Someday Will I Be The Greatest Alchemist?-Chapter 506: Provide games and work increases
Chapter 506: Provide games and work increases
The sound of the cue stick hitting the targeted ball resounded in the spacious games room. In a different spot, you could hear a ping pong ball being rallied at a high tempo. Focusing elsewhere, there were quiet sounds of darts whizzing by.
Ron!
Ah, I also a hit.
Guhaa!
Strange. They should have been beginners, but Sophia and Marnie competing to be the top. And for some reason, I was competing with Jeeves for what is probably last place.
After I had explained how to play billiards, table tennis, and darts, as well as demonstrate it, Sophia, Marnie, and Jeeves played mahjong.
In the first half, I somehow managed to come out on top, but after that, Sophia and Marnie were terrifying. Was their insight that amazing? It didnt seem like they would pass at anything I throw, but to think a double
By the way, Jeeves was a complete newbie. He should probably learn to make a poker face more.
Our maids, the butlers, and my new clerks Charlotte Gina and Ana go to the games rom to relieve their stress from work. Even my neighbor, Princess Mimir, her attendants often used it.
And there were people who enjoyed it more than us.
Thomas!
Master! Leave it to me!
The person holding a table tennis paddle and firing orders was my acquaintance, the president of the Papeck Company, Papeck-san. The person paired with Papeck-san was the head clerk of the Papeck Company, Thomas-san.
The two enjoying a game of doubles in table tennis.
Their opponents were Princess Mimir and her attendant. They had purposely changed into an attire that was easy to move in.
Princess!
Leave it to me!
Princess Mimirs smash decided it, and Princess pair scored the point.
Papeck-san looked disappointed as he went to pick up the ping pong ball.
It was the same for bowling and soccer too, but it feels like everyone is getting more fired up than expected, perhaps because there wasnt any sports or play like them in this world.
Actually, this world doesnt even have board game-type games. I thought about making various board games while Im at it, but decided against this. Shogi, chess, go shouldnt be popularized wantonly. I heard these kinds of games train strategic thinking. If I do ever make any, I should choose wisely.
As I stacked the mahjong tiles, I thought about things to escape my current reality when I heard Papeck-sans voice while he was playing table tennis.
Iruma-sama, I would like to request several of these mahjong tiles and table set. Of course, Ill supplement the purchase price with the patent fee.
s-sure.
I really am a fool. I would have loved it if things calmed down even slightly even if I make something new
I had called Papeck-san to the Sanctuary to discuss the bowling related topics and the soroban with him. And he had noticed the newly built games room. And of course, he witnessed billiards, table tennis, darts, and mahjong.
The gazes from Charlotte and the other two at this time were painful.
Charlotte proposed hiring more people who can do clerical work.
I hurriedly asked Sebastian to find someone trustworthy. I asked for capable personnel through Moulin-san like I had with Charlotte and the others, but that couldnt be resolved immediately, so the three of them had to work hard for the time being.
And Papeck-san wasnt someone who would turn a blind eye to the seeds of profit upon seeing it without reason, so he cued the billiard balls and table. We received multiple orders for table tennis paddles, ping pong balls, the darts and its target the dart board, as well as the mahjong tiles and its dedicated table.
None of these have magic devices, so the entire manufacturing process would be handled by the workshop that the Papeck Company will establish, and I will receive royalties, just like with the soroban.
By the way, he obviously discovered the soccer stadium, but he had absolutely no interest in it.
After thinking about it, that was a given, there wasnt enough inside the city to build a soccer field, and even if there was, it wouldnt be used for that. That said, in a world where the threat of monsters lie outside the cities, it would be difficult to popularize sports like baseball or soccer.
Ah, Takumi-sama, thats a hit!
No way!
Umm, thats a mangan, isnt it?
Ha, haha, thats also a bust for me (hakoten).
This hanchan (half round) is my loss, it seems.
How strange. I remember being pretty strong back in my school days, but was that all a dream?
***
TLN The mahjong terms could be wrong, I am not really sure about it.
