The Other World Con Artist's Management Techniques

"It's quite a bustle, hasn't he.

Estella's expression of satisfaction comes from the loud voice she hears out of the window.

a week after a big eater

The city had changed drastically.

Specifically, traffic had nearly tripled.

"The three wards have been combined to construct the 42 wards of the town, and to construct the highways. It should be finished in three weeks."

"You're in a great hurry," Don't you have any trouble with the rush work?"

"It's all right. Shortening the term of construction is a work that can be done only because of the concentration of skilled techniques."

All the carpenters who helped build the venue for the big eatery, including the Torbeck factory, are mobilizing again.

At the top of such a carpenters' union is the Tolbeck Works.

Umaro has become the leader of carpenters all around here. However, it's limited to building a street gate and a highway.

"It's going to be a great gate. Anyway, it leads to the innermost part of the forest. We must make it quite robust."

"Even if the gate is terrible, I don't think this vigilante will be enough to defend you." Could you please arrange a story around Usse, and send some out of the Hunting Guild?"

"Hmm. I can't get around that."

"Huh?"

Somehow proudly, Estella pulls out a piece of parchment.

"We asked Medra and Javier to send a gatekeeper. Instead, it's a promise to study the introductory tax."

"Have you negotiated like that yet?"

Estella, which is usually left behind, is very well prepared.

"I am the lord,"

A little embarrassed... but Estella says with a clear-cut determination.

This has changed. from that moment on

The declaration of the lord after the fifth battle of the tournament made it clear.

"Don't you regret it?"

At that moment, many people found out that Estella was the lord.

Although there was no major panic, it would not be the same after that. It's inevitable that there's a change in the way people interact and see each other.

Can this guy stand the change?

"Huh. Well, I'm sure I said it like this, but I had to do this one day. I have no regrets."

"I see,"

"Well, some people complained about it after that."

"A complaint?"

"Oh, it was hard," Estella says with a wry smile.

"Norma, Delia, Paula, Neferry... Oh, and Milly also scolded me saying, 'Why didn't you say anything?'"

"Do you think I was fooled?"

"No,"

Shaking his head slightly, Estella laughed shyly.

"If you had told me earlier, I could have cooperated with you more..."

How happy would the words have been for Estella, who had been holding them all by herself?

I don't need to hear that he's showing a big grin.

"Jinnette was surprised, too."

"Well... I suppose,"

`I was surprised that Mr. Estella was the lord,'

"Is "Surprise Kokimaro" a lie!?"

Are you lying?

I didn't say that Jeanette was saying that."

It's an image.

It's fiction based on testimonies, isn't it?

"Loretta didn't seem to notice, either,"

"I've met him several times in the guise of acting lord,"

`I never noticed it! I'm surprised!'

"No, that's why!"

"Magda was surprised, too..."

"What? Is it popular in Yodamari-tei, 'Surprise Kokimaro!'?"

Well, it was the declaration of Estella's lord that shocked many people...

I was more concerned about what Estella's parents thought.

On that point, I asked Natalia before...

"The present lord... excuse me... the former lord is now away from this town because his illness has worsened." "We are expected to recuperate in a mild climate and quietly wait for our recovery."""

During the scorching heat season, if you don't leave town, you won't be able to serve as a lord. It seems that Estella remained the lord of the manor just because she was worried about Estella, but Estella's determination made him concentrate on full-scale medical treatment.

Natalia said, "If you don't pay attention to the ward government and concentrate on your medical treatment, you will recover before too late." It might be a good son to put you in a stress-free environment.

Therefore, this lord's residence also belonged to Estella, and even if a pimpy like me came and went as if he were his own, he would not complain.

I've always been quite positive about it, but there were a lot of things like checking at the gate.

I'm glad I got a face pass. It's really easy.

I don't know what about the lack of awareness of crime prevention... but a swindler's face is a pass by his face."

"Yes, the main street of 41 wards will remain as it is, and there will be restaurants and accommodations." We're going to let them continue to open stores in the 40th and 42nd wards, leaving some food courts behind."

"Then we must decide which shops to open there."

"Yes, we have another meeting."

Estella has been working hard lately.

However, they are no longer complaining as they used to be.

Natalia had said she was overcame with energy even though she couldn't show up at Yodamari-tei.

"Didn't you try too hard?"

"What?"

"Take care of the nukes. If you keep working hard, you'll suddenly get angry one day."

If you overstretch the thread or anything, it will be easier to break easily.

It is necessary to give some leeway.

"Yes, thank you," ...but now I feel like doing my best."

Estella's face shades.

Then, serious eyes look at me.

