Ascendance of a Bookworm

The second part of two years of the gossip temple.

At the end of the summer, new ink was completed, which meant that at the Rosemaine workshop, cardmaking began with new ink on new paper.

It's a piece of paper with a rugged hard material that looks completely different from the cards made of trees before. The ink is also multicolored, the colour is changed for each mark, and it looks very beautiful.

And about one autumn day when the harvest festival was approaching, Lord Egmont took one gray witch and suddenly came to the temple chief's office. I see the gray witch being taken is blue, and I frown a little bit.

"Dear Egmont, I have not received an appointment to see you here..."

"What reservation do you need in the temple chief's office where there is no temple chief and only a gray cleric?

That's what they said with a flat face, and I sighed one out and looked at the zarm. The zarm disappears toward the kitchen. You will leave the room from the kitchen and inform the clergyman. I have to buy some time here until the Chief Cleric returns.

"I'm so sorry. I had never received a blue cleric before without an appointment for a meeting. You seem a little upset by what happened the first time. I can guess if it's a big rush, but what can I do for you?

"Return Lily and put in a new side service. Bring the gray witch here."

I immediately turned my attention to Monica. Monica turns herself in instantly and leaves the room. You will contact Vilma at the orphanage.

"Dear Egmont, I'm very sorry, but we don't have an appointment to see you, and we won't be able to deal with that right away if you suddenly offer to do so"

"What?

"The Grey Witch also has a task entrusted to each of them by Dean Rosemaine, the orphan director, so it takes time to turn around and collect them, and I can't say that the identity of the witch who is cleansing the temple is sober enough to get out in front of the Blue Cleric"

Lord Egmont's eyes were narrowed, as he did not understand very well. I guess all you know is a grey witch who's dressed up.

"If it is to be served to Lord Egmont's side, the Grey Witches need to be cleansed so that they look a little more beautiful, not in the state they have been called and gathered at work either. Today, just to talk, isn't exchanging gray witches more desirable for Lord Egmont after you get an appointment?

It is the blue cleric who does not want to put anything that is not beautiful in his sight, so Lord Egmont convinced him once and for all, even though he looked dissatisfied.

"I would like to ask Master Egmont, why are you returning Lily? Tell us what made you unhappy."

I asked pretending to fill out the paperwork, knowing there was only one reason why the gray witch would be sent back to the orphanage.

Master Egmont looks down at Lily uncomfortably, hun, and snorts.

"Because I'm pregnant. You make a dark face or you suddenly throw up when you feel bad every day. It doesn't help you at all."

"I see. You're flanking me, but you don't seem to be able to do your job"

"Oh, yeah"

This one affirmed only a little soothing to Master Egmont's tone.

"But if it means exchanging side services, it will be under the jurisdiction of the Chief Cleric, not this temple chief's office. Make an appointment with the Chief Cleric."

"What!? Tell the temple chief, would that be enough!?

Lord Egmont is a blue cleric who was cordial with the former temple chief, so until now he must have all come through talking to the temple chief and doing what he wanted to do. But not now. It is the Chief Cleric who is trying his best to return to the state that was before the period when the former Temple Chief ruled as much as possible.

"It is the task of the Chief Cleric when it comes to the transfer of clerics and witches. The boundaries around it may have been vague before, but not now"

"You're busy with the gray clergy!

The moment Lord Egmont reached out, the chillin and little bell sounded. Exhales a breath of inner relief at the sound of the chief priest's bell. Zam, who went to get the Cleric Chief, came in to lead the Cleric Chief.

"Dear Egmont, I actually have a meeting scheduled with the Cleric Chief from now on. I'll give you some time, so why don't you talk to the chief cleric?

"Knock..."

If you're a grey cleric opponent, you don't have to know, and you can't do that to a cleric chief opponent. Those who were former Temple Chiefs in the Temple, because they do not cooperate with the Clerical Chiefs, are cut off their budgets little by little and have narrow shoulders.

"Fran, I should have booked a meeting, but why is Egmont here?

The clergyman who came into the room looked uncomfortably at Lord Egmont and said so. I answer honestly.

"Master Egmont was here all of a sudden. He wants to replace the gray witch urgently."

