21 Episode 19: Retreat. I don't think I can live with it for now.

Grandpa Elvis was in trouble.

"Well, we roughly heard about each other's...

I have no idea.

"Absolutely.

Takeo strikes a match.

"... Dear Takeo, like other HR..."

and Alice looks frightened.

"What do you want Takeo to do?

"Right... as it stands, I don't know why I came here.

I don't even know how I can go home. I don't even know what I have to do.

But I have to earn a living because I'm alive... "

"It is.

"You're in trouble. I'm not bragging about my strength, or my strategy.

... is my life expectancy in about 3 days?

"Huh!? Do you give up!?

Smith is surprised.

"... no, I just said it myself and recognized the status quo... it's pretty useless, isn't it?

"Um... but you can't benefactor my life without me.

So I'm going to keep it for a while? What do you say? "

"I have no objection.

"I have no objection either.

"Uhm. Then spend some time at our house, Takeo. By the way, I'll give you a reward for saving me later.

"Okay.

and Takeo replied.

"We've got results for now, Grandpa. It's time for me to go back to my room.

Because I have studies.

"Um, I don't mind. Encourage."

"Yes."

and Smith exits.

Four people to see it through.

"So? What do you think?

"What is it?

"I treat you too well. It comes with a 3-meal nap with help.

Everyone also wants to suspect.

It won't even be stylish to be a corpse tomorrow.

"Hmm. What do you think of Alice?

"You saved your grandfather.

That alone would be a good reason to stay for a few days, but...

Does Grandpa want to hire Takeo?

"Hmm. I want you to share my knowledge of the Lord, Takeo.

"There's nothing specific about knowledge, is there?

You know the results and what you can do, and you don't know the itinerary and the ingredients.

"I think it's worth it just knowing how it turns out, huh?

If you don't know the itinerary, just ask the others.

We should all come up with wisdom.

For example, Lord, you said you'd never seen a carriage before?

"I don't remember saying it was the first time I saw it, but you did see the real thing for the first time.

"So what did you use to travel at your Lord's place?

"... by the way, how many days does it take on a horse to get to Wangdu?

"Is it six days as a day trip only?

"That's about it.

Frederick hits the correlation.

"Assuming that it's about 500 km or so, it's about Tokyo to Osaka.

Well, if you leave in the morning, you'll get there that evening.

If we were to hurry, we also had the means to leave at the same time as the bell rang once and arrive before the next bell rang.

"" "What?

The three are stunned.

"There was no magic where Takeo was, was there?

"You didn't.

"What's the speed of that?

"It's an evolved world with pure technology only.

Oh, there's a good word for that.

'Too much technology isn't very different from magic,' they say.

"Wow, can't you use that knowledge for me?

"I mean, you can't tell if you have the knowledge to use it.

"It would be nice if you could just talk to me.

Each time, I don't mind you saying what I thought.

"... you can't promise to just say good things, can you?

"Um, I don't expect that. I'd rather you say something bad.

"Okay.

Be Mr. Elvis' assistant and advisor.

But basically, do you mind if I move freely?

If you call me, I'll join the conversation, but I've actually seen and felt a lot.

Because I think it would be better if I told you about it as a new perspective.

"Um, I don't mind. I'll call you when I need you.

Takeo thus became a consultant.

Frederick left the room once.
