Chapter 413
"And Capella, who was Zack's subordinate, is in charge of the "Special Forces . I must say, Master Rid has a lot of guts to make this kind of personnel move."
He said he had a rotten relationship with Zack.
In other words, in addition to the fact that he is the head of the Renalute's dark side, he probably knows very well what kind of person he is.
I dared to narrow my eyes and nodded.
"I'll take that as a compliment. And Capella is indispensable now."
"Oh, dear. You are a pioneer, but you also seem to be very good at getting into people's hearts."
Curtis cowered his shoulders and smiled, then shifted his attention to Capella and turned the conversation.
"By the way, Capella. I would like to introduce Curtis and the other members of the Second Order "
"What are everyone's plans? All of the squads are already out on duty today, and all of them have busy schedules for tomorrow and thereafter, so why don't we gather the captains first? The duties assigned to the squad itself should not be a problem if the vice captain is present."
"I see,"
The second order's ground troops are mainly contracted for general public works such as road maintenance from civil engineering in the Bardia territory.
The paperwork that Capella and Diana do on my behalf is the requests for public works projects that come in from the territory's residents.
The main work they do on my behalf is to check the reports on the accomplishment of their duties.
Among them, those that have a particularly high priority or are recognized as having caused a major problem come to me.
In the meantime, I've made it possible for simple documents to be cleared by Fara.
Therefore, the daily office work is occupied with me and Farah processing documents one after another.
Naturally, the fact that we are busy means that the members of the Second Order who are working on site are even busier than we are.
Once the various problems are settled, we will have to think about increasing the number of the Second Knights in the near future.
"I understand. Then, please make the arrangements."
"I understand. I will have the captains of the various units gather at the training area of the accommodation tomorrow morning."
"Okay. Thank you."
I thanked Capella for bailing and returned my gaze to Curtis and the others.
"I'm sorry. It will be tomorrow before I can introduce everyone."
"Don't worry about it. We arrived today. Let's look forward to meeting the Second Order tomorrow."
Curtis laughed out loud as he said this.
After enjoying a short chat and laughter, we left the office of the inn and returned to the mansion.
Then, I showed them to the guest room.
â—‡
The next day, I visited the training area of the accommodation in the morning with Curtis and the others.
Of course, it was to introduce all the members of the Second Order to him, as they had done yesterday.
Deanna, Capella, Fara, and Asuna were also present.
Mel had also wanted to be present, but her time conflicted with other lessons, so she was unable to do so.
Mel was looking away from us with puffed out cheeks because of that.
There was still some time before the appointed meeting time.
Curtis rubbed his chin in satisfaction.
"No . Still, I didn't think Bardia could offer rice, miso soup, and a breakfast as good as Renalute's."
"I'm glad you were pleased."
The next, Stein and Raymond muttered with deep emotion as they nodded with smiles on their faces.
"Grandfather, I was surprised at the breakfast that was no different from back home, but I was still shocked by yesterday's dinner. Starting with sashimi, which is fresh fish eaten raw, I had never seen anything like it. I wish I could reproduce those tastes in Renalute".
"You are right, brother. Once people get to know that taste, it is human nature to want to eat it again. In a sense, it may be a magical taste that makes people fall in love with it."
"Haha ......"
As I smiled and passed on their words, Fara and Asuna smiled happily.
"We were able to settle into Bardia quickly because of that. Right, Asuna?"
"Yes, it's just as the Princess said. I have heard that when the land changes, people often have trouble with the food culture. However, thanks to Master Rid's consideration, we are no different from Renalute,...... but our enjoyment of food may be even greater than in our home country."
"Oh . I didn't think that even Asuna, who had said that anything is fine as long as you can eat it, would say that. I imagine Ortlos and Gerbera would be surprised to hear that."
When Curtis saw the passionate expressions on the girls' faces, he lowered the corners of his eyes and began to laugh, as if he were happy.
As a matter of fact, as Stein and Raymond mentioned, we've received quite a few inquiries from people who want to recreate the meals we serve at Bardia and want to learn how to make them.
But there are a lot of people with evil intentions, so we basically turn them down.
By the way, the "sashimi" that Stein mentioned refers to sea fish, which I am familiar with from my previous life.
The Magnolia Empire also has a territory facing the sea, and the relationship between the lord of that territory and the Imperial Capital was established at a social gathering in the Imperial Capital, which increased the number of sales channels.
Well, I did ask my father for a favor and halfway forced him to do it.
But when I offered to do business with them after offering to build a road leading to Bardia, they were very happy.
Of course, it was difficult to bring in fresh sea fish with just road maintenance and a charcoal truck.
That's where the ice magic comes in.
When I asked Ovelia and the others to help, at first they complained, but after they tasted the fresh sashimi, their reaction was the complete opposite.
Now, many of the children who can use ice magic want to take the initiative and help stock the sea fish.
Of course, the Christie Trading Company does the purchasing on their behalf.
Although Barsto, located north of Bardia, is closer in terms of distance, it is more expensive, and it is risky for non-humans such as elves and beastmen like Chris to go in and out.
After all, Barsto is a country that recognizes non-human slaves.
Besides, it is easier to negotiate prices and consult with nobles from the same empire.
"Master Rid. It seems everyone has arrived."
"Yes? Ah, it's true."
In response to Capella's voice, I looked in the direction of the dormitory and saw the children of the Beastmen tribe, with Sheryl of the Werewolf tribe in the lead, coming this way in a friendly manner.