"Hmm, it's my job to talk about the clergy's transfer. Egmont, make an appointment for me, not the temple chief's office."

Master Egmont tried to drag Lily out so she could be replaced with the Cleric Chief, and in the end, Master Egmont would make an appointment for the Cleric Chief.

I kneel before the Chief Cleric after seeing the door that Zahm has closed exactly.

"I sincerely apologize for your efforts in this matter, Chief Cleric"

"No, good. I assumed this would happen more than without Rosemaine.... but replacing the gray witch? If you don't mind Rosemaine, it'll be loud later. Totally troublesome."

The Chief Cleric sighed lightly and told me what Lady Rosemaine intended. He insisted to the clergyman that he would not mind giving out the gray witch he wished, but that he who hated it would never, even if he had served it.

... truly Master Rosemaine is sweet to those in the orphanage.

I am glad that that sounds like Rosemayne, and at the same time, I am anxious to see what happens when Rosemayne is no longer the temple director.

"Fran, Egmont, who needs a new side service, will soon be applying for a meeting appointment. I'm going to be seeing 5 bells in three days. That fold, after drawing the will of Rosemaine, so that it brings more gray witches from the orphanage"

"Yes, sir."

When I escorted the Chief Cleric out of the room, I entrusted the absence of the room to the Thurm and headed straight to the orphanage. I am certain that someone will be served as a new side service to Lord Egmont. You'll need to be ready in three days.

"Fran, what happened?

When I went into the orphanage, I shook my hand in front of my chest all the time and a shivering Vilma came out. Caring Monica is escorting you next door.

"Yes. Looks like Lily had a child. Three days from now, we have a selection of new flanks."

"Three days later, is that..."

"Vilma, you said the chief cleric could draw the will of Master Rosemaine. So it's not going to be as bad as Vilma thinks"

Vilma is male phobic and doesn't want to get out of the orphanage, and for gray clerics and gray witches who will remain in the orphanage, although she won't want any more because it has already become Lord Rosemayne's sideline service, it is born that she can be served in the sideline. Even though the Lord is Lord Egmont, there are those who wish to serve.

More grey witches have grown up in orphanages too, as Rosina and Nicola have grown up, but there are not twenty gray witches on this scene right now.

Some gray witches lined up are holding tight hands in front of themselves to claim they never want to go, and some are showing a distressing bare gesture which way to go. Of course, some were as luminous and eye-catching as old Delia was.

"Is there a gray witch in this who wants to be Lord Egmont's sideline?

Four gray witches raised their hands with momentum. Ignoring completely the presence of the gray witch who is looking around and moving back and forth whether to raise her hand or not, I declared, "Then I will take these four to the place of selection in three days' time".

"... Fran, are you sure it's not all of us?

Vilma blinked again and again, as surprised, thinking that all the grey witches of her age would be taken for selection.

"Because it is Rosemaine's will to find you as much path of hope as possible. I give priority to those who want to go."

And at the same time as the five bells rang three days later, I took the four men who wished to side serve and headed to the Cleric Chief's room.

"Just four?

Master Egmont looks at the grey witches lined up and looks up.

"... because a lot of witches were disposed of by the former temple chief. Didn't Master Egmont know?

"No, I knew.... but, well, the quality is good"

It is only natural that we have an exterior that bears the spectacle, as it is all the grey witches left by the former temple chief considering only the exterior. Comparing the gray witches with a slight and inferior eye, Master Egmont pointed to one gray witch.

"Okay, it's you"

When one was nominated, leaving only that person, I immediately left the room with Lily, who was to be returned to the orphanage with the remaining three.

The later contract is to be carried out by the Chief Cleric. I do not know the details of the contract, but those who serve the side of the blue clergy are bound by contract magic so as not to divulge information from the blue clergy to the nobility about how Rosemayne cooks, about the workshop, about Rosemayne's personal circumstances, etc.

"Welcome back, Lily. It must have been tough working in a bad mood, huh? You should get some rest in the orphanage."

Lily suddenly began to zero out tears to pick up Vilma. As Vilma stroked her back gently, Lily cried and complained that it was very hard to be cursed by the Lord that her body was in the way, unnecessary, even though she could not help but be afraid to change so that she didn't even know.

