Isekai Office Worker: The Other World's Books Depend on the Bean Counter (2026) s01e04 Episode Script
I Punished Them
1
He went flying so easily.
A far cry from the holy maiden.
Are the powerless otherworlders
really this weak?
He always acts so cocky.
He's just a scoundrel who dares
to harbor feelings for Her Holiness!
Oh
I forgot to give this to Seichiro.
He's so capable.
Perhaps we should even give him
the authority to act independently.
Seichiro!
ISEKAI OFFICE WORKER: THE OTHER WORLD'S BOOKS DEPEND ON THE BEAN COUNTER
EPISODE 4: I PUNISHED THEM
Hey, Aresh.
What kind of person are you interested in?
What kind of person is he?
He has no resistance to magicules
yet still insists on overworking
his exhausted body.
He's also a picky eater
and keeps trying to sneak in tonics
if I don't keep an eye on him.
Now that I think about it,
he's so troublesome and infuriating.
But
Someone I just can't leave alone.
How bittersweet!
I see. Someone you just can't leave alone.
New feelings are confusing him.
Surely we can call this his first love!
Commander Indolark!
The royal medical bureau? What is it?
What do you mean?
Like I said, someone in particular
is responsible for all of Kondu's care.
I can't heal him.
You're the director of the medical bureau,
the best doctor and healer
this kingdom has.
Why can't you heal him?
Technically, it's not that I can't
heal him, but that I shouldn't.
No, well
I've already sent for someone
suitable to treat him.
Kondu's peculiar constitution is connected
to his relationship with Aresh.
I don't want to blurt that out by accident
and see my head separated from my body!
I've heard there are those who dislike
him because he's from another world,
yet not the holy maiden
Huh?!
That's how you're interpreting this?!
If I don't treat him, I'll earn
the ire of the prime minister
who holds peerless political
power in our kingdom!
If I do treat him, I'll piss off
the highest-ranking and most
powerful man in the kingdom's military!
All I can do now is buy time!
If you absolutely refuse to treat him,
I will arrange for another healer.
Th-That
That'd be a huge problem! Absolutely not!
Aresh!
Commander Indolark?
I'll begin treatment. Please leave.
I'm terribly sorry, Your Excellency.
It's just that Aresh is responsible
for all of Kondu's care
Even so, why must we leave
for him to be treated?
I-It will take some time
I'm sure Your Excellency is quite busy,
so there's no need to wait here.
Aresh, is half an hour enough?
Make it an hour.
Got it.
Thank goodness Aresh got here in time!
With his constitution, Kondu would
have immediately gotten magic-sick
if I'd used the amount of magic
necessary to treat such serious wounds.
It could have even been fatal.
The thought of a healer who doesn't
know his constitution treating him
sends shivers down my spine.
Then there's acclimating
him to magical energy
I should just leave Kondu to Aresh,
who knows his constitution well,
and focus on how to get
through this situation.
I see. You're staying until
the treatment is over?
It hurts In fact, it's agonizing
He went flying so easily.
He always acts so cocky.
He's just a scoundrel who dares
to harbor feelings for Her Holiness!
Those voices
I see. So it was them.
Then they must not be planning to kill me.
I just need to wait it out
I hope you've learned your lesson.
Know your place!
This is bad I can't move
If they leave me like this, I might die
So warm
I recognize this feeling.
Commander Indolark
How do you feel?
Much better.
Your injuries are still severe.
That's why I'm going to familiarize
my magical energy during the treatment
so it isn't interrupted
by magic-sickness.
It's going to take some time.
Okay. Sorry for always troubling you.
Does it hurt anywhere?
No, I'm fine.
I see.
His voice is hoarse.
You saved me.
Yeah.
This is the palace infirmary.
Someone must have carried me here.
I was lucky. I'll have to
thank whoever it was
They're broken.
I know. But it's better than
not wearing them at all.
Shall I clean your clothes with magic?
No, this is fine.
Yes, this is perfect.
My memory is hazy from when those thugs
beat me until my treatment was over,
but I'll never forget their voices.
Two were men from the third royal order
who kept complaining about expenses.
The other was the second order knight
who harassed me at lunch.
Um, Aresh?
Time's almost up. Are you done?
