A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World
Episode 649: Day 59 You didn't do anything today. Demon King's free time.
The usual tea time after dinner.
The one-day report ended today and Smith was happy to say, "I know the direction of the furniture I want," he said.
"Hmm, Smith was good.
Because finding the furniture you like is one pleasure.
And Takeo, is this a paragraph for now?
"Yes.
You asked for what I wanted to make as things stand.
"Right.
But it's just the beginning.
I'm going to have to sell the goods.
"Dear Takeo, Ralph and Roe have reported that the current situation is going well.
Lord, 60 trench coats for 2 new platoons are scheduled for delivery next week.
"Uhm.
I managed to make it to joint training.
"Yes.
But the magician platoon to accompany you is critical.
"Hmm.
Because this joint training also reveals trench coats.
We all want a sense of unity.
The worst I can do is make them deliver during the march.
"Right.
Grandpa Elvis and Frederick nod.
"Well.
Elvis, will you continue to be recruited under His Highness William?
"You're gonna be.
"You will.
Two people answer Takeo's questions instantly.
"Is it?
"Uhm.
At least because Fred and Jesse liked it. Wouldn't the Knights over there buy it all?
"Right.
And then Count Temple might buy it because he'll have it around him.
"If you do... how much more orders will you get?
"Fred's place is three times as good as ours. Did the Knights alone make about 900?
"Right.
The Count Temple family is the same as ours, so there are 300 Knights, right?
"... the Elvis family wore 900, His Highness William... and indeed the manager Ralph told me that you wore 850.
So 900 from the Godwin family and 300 from the Temple family.
... you don't make it the Knights of the Elvis family?
"... um... Frederick, what are we going to do?
"It's a budget...
For now, it depends more on the soldier's end... but the order is going to arrive by then.
Then shall I schedule 300 for our Knights after His Highness William?
"Well...
Either way, the factory we're building right now (...) might not be enough.
Grandpa Elvis leaks a sigh.
"You're kind of all going on with a ton of clapping.
Takeo says it like any other HR.
"Um...
This city may be in a hurry for the time being.
Now, Takeo, we still have time for bed, don't we?
"Even today?
How about as Mr. Frederick?
"Huh.
I'm doing it at noon with Frederick!
You're gonna win today!
"Ah! Grandpa, Master Takeo is having a reverse confrontation with me tonight!
No interruptions!
"Why don't we do it together, just like yesterday?
Come on, let's fight!
"Oh... are you hitting two sides for two days in a row..."
The Elvis tea time was relaxing.
------------------------
In a bedroom in the Kingdom of Demons.
"Humph."
"Sounds like a lot of fun.
Valeri is writing, but he watches as Talomati narrows her eyes.
"Hmm?
Hehe, that's homework from my predecessors!
Valeri laughs niggly.
"The executives won't admit it, will they?
"Huh, that's it.
There's no reason for anyone to get mad at me if I just think about it.
"Huh... I don't think the proposed realm change (...) is worth it, do you?
"Ahhh... I wonder if I'll move Fallon and Perni.
I've been in the same territory for a long time, and...
But because next door is the kingdom of Azpur, it's also a good way to use it as a fence in times of war. "
Valeri graffiti seems to have fun ignoring Talomati's words.
"No, no, you two haven't lost anything, have you?
Viscount Fallon has just taken the lead.
"... um... you want the wasps and drawers ~"
"... is it a horse breed and an elf?
It does seem that the pasture area is decreasing due to the lack of work over there.
And why the elves? I think it's stable over there... "
"Worms have been invading lately.
"Bugs?... Oh, are you from a country, not a lord?
That was also in the report, wasn't it?
"Thinking of it as a demonic kingdom... would be fascinating if we could swap places between that country and Fallon's.
"Well, there's a proper field in 1.5 times the territory of Viscount Fallon's place.
I'd appreciate it if there would be more territory due to damage to the extent of the bug.
"Fallon seems to want to fight, unlike his predecessors.
You won't be late for the worm opponent.
Maybe we can cut another part of the woods.
"That forest is a buffer zone with the kingdom of Azpur.
It's not considered a good idea to cut it open too much.
"Well.
But that's why we need to keep it under control.
Besides, if you sell favors to the Drawers and come to war with the kingdom of Azpur in two countries, you'll be doing well as a demon kingdom in the unlikely event of less damage.
"... that's a mattomo statement for Your Majesty.
What's the real deal? "
"Orders to change territory and fight bug opponents even though they are preparing for human opponents.
Sounds good, sounds sick, doesn't it?
I look forward to Fallon's face then.
"My personality is still bent, but...
You won't be able to change the placement of the country just because of its advantages as a country, and you can't change territory because Viscount Fallon and the executives won't be convinced.
"... I know things from the beginning.
I'm just having fun with my imagination. Why should they let me out... "
Valeri sighs.
"Because it's a shady hobby.
"Oh, I wonder if something fun will happen!
Valeri takes a seat, says something like a child and dives into bed.
"You'll be in a hurry when the year breaks.
"That doesn't matter to me just because someone else is in a hurry.
Huh... I'd like to get out of the office and embark on a vagrancy trip soon ~.
Oh, I have to sign up for a duel with Alice in the Kingdom of Azpur!
"Will you take it?
"Mm-hmm... is there a martial arts tournament or something?
"Do you want to find out?
"No! Knowing that would also be better while traveling!
Time is endless, it should be fun to just hit it again!
"That's right.
"You're unwilling.
"I am the Spirit of Your Majesty, am I not?
It's a decent meal if you're not mentally ill.
Come on, come on, be more outrageous! More pleasure! Drown in more decadence!
"When you tell me, I lose my motivation...
Huh... is there anything interesting... "
Valeri shrugged looking at the ceiling.