"I won't let you do that again,""That's the sort of thing" -- I mean, the mess after the tournament.

This incident focused on one point in the 41 wards where I became a villain and was about to split internally.

This guy seems to feel guilty about it.

"I couldn't bring the trouble under control of myself... I couldn't do it anyhow." ...I keenly realized my lack of ability. Oh, my God. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ."

Self-deprecation, anger, sadness... that color clouded Estella's expression.

"Yasilo, I promise. I won't let you do that again."

say the same thing again

"I'll never let you bear the burden again."

After I say it... I'll tear my mouth slightly.

"I'll be stronger," So I want you to cooperate again. It may sound contradictory, but I still want you to help me a lot. I'll continue to do so."

It's not decorative, it's not pretentious, but it's not open.

There was an honest smile there. a tender smile, not a smile

I'm just a little upset by the calm atmosphere, which is different from what I've always seen in Estella.

Estella has grown a little bigger than I thought people could change in such a short time.

That's what I feel like that.

This guy doesn't need me anymore.

There's nothing to teach you.

"There's a saying that the right person is in the right place."

That's why this guy should move on without thinking about me.

I'm sure that time has come.

"There's a sunny spot, and there's a shade just behind it."

If I'm alone in the mud and everything else goes well, that's the best way, isn't it?

Everyone is happy, what an ideal after all is... there are some "behind the scenes" who are working hard to keep that peace in a peaceful world.

"There is a necessary evil in the world. So I'm perfect for such a villain. So I don't really care...

"I don't like it,"

Estella interrupts me when I try to mislead him by talking lightly.

Then, with a serious expression that was beyond deception, he said plainly.

"I don't want you hurt,"

Put your hand to my chest and say the words in a clear voice as if you were making a speech. Keep your straight, straight, clear eyes at me.

"Because I like you,"

......what?

His face-to-face remarks made me unable to keep up with his thoughts for a moment.

I've ruminated in my head a few times... until I begin to think...

This is... what you call... a confession... or something like that?

"No, you know, Estella..."

"You are one of the most important people in the domain,"

"...what?"

Estella says with a proud, calm look.

"I am aiming to be a kind lord who loves his people."

...that's what?

"You misrepresented me... and you thought it was a deep meaning. Oh, my God!"

"Huh..."

She laughed briefly, and then Estella didn't speak.

...... Hey, what's that?

What's that meaningful smile?

What's this quiet air?

Like always, I'm embarrassed, I'm in denial, I'm in gag, I'm out of tune, I'm out of tune.

"When the street gate is completed, we'll have a grand unveiling ceremony, so come and see Jiro, too." for I am the first great stage to be a lord."

The unveiling ceremony...was completed in about three weeks?

The beginning of next month...

"Well, if you feel better,"

If I had been in this city until then...

"Well, I'll get you a special seat. I'll put beautiful girls with big breasts next to each other."

"I'll be glad to attend!"

Well, we must see the completion of the street gates and highways. That's why I've made a lot of efforts.

Will you stay until the unveiling ceremony?

"Is Imelda and Medra okay?"

"I'm sorry. I'm going to bed with a slight stomachache that day. I may not be able to attend."

Imelda, let alone Medra! Don't put that in the big milk category.

After that, I talked about revitalizing private exchanges with the 40th and 41st wards and strengthening cooperation in public works projects, and then I was told that the 3 wards agreed to build a closer relationship with each other, and I had a little chat…I left the lord's residence.

Natalia, who saw me off to the gate, said this with an unusually serious look.

"Mr. Estella has changed a lot. It's all thanks to Mr. Jiro."

With Estella becoming lord, Natalia no longer referred to Estella as a "daughter."

Why does the change make me feel a little lonely?

"I don't think so," You've bought too much."

"No. You're influencing people around you. I realize that thanks to Mr. Jiro, I was able to change things."

"How did it change?"

"When I met Mr. Jiro, who had always wanted to be faithful to my duties..."

Here Natalia rakes up her hair and wriggles herself into an "S" shape with the other little finger in her mouth.

"I've discovered myself as 'Oh to Na'."

"I'm really sorry. If it's my fault, I'll apologize, and will you come back to normal?"

I can't bear to blame him for his slapstick.

"I can't sleep unless you kiss me good morning."

"Well, you've been insomnia lately, I'm in trouble, and don't go to bed after a good morning kiss."

Natalia continues, returning to her dignified expression, which seems to be the head of the maid's.

... well, I still don't know which one is the real face.

"Mr. Estella has changed. and in a pretty good way."You're going to say it's because of me.

"I think what you said is what you really.

I just said... Oh, my God.

