177 Episode 172 First Report.

"Oh... you have a surprisingly pleasant feel.

Takeo was nodding when he saw the caramel he was cooling with ice.

I'll try a few pieces, but they taste good too.

I think I can get this out to everyone.

"Oh? Is that Takeo if you think he's someone? What happened so early?

"Good morning, Chef.

Because I was worried about caramel.

"Morning. So, what do you say?

The chef asks excitedly.

Takeo hands over a piece without saying anything.

The chef who was given the caramel often looks at it and puts it in his mouth.

"It tastes like milk and it's delicious.... oh, it's softening.

I see... hard at first, but gradually soft... oh, this is interesting.

"Will it please you all?

"Oh, I think this is good, huh?

But... you want this delicious candy for a servant? You're not letting them out to customers?

"You can serve it to the customers, but the basics are made for everyone here, so that's your priority.

"Well... well, if Takeo says so, will he?

"Yeah, I'll tell the sweets guy later.

"Whoa, don't ask me.

Takeo broke up with the chef, and when he plugged in front of the guest room to go back to the study...

"Gone, Gone, Gone... Gone, Gone, Gone... Gone, Gone.

One o'clock section bell... isn't it?

Takeo wondered.

Ever since I got here, I've remembered the Times as having two bells.

Whether it was a 3 o'clock or 6 o'clock bell was identified by the position of the sun.

And now I've been ringing it three times...

and

Frederick just came out of the guest room.

"Oh? Good morning, Master Takeo.

"Good morning, Mr. Frederick.

The number of bells is different than usual?

"Yes, this is an emergency bell.

Although Takeo stops moving for a moment in Frederick's words.

"... Mr. Leila and Miss Alice are awake.

"Okay. Please wake the other two up and take them to the hall.

"Yes."

Takeo was on his way to the study on a fast foot.

------------------------

Takeo knocks on the study and hears a "go ahead" reply from inside and goes inside.

Inside were Alice, Leila, King Azpar, and William.

"I'm back. Good morning, Alan, William.

"Mm-hmm. Good morning, Takeo.

"Good morning, Mr. Takeo.

King Azpar and William greet each other.

"And, Miss Alice.

"Yes. It's an emergency, isn't it?

"Yeah. I'll explain the details in the hall, so I was told to bring you all in.

"Um. So, do we move?

Everyone moves into the hall to the words of King Azpar.

Takeo knocks on the hall door.

From the inside, I said, "Go ahead. Confirm that the permit is dropped and open the door and enter the room.

Inside were Grandpa Elvis and Smith Boy, Frederick.

"Good morning, Mr. Elvis, Smith boy.

I've brought you all.

"Uhm."

and King Azpar, William, Leila and Alice enter the room.

"Good morning, Count Elvis.

"Yes, good morning.

In William... and Leila. Good morning.

"Yes, good morning.

"Good morning, Grandpa.

"Good morning, Grandpa, Smith.

"Um, Alice, good morning.

"Good morning.

and when everyone takes their seats.

Frederick serves tea to everyone.

"Count, what's the emergency?

"Yes, but now I'm waiting for the second report.

Details will be given after receiving that report.

"Um, okay.

And, hearing the words of King Azpar, Takeo takes his seat.

"Hmm? Takeo, what's wrong?

"No, if the explanation is still ahead, I thought I'd make it for breakfast too.

Is that supposed to be an explanation while you're still grabbing breakfast?

"Um... yeah.

Takeo, I'm sorry to bother you.

"You'll already have a chef, but I'm going to help.

How many will you bring?

"Well... for 13 or 14, please.

Because Harold and the others will be here.

"Okay.

And, Takeo leaves the hall.

"... don't take Takeo personally.

Though King Azpar crushes such a soliloquy.

"Your Majesty, perhaps not.

Alice responds.

"Oh? Alice, you don't think so?

"Yes. Maybe Master Takeo is nervous.

It's softening.

"Um, yeah. I guess you want to do something because you can't calm down.

"Hmm... is that right?

Don't Takeo have any real-life experience? I heard Alice and I had a mock fight.

"I guess not. He said it was the first time he had fought here.

I guess the place where Takeo was was was basically where he received no threat from anything.

"Mm-hmm. Otherwise, I don't think that's how much food will come into being.

Because it's peaceful, so I can use my time for cooking.

"Yes.

Besides, I think it's peace that allows us to see war objectively.

Because Takeo's explanation gives the impression that he sees the battlefield from above.

"Hmm? Really?

King Azpar shares his thoughts on Alice's explanation.

"Yes. In the chat... among the descriptions of the small guns, Master Takeo explained the mood on both sides of the faction.

Perhaps in those who live as close to war as we do, the explanation will be skewed in one way or another.

"I see.

I'd like to ask Takeo what he thinks later.

"Okay.

That's what Grandpa Elvis replied to King Azpur.