Kondu!
Ah, you're finally finished.
That took a long time.
Ciro-san and Prime Minister Karvada?
What brings you here?
His Excellency was the one
who brought you here, Kondu.
I'm very sorry for the trouble.
No matter. I'm just glad you're safe.
Wait, hang on.
The prime minister
was the first to find me,
and the commander of the
third royal order treated me himself.
Isn't this an incredibly lucky
and convenient turn of events?
Kondu.
What happened? Tell us in detail.
Harvey. Matthew.
The commander is calling
for you. Come with me.
Sir.
These two like to storm into the royal
accounting department over expenses.
I wonder if they've filed
a complaint about it.
Before, Aresh would have totally
ignored something like that
Aresh, I've brought them.
Enter.
What happened, Aresh?
Harvey Morales. Matthew Nieves.
Where were you during
the water hour yesterday?
Sir! We were both organizing the
storerooms before afternoon training
to check on our equipment
for the expedition.
The storerooms on the
second floor of the east wing?
Yes.
I see.
Then this scrap of cloth most certainly
belongs to one of you, does it not?
Y-Yes! I believe it must have caught
on something during our inspection.
I see.
By the way, yesterday, a high-ranking
civil official was assaulted.
Multiple people punched and kicked him.
Huh?
Said official was found unconscious in
a second-floor storeroom of the east wing.
He had countless bruises.
His ribs and arm were fractured.
Might this high-ranking civil official
be the holy maiden's tagalong?
That's right. Do you know something?
No, we just happened to pass each other
when we were leaving the storerooms.
I see. So something happened after that
"The holy maiden's tagalong."
That's Assistant Director
Seichiro Kondu of accounting.
He was an unbidden plus one
on the holy maiden's summoning.
Not only does he have no powers,
he also has no resistance to magicules.
He can barely eat or drink anything.
Yet even so, various departments
are wailing that he's
interfering with the palace accounts,
cutting their budgets.
There are rumors that Aresh, who usually
shows little interest in others,
has started having lunch with
Kondu and manages his meals.
The victim says that he tore off a piece
of one perpetrator's clothing with
a nail that he found on the ground.
What?!
I knew it
Why would they do something so stupid?
That look in Aresh's eyes
That means he's seriously pissed off!
We're innocent!
Would you really take a nobody
like him at his word, Commander?!
That's right!
He was unconscious, wasn't he?
Shouldn't we think whoever discovered him
is using him to frame
the third royal order?!
Excuse me.
Y-Your Excellency?!
It was Prime Minister Karvada who found
Kondu and carried him to the infirmary.
I could hear your voices
from the other side of the door.
So? What did you want to say
about whoever discovered him?
This is the second time we've met.
Huh?
Do you remember our encounter in front
of the accounting department?
Seichiro was in terrible shape.
He would have died if left alone.
No way It wasn't that bad.
Oh? You didn't know?
Since he has no resistance to magicules,
he can't consume normal medicines
or receive holy magic.
That's why he needed special treatment.
Your superior took care
of that personally.
We've already obtained
evidence from your peers
that you frequently pressured
Kondu regarding expenses.
How could you two do such a thing?!
Y-You're wrong, Vice Commander!
We were incited
What?
Excuse me.
Commander Makovska
of the second royal order!
I've brought him.
The holy maiden's bodyguard?
Yeah! It was him!
He's the one who asked for our help
teaching the holy maiden's
tagalong his place!
You bastards!
I don't care about your
internal conflicts.
You will all be punished.
A one-week suspension,
a restraining order preventing
contact with the victim,
a year's salary reduction,
and monetary compensation
Is such light punishment
really sufficient?
Yes.
Shouldn't they be stripped
of their knightly titles?
No, knights are rare enough as it is.
We can't afford to lose any
from the second order,
which protects important people,
or from the third order,
with their resistance to magicules,
ahead of exploring the demon forest.
Regardless, this is too
short of a suspension.
It's almost too long.
The suspension only serves to let
everyone know that they've caused trouble.
I'd rather have them working more.
Cutting their high salaries as knights
is good for the national treasury.
Then there's compensation for damages.
Including the medical expenses,
I'll be sure to collect
all 400,000 rula from the three of them.
