Beginning last winter.

Some of the walls of the fortified city of Fort Lace have been damaged due to the unprecedented impact of heavy snow. The restoration was followed by a decision to increase the number of cities that had been previously considered. As escorts for the materials and craftsmen brought in, the mercenaries scattered throughout the country went to the fortified cities one after the other.

Immediately thereafter, there is a massive outbreak of insect-based demons in Agricult, a neighboring agricultural country. At this time, the royal family asked for a crusade. Of course, many mercenaries who finished their work at Fortrace moved to Agricult for a reward from the royal family.

Then coincidentally, the period when the monster hunt in Agricult began to settle down and the festival of the neighbouring commercial state Handel overlapped. When it comes to the Handel festival, the big selling city is famous.

Most of the mercenary regiments moved to Handel in search of weapons, exhumation props, etc. because they are warming their nostalgia at Fortrace and Agricult's request, and because they are near the corner.

And I enjoyed the one-stitch festival and I just missed my nostalgia, and it seems that several groups of mercenaries were escorted home by a jeweler from Edelstein. Around that time again, Marnagarm was in the forest of the abyss in Majesta. The one you slashed.

The rumor ran out of money at the festival and reached the ears of the mercenaries who remained at Handel. Mercenaries began moving when merchants and nobles heard rumors of the Demon King were supposed to reinforce their escorts.

And as the mercenaries read, there were more requests for escorts around the Majesta. Few large merchants and aristocrats apparently signed annual contracts with mercenary regiments as well as individuals.

Among other things, the announcement of retirement of the fiery spear brave and Master Celery Sorcery and field training around the border that Edel's Marquis son was informally conducting. Then I think it's probably about Princess Claire, but there seemed to be rumors among the mercenaries that Prince Edel's king was moving there.

So, there were rumors that maybe there would be some skirmishes soon, even if we didn't have to go to war around Majesta Country.

If it's war, it's mercenaries' business. They finally rejoiced and braved to return to the main business, relocating their strongholds near Majesta and Edelstein and calling in their people.

In fact, there is also one case of Marnagarm in and around Majesta, with many nobles and merchants working to strengthen escorts and private soldiers. Near the Abyss Forest, they have also increased requests to crusade demons, making good living for mercenaries.

As for Opis, I didn't even know if it was true or false. Sure, there seems to be a lot of sightings, but where the mercenaries gather, there will always be rumors of Opis.

I was in the same squad as Serejeira, so I couldn't confirm it during Wang Du Security's internship. You can't put her in danger.

If you're willing to go on a patrol and find out what's going on with the mercenaries, ask Waldo.

His father was a former mercenary, and now he runs an inn in Wang Du. I've heard from Waldo that many of those guys are coming to stay for a long time because of my father's connection.

If there's another handover, fine, but if there isn't, it'll be a good catch.

Waldo is obsessed with you these days, so use it well. Waldo's thoughts are alley in the Warrior family itself, but sword arms and sexual roots are guaranteed. I'm sure it will help you.

That's all I got in front of His Majesty.

Work with all your energy, including what you've had.

- Even if they don't say so, I intend to.

In the morning, I remember the information from Lute, who knocked Waldo over and got it, and I think so.

The contents of the bag I got from Waldo were two books.

One is "The Great War Journal" and the other is an entertainment novel I've borrowed from Claire.

There was a fine work on the cover of the entertainment novel, and a letter came from inside. Perhaps even if the knight seemed to blame him, he made sure he didn't know at first sight. He is a carefree man.

I was also surprised that it had a more detailed history than I imagined, but honestly it was surprising that Lute was so cooperative. Plus, Waldo's information on anticipating my actions.

I got a little anxious after being too kind, but I was relieved by the last two lines that were written. That is the Lute.

I felt that Waldo was being treated slightly worse, but I could see Lute's trust in Waldo per person I chose to keep.

Waldo's good arm and good sexual roots make him a warrior and I'm comfortable with it.

Believe Lute, it's not a bad idea to have Waldo introduce you to mercenaries. Mercenaries live with information. It's hard to get information from them like that.