I left the occasion to Vilma and left the orphanage. In the meantime, I guess this was a good thing because, as Master Rosemayne hoped, those who wanted to be side-served could be side-served and those who were hard could quit being side-served.

Now, this is how a pregnant woman was put back in an orphanage, but I don't know how to treat a pregnant woman. "My body changes so I don't even know it," Lily said, "but I don't know how it's going to change for me or for those of us watching it beside me.

When I questioned the Cleric Chief, the Cleric Chief's answer was, "Once the moon is, it will come into being on its own".

If the chief cleric says so, I guess that's what it is, and Touri and Lutz have come to learn how to behave where the whole orphanage stands relaxed.

"Leave it alone and you'll be born on your own!? That's not true! Births are tough!? Is it easy and easy to produce a nobleman!?

"It's not something you can do without preparation! We're gonna help each other out with a bunch of guys and take out the baby, okay?

I've seen my own mother's birth. I was a lot bloody distracted by Rutz's words that would drive me to prep if I had a birth in Tulli and your neighborhood. Speaking of which, even in marriage, perceptions and customs differed between civilians and nobles. Common sense can be different even in childbirth. In orphanages where there is no magic or magic equipment, perhaps civilian births are closer.

The chief cleric has no choice but to indulge in external forces than to guess what he says. However, in an attempt to help each other, no one is experiencing childbirth in an orphanage, and in this current situation, where orphans are scorned, no one is as peculiar as coming to an orphanage to help with childbirth.

... If Master Rosemayne were here at a time like this.

I couldn't help but think so. Master Rosemayne would have watched his brother's birth up close, and it would have been easy to gather people in solidarity with officials in the lower town.

"My mother would come, but there's nothing I can do to help you alone"

"In the meantime, I'll ask your husband. Master Corinna gave birth, so you know what you need."

I heard Lutz say, "If you were born on your own, you wouldn't have a hard time! It's too dangerous to give birth in a temple orphanage with absolutely no knowledge of your birth! Pregnant women are gonna die," he said. I didn't think it was that hard to have a child, and everyone turned bright blue.

Looks like you considered Benno and the others to be some good way to go. "For now, on the occasion of the harvest festival, move Lily to Hasse," Rutz said. If you are a small temple in Hasse, you may find about a few women who can help you if Ahim and Egon, who wrote a brush in the name of the temple chief and spent the winter with him, ask for it because they are still close to the inhabitants. Besides, if you're an orphan from Hasse, you should be more familiar with the birth than the gray witch here, Master Benno said.

... That's Benno. Thank you for your advice in your busy schedule.

Following Master Benno's proper advice, we have begun to prepare Lily so that she can be moved to Hasse. People at the Plantan Chamber of Commerce will also hear about the tools you need to give birth and get them all together.

And a fall harvest festival.

I wrote Richt a favor letter so he could help me with Lily's birth. And the carriage carrying Lily, Ahim and Egon, along with the carriage heading for the harvest festival, will also go to Hasse.

By asking Master Charlotte to give us a letter to Richt, you were comfortable with us when it came to cooperation on helping with childbirth.

Nora, who is in the Little Temple, still seems to have been present at the birth, and is great at checking what she needs and finding out when she was due to give birth because of Lily's physical condition.

"Maybe the birth will be about the end of the next spring. So bring some more witches during the prayer ceremony. I don't really need you because you can't go into the room where you give birth."

... I see, if a man doesn't get in, there must be a difference between what he knows in Touri and Lutz.

Thus, with Lily and the others in Hasse, I set out for the continuation of the harvest festival.

With the help of Wilfried and Charlotte successfully at the Harvest Festival, the necessary supplies were collected for winter support.

It was requested through Gill and, as it did last year, pork processing was carried out in cooperation with the Gilberta Chamber of Commerce, and one day the autumn was drawing to an end, both in the temple and in winter support one after another. Lady Benno of the Plantan Chamber of Commerce has been summoned to speak with the Chief Cleric about expanding the printing industry. Anything, Master Elvira, Rosemayne's mother, seems to be saying she wants to build a workshop on the land where your parents live.

