Rosespanner Workshop Rep: Rodion's Story

Alright... I'm going all in~ Come at me if you can!

Amidst the sounds of keyboards, flapping papers, and voices...

Sounded a song too cheery for an Office like this place.

Yes...! That's what I'm talking about~

The child looks thrilled and enthused, unlike everyone else whose brows are furrowed.

On her screen is an online casino game that is said to be pretty popular on the side of the Backstreets where the child's Office is.

The child seems to be deeply into this game lately.

Alright... I just need one good card...

Um, boss...

...Huh? I'm trying to focus here, can it wait a bit?

It can't wait. I need you to check this...

Could that be the child's subordinate? Speaking to the child with a rather grumpy voice, the employee held a stack of paper in their arms.

Bah, c'mon...

Here, I've got five days' worth of documents awaiting your approval. Read them quickly, and...

HERE IT IS!!!!!!

...The scream silenced the various noises that had filled the Office for a second.

I've got it, I've got the thing! Check this out, babe! Royal. Straight. Flush!

...What's that?

You wanna know? That's the sound of three months' salary for everyone here rolling into my account!

Aighty~ Listen up, everybody! I just...

No one in the Office pays attention to the child, but she goes on anyway.

...The employee next to her whose patience was reaching its limit also went on.

Boss! The work isn't going anywhere without your stamp on the papers! You need to work!

Yeesh, you're loud! Why are you like that~

The child finally turned to face the nagging employee.

Lemme see... Approvals? You know I approve 'em most of the time, don't you? I even gave you my stamp!

Still, there are procedures to...

Meh, what good are procedures in our teeny tiny workshop? We have to outsource everything 'cause we don't have the space for it!

And I gotta say... You think I'm not working? I'm the one who's bringing in the jobs, y'know~

...And those jobs are piling up on our desks.

That's not the rep's job to care~ Counting on my lovely staff, I am~

……

And also, I've never once had any of your salaries in arrears! Ain't I doing enough?

Still, if we go on like this...

Ope, it's time for outdoor work. Aight, make way for the boss~ I'm about to get some work done as you so pleaded!

Leaving behind the stunned employee, the child stormed out.

...People have different definitions of what makes a good leader.

To that employee, at least, the child must seem totally inept.

And yet…

Huzzah~!

The child was undoubtedly excellent at her "outdoor work".

Thanks to her superb ability to "tune up", her workshop has never been left wanting for work...

And her roguish magnetism made it that much easier to expand the workshop's customer base. She climbed to the seat of the representative because she was capable.

A diamond rolling on a mudhill is still a diamond, as they say.

Aight... That's a wrap for this one... Haah, I need jobs with better pay...

The child didn't want to care about the details, but she wanted her Office to grow nonetheless...

To that end, she kept searching and searching for leads on juicy jobs.

Perhaps the effort has paid off.

Oh? K Corp... A request from the Nest?

...Hunh, this one's a request for "scrapping", not tuning up... Hm, guess it's time for a bit of a workout~

It looks like the child has run into one hell of a job.