Waldo at the time is currently getting along with his own bed because of me, but I asked Nadi and Leone to treat him, so he can be back by noon.

Listen to me while I have lunch, and if you think you can go, you can go on a patrol, and if you can't, you can get out at dinner time.

Fortunately, students are given free time between the time of patrol and the time the lights go out.

Based on the information obtained from the lute, I will dip the feather pen in the ink and fill in the blanks in the paperwork as I think about my upcoming plans.

It's not a big deal when it comes to documents. Count the number of consumables such as paper and feather pens you are currently using, and fill in the number of pieces you consumed. It is just miscellaneous to calculate the purchase amount and the amount spent on consumables.

But this chore, it's a simple task, but not half the number. Calculating the consumption and cost of all consumables, starting with grinding wheels and polishing oil used to care for weapons, and used jointly in household items and stationery and the Knights' buildings and quarters, is a medium bone break.

Monotonic work but annoying.

On top of that, the majority of humans who come to the Knights are not brainy, but fleshy. Many people don't like calculations.

If so, it is only natural for the bowl to come around to students in training.

That's why we're in the management room on the corner of the quarters right now.

There are joint supplies and consumables in the control room that will be used in the quarters, and our morning work will be finished once we count the consumables here, complete the paperwork, and submit them.

There are two freshmen indoors with the Ballads squaring with me. Then there's Waldo's crew teaching us how to do chores, splitting them up and counting the number of consumables.

By the way, Waldo's squad is headed by Waldo. Rita and Pulha, three freshmen.

Waldo is currently absent, but there is no problem if he is still on these chores or not for the afternoon patrol. Unlike the patrol, no knights follow you for chores, so if you wake me up before noon, Waldo's absence won't even be exposed.

"Twenty boxes and sixty-four sheets of paper."

"There were thirty-five feather pens."

"Thirty more inks, sir."

"There are ten boxes and thirty-seven charcoals left to write"

"Five bundles and eighteen planks."

"There are hundreds of boxes of charcoal to burn"

"Thirty boxes and forty-one candles."

Copy that.

Ask for the amount of consumables left in the room and fill in the number of pieces in the document at hand. Then, the remaining amount is deducted from the original number and consumed, and the purchase cost is applied.

It's not a big amount, so this much is enough for calculation.

While Ballad and Rita were returning what they had counted, I filled in all the paperwork items. I can help them, but I'd rather finish the paperwork now than waste my time.

"Steady, you spent quite a bit of time just finishing counting"

"It's a dormitory today, so it's better still. There's a lot more detail at HQ."

"... the Knights aren't just patrols and security, are they?"

"I thought it was all about workouts and all that. I'm not good at calculations or anything."

Jeff and Rita, the freshmen in my squad are having that conversation.

They all have Warrior or Warrior aspirations when they look fed up.

By the way, all the freshmen working with Pulha, Balado, Solcier and Rita aspire to magic. Is this one so irresistible to these chores, I'm laughing bitterly, but I'm not stopping to look at the Jeffs.

It is a very easy diagram to understand.

"Dear Doyle. I'll do the paperwork, Mr. Ballad and I."

I can't believe that Waldo and his team are the ones who are going to take over from us. If you think someone's doing something wrong, Lutze comes by to get the paperwork out of my hand.

Balado, who was out in Luce and in public, the son of a merchant, was good at these documents, so I guess he cared.

"I don't need it because it's already over"

"! It is, it is. Dear Boulder Doyle, I'm very sorry for your loss."

"Huh. Are you done yet?

But if you say no because all the items of paperwork on hand are filled, Lutze slightly opens his eyes. And he peered into my hand and raised an exclamation.

I heard Jeff at the same time, so I looked in the room and everyone was looking at me.

"... what do you guys think I am?

"No, but, Master Doyle, you only have paper, a feather pen and ink."

"Calculations that do not exceed three digits are sufficient"

"Seriously."

"... wouldn't be so surprised"

I get the look of Jeff being incredible in my words. I returned that unexpectedly with a flashy look to the look on their faces with Jeff at the head more or less surprised.

Money in this world consists of copper coins, silver coins, gold coins and white gold coins. On top of that, the simplicity of being equal to one silver coin for a hundred copper coins and one gold coin for a hundred silver coins.

