Chef and Takeo were about to leave the construction site behind.
"Lord?"
Victor was coming to the scene with the papers.
"Victor. Are we going to have a meeting?
"Yes.
This is a meeting on the third floor.
Is it the coffee shop that the Lord... is with the head chef?
"Yeah.
We were talking about what we were going to do.
Well, I'm just saying what I came up with because I'm leaving it to the chef.
"The Lord wonders if that's okay.
Okay. I'm going to a meeting.
"Yeah. I'll take care of it... Victor. You don't mind if my room is small, do you?
"Let's do good.
Have you met the carpenter's parents?
"No? I haven't seen him?
"Really?
See you when you get a chance.
"Yes. Okay.
Here. Please hold a good meeting.
"Yes. I'm in awe.
Bye. "
Takeo nodded and dropped Victor off.
"So? Takeo. Was that a good idea?
"Which is it?
I'll leave the personnel to you, and you're thinking about the menu, right?
And then I'll do the dishes and the desks, but I don't know, so I'll take care of it.
"Not that way. Parents.
I didn't seem to know Takeo's face.
"I'm a newbie. I guess I don't know.
It's not a particular problem. I'll see you at the opening ceremony anyway.
"... I suppose you usually have to know the faces of nobles in the same city, don't you?
"Is that what it is?
"That's what it is.
Not everyone, even old people and children, will say, but store owners and union leaders executives will have to know.
It's not nice that my parents working on the Kitamizato family building don't know Takeo's face.
Right... for example... if you argued and raised your hands among children all over the city because you don't know the faces and names of your children in Your Highness's realm...
That's a sin, but not a sin you didn't teach. It is a sin not to know His Highness's son.
"This is another polarity, isn't it?
Takeo is frightened.
"Ha... Takeo. Basically, the kingdom of Azpar is loose around there.
It's not that it's not loose.
This is a rather small way of thinking. If you don't know by now, you're gonna get hurt, okay?
"Is that what it is?
"That's what it is.
In the continuation of the example, it becomes different whether it was bad for His Highness to take his eyes off the children in His Highness's realm.
His Highness only freed the children in his own territory.
The people of the Territory should be watching. And we should protect it with the people of our territory.
Yet I can rub it... and I have the idea that I can't help but be taken for not fulfilling my duty as a resident as a cause of it.
"Then... it is the duty of the people to allow the lord to dance to me?
"Right.
That's why lords are obliged to protect their territories, protect their ministers and protect the lives of their inhabitants for their privileges.
There can be taxes on top of that flow.
I live in this Elvis territory, Count Elvis or Miss Alice. There are no superiors who don't know Master Smith's face.
That can even reach Lady Leila or Lady Jesse.
Sometimes they are loved by the inhabitants, but it is also a sin not to know the face of the relatives of the previous lords.
"The duty to protect the Lords family and the duty to protect the Lords.
What a strange relationship.
"Well, in fact, we all owe it to the family to be kind to our hearts and minds, and the Elvis family is obliged to bet everything they can to protect the smiles and lives of their inhabitants.
It would be Elvis territory that is gentle on both sides.
"Previously, His Majesty told us that a noble system is a military system and a tax payment that is obligated to defend or provide power, instead of being granted control of the region by the King?
"That's a relationship between your majesty and your lord.
What I'm talking about is a relationship between lords and inhabitants.
"Mm-hmm..."
"The Elvis family doesn't care what they say, and they teach it's normal for anyone to be pissed off if they do bad.
"I take it for granted.
"That's what some lords say.
The Lords are absolute, so let the Lords speak...
"Oh, my God. Well...
Aren't those guys in the demon kingdom?
"The lords don't have it.
However, there is a bit of luxury in the territory.
The merchants are also generous to the Lord of their own dominion.
"... that there is a sense of electorate among the merchants?
Takeo narrows his eyes.
"The fact is, I didn't know there were people who were supporting other workshops and other stores in terms of funding and getting in return.
Such a person would appear to be in the same position as a lord from those who support him.
"... Hmm.
Takeo thinks.
"What do we do? Takeo."
"Thank you very much.
That financial assistance is equivalent to what I'm doing.
I can't tell you anything about them.
Well, if you want to interrupt what I want, I'll deal with them... but they're not even likely to be there yet.
"If I had been there, the territory would be booming.
"I can't deny it.
But... I don't direct financial assistance (...), but are they making it obvious?
"I wonder.
But it's... it's an amateur idea to think there's no reward for yourself if you don't let the others know.
Actually, what do you think?
"... if you were to put on the table what you support in order to be self-satisfied and proud of the prosperity of your faction, you would leave it alone.
"It's easier to monitor, but I hope it doesn't grow.
"Good luck there to the civilians.
I guess it's more out of hand to be turning the funds around in the back.
"You're headed by Takeo.
"Hmm?... you're out of your mind.
I only give financial aid to the Elvis family.
That's not what the Elvis family found out about spending that money on.
You just have to have this city at the Elvis family.
You don't need a new mentor there.
"... to the habit of having a lot of hands.
"I'm just getting a penny.
If I save a penny, I'll focus on something different, and I won't be able to keep it at all.
Besides, all financial support to the stores (...) would be the Elvis family (...)? (...).
It is the Elvis family that unites the people in this city.
I wish I could give you a little bit of a tip in terms of knowledge and make what I want.
"And cooking?
"Yeah. And the food.
Chef, please make your announcement with Mr. Frederick and Mr. Elvis as soon as possible.
If we keep this up, only our coffee shop will be able to serve it, right?
"Wait a little longer.
I'm very busy at the coffee shop right now.
At least I can't do anything until Takeo and Miss Alice's ceremony.
"... true. If we don't hurry up, we'll be next, right?
"Right... that's a chicken farm..."
The chef made me look tired.
