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

Courtney and Luke were walking behind Tara, who was with them when they finished their meals.

They were both so nervous that they told me about their father's profession that they didn't know what dinner tasted like.

"Um... Senior, where are you headed?

Courtney listens.

"I'll be there by now.

... Yes, here.

and knock on the door when it stops in front of a single room door.

Tara opens the door because a reply came back from inside right away.

"Excuse me.

Luke Meyer, Courtney Rack. We brought you both names.

"Yeah, Tara, thank you.

Come in, both of you.

"... excuse me.

"Excuse me.

When Courtney and Luke enter the room.

One man and one woman waited.

The two are recommended by Tara to be directed to a seat by the door.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Kitty Emmett.

I'm a third grader at this college.

"I'm Maurice Flint.

It's the same sophomore as Tara.

We'll both sit down and say hello.

"Sa, both of you.

Tara prompts me to say hello.

"Yes! I say Courtney Luck.

I'll be enrolled this year.

Best wishes.

"My name is Luke Meyer.

Best wishes, seniors.

They both say as they stand dignified beside their chairs.

"... surprised.

The soldier's kid is solid, too.

"Right. Senior Kitty.

We'll both be nervous, but we're not going to do anything.

I called with the intention of giving you two a little information.

I don't mind if you sit down.

"" Excuse me.

Courtney and Luke take their seats.

Tara prepares the tea and serves it in front of the two before taking a seat.

"Erm... we're both nervous..."

Kitty sees Maurice and Tara.

"That's right.

Senior Kitty, he said he wouldn't normally think of wearing it to his quarters and suddenly being summoned by seniors.

Tara says with a bitter smile.

"Am I?

But these two thought they were in danger if they didn't get in this way right away.

"I know what Senior Kitty's trying to say... but wasn't it good after the induction ceremony?

"That's right.

I'm also implementing it because I was strongly instructed... was it really good?

Maurice and Tara are telling Kitty.

"Don't you think you can't help but two people and still do that?

Kitty reopens and tells the two of them.

"Yeah... well... right.

Whatever you say after you've done it, it doesn't make sense.

Meyer, you and Mr. Rack.

Maurice asks the two freshmen as they give up.

"We're fine with the name.

Courtney says.

"Well... Luke, you and Mr. Courtney.

"Seniors, there is no need to honor us.

"Okay.

By the way, Tara... how did you two get here?

"I brought you here normally, didn't I?

I mentioned the position of parent of last resort from the beginning because I seemed lost.

Tara says normally.

"... that's really a last resort.

Ha... let's discuss how to invite him after.

Well, Luke, Courtney... the two of you called me under one circumstance, but it would be easier to explain if you also told me who the parents are over here.

First of all, Senior Kitty's father is Deputy Director of External Strategies at the Foreign Office, Tara's father is Director of Crisis Management at the General Affairs Bureau, and my father is Deputy Director of Human Resources Control at the Human Resources Bureau.

Luke and Courtney are listening with a difficult face.

"Ah... Mr. Maurice, you both feel in trouble, don't you?

"I guess.

And I have trouble knowing the weight of my fathers' titles.

Well... all of a sudden we'll both be human beings on the Wang Du side in our quarters.

"Something unusual happened this year.

We have instructions from our fathers, too.

There's one thing I want you two to know about what's going to happen, and one thing I want you to do is join our faction.

I don't have to worry too much about the faction, but would you like me to consider it if I could?

That's what Kitty declares.

"I'm sorry, Senior Kitty, but I appreciate the first piece of information.

But please put me on hold regarding the second faction.

Courtney responds instantly.

Luke meditates his eyes.

"Mm-hmm... well, I can't help it.

The main thing is to give him advance information in the first place, and, Mr. Maurice, you don't have a problem with that, do you?

Kitty also says as she thinks.

"Yes, the premise is not to restrict the behavior of the two.

Neither do we, but it wouldn't be fun to go into Royal College and get swept up in my parents' work.

I know, but I'm just going to talk to the two of you early from the decision that it's not a good idea to bother your parents with our actions.

I don't mind you two taking it easy on me.

Maurice nods at Kitty's words and sees Luke and Courtney.

Luke thinks.

"So is Courtney...

Hi. I think my parents are giving me some instructions. I think they're talking ahead of time.

I haven't actually been told anything, and I've only heard about the fact that 'the next head of the Elvis family is enrolled this year, and the Kitamizato family will be assigned to honor him' and 'I'll pick up the rumors in the dormitory'.

Ah... they ask you what the lab is about?... I have no idea, and...

'Pay attention to solicitation', but this is' solicited 'as much as you want.

Dad... a lot happened from the beginning.

I'm sorry if I failed.

He feared that Luke's purpose in entering the Royal College, which he promised his father, who had moved to a distant place, was likely to change.
