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

"Is that what tactics look like?

"Lord Kitamizato.

Is there any way to write down tactics in a test platoon like training to create tactics as you explore them?

Andersen asks.

"That would be... chess or chess... but how do I explain it... chess and chess. Please come back another time.

Do you have those toys in the kingdom of Azpur, by the way?

"There are a lot of games, but I was wondering if there were any toys that could be a tactical reference... especially.

"You don't.

... bell tone, do you think there's anything else you might be able to use?

"Is that me?... I don't know about chess or chess.

Oh, how about reversing or something? Wouldn't that work, too?

"I see, it could be good indeed.

Plus reversing seems easy to make.

"What is Reversi?

"Is it a white and black formation game on an 8x8 squares board?

I will be back in Kingsville in the middle of January for the title ceremony, so I will make it and bring it by then.

"Can you make it right away?

"Probably if we can get the ingredients together at the grocery store, we can do it in a couple of days.

"Is it difficult to do it the way it is?

"It's very easy.

What should I explain? It's the quickest you can look at it, but you alternate between white and black, and if you pinch it with white, black, white, for example, you whiten the black in the middle.

Ultimately, we compete over which color is more.

"?... what happens if you pinch it in black and white?

King Azpar asks as he tilts his neck.

"You'll be white and white.

"I see... Takeo, how much is that going to make?

"Mm-hmm... I'll try to find a place where you can make it on Elvis territory, but I'll make it for now, so... is it limited to a couple?

"Hmm... it's going to be a long time before I have it.

"If you're going to make a ton of them, they're going to move fast with the cracking... but I'll also check around.

"Excuse me, please.

"No, I got a little allowance, so I'll use you to prototype it.

"Um, well.

"Your Majesty, it's time.

Orcott tells King Azpar.

"Is it that time already? I'll see you all later.

When King Azpar takes his seat, everyone rises and gives the most salute and drops him off.

King Azpar, Olcott, Babington and Alderson are leaving.

"Fix it."

When Meyer says, everyone fixes their posture and takes their seats.

"I'm sorry, everyone. I couldn't say no.

Takeo says with a bitter smile.

"No, don't you have to say no there?

Because the Royal Institute is the same research institute under His Majesty's command as the Wang Du Guard.

If Your Majesty wants to visit, he won't be able to say no.

"I don't think I have to join you from the beginning.

Even though everyone's nervous, including me... no, you're here because you know that?

"Your Majesty could be... well, 80% of the time. 'If you go abruptly, it looks like fun'.

Meyer makes me look exhausted.

"I didn't know the Kingsguard Squad Leader would say that. That's a tremendous trust.

"Yes, Your Majesty is a good monarch.

I will take my affairs seriously, and I will not leave my people's opinions unanswered.

Because we just occasionally do our diagonal ideas and actions.

"Well, you're coming to visit even Elvis territory, which faces the demonic kingdom with a sense of patience.

The face of the King's Capital Guard on the spot laughs bitterly at Takeo's grunt.

"No, Lord Kitamizato, I chilled my liver when I heard a report of that raid.

The second magic detachment was near the border with the demonic kingdom just in case, because it didn't bode well for anything.

"Really... then it must have been collected in a rather special way...

But you won't be able to ask for the same result in the same situation again.

Because it is the result of that situation with that personnel.

Takeo blurs without saying anything about metastatic magic.

"You must be...

Well, at least in the future, we're gonna be on the side of creating that situation, right?

"Yes... I hope that the tactics devised in this laboratory will not be used.

But research that looks ahead in all times is a necessity.

That's us. To get a better future.

Besides, we're testing weapons, but... Mr. Andersen, did you get a way to test the shield?

"... yeah, for now..."

Andersen shows Takeo about 3 notes of paper.

"Hmm..."

Takeo performs flushing readings as he winds apart, but wrinkles between his eyebrows.

"Did you think of this by yourself, Mr. Andersen?

"Yes."

"Then add four veterans and think again.

"What would have gone wrong?

"I mean, it feels like it's... it's not enough privately (...).

"Is it not enough..."

"Yes.

It's about how the shield is evaluated and tested, but it depends on the soldier's sense for a long time.

Please also incorporate a method that allows you to rate this part a little more numerically.

Of course, the feeling of a soldier is important, but it's something called evaluation (...), so others... especially if you convince the civilians, you'll need some number.

"Is it a number..."

"For example, you would have to test a soldier to drop the sword vertically until it penetrates before you have a meeting with the sword to make an assessment, and record its height... or you would have to figure out some way to test the strength of a shield.

How many other shields do you use for the test?

How many prototypes are available and how many are used for numerical tests, and how many soldier meetings are to be tested?

Shall I be more specific?

Next time I come to King's Capital. Keep it together by the middle of January.

"Yes, I understand.

Andersen nods.

"What's going on with what you asked Mr. Tracy to do?

"I go to bookstores, shops that deal with old books, and I list a lot of things, but...

Sorry, it's going to take a little longer to wrap up.

"Really?

If the money is inexhaustible, 'You shouldn't buy it all!' And I can luxuriously hold you back, but...

I can't do it.

How much do you need in cost?

"Right... I think I need 13 gold coins.

"Okay. Then we will give you 18 gold coins (...) to fund, so please align them as the first round.

"Wow... okay.

"Is there anything else?

"So long if not.

We will return to the Elvis Mansion for future appointments.

As I said a little earlier, the next coming to Wang Capital is the middle of January of the award ceremony.

There will be construction of the institute and securing your rooms, so... how long did Mr. Tracey's tenure as College Director last?

"It's the end of March.

"The Institute will now be scheduled to open in mid-April.

That way you'll be able to come with Mr. Cade and Mr. Cohen.

"" Yes!

"You can always face the test platoon.

In the meantime, I'm asking Count Elvis to select a candidate for your room.

It's good to think about the date when it will be transferred after it arrives.

Either way, you will be in Elvis territory by April, so please relax until then.

Well, I'll leave that area to Mr. Meyer and Mr. Andersen.

"" Yes.

Meyer and Andersen nod.

"In the meantime, that's the place.

Well, good luck today.

I guess the next time I see you... is after I officially get the title and the decree of the director of the institute comes out.

Takeo stands up smiling bitterly.

"I'll see you guys later.

"" "Ha!

Everyone on the spot stands up to thank you.

The first face-to-face meeting of the institute was over.
