Gaiden Episode 33

The investigation had to be returned soon because I lost the battery of the wolf squad's rifle.

It's too late today so I'll spend the night in the desert and return to the ship tomorrow.

"Dad, are you still awake?"

As I was sitting outside the camp on the dunes and watching the night sky, Friede came.

"Is you still awake? Tomorrow I'll just go home, but I don't know what will happen. Take a break."

I said that, but I'm not sleeping so I can't say that much.

"Do you eat oranges before going to bed?"

Orange brought to scurvy control in preparation for a long journey.

I'm returning this time, so I'm giving it to everyone to reduce the load.

Friede, who loves citrus fruits in general, sat down beside me.

"Yeah, let's get half done"

Do not decide the distribution without permission.

Dad wants to do a little more for you.

I split the orange in half with the skin and give the bigger one to Fride.

"If you eat this, go to bed?"

"Yes, thank you!"

Good smile.

When I laugh, I mean, it's just like my mother, Vanessa.

Grandmother's good smile.

In the cold night breeze of the desert, we enjoy the aroma and taste of rising oranges.

"Hey dad, where is this?"

"It's a Belusa orchard. It's run by Girsh."

"Oh, after all. It's so sweet and delicious."

That old man is a great sweet tooth for the habit of Jinbei. As he grew older and his alcohol became weaker, he became more and more sweet.

However, this sweetness is reminiscent of the citrus fruits of the past.

"nostalgic……"

"What?"

"No, no ... that's right."

Is it time for this child to teach me my origin?

I don't want to hide it from my child, and I hope you know my true form.

Friede may be an extra burden, but let her ego forgive her.

"How much did Friede learn about reincarnation?"

"Well, I learned only the basics of necromancy in the magic department, so it was a bit. At that time, the soul of a person can be reborn even if I die. I will lose my memory."

Therefore, there are no confirmed cases, and there is no hypothesis.

The few exceptions are me.

"Dad seems to have actually undergone a reincarnation. That is why he has memories of his previous life."

When I say so, Friede stops eating oranges and stares at me with a somewhat anxious look.

"What? ... Really? Dad?"

"Oh, I've been able to confirm that my memories are correct to some extent.

I had to laugh.

"Dad's previous life was human. And it was a completely different world, a world without magic and demons."

Friede's reaction was tough, with orange tufts.

I understand her feelings.

Follow me.

"I don't need to worry. Dad has lived in my childhood with memories of my previous life. I was saved many times by those memories. Ilia and my teacher ... I know this. "

It would have been difficult for a werewolf to understand humans only by his demonic values.

That is why I was able to find happiness in this world, undoubtedly because of memories from the previous world.

I went to Friede and continued:

"Dad has ever made various credits because he has a memory of his life before. That's not a big deal. Even if someone else from the previous life reincarnated as a viet, he would have the same result."

The powerful interpersonal abilities of a werewolf and the power of a magician.

And the organizational power of the Demon King Army, which has been modernizing.

If you add the wisdom of modern people to this, you can do whatever you want in this world.

Friede then looks sad and says:

"But I hate if anyone other than Dad is Dad ..."

"Hah, yes. Yes, it wasn't the right word. Of course, even my dad."

Reincarnated, I was blessed with the best workplace, the best teachers, the best bosses, and the best companions.

And the best mate and the best children.

Nobody except me wants to pass this best life.

"Dad hasn't had much good in his previous life. He didn't have much bad, but he wasn't happy. But now he has Friede."

"Are you happy now?"

"Of course. I have a daughter as good as you, and I can't be unhappy."

When I answered seriously, my daughter laughed with a strange voice, "Fuhe."

I'm happily grinning.

Then I told Friede everything.

"Because my father was a human, I could understand the complexity of human society and the psychology peculiar to humans.

Values that are difficult for demons to understand are familiar to me.

I knew a little about where and how the human mind would move.

So instead of making enemy uselessly, on the contrary, we made allies from one end.

"After that, exploding gunpowder, exploding something that seems to be sodium, various things ..."

"I just exploded ..."

I wish I was a little more familiar with natural science.

"So, honestly, I guess I could have done better if a smarter person had been reincarnated as a werewolf. Dad is the limit."

It was a bit terrible, but at least I did my best.

It's good that efforts are rewarded.

"That's why my dad is an ordinary ordinary person .... Why are you talking about that?"

"I don't know?"

Friede says exasperated, then gazes at me for a moment.

"I still think Dad is a great guy, because nobody else could do anything like Dad."

Whatever the reason, I'd be glad to be praised by my daughter.

"Well, you can do something better than your dad."

"No, absolutely impossible"

"I can do it, I will train myself to do it."

`` No, it's impossible !? ''

"Hahahaha"

I am asexually fun and laugh unintentionally.

He then crumpled Friede's head.

"Don't worry. You're a great guy."

"Is it going to be?"