400,000 RULA - 10,000,000 YEN
Even so, why settle things with money?
Wouldn't a punishment that hurts
their pride or dignity be better?
The only value I see
in them is their money.
More importantly
Thanks to this, the kingdom
has issued a statement
declaring that I am
a protected individual,
and now the second and third
royal orders owe me a favor.
Also, the holy maiden's demon forest
expedition getting moved up
will greatly reduce our expenses.
Take a look, Prime Minister Karvada.
I finished calculating the costs
of the expedition yesterday.
Let me see, Seichiro!
Hold on, Kondu.
You suffered serious injuries yesterday
and used up much of your
strength in treatment.
I've told you many times that
you need to rest properly.
Oh, crap.
What's wrong with you?!
You didn't listen to a single thing I said
and worked on documents all night?!
It wasn't all night. I did get some sleep.
Some sleep?
Er, no. I got plenty of sleep.
Don't lie to me!
Aresh never talks this much!
You're always like this!
You never look out for your health!
I apologize on behalf of my subordinates.
Please, that's already been addressed.
Moreover, you were the one who
healed my injuries, Commander Indolark.
So please raise your head.
No, I failed to supervise them properly.
Well, that's true
For starters, I didn't
expect much from you
as far as managing your
subordinates is concerned.
Now that they've promised to abide by the
rules set by the accounting department,
I think things worked out for the best.
More importantly, I should be
the one apologizing to you.
You? Apologize to me?
About my treatment.
I know you refused payment before,
but please allow me to repay you
for the magic treatment part, at least.
No. I mean
This was because of a
failing of my subordinates.
The undeniable fact remains
that you saved my life.
Not just once, but twice.
In addition, you've even offered
to cast a barrier spell on me.
I only have a general idea
of the going rates for magic,
but if you won't at least accept the
compensation I'm receiving this time,
then there was no point in extorting it.
Extorting it? Is that the reason you
It's true that recovery spells
are normally expensive.
Especially ones to treat life-threatening
injuries and illnesses like Kondu's.
More than half the treatment I've
provided thus far was voluntary.
And yet
If this makes him feel better
I understand. I'll accept the money.
I'll cast the barrier spell you mentioned
at the inn after this, as we planned.
Is that all right?
Yes, if you'd be so kind.
As I said, this barrier spell protects
the body from magical energy and magicules
like a protective suit.
If we add additional effects, it could
even protect you from physical contact—
in other words, repel violent attacks.
That's incredibly convenient.
That's what makes it so much
more complicated to cast.
Few can do it while
casting recovery magic.
The main issue is the sheer
amount of magical energy.
Using so much of it on you will directly
increase the effects your magic-sickness.
So, instead of casting it all at once,
it's better to gradually layer it
over you like a protective film.
I don't really understand the logic,
but I'm guessing he'll cast a thin
layer on me, allow me to acclimate,
and then repeat?
Take off your vest and sit here.
Huh? On your lap?
That's right.
Pardon me, then
You're still so light.
Prime Minister Karvada said the same
thing after I received treatment.
Honestly, that was quite a surprise.
I never expected to see the prime
minister carry Kondu in here.
What is it?
I've been thinking about
this for a while.
You've given me extensive treatment
and relief from magic-sickness
on two separate occasions now.
While I'm grateful for the care,
it feels inappropriate for me
to be such a one-sided burden.
So I've been thinking
The same goes for this barrier spell.
Gradually familiarizing me with
a large amount of magical energy
will take a lot more time and effort.
It's absurd to make him
do all of the work.
In the end, we just need contact for me
to acclimate to the magical energy.
If I act more cooperatively—
Commander Indolark?
Kondu, your first name
is Seiichirou, right?
Yes.
Do you know my first name?
Aresh-sama
Here you go.
The holy maiden's expedition
will depart six days from now.
Thank you very much.
Finally.
I immediately need to begin
calculating the costs
of the miasma damage and revise
the expedition budget.
Oh, and three days from today,
the royal family will be hosting a banquet
as a send-off for the expedition.
Come again?
I'm required to attend as well,
as your escort
Does that mean this is
Sei-san's big moment?!
What am I doing here?!
There's so much to prepare!
Why are you so excited about this?
Get back to work!
What?
