Living in this World with Cut & Paste

Episode 123: Human Resources in Wangdu

This is your father's office, the king.

Now I've been waiting for a certain person to come with my father.

Waiting lightly with my father for a meeting about the future, I heard a voice from across the door that I was used to hearing along with the sound of a knock.

"Excuse me, did you call?"

"... are you here, come in"

As soon as he spoke to the Lord of Knock over the door, the door of the office opened, and the caller entered the room.

"Sire Farren, Your Highness Alto, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

Most of the openings, I see a guy with his head down, and he laughs bitterly when he's as tough as ever.

"What, here's the sudden call. Nothing to worry about."

When his father spoke so, the one who called... yes, the First Knight Commander, Franz Works, raised his face.

From time to time, the Knights Commander has many opportunities to deal with our royalty in that position.

Especially with me. I am an opponent who has only frequent face-to-face encounters in combat training.

"Franz, I need to talk to you about expecting you. There's absolutely no point in talking now."

Franz drooped his head with a tense face as his father squeezed his face tight and spoke so.

In fact, telling him from now on will be an extremely confidential story.

Perhaps Franz is nervous, but I still can't hide the nervousness, even though my father and I can trust him.

In a tingly atmosphere, tell us why your father called Franz.

"Have you heard that Mine, who became my stepson, destroyed the Orc settlement some time ago?

In fact, this matter is also treated as top secret, and only some people in the royal palace are making it public.

I can't imagine what kind of hassle would happen if I made public the existence of a human being who can destroy Oak King alone.

Besides, Mine became a member of our royal family.

I know it's going to happen to you. It's not going to give you any extra trouble.

"Ha, of course I'm listening"

"And when Mine exterminated the settlement, there was a woman who protected it..."

Here Father hangs up one last word to see how Franz is doing.

Seeing what Father did, Franz became more and more nervous in my eyes.

"... the woman... was an elf."

Franz, known for his calm settling from time to time, didn't seem to be calm about this fact on the boulder.

I opened my eyes as funny and the movement stopped pitting.

"... e, is it the survival of the Elves... that..."

... boulder, it's Franz.

I understand the seriousness of the matter.

This story can be a spark of strife between nations if we do poorly.

If we know that there is a survival of the elves, the powerful and the good men of the whole world will forget their place and take their place.

Yes, like King Wills once did.

Also, the owner of the decent idea would move to protect her because of the sin of the abominable incident committed by the Hume tribe.

Either way, the Kingdom of Augusta will be caught up in such emotional swirling strife between desire and penance.

The dispute may cause the country to decline and in some cases be judged by the Divine Beast, as Wills did.

Never let that happen.

"That elf woman, though, is now protecting in Lucas' Adventurer Guild.

... but it's just a matter... The Alliance Commander has asked me to protect him. "

"It will certainly happen.

If it is also the protection of a boulder elf, it will remain in the hands of a single guild leader.

… even if I were in the same position, I would ask His Majesty for help. "

"Well, I'm sure you're right, this will be a story I'll keep.

But it is true that there are problems with simply protecting it in the royal palace. "

Listening to his father's words, Franz thinks a little and is convinced that he does.

"... So what are we going to do?

"I decided to leave it with Mine."

"To Lord Mine?!?... No, indeed... can it also be said to be the safest place...

Of course it's combat power, but I'm sure it's also externally easy. "

While observing Franz, Father must have been convinced that there was no leak in this story from him.

He also told him the most important secret of what to do with the Elf.

"So I called you.

I want you to take care of the Elf woman in Mine's clan, so I need that escort. "

An arm stands and a trustworthy person.

My father and I couldn't think of a name other than him.

... When he says no, there's no after honesty.

I can see my father awaiting Franz's reply in the face of tension as to what decision he will make.

"... will someone like me receive such a major role and be able to live up to that expectation?

Yes, when it comes to standing arms, for example, Cecil, the Second Knight Commander... "

Second Knight Commander Cecil, indeed, his arms stand too.

But I have to wonder if you're a respectable person as a human being.

There's no way I can tell such a secret to such a person.

And most of all, the problem is, he's an unmatched lady lover.

If you leave this matter to me, you may attack the girl who should be the subject of escort instead.

No matter how many people Cecil stands for, I don't think a person with a female favorite sexual root can stand the beauty of an elf.

"Franz, you... don't think you can do it yourself?

Unexpectedly, Franz smiled back when I said so.

"... OK, either way, I respect you. This is a direct story from Your Majesty and His Highness.

I will accept it with all due respect.

Will the Knights be discharged? What happens to my family again? "

Will you take it!... thankful.

I know my father is relieved, too.

"It's a practical story from here, let me explain it to you.

First of all, from the position but the First Knights, it will be treated as my Kingsguard.

You're positioned as your direct report.

Work is a clanhouse in Mine that Lucas plans to be able to do.

I'll have a home here, so it'll be in the form of a family migration. "

Explain salaries, entitlements, and other things properly, and once again understand that they are never left transitions.

"... and like this, do you have any questions?

"Right, as for the specific transfer, it seems we're still ahead of us...

Is it just me, who will be transferred in this case?

"No, either way, you're gonna need the clerk of the clan or the personnel at the reception.

I'm going to let about two people I can trust from a civilian.

And about the escort mission, you can't go around alone?

Bring me two people you can trust.

If I don't have a problem with the interview, I'll enroll him. "

Well, that's why the race was thrown.

We need to find the talent quickly and engage my brother-in-law (Mine).
