Otome Game Mob Villain Chapter 249

At my request, Alex and the monkey people, Thomas and Tona, turn over with a resigned look on their faces, giving off a doldrums.

Hm ...... Was I indeed being too reckless? When I was thinking that, l, who was standing next to , muttered with a twinkle in her eye

'Hey, Nii-sama, can I touch it too?

'Ah, yes. Okay, please be careful not to break it."

'Yes, wow. ...... Thank you, Niisama.'

l smiles and looks at the pocket watch with interest.

Then Danae, who was standing next to her, asked .

'Master Rid, I think the miniaturisation of the watch is great, but why do you need the number so urgently?'

'Well, it's not that I need them urgently. But I want to give them to the Knights of Bardia and everyone else involved as soon as possible. I'm sure Diana will understand what that ans soon enough."

I answered Danae and shifted my gaze to Diana.

Danae also looked at her with a puzzled look.

Diana felt our gazes and made a dumbfounded face.

'...... ti each individual. Rather, in an organisation such as the Knights, if it can be known on a squad or group basis, the organisational capability will increase even more. It's absolutely, just the most terrifying thing that Master Rid can think of."

'Huh ...... I an, what does that an?'

Danae tilts her head as if she doesn't understand.

I chuckled and compared it to her job.

'Haha, to put it plainly, I think Danae also cleans the house. At that ti, you and the other maids would discuss in advance what ti it should be done, right? But you can do that because there is a clock in the house. Without clocks, you can't 'set the ti and work at the sa ti'.

Ah ...... I see. So you're saying that if we have a prearranged eting in any place and have a 'pocket watch', we can ti our actions ...... even if we're far away from each other?"

I nodded, smiling at Danae's words.

'Yes. This 'pocket watch' will help people in various tasks, so I want to give it to the people in positions of responsibility in the Bardia family as soon as possible. Also, since it can never leave the territory, I will be engraving the Bardia family crest on it as soon as I get my father's permission.'

Danae rolls her eyes in admiration, but Deanna remains dumbfounded.

Yes, we who have clocks in the mansion tend to take it for granted and forget about it, but 'being able to check the ti at any ti' is actually a great thing.

Especially in an organisation such as the Order, which works in squads and units, being able to check the ti is an even more important part of the organisation.

If the pocket watch reaches the hands of the captains and vice-captains who organise the knights' units, the organisational strength of the Knights of Bardia will be further strengthened.

Perhaps it will beco the best in the Empire? The pocket watch has that much potential.

I would like to think about wristwatches eventually, but I guess that will have to wait until later.

While talking with Danae and the others, Alex, who had been lying face down, looked up gravely and muttered.

'I've heard about that, so I've made it as resistant to impact as possible. But, as expected, fifty might be too much. To be honest, the chanism and blueprints have been finished, but the parts are still handmade, so ...... it will take two to three days at the earliest for each piece.'

'......Then it's for mass produced, or mass production, I guess you'd call it. How about sothing that you could build a whole production line on? The most expensive ones for the aristocracy should be handmade or made with precision, while the ones for the Knights of Bardia or for distribution should be simple and resistant to impact."

In response to my answer, Alex folded his arms and wrinkled his brow.

In fact, there is no need at all to make the Knights and the nobility the sa.

The pocket watches distributed to the Knights and the Bardia family mbers should be shockproof and be able to tell the ti.

At that mont, the fearful ape-man Tona muttered.

'The pocket watch I gave to that ...... Rid-sama was quite finely and elaborately made. But if it is for mass production, I don't think there is anything we can't do if we reduce the quality a little and mould the parts. The chanism itself has been completed. ......"

When Thomas finishes speaking, she looks at as if to say: "I also have a lot of mass-production-specific parts and parts for mass-production.

"I think there is still a lot of room for ...... improvent if we study the parts and production thods for the mass-production model."

The two of them unintentionally blushed with embarrassnt as their murmurings attracted everyone's attention.

At their words, Alex snorted for a mont and then muttered.

'Hmmm. In case you're wondering, it's only the beginning of the month, I think we can manage .......'

'Well, fifty is just a 'target'. If you make as many as you can, that's all right. Besides, I'd rather everyone set their sights high, because if you set too low a goal, you'll be satisfied and stop there than if you set a goal that's too high and you don't achieve it."

Alex huffed and chuckled and muttered.

'Haha, ...... I understand. I'll try to think of various ways I can do this, with a target of fifty by the end of the month. Besides, it's more fun to think of ways to do it than to look for reasons why you can't.'

'Thank you. But don't overdo it. There are a lot of people here, so take turns or sothing, and get so rest, okay? They are all very important to us, including you here."

'Yes. Taking care of your health is also part of the job. We'll adjust and work on that."

Thus, Alex and all the apes will work together to create a new mass-produced model of the Pocket Watch.

Then, when the conversation between and Alex and the others ca to a close, Ellen intentionally cleared her throat to get everyone's attention.

Master Rid, have you had any more discussions with Alex?"

'Yes, ...... I do. If I have any more discussions, I will discuss them with you on a case-by-case basis.'

Ellen nodded and smiled nimbly.

'Now it's ti to unveil our piece of work, the charcoal truck. Now, let show you to the private warehouse outside.'

'Alright. Shall we go then?'

'Yes!'

After l cheerfully replied to my call, we left the guest room of the workshop and went to the 'warehouse' that Ellen was leading us to.