"I can't do anything right now, no matter how much. In winter, you can't make a piece of paper on a land where the river freezes, just on your way from now on. Who will compensate for our food and our lives, which will be trapped in snow and ice and we will not be able to get out of Haldenzel, despite what we cannot do?

"Coverage of life will be done by Geebe Haldenzel, but don't bother that there's nothing you can do"

I desperately appeal to the clergyman who frowns that Master Benno has a very troubled face and cannot do it right away. Lady Benno would have felt a little more comfortable if Lady Rosemaine had also been present on this occasion.

"We need to be ready for every workshop, and if we don't have a foothold with commercial guilds, we can't sell them out. Even through impossibility with aristocratic authority, the roots of evil will remain and we will have trouble later. Aristocrats are noble, merchants are merchants, and craftsmen are artisanal. The Chief Cleric understands, of course, that Elvira understands the need and importance of rooting and preparing in advance."

"Then make it a list and submit it by the winter baptism ceremony as to what preparations are required. If you're not all set, you can't go into coaching."

"Yes, sir."

Master Benno, who leaves the clergyman's office and heads to the front entrance, held his head.

A business meeting took place between Lady Elvira and Lady Benno as the head of the printing workshop, the clergyman, stood.

I really want to print something to sell in the winter social world, so I need my own printing workshop, so I got what Benno said once and for all in the form of taking on that print at Rosemaine Workshop for Elvira, who said I want it made immediately.

As a result, I had to throw out the winter shift and move the workshop desperately.

"I'm sorry, could you ask me"

Master Benno took a trip to the workshop and asked the gray clerics directly. Everyone nods, "I'll do what I can because I take care of this one for the Plantain Chamber of Commerce.

It was Elvira-sama's manuscript that Benno was offered. Gill and Lutz frowned on its thickness.

"It's going to take too long to put this many pieces together in metal typescripts. I haven't been able to sort out the number of characters."

"You should make it Gali print this time"

As the two nodded each other rushed out to the orphanage with the raw Rowe paper and tools, those who heard of Gali edition printing began to prepare.

Fritz goes up close to Master Benno, who is exhaling like he's horrified to see how it goes.

"Dear Benno, we will cooperate as best we can. But what should I do with winter support? I can't go to the woods anymore, so there's so much missing."

"In the meantime, I left it somewhat bogged down with express rates. Most winter jobs have to be solved with gold."

"So I'll put together a list of what I need, can you?

"Oh, this one said he couldn't do it and screwed the job. Let me do that."

With Benno's undertaking regarding winter support, the workshop will be able to work to the point where the winter social community begins.

"I'm afraid so. Then Benno can go back to the store now. This isn't the only one Master Benno has to arrange, is it?

"Help, Fritz"

Master Benno flipped himself out of the workshop.

"Fran, as you can see. For winter support in the orphanage, please contact the Temple Commander's Office."

"Okay."

When Fritz pushed me through the list of winter degrees in the workshop relationship, I took a trip to the orphanage. I also need a list of winter degrees here.

In the orphanage dining room, you can see Gil and Lutz lining up their tools on the table.

"May I ask the beautiful Rosina of the letters to have the parts of the letters and the Vilma to have the parts of the paintings gallicated?

"If anyone else has a beautiful letter, ask for a gully cut. … it won't be a problem if the text varies slightly from page to page"

"I come to the orphanage to teach music, but I can't help it."

I grabbed the manuscript as Rosina gently clasped her shoulders to the two words.

"... oh? These marks are very graceful. If we cut it like this, wouldn't it be a problem?

"All right, then you can increase the number of gallips. Cut it to pieces as you see in these marks."

As Rutz and Gill seemed busy speaking to everyone around, I spoke to Vilma and asked her to come up with a list of winter degrees. As you can see at a glance what has already been done and what needs to be done, this is what Lady Rosemaine prepared for the first year.

"Fritz asked me to take on the winter support. Vilma, invest in your work."

"Thank you, Fran"

I will split with Zahm and Monica to put together what I ask of the Plantan Chamber of Commerce. There are quite a few things to prepare as temple chief's office, orphanage, workshop relationship and winter support.

Received at the harvest festival, I leave it to three people in the kitchen, Hugo and Ella and Nicola, when it comes to foods that need processing. Everyone ran off with an extra workload in their hands.

