Otoko Nara Ikkokuichijou no Aruji o Mezasa Nakya, ne?

Year 7447, Month 1, Day 21

Following the last time we entered the dungeon I'm still developing guns in the plaza on the 8th floor as usual.

Crushing the small problems and making small improvements to be tested during the next time we enter the dungeon.

If there's no problem at that time then I think we'll try using it in the halls and room bosses.

If that goes well then the next time after that I intend on finally going to the 9th floor and trying to fire the net gun against the group of Minotaur. If it's effective against trolls and the such then it should be fine to expect it to be useful against the mino.

And, putting aside the dungeon which has been going somewhat smooth(though it's not completely smooth), as a matter of fact right now Miduchi and I are on way towards the capital.

While we were in the dungeon this time there was a reply from Marquis Dasurain that he wanted to meet and talk with me as soon as possible. The meeting place is the Department of the Royal House area inside of the government office in the capital. I could have sworn that even if other places were different the department of the royal house(has the role of acting as secretary to the King and manages the royal court and such) and the department of castle forces(deals with military affairs) would be located inside of the royal castle.

Even the imperial household agency of Japan is located in the imperial palace right. Well, when I tried asking about it later, not just both of the departments, but the other departments also have an area in the castle as well but the castle itself is nothing more than the location of the organization and something like the headquarters are all packed into an area of the government office building.

And, if the King has business with the minister, politician, or bureaucrat or whatever and wants to talk with them he calls them all the way from the government office to the castle. This, the higher your position is wouldn't it just become that much more troublesome getting called out by the King all the time? It would have been fine if the royal castle was at least right next door to the government office.

Of course, even I understand that it would be unpleasant to have a ton of politicians(or you could call them high rank nobles) and officials coming to work in the royal castle which also acts as the house of the royal family everyday, so I can understand the reason for splitting them up.

But, even then I have to wonder about how it's over 1 km in distance away. I'll have to make sure I don't make the same mistake. I wrote it down in the notes of my heart.

Since we're meeting a minister, Miduchi and I are wearing high class clothes like the ones on the days of judgement.

They open in the front resembling kimono from our past life. Though even if I say kimono there's no difference in the sleeves for men and women. Also, there's no hakama on Orth so I can't help but feel like it's off with the appearance. In exchange we're wearing somewhat comfortable pants and the same combat boots as usual. Incidentally, I don't have any official position and I'm a low ranking noble so the color of my obi is deep green. Miduchi's is a vivid pink color.

First off we stopped by Sandak company which was acting as the intermediary and greeted the company president before going to the department of the royal house together with him. After coming to one of the government office buildings that was assigned to the department of the royal house and the company president conveyed to the squire or knight from the third knight group that was acting as gatekeeper about our appointment with Marquis Dasurain. However, we had a chat about the buildings around here and recent affairs with a different knight from the one that went inside for about 15 minutes while waiting so we weren't bored.

After that we were let through into a reception room like place. After sitting down on the sofa and sipping at the tea we were given I heard a shouting voice saying, "Hn? The room of Makkaze? I said to take them to the room of Kamukura right!". Miduchi and I exchanged glances. How noisy right.

"He's on his way."

The company president of Sandak company who's wearing the same green-type obi as me said.

So that voice was him huh?

And then, a single old man entered the room. It was a skinny old man a sharp glare. He has a gray reverse triangle beard growing from his chin and his slightly long and plentiful hair of the same color for his age was carefully combed towards the back of his head. You can tell from a glance that what he's wearing is high quality and while it has a similar design to the kimono Miduchi and I were wearing but I'm sure it cost several times more. The color of his obi is..wow, red. It sure is different when it comes to a minister and Marquis.

Ah, the King's is purple, the queens, princes, and dukes are blue. If my father were to "formally" have an audience then his would be black. Marquis Webdos is yellow and the commander of the first knight group, Baron Logan is red. When it comes to company commander level I think it would be white or so? The color of these obi displays they're nobles and even among them are graded by ranking to some extent. No matter how important they are commoners and free people can't use any colors except brown, light blue colors, or otherwise pink and different colors like Miduchi.

This old man must be Marquis Dasurain.

"Your excellency Marquis, thank you for the other day. And then, these two over here are the ones.."