Because the money is for coins only, the amount of goods is also a good number that is easy to calculate. On top of that, consumables are cheap, so it is basically sold in roughly ten or hundred units.

If it's a (large) candle, a box of 100 bottles is two silver coins. I mean, one candle is two copper coins. Since the original is fifty boxes, the consumption is nineteen boxes and fifty-nine bottles. The amount of candles consumed will be thirty-nine silver coins and eighteen copper coins.

In other words, the calculation will never exceed three digits unless you buy so much stuff, and it won't be a very fine value.

If so, most columns are sufficient for calculation, and even when the total amount is given, one sheet of paper for calculation is sufficient.

"The paperwork on this hand was scattered before it went up to the middle."

"No, no, Master Doyle. I don't usually do calculations like this. You don't have to do this."

"Doesn't that mean you don't have to do it? Whatever the population, it costs money just to manage, and the cost given is limited. If we use it efficiently, we'll do this kind of calculation, right?

"No, I didn't"

If you state to Jeff that you don't need to do it all you want, he can give you a troubled look.

"Dear Doyle. Normally enough to worry about the combination of the reserves and the contents of the wallet. Unless you have a fine-grained personality for extra money, we will not calculate in the average household, such as how much you spent in a month. Calculating the consumption of these consumables would be about the owners or nobles of merchants and shops, royal castles and knights. And these chores are the work of my men. First of all, I won't do it in Master Doyle's shoes. To be honest with you, I am very surprised that Master Doyle did not receive an explanation anyway, and naturally filled all the columns. There's no sooner, no sooner, no sooner, no sooner, no sooner, no sooner, than I'm from a merchant."

"... I know what you're talking about. But the money of our nobility is the money given to us by the people. Don't let things get too stuck and your men feel ill or morale down, but it's not good money to spend as much as you have. It's our job to manage if it's not being used unfairly. And yet, after looking at these documents, we don't know the right or wrong calculations, and so on, so we're talking, right?

To Luce for explaining what Jeff wanted to say, if you return that, my words. The indoors quiet back to the border.

And for some reason, he was staring at me with tears.

I do do do very little arithmetic in school classes, so I have little chance of showing my computational skills.

Especially the Warrior Department. Not at all. Perhaps few people can calculate calculations that exceed three digits. I don't even have to.

And I know what Lutze said.

I haven't had a chance to do this kind of chore in my position, and I won't have a chance to do it again. But there's nothing you can't do because you don't get a chance to.

I am a sea bream even if I rot. This degree of paperwork is done at an early age as part of successor education. When you're in a position to lead the army, you don't seem to know.

And most importantly, in my previous life, I didn't get stuck with this level of calculation until college.

So not to be so surprised, but everyone didn't seem to take it that way.

One year with the title turned a caged eye of respect and said, "Good luck to you, too! He says," and Lutze and the others nod at each other satisfactorily. Rita and Pulha also had expressions that impressed them.

Stuck in some very uncomfortable gaze.

There was also the guilt of being deceiving them, and if he accidentally asked Balad for help, he was traveling somewhere by accident.

Clear your ears and say, "The God of Knowledge is also smart like Kakaya. Plus, I'm never proud of you, Master Doyle, who thinks of the people and soldiers... it's nice" or something. When do you think it's quiet?

"... In the meantime, let's clear the room and go submit this paperwork"

"" "" "" Yes!

I tell the pleasant Ballad that I can't do this for a while, and I'm going to let him go.

If you speak poorly to Balad here, you're going into runaway time at once. Because I already know Rita and the others in the same grade, but I'm sorry in front of the freshmen.

He's a little guilty of deceiving me, but he respects me in a nice corner. It is not unusual to have the image of a strange subordinate.

It's not a misunderstanding, and let them stay under a good impression. Hooray if they even rumor with the other freshmen.

Having concluded that, I nod to the freshmen who replied well, and then glance at the Lutze and the others.

Then, looking at Luce and the others who had just begun to prepare to leave the room, he dropped his eyes on the bundle of paper in hand to see if the documents were defective.
