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

The official residence of the Presidency of the United Wilip.

"Excuse me.

Secret Service General Louis Seijou is here to report.

We're going through to the 1st office.

I will tell the lord of the mansion when the butler enters the second office.

"Right... so go.

The man took his seat.

"Whoa! Are you back?

A man opens the door and comes in.

"Ha! President Angel.

I'm back from my assignment.

Saijo says as he stands.

"Well... I'll have the report out later, but for now, shall I hear a brief report?

Anhel sits at the executive desk.

"Ha!"

Seijo stands in front of the desk.

"Well, someone who accompanied me said I couldn't seem to break into the treasure trove of the kingdom of Azpur..."

"I couldn't force myself because my hand was in front of the door.

Besides, it was strictly forbidden to kill, so I don't think there's a problem.

"Right.

So? The report came... was it an interview and surveillance of Viscount Kitamizato?

Is this a dangerous person? Or will you be a collaborator?

"I was making that decision... and there seems to be no direct threat to our country.

I formerly knew him in the Katlanda Empire, but I don't think he'll be a collaborator because his inauguration is on the Demon King's side.

"Well...

So. This is the brief background of a newcomer aristocrat taken from the kingdom of Azpur.

Anhel takes the paperwork out of the desk drawer and puts it out in front of Seijo.

"Excuse me.

... Really?

Seijo looks gently inside and returns to Angel.

"He said he was of civilian origin and had repelled this when the king was attacked by demons within the kingdom, recognized by the king and given the Viscount as the director of the institute.

General Seijo, does this guy have a pretty head?

Anhel asks as she looks at the material.

"... it doesn't say how it felt to be attacked by demons, does it?

"Ah. As I've just seen the information on Kitamizato.

"I don't know that my head is going to be pretty... and it has a spirit on it, so there will be some assistance.

But I think there's a certain place where people are told to lead missions to other countries.

"Right. Was he a spiritual magician?

Besides, I'm pretty sure the mission isn't the kind of job you leave to newcomers.

You're going to the demon kingdom lab.

"As it was written in the brief background of the newcomer nobility, the Institute has heard from the Katlanda Empire and one on our side and one on the Demon King's side of the system of two places and Lord Kitamizato.

It's just... Lord Kitamizato's Second Laboratory seems to have a decorative feel for our First Laboratory.

It seems that we are now working hard to gather research assignments and talent.

He personally said he wanted to try to invest in agriculture while being an institute.

In fact, we buy elves as a family in Dolores country.

"The laboratory will be dominated by weapons and magic implements... agriculture... I see. You're aiming for the bottom line of national power.

Maybe Kitamizato is someone who can see the distance.

But... it's going to be horny to have agriculture in the lab.

I wonder what this kitamizato thinks.

And the kingdom of Azpar will begin soldiering from slavery, won't it?

Well, a similar story has been coming from the other side for a long time.

"Yes, although I recognize Lord Kitamizato told me to go buy it because I want a good people.

"... I can think of a lot of things... but normally, it's for training against the demon kingdom.

You think our plan's leaking?

"I thought it was too soon.

I was stepping on it a year or two later... but it seems no wonder it was leaked to the extent of rumors from the military department.

And it will leak from other countries.

"Right... you told the lords.

Four-and-a-half years later, two opposed to the war, four in favor, two on hold... "

"Is it likely that the number of invading troops will be determined?

"Oh. This is an invasion. Get it out of the country.

Considering the replenishment as well, a total of 10,000 people in seven houses would be capped.

"... Was the kingdom of Azpur against 3,500 in terms of the second prince?

Will the Knights be dispatched from Wang Du, so is it 4000?

"On the part of the Katlanda Empire, the second and third armies would deploy, with 7,000 and the Kingdom of Azpur about 4,000.

Maybe we'll have to send reinforcements to the Katlanda Empire.

"Then... Master Banderas, Lord on the side of the Katlanda Empire, would be fine.

"... Banderas and Falke are going to have 2,000 people.

Four other houses will have 1,000, and I will have 2,000... you think I need 2,000?

"Well, I'm a Secret Service, so I won't be joining the war... but I wonder if it's okay somewhere in the 1000.

Anyway, I'll show you a few for intimidation over there, and I was wondering if there was a problem.

"Right.

Well, I think the slaves will sell in the next four and a half years.

I guess I should secure it soon, too.

How'd it go with Dolores?

"It was lively.

But... that's the heart of the slave trade in the first place.

I've been vibrant for a long time.

"So is that.

... Okay. Give me the report later.

"Ha!

Okay. Excuse me.

Seijo gratefully leaves.

"... well... now all you have to do is make sure you get the hang of it.

Hehe. With more territory, that would be cheap for the next presidency.

Angel looked out the window and nibbled.