As a result of working together so hard that we cannot afford to help the Chief Cleric, the printed material that had been requested by Master Elvira was finished on the verge of the start of the winter social world.

Done! and in a workshop full of joy, I opened the book created in paralysis.

"... Um, Master Benno. From what I've seen, it looks like it has a picture of the chief cleric attached to it, is this really with the permission of the chief cleric?

When I tilted my neck knowing how Lady Rosemaine had been scolded and banned, Lady Benno glanced at me with a slightly disfigured face.

"Print it, the clergyman had given me an order, and I deposited the manuscript from Master Elvira. What more do you need than that? If you say something extra and it's all gone, who's gonna pay for the damage? Ah?"

I glanced at my mouth with a glittering reddish brown eye. I couldn't care less to speak to Master Benno, who was frustrated by his lack of sleep. Besides, as Lady Benno said, "Print him so Elvira feels better" is what you said to the throw.

... What the hell happens to the social world in the winter?

The year is about to come, but Master Rosemayne's awakening is going to be even further ahead, the clergyman said. I didn't quite understand, but the magic is too compressed, and it seems to be taking a lot of time to solve it.

The Cleric Chief complains about the bump, telling me to replace the Demon Stone and see how Master Rosemaine is doing. To the whine, "How could I have lived with all this magic, Rosemaine?" I piled up a book that I could have done on the table, wondering if it was God's will to have Rosemaine.

When the winter social world begins and the clergyman is absent, we must also begin to prepare for the service ceremony. I'm already used to preparing without a mentor, and everyone will do their job well in procedure.

Unlike last year, the clergyman returned once during the service ceremony and after asking how Master Rosemayne was doing, he returned to the castle.

And we will finish the service ceremony this year with a demonic stone caged with the magic of Master Rosemaine.

Winter printing, with the advice of Thuri, led to the creation of a book summarizing courtesies and aristocratic rhetoric. Because I told him that even if he didn't sell to the nobles, he would sell to the luxury merchants and the leading people in towns and villages.

It's spring, with no major changes in Master Rosemaine.

Benno came to the prayer ceremony meeting as the Plantan Chamber of Commerce was busy moving around not knowing when Elvira's request would be.

The discussion takes place in the Office of the Orphan Dean, where three gray witches and Vilma are to be heard together to take them from the orphanage. And the Plantain Chamber of Commerce is full of men, so in consideration of the witches, Touri, familiar with his demeanor, was present for the discussion. It would be a little easier to give an opinion, Benno's consideration.

"Perhaps by the time of the prayer ceremony, both me and Lutz are going to Haldenzel. For ease of speaking with this one, leave Marc at the voicemail this time, so the prayer day interaction should be Marc. I think it's safe to say that the Guilberta Chamber of Commerce also has Thuri."

Tulli laughed and nodded nicely. The achievement of learning how to behave seems to be steady, sitting in one very much better position.

"Are you sure there are four witches here who will take you to help with the birth at the prayer ceremony?

"No, you don't. I..."

Lady Benno raised her eyebrows gently as she shook her head like Vilma panicked.

"You're the orphanage administrator and you serve Lord Rosemayne, right? That's how you introduced yourself, isn't it? Then it would seem better to leave the management of the orphanage to others, see the birth, and help. Because there's a lot you don't know if you don't try."

"That's true..."

As Vilma finally said and sifted and shook her head, she came looking to me for help. Perhaps I can't help but be afraid to talk to Master Benno. I explained the circumstances of Burma to Lady Benno.

"I see, ever since the blue cleric was about to force me, I've been afraid of men and I can't go outside," he said.... don't be sweet. "

Lady Benno's face, which was calm, turned angry, and the tone of her voice dropped grossly.

"Huh?"

"I guess you're the orphanage manager, huh? Then I don't even know how many times I'm going to have the same pregnant woman. What if someone who stands above you doesn't know about the birth!? Don't think you can count on Hasse every time. Insert it in your head that you're going to teach us to do something about it ourselves."

Exposed to Master Benno's anger, Vilma shook her head in a pompous tear.

"... but I am"

"I don't have Lady Rosemaine, I don't count on anyone to cooperate at all, and I'm asking for help over here, so damn it, I'm helping out here when I'm busy. And yet you're going to cage in an orphanage asking for help, not wanting to do it!?

