing until you leave, huh?
Clean up dishes and stuff.
Sarita and Gina take their seats and start washing everyone's dishes.
"Bradley, where are we going now?
"Right... do you want to go check out the trinkets and groceries?
"Huh? Are your grandparents going to the grocery store?
"Oh, I see, is that groceries?
"Huh? Dad, do you have something?
"Weapons and protective equipment are not the only means of demonstrating technical capability.
One way or another, small things... even if you look at household goods, you know the technical skills of the country and the local area.
The face of the scene nodded "heh" in Baines' description.
------------------------
Tracy was bawling as she leaned against the gates of the College of Mages.
"" Excuse me, College Director.
And Kay and Pamela come running over.
"Hmm? It's still early in the day, so I'm fine.
You've both had your meals, haven't you?
"" Yes!
"Shall we go, then?
Kay and Pamela had been told by the Dean of the Academy to "assemble in front of the gate before noon because we have a test platoon face-to-face at the Royal Castle after noon".
They said, "We're new to Royal Castle, so will the Dean of the Academy come?" or so I think.
