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

It was almost lunchtime.

Frederick had come to the kitchen a few more times.

"" Ooh, ooh.

The whirlpool was heard from the kitchen.

"Looks like you made it this time.

Frederick walks into the kitchen.

"Ah, good job, Mr. Frederick.

Takeo finds Frederick and speaks up.

"Yes, good luck to all.

What do you say?

"Frederick... you might have made something amazing!

"George, don't tell me while I run my eyes blood.

I'm so scared.

Frederick sighs.

"Dear Takeo, what can you do?

"I served the crushed filling from the beans, the kiki powder from the soybeans, and the dough because I made it.

I'm cooking a bit for dinner because I think I can do something else about soybeans.

Oh, and I'm going to make another treat.

"Really?

Hmm... is this the dough?

The colors are yellow and black, right?

Frederick looks intrigued at the kichi powder dough and crumbled filling dough on the plate.

"Yeah. Doesn't look delicious, does it?

Takeo smiles bitterly.

"You've never seen a black treat... have you?

No, do you have anything with black honey on it?

"This is just beans and sugar, and it's just soy and sugar.

Oh, have some dark eyed tea with me.

"Hmm... shall I take it?

Frederick started eating.

"... I got it.

Frederick thinks after eating everything and closing his eyes.

By the way, after a bite, he said "ho" and exclaimed.

"... what do you say?

Takeo listens terribly.

"That's very tasty.

Was it a kimchi powder and crumbled filling, I also properly claim the unique flavour of each being a bean as well as sugar sweetness.

It's just... is it the skin of the beans in the crumble filling? Some of you may not like this texture.

"In that case, you can also filter it many times with cloth, etc. on the itinerary before mixing sugar and boiled beans at the end, so you can handle it.

"Really?

Hmm? George, what's wrong?

"... Takeo, are you going to filter that hot filling?

Again and again?

"Yeah. That's why I didn't do it this time.

"Well... well.

Frederick, think about making as many as you can, but wait a minute to filter. Figure out how to do it.

"... okay.

George, is this dough at noon?

"You're not. I have regular sandwiches available at noon.

Dumplings are tea time this afternoon.

"Okay.

Tell that to the Guests.

"Got a reminder from the guest room?

"Yes... this dough would seem fine to serve right away, but...

Well, if George and the others say later, you should.

Frederick nods.

"Is Takeo here for lunch?

"Right.

Takeo and the others started preparing light lunches.

------------------------

Arkin and the others were having lunch at the cafe on the back street.

"" Huh... "

Anita and Mirko had a deep sigh.

"Hmm? Are you tired because you two are only two days old?

Brooke cares about the two of them with a bitter smile.

"Yes... no!? I'm fine!"

"I'm fine too!

Anita and Mirko were too different from the ghostly faces from Brooke's training and now they know, "Which one is the real deal??" I may be surprised, but Brooke doesn't realize it.

"Oh?

For the time being, the boundary between march training and the training ground forest...

In the meantime, as of morning, of the drawings I received from Lord Kitamizato... how long have you been gone?

Brooke asks Arkin.

"Erm... the trail I started yesterday... you're done on one side.

Shall we do the other tomorrow?

Arkin takes out his glasses and checks the contents.

"Mm-hmm... the training ground was huge, wasn't it?

I was wondering if we could do some boundary building and get this over with.

"Right. As a training ground, we need to create a boundary between the trail behind the back castle gate and the square behind it, and the shooting range or... these woods.

Looks like you want to build a stables and a resting place in the square as the dwellers of Lord Korra.

Sounds like a lot of work to do.

But it doesn't say anything about what you said yesterday.

So you don't have to do it yet?

"Target... Lord Kitamizato is really trying to give us a small gun.

"What? Disgruntled?"

"Yes, I'm not particularly dissatisfied or anything.

Specialize the small gun in ranged attacks from 400m to 150m to conserve magic and use magic when it reaches within 150m.

I'm not even going to complain because it seems like I'm going to save a relative amount of magic and push for more value for the magician.

But... it's a small gun.

"Hmm... well as a magician (...) is it subtle?

"Well, hey.

We have a strong self-esteem that no other soldier or citizen can do. "

"I guess the advent of Lord Kitamizato will make me feel privileged so far (...) that the magician will not be able to use it.

That's just to say we're going to need a new era of magicians.

"I wonder what that looks like?

"Well... I guess the time to think of it as special with just shooting magic (...) is over.

Maybe that means we need to create a more advanced organizational structure. And it could mean more work.

"... it's troublesome to have more work to do.

"Not at all.

And you saw three properties today.

"The meeting with the two civilian... was the third on the list, wasn't it?

"Right.

You were both good yesterday.

"That must be Lord Meyer and Lord Andersen over there.

If it was for families to see today... it would have been the same interval as a pre-dossier, wouldn't it?

"Right. In the meantime, I need to see all the rooms you're referring me to.

"Yeah.

So, Anita, Mirko, I'm gonna go check on your room in a little while, okay?

"" Yes!

The two replied.
