　Ortomba was ordered to manufacture and improve the gun.

　Then you would have known right away which person has the talent.

　--That's the wrong order. This is giving you the approval you deserve for having demonstrated what you have earned. Even if you had been a High King by profession, you would have gained nothing in the way of additional abilities if you had lived by doing nothing.

　And the third person of the day.

　But then the eyes of Jahnhahn Grantrix, who didn't seem to know where he was looking, opened wide.

I don't mean that. I am serious. Tea gives me more time to calm down and face myself.
