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

"Your Majesty, I'm back.

Talomati shows up as Valeri is processing the documents on her desk in her study.

"... how'd it go?

Valeri puts the writing instrument down, faces up and arms up.

"It seems like something very interesting is happening.

"Right.

Let me hear what you've seen.

"Yes, my Lord.

Talomati begins to explain.

"Huh... I'm in the Willip Union as a slave.

So he happened to be picked up by Viscount Kitamizato.

"That's what happens when you see what it feels like to be left in the deep.

"So... Viscount Fallon deceived us, huh?

"Yes. The King's Army audit hasn't even revealed the facts around it.

I guess I was getting ready for it too carefully.

"... on the contrary, maybe there's no evidence left because I didn't prepare carefully.

But... either way, I've been exposed here for the plot.

"Right.

What can I do for you?

"... Demon kingdom is all about power. Then it is also powerful to chase down the Lord.

"Bye."

"But you don't care that you drove down the lord I recognized.

"... well, that would be.

When Talomati answers, he begins to think narrowly of Valeri's eyes.

At the beginning of his term of office, he recognized the Lords and the King's Army executives in the form of continuity, but then reconsidered them by examining whether Valeri was worthy of the Lords and executives in view of the force and political power.

Of course, those who feel they are not enough are allowed to succeed and reconsider, and those who are satisfied are seated.

Lords and executives other than Fallon today are those recognized by Valeri. Extremely speaking, these people were the next king candidates.

"... is it the choice of the next king... or will it only make Fallon more difficult?

"Can you do that?

"Oh, you'll be able to.

And don't bother if you're greedy enough to be king because you've become a lord.

Well, let's think about something.

"Sure. The other executives will be easier.

But will it work?

"Taking it for granted, it would be normal to consider the act of 'achievement everyone acknowledges' first and foremost familiarly.

There's no way the Lords are taking the lead on anything else.

"Well, that's right.

"Fallon loved to fight, didn't he?

"You're the blood muscle of the Count family, with the Knights of Human Hate up.

"Then the achievement that he would do would be to invade the territory of Elvis, the kingdom of Azpar, and expand the territory.

"... you can do it if you don't choose the means.

"If I or one of my lords were motivated, I would be able to take as much space as a territory ruled by man.

It's obvious because they make those people lords.

But never spread the battle yourself. I chose the gangsters.

"Lord Perni in another territory facing the kingdom of Azpur is willing?

He said, "He did?

Haha, no. He's a master of speech.

Of course, the regiment you're leading is quite powerful, and you can always take the neighboring territory.

But he's not moving.

"Is that what it is?

"Oh. Isn't he the one who went into the Great Fallon to be wise?

It's easy to understand what he thinks. There is a verse where you are attentive to consuming (...) others without pain.

Be a good executive if you think that it will hurt you and yourself a little more.

Rather, as a good thing for the Kingdom of Azpur, the problem is the East.

"Are you in a lot of places?

"Fool in the drawstring, craftsman in the abalone who can only fly, and then the rotten magician?

"... why don't you say it right?

Elves, metal golems, griffons, dwarves, and rich, right?

"And then there's the big drawstrings and the little ones.

"Huh... you're a dragon and a fairy.

Besides, there are demons and angels in the king's army, right?

"Oh, you were there, too. They're comfortable, and they won't be interested in the throne.

Damn... so is the dragon, but it would be so much easier if someone in the King's Army were willing to do it.

Well, in this king's choice, they'll figure out how to live, too.

"Does that work?

"Come on? I'm a sight to behold.

You see who's going to be king.

"Who do you think His Majesty should be?

"Well.

I don't think whoever it is is is going to change that much at the moment, and if you're going to invade, why don't you?

"... why aren't all those people here and invading now?

"That's because your territory is cozy right now.

If you invade weirdly, there will be constant fighting over the crucible from that territory, and it's troublesome to suppress it.

From you, I suppose you want to invade and enjoy the snort.

The executives hate that kind of trouble nowadays.

Besides, the kingdom of Azpur is unwilling to invade in the first place.

It seeks to maintain and prosper the territory as it stands.

And we're trying to coexist with demons without using slaves... can we attack a nation like that?

"Your Majesty is tolerant of the kingdom of Azpur.

"My country is my country.

I would have had a different life if I had been born in the kingdom of Azpur, too.

I can favor it just because I don't employ slavery in the first place.

Well, the demon kingdom is an enemy country. Even if there was some bias in demons, all in all, it's a country that's friendly to humans and demons.

Former Count Fallon is blessed in a way.

I guess I'll spend some time relaxing in the kingdom of Azpur when I retire, too.

"... His Majesty relaxes? Do you even do any work?

"I'd like to be a waiter.

"... it's going to cost a lot just to compensate for the dishes.

"... you can't deny it.

It was Valeri and Talomati imagining their future offerings that they would "not" conclude.