Don't give me that!
They want to throw a banquet
when nothing's been accomplished yet?
This is just a publicity stunt to show off
the royal family leading the expedition.
Their goal is probably
to put some pressure on us
and let the nobles get a
gander at promising talent.
Depending on its scale,
this banquet could seriously
cut into the national budget.
Okay, Sei-san! I'll swing by
your place in three days!
Don't you dare run away!
Okay? You got it? Okay? Okay, okay, okay?!
Why are you so hyped up about this?!
I brought my mother's personal maids!
Sei-san, at the very least, we gotta
do something about those dark circles!
Please leave it to us.
After a massage with marisan oil,
we'll apply calbert lotion.
It will definitely firm up your skin.
Ah, please forgive me.
I don't have any resistance
to magicules
Right! We were told in advance.
The young master himself
arranged for a special lotion
in light of your constitution.
It's been a long time since I've seen
our young master so enthusiastic!
I brought you some formal wear!
These will definitely suit you!
Thank you, Nor.
Come to think of it,
he is from a wealthy family
Now, we'll use a special liquid
to treat around your eyes.
I will also begin the massage
to improve your circulation.
EPISODE 5
I WENT ON AN EXPEDITION
He went flying so easily.
A far cry from the holy maiden.
Are the powerless otherworlders
really this weak?
He always acts so cocky.
He's just a scoundrel who dares
to harbor feelings for Her Holiness!
Oh
I forgot to give this to Seichiro.
He's so capable.
Perhaps we should even give him
the authority to act independently.
Seichiro!

it's better to gradually layer it
over you like a protective film.
I don't really understand the logic,
but I'm guessing he'll cast a thin
layer on me, allow me to acclimate,
and then repeat?
Take off your vest and sit here.
Huh? On your lap?
That's right.
Pardon me, then
You're still so light.
Prime Minister Karvada said the same
thing after I received treatment.
Honestly, that was quite a surprise.
I never expected to see the prime
minister carry Kondu in here.
What is it?
I've been thinking about
this for a while.
You've given me extensive treatment
and relief from magic-sickness
on two separate occasions now.
While I'm grateful for the care,
it feels inappropriate for me
to be such a one-sided burden.
So I've been thinking
The same goes for this barrier spell.
Gradually familiarizing me with
a large amount of magical energy
will take a lot more time and effort.
It's absurd to make him
do all of the work.
In the end, we just need contact for me
to acclimate to the magical energy.
If I act more cooperatively—
Commander Indolark?
Kondu, your first name
is Seiichirou, right?
Yes.
Do you know my first name?
Aresh-sama
Here you go.
The holy maiden's expedition
will depart six days from now.
Thank you very much.
Finally.
I immediately need to begin
calculating the costs
of the miasma damage and revise
the expedition budget.
Oh, and three days from today,
the royal family will be hosting a banquet
as a send-off for the expedition.
Come again?
I'm required to attend as well,
as your escort
Does that mean this is
Sei-san's big moment?!
What am I doing here?!
There's so much to prepare!
Why are you so excited about this?
Get back to work!
What?
Don't give me that!
They want to throw a banquet
when nothing's been accomplished yet?
This is just a publicity stunt to show off
the royal family leading the expedition.
Their goal is probably
to put some pressure on us
and let the nobles get a
gander at promising talent.
Depending on its scale,
this banquet could seriously
cut into the national budget.
Okay, Sei-san! I'll swing by
your place in three days!
Don't you dare run away!
Okay? You got it? Okay? Okay, okay, okay?!
Why are you so hyped up about this?!
I brought my mother's personal maids!
Sei-san, at the very least, we gotta
do something about those dark circles!
Please leave it to us.
After a massage with marisan oil,
we'll apply calbert lotion.
It will definitely firm up your skin.
Ah, please forgive me.
I don't have any resistance
to magicules
Right! We were told in advance.
The young master himself
arranged for a special lotion
in light of your constitution.
It's been a long time since I've seen
our young master so enthusiastic!
I brought you some formal wear!
These will definitely suit you!
Thank you, Nor.
Come to think of it,
he is from a wealthy family
Now, we'll use a special liquid
to treat around your eyes.
I will also begin the massage
to improve your circulation.
