While the pacing runs at light speed, at least the king actually sort of acts like a king. He doesn't bad mouth the summoned hero for a 'useless' skill and instead tries to make the best of it and didn't get mad when the summoned hero didn't know he couldn't go back. I imagine when he hears of what he's doing, he'll be happy because the summoned hero is still helping with the war effort by mass producing goods that are helpful or in short supply.
