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

A room in the General Inspectorate.

"That's what your husband and Konoha told you. Father.

Gina is reporting to Victor.

"Hmm... that's a lot of credit.

"I didn't know you had Yingjie buds. Father, this is your husband's joke, right?

"... leaving aside what we found.

You think the Lord, who persuades the storekeepers and entertains industry in the realm, finds Steno Technologies and the Bertes, pulls them out of the kingdom's strongest Wangdu Guard as his own men, and entrusts them with the selection of additional personnel for the Wangdu Guard, missees Gina's abilities?

"Ugh... it doesn't seem like it.

Am I that good?

"It's a classification of excellence because at work everything ripens without graduation.

It's good that I don't even have a hand as a parent... but I'm sure Gina will need a friend.

I also know the Lord's worries.

Victor nods.

"... was your father there?

"I'm with the Knights Commander cursing each other, but...

I think it would be nice to call that a friend, but he was a person who could discuss it without a backdrop.

"Huh? The Knight Commander?

You were always respectful, weren't you?

"Apparently not.

But he was the one who said what he wanted to say in advance and at meetings.

I'd like to know what he thought of me.

Victor laughs in a frightened mood.

"You were close.

"Well, yeah. I need my men.

Gina, too, is right about the Lord. It will be critical to be careful not to fall in love with those who are complacent or surrounded by them.

All you have to do is make friends as you like while you work.

Whether you're a good friend or not would be another story.

Looking forward to it.

"Even your father...

So, what are good friends?

"You are the one who makes us suffer together, and you are the one who makes us suffer at times of need.

It would be like everyone around you would say something really hard to say to Gina.

"... are you there?

"I think he's here.

I may or may not have a friendship that I want to make.

At least we'd be friends if we noticed... don't think there's anything like it.

There will be many chances that you will meet the person you feel comfortable with if you speak individually.

"... the instructions are vague.

Gina makes a difficult face.

"I can't help that. Neither I nor the Lord have ever been to a dormitory.

I don't know, so I guess I can only give you rough advice.

Victor laughs bitterly.

"... what about your husband, who even looks at the boarding house he's never been to?

"I guess that means I have a lot of imagination.

Gina, are you ready?

"Yes.

I'm ready.

I was wondering if I should buy more over there.

"Yeah, okay.

Tomorrow, then, we will help the Lord and Alice advance, the day after tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, we will help with the specialty festival.

The General Inspectorate has contacted us that we are ready to leave in four days' time.

Gina has no problem boarding the carriage as Dear Smith's treat.

If there is anything missing, I would be willing to buy more along the way.

"Yes, I'm in awe.

Victor and Gina snorted.

Takeo's study.

Takeo is "aero" and "fire" with warm winds to dry the oil paper.

"Hey, Takeo.

Yeah, I told Gina, but... are you okay?

Konoha asks Takeo for a cup of tea.

"Mm-hmm... well, can you handle it?

"I wouldn't have a hard time figuring out what caused the jerk.

There will be collective psychology... and the main culprit was determined to be the one who explained it earlier (...), but it's actually more shady and complicated.

"... are you a shady fig?

I'm not sure what the definition of a fig (...) is in the first place.

I'll tell you, 'You can't be a jerk,' but if you don't know what 'jerk' looks like, it doesn't make sense.

I need to tell you about one for now. You'll be the 'perpetrator at some point'.

Besides, there hasn't been a time since history when you're a jerk.

Wouldn't it be a joke for the big countries to say the impossible challenges to the small countries or, conversely, for the small countries around them to attack the big countries simultaneously?

Perhaps it doesn't make a difference what countries and individuals are doing just because of differences in size.

"Huh... that could be an enduring challenge there.

"I tend to forget, Gina was different from us, wasn't she?

I don't even care lately.

"Looks like Takeo.

And blood is going to be best told that it's a monoracial classroom, isn't it?

"... Mm-hmm. Konoha, we're just talking here.

I consider (...) birth places within the same race (...) to be more prejudicial than other species.

"You mean the birthplace of the human species?

"Yeah. There may indeed be an abomination for other species... but I think that comes from the difference between living conditions being different in the first place and physical abilities.

If I were to say it, it would be the fear that comes from the fact that there are too many things I don't know and I don't know how to handle them.

But when I look in the city, I wonder if the parents' interest is greater in the difference in where they were born, whether they live in the center of the city or in the slums.

"Well... because Slam Street is less secure.

Prejudice coming from bad bare lines, I guess?

"Prejudice that comes from birth even though it's the same person as prejudice that comes from interracial ignorance...

Which do you think will be gone first?

"That's a tough question to ask.

So you think there's nothing wrong with Gina?

"Being of other races is strange at first. Even if you are directed, you will also be able to be on your side if you know who Gina is.

Still, there are people who think that other species are savage, but...

Because of the pressure on me and Smith Boy as a nobleman in the dormitory, I don't think he would be jerking off to stand out.

Plus, you're human. Wouldn't it be sweet to say what it is to be human?

"I wish Gina had wolf ears - she'd have a reputation for being cute.

"When Gina really fights, she's got ears, right?

"Shh!? You've never seen it before, have you?

"Huh? I had a dog ear when I knocked down an orga in the field before?

"Let me touch you next time.

Konoha said it was fun.
