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

Takeo and the commissioner-general's clerk were relaxing and grabbing snacks at a remote coffee shop.

The Bertes and Alice and the others are missing clothes and going to buy daily necessities.

"A soup full of vegetables is good too.

"Braised salty golo meat wine tastes good too.

It feels firm and fleshy, but when I chew it, the gravy comes out carefully, but it breaks down a bit because it's soft.

Excellent work.

Takeo and the clerk are indulging in "some of these coffee shops," he nodded.

The old couple on the other hand had not been able to smile.

Well, it's caused by Takeo...

Takeo was talking about how the Bertes, Nilde and Gilda, and Assena were here.

"Dear Kitamizato, This is what I heard earlier...

Is that true?

"It's true.

It won't be content to lie about.

They didn't sin anything, they were enslaved when they realized it.

Two Elf daughters in particular have been raped. Right in front of my parents.

"Is that... going through?

"... it's that beauty with a rare species called elves, isn't it?

It wouldn't be weird to have a guy who wants to buy it even if he slaps a big one.

And there will be a lot of people who mainly run backwards with that idea.

Besides, that country recommends slaves.

"... and two children are orphans in Slam Street...

I didn't even know my parents were dumped.

What kind of state is that?

"That's the kind of state it is. Our country's neighbors.

I was able to bring them in because I happened to want them.

We were just on edge with each other.

Similar things have happened and been tolerated in that country hundreds... hundreds of times.

"Terrible... too harsh..."

"Ugh..."

The old couple moans.

"Unfortunately, it is true.

And next to us is a nation without a human species.

If we lose a nation like that, we... at least all the executives will go to this hierarchy, right?

How many times heavier taxes are there for the residents?

"... can you win..."

"I can't say for sure that we can win as things stand if we analyze the situation accurately.

Both soldiers and generals will be able to do their best to bring them into the draw.

"That's the situation.

"Yeah. I'm not optimistic about the upper management.

How to draw.

It's an intellectual battle now.

"Does Slowness Expropriate Soldiers?

"Unfortunately, it doesn't make sense if you did.

Soldiers don't just have to be aligned.

And expropriating it reduces productivity in the territory.

Therefore, we have to manage to operate with the current number of people.

Ma. I don't seem to be thinking about a full-scale invasion over there right now.

While we're at it, our defensive capabilities are supposed to increase.

"I want you to go well.

"Yeah. Everyone thinks so and strives.

And. Defense is our story, so don't worry about it.

I'm talking about those families.

"Let me keep a close eye on you.

Tell the farmers around you anyway.

"Right... I have to choose the words well... but I'm still under a slave contract with me about slavery.

Maybe they'll say something about all this.

"... won't they disarm you?

"The contract is to be terminated in 25 years.

Besides, I don't think that family has a problem, but... it's a problem when they cross the border now.

It could give the war a big name over there.

... you said you kidnapped him.

"... kidnapping? But they're from the Willip Union..."

"That's just what we're saying. From the other side, we're in the kingdom of Azpur.

It could distort anything.

So we can't let them cross the border at least until we've finished the measures we can take to draw.

It's a collar for that.

You can disarm me when you're ready for that... but I guess you'll have to do some more years.

"Okay.

I'll talk to the farmers around me about slaves and how they've been.

"It's fine if you're not familiar with it.

Besides... you're particularly worried about Enma and Flora privately.

"Yes... right.

You can't make them recognize that all humans do that.

But... you know... when you ask me if we're all going to have the same idea... "

"... the mouthless will leave, won't they?

Takeo and the old couple worry.

"Dear Kitamizato, Apply pressure?

A civil servant from the General Inspectorate will listen.

"To rumors? That's pointless.

Rather, rumors would be more radical if we put pressure on them.

Sometimes not only does the tail come on, but it is likely to grow to the hands and feet.

"You're a new demon.

"Absolutely.

A demon called Rumor Talk is a pain in the ass.

Was it a special monster that even if he told the truth, we would only hear things that were convenient to us in the end?

I don't take responsibility for that habit because he said it without judging the good and bad information on his own... it's the worst demon.

Well... what to do... "

"Is it community interaction the best?

"In the end, you're there.

Do you have to call a gathering early and let them know about the Bertes...

"It's harmless," "I work hard," "I'm not taking away your job"... is that an explanation?

"Should I be present, too?

"Right.

In case you can help me... maybe I can avoid an attack just because I'm there.

"Okay.

Couple. Please let me know as soon as you know your plans as I join you.

"Yes. I'm in awe.

Dear Kitamizato, the basics are that the Elvis family is not leaving, so can we talk?

"Yeah. Unless there's more to it... I'll punish you if you touch the law.

"Okay.

We will lead the discussion.

"Yeah. I'll take care of it.

The old couple snorted.