"Dad will guarantee"

I think it's an idiot, but after all I can only see the future where this child will be a great guy.

With this child, the future of demons and humans will be bright.

There is no basis.

"It's a story that my dad was a human in the previous life."

"Yup?"

She glances at her and glances at me.

"Dad is still a dad, right?"

"of course"

Promising the same quality of Vit.

I spoke as brightly as possible to dispel Friede's concerns.

"Surely my dad was from a different world, but now we are the werewolf Weid von Eindorf. The Deputy of the Demon King and the dad of Friede. Nothing else."

There is no difficulty in the past life.

It's a lie if there isn't at all, but there's no way to go back.

Right now I'm Friede's father.

Friede was a bit confused, but finally threw his orange bunch into his mouth.

Then, while shyly shouting, he says in a different tone.

"Father"

"what?"

Then she bowed down at me.

"Um, um, thank you for your guidance and encouragement in the future .... What?"

"I don't think you need" what a mess ... "

"No, I was so shy ..."

Those who are told are also shy.

We remain silent for a while, then Friede looks into my face with interest.

"Hey, Dad"

"what?"

"What was Dad's previous world like?"

It was a very sophisticated and sophisticated society, but it was hard to live ...

I don't want to talk to children without dreams, so I think a little.

So, let me tell you the great things of the past.

That said, Fleide wouldn't be surprised by planes or tanks.

Alright.

"Even before, potato chips ... that was the popular food for thin-fried potatoes, and bagged potato chips were sold."

"Hmm"

Even here, Friede's impression is faint because it is a standard stall.

But here's the production.

"Pouched potato chips last a long time. For about three months, they remain freshly fried, crisp and damp without crunch."

"How is it magic?"

"I don't use any magic. And it's always in every grocery store. The stock is stable and I don't sell out."

"Lie !?"

In this world, any product can be sold out. Because both distribution and production are unstable.

"Furthermore, the price of bagged potato chips is about this size and one copper coin ... I do not need, I can buy three or four bags if there is so much."

`` Yeah !? It's not too cheap !? ''

"Company effort"

The potatoes are cheap, but the cooking oil and fuel are high, so the fried potatoes on the stalls are also reasonably priced.

Our gluttonous daughter drools and drools.

"I'm glad ... if it were so cheap, I would buy it with extra money."

"In that world, the general store is open all night, so you don't have to buy it."

`` Why !?

coming. Like me from the past.

"In addition, the air conditioning can be controlled by a machine, so the store is cool in summer, and it's warm without using fire in winter.

`` So you sell so cheaply and make a profit !? It's strange !? ''

"Oh, I didn't notice a good thing.

As my daughter grows up, I smile.

"That's right. Of course we sell other products and we cut labor costs to the limit, but that's what makes the business anyway."

I break my fingers and count down slowly.

"First, the stable supply of potatoes. Agricultural technology is very well developed, so that potatoes can be harvested stably. Due to their high preservation technology, potatoes can be used all year round. I can do it. "

Friede nodding and fried.

Unless a typhoon hits Hokkaido in succession, such a bad harvest will not occur in modern Japan.

Of course the possibilities are not zero, but I can't imagine it.

With a giggling, I keep going.

"The technology for mass-producing thin fried foods has also been developed, and there is also a technology for bagging thin fried foods for long-term storage. The procedure for transporting them to stores and the technology for product management have been completed. I can do it. "

Friede was silent for a while, but then nodded.

"In other words, it's impossible to imitate Miraraldia!"

Yes, it is correct.

"If you just make a bag of that kind of thing, it would be something if you ask a teacher and Ryuko ..."

Made by the Demon King, Daimao Chips.

Even if the labor cost of the teacher and Ryuko is reduced to about 700 yen per hour, is it about 100,000 yen per bag?

No, the digits may be different.

"Because the production and distribution methods are not established as systems, it can not be helped"

"right……"

Friede was disappointed, but I was happy.

"But with the explanation just now, I was able to understand that much."

"I learned in my dad's class. He said that the system was something. He said that even if we couldn't incorporate the awesome weapons and magic into the system, it wouldn't make much sense, right?"

No, it was.

But I'm so proud of my daughter that I've been able to reaffirm myself.

"So you can't do that unless you combine a number of extremely advanced technologies into a stable and huge system."

Each bag of potato chips I casually ate was packed with the efforts of many people and cutting-edge technology.

It's a thankful thing that you notice when you're gone.

"Oh, Friede. You can easily buy bagged potatoes anytime, anywhere, and anyone. Why don't you want to make such a milardia?"

"Want to!"

"Then, father and you have to work harder. The road is far."

"Yeah, it seems far away"

First of all, we need to increase the yield of potatoes, olives and rape blossoms and stabilize them.

From there.

Friede is more excited and asks me more.

"What else was there? What else was so great?"

"Yes ..."

Looking up at the cold, clear desert starry sky, I was wondering what to talk about next.