"I think you deserve a good impression, if you don't speak of love,"

"Don't praise me so much. I'm not used to being complimented, so I think I'm going to get upset."

I used to get hungry right after I had a little high‐class meal.

That's when I learned that you shouldn't do anything unfamiliar.

".........you pig!"

`Don't speak ill of me!'

That's extreme, as usual!?

"I never thought that someone could share a joke like this."

"I never imagined I'd get to know someone who'd come up with such a stupid joke."

Tired enough, I was about to leave when Natalia approached me one step further,

"I like you, too," ...as a man."

He gently stroked my hair.

With just that amount of movement, my mind was completely disturbed.

Shame, itching, and... chagrin all at once.

"Well, take care of yourself on your way home."

Natalia took two steps back and bowed her head deeply.

d*mn... I'll be back as maid-in-chief in an instant. You don't know how to react, do you?

"...well,"

Natalia smiled softly and bowed to meekly.

"Then I'll go to Mr. Estella and tell her, 'Pu-pu-pu-pu-pu-u-u-u-u-u-u-u-u-u-u-u-u-u-u-u-u-

"Don't do that! Don't do that! Don't fill the building with savage air!"

I'm not sure if this is a good or bad maid.

Say hello to Estella and I'm going home.

The road runs from the street gate on the west side of the 42 wards, past the church and the Yodamari-tei, intersecting with the main street, to the lord's residence. and connect them directly to the 41st and 40th wards.

In order to facilitate the flow of people and things, we decided to take a big road between the three wards.

It looks like it's going to develop all at once.

The 42nd Street Gate leads to the innermost part of the forest, and only a man of great confidence can use it.

On the other hand, even beginners can use the 41 wards relatively safely because the direction of the gates is different from that of the 42 wards. It's a level that even non-combat handsome men like me can use.

By dividing users according to their proficiency, the conflict of profits is eliminated.

Even so, the income from the 41 wards of the city will decrease, but even more so, as a middle town, the profit as a logistics center, and as a post town where the town gate users stay will increase.

Ricardo's 41st leg had no opposition to the 42nd leg of the city, as the economic effects of the cannibalism were clearly reflected in the figures.

On the contrary, they're sending more and more people just to get it done quickly. Naturally, it's the construction staff. Those in the 41st leg, whose average muscle mass is unnecessarily high, are suitable for manual labor.

Incidentally, the pair of hunting guilds who caused an insect attack in Cantaltica seem to be very enthusiastic about Paula and willing to participate in the construction of the city gate to attend Cantaltica.

They're like representatives of some Torbeck factory.

However, Paula seems to think that the number of regular customers has increased.

"Oh! Jiro!"

While I was thinking about it, I met a woman on the road under maintenance.

Good, through.

"Hey!? Wait a minute, Mr. Yashiro!"

He goes around in front of me as I pass by, and a woman hinders my way.

What? You should work.

hamsters working hard on the road

Apart from the command there, Umaro peeps into my face.

Don't look at me!

Only beautiful girls with explosive breasts can do that.

"Oira, I'll do my best!"

"Oh? Road construction? Oh, hang in there. Do your best to die, and do your best to die."

"Lastly, the meaning of the word is strange!? No, but Oira, I'll do my best!"

"So... what?"

"I'll do my best!"

「…………」

I'll look back into the eyes of the woman looking at me.

It was unnecessarily hot, and deep in my eyes were burning with flame.

"Oh, good luck."

"Yes!"

With a clear answer, Umaro returned to work.

"Now! I don't have time! I'll finish the road by the time the gate is completed!"

"'Yes!'"

I left the place listening to the lively hamsters.

If you go along the road under maintenance, you will see Yodamari-tei.

The road in front of the store has been widened and the atmosphere has changed a little.

The trees in the forest that you can see from the garden were originally rustic, but now it's strange because they look like 'fashionable shops with greenery.'

I opened the door and went into the Yangdang-tei????

"Welcome home, Mr. Jiro,"

Jeanette welcomes me with a smile.

"I'll make you some tea now." Oh, do you want coffee?"

"Then, coffee."

"Yes, sit there and wait a minute."

Turn around and dance to the kitchen.

Just before I entered the kitchen, I looked back????

"I'll make you some good coffee."

-You say such a thing.

I don't want to be alone anymore as much as I was before the tournament.

Rather, it has calmed down a little more than before.

I don't know what Jeanette felt or thought about the competition.

But there's only one thing I can clearly tell.

Jeanette has grown a bit bigger since she went through that competition. with certaintyThat's probably why it's almost there. The reason why Jeanette's wish comes true is that

It's hard for Yangdalitei to regain the bustle of its bustle.