"Oh, I didn't mean to..."

You didn't think you could throw such a strong word at me, I'll keep an eye out for you as Vilma surprised.

But Master Benno yelled, looking straight at Vilma like that.

"Then what are you going to do, leave it to others and lock yourself up for it!? Don't be sweet! Managing an orphanage is your job! Get to work! There's no room over here to help the unmotivated. If you don't go, I won't give you a carriage! We'll be there in only half a day. Walk away!

"Dear Benno!?

Lady Benno said she would give money, hire escorts, and prepare carriages so that the gray clerics, whom Lady Rosemaine did not know the world, would travel on foot if they were half a day away.

"I'm not willing to devote my time to someone who's not motivated and gutless. Excuse me because I'm ready to head to Haldenzel."

"Wait! I'll be there. I'll be there... Please help me."

Vilma complained that way crying and Master Benno sat back down, frowning. We discuss with each other what we prepare for the prayer ceremony, and the occasion is dissolved.

After Lady Benno left the room, I looked down with a slightly cooler eye at Vilma, who would try to collapse and cry on the spot.

"... I can understand the fear of being forced to act unintentionally, but wasn't Vilma helped out by nothing? Some people will not be helped and will be forced to continue. Still, we just have to live and overcome it one by one."

"Fran?"

"Lily, who is about to have a child now, wanted a child? Even if you don't, you're about to come into labor fighting fear"

Vilma raised her face like a hack. I said quietly, looking down at Vilma.

"How many years have you been protected by Master Rosemaine? In the words of Vilma, Rosina worked hard to overcome the paperwork she didn't like. Master Rosemaine also worked hard to develop her upbringing. I think Vilma, who advised both of us, should overcome his bad behavior."

Gutenberg's move took place as Geebe Haldenzel returned to his territory. Along with the Gutenbergs, Gill and several gray clerics head to Haldenzel.

Then came the day when we didn't spend much time and left for the prayer ceremony.

I see Tulli, worried about the twisted Vilma, coming to see me off and encouraging me diligently.

"Vilma, it's okay. The soldier who travels with us to Hasse is our father."

"Us?...... ah"

Vilma, who seems to have remembered the relationship between Tulli and Master Rosemaine, compares Tulli to Gunter, who looks worried.

"We do not allow anyone to ramble or make fun of Master Rosemaine's important side of the service. So don't worry."

"Thank you, I know."

By Tulli's encouragement and Gunter's consideration, Vilma stepped out of her trembling feet and boarded the carriage.

At the end of spring, when summer was now withheld, a child was born in the small temple of Hasse, Vilma told me. At a time when the climate is good at the beginning of the summer, I ask Master Marc to send me a carriage to pick me up.

Back from the Little Temple of Hasse were Vilma and the Grey Witches who went to help, then Lily and the new baby who became my mother.

After experiencing life outside, Vilma's expression became brighter, her eyes saw strength, and she looked a lot harder.

She said that life began in the orphanage taking care of the baby while everyone took turns, just like when Dilk did. Vilma and Lily now look tired all the time.

At the end of the summer, when Monica grows up, Master Rosemayne will not wake up. But in the middle of autumn, when the harvest festival is approaching, the chief cleric said the awakening is approaching.

It means that 70% to 80% of the treatment has been completed and the eyelids are starting to move or fingertips moving.

During the harvest festival, according to the zahm that remained in the temple, the chief cleric, once every few days also during the harvest festival, seemed to fly the horseman at midnight and to be returned to see how Master Rosemaine was doing.

"How important is Master Rosemayne?"

"... I feel like I understand. Lady Rosemaine was the only one who tried to reduce the work of the clergyman."

Are there any other bosses besides Rosemayne who are seriously worried about the health of the clergyman that drugged him is bad for his health and will direct him to the lord?

"I'd like you to wake up to Master Rosemaine as soon as possible for the health of the Chief Cleric."

... Wake up and you'll wake up. So, though, for the Chief Cleric, the headache days will begin.

I saw signs of awakening, so that I would prepare myself for the bath, and the chief clergyman would say to me, it was only a short while after that.
