Ascendance of a Bookworm

And then a new life began.

I feel not so different from my life in the castle because Richarda, the leader, is with me.

But by the time I woke up, Lieselator and Brunhilde had already finished their personal duties and were in the room. I also find myself sleeping alone when everyone is awake, and I want to wake up early, but when I am in a position to be taken care of, I need to weigh myself because those who serve must wake up sooner.

Breakfast is to be picked up in the dining room. Upon finishing the change of clothes, Brunhilde and Lieselator, as well as the escort knights, travel all the way to the dining room with each side service. The first touch seemed to be going, and when I went downstairs on the horseback, my brothers Cornelius were waiting.

"Good morning, Master Rosemaine"

The proximity of the students is to eat with me, and the service will be left to each side. When the lecture starts, it seems to be because of the difficulty of eating off time for a long time. In other words, I will be served and fed by Richarda.

When we're done with breakfast, the clergyman will take you to the multipurpose hall. The first year's meeting on measures begins.

"Side service is Richarda, and civilian apprenticeships are with Filine, so if you leave one escort knight, and the others have an ops meeting, you can head that way."

"The protection is too thin, Master Rosemaine"

Brother Cornelius and Wilfried frowned all together.

"It's okay in the dorm, Cornelius. Lady Ferdinand gave you many amulets."

Amulet?

"It's a dangerous magic trick that makes the person who attacked you more pathetic."

I, who do not have a Starp, cannot attack like an attack unless I pray, or I fly reason to anger and activate intimidation. When I told the clergyman that I couldn't do anything on my own during the raid two years ago, the clergyman took the liberty of replenishing his magic by keeping it on his skin and giving me the magic equipment to activate immediately when he was raided.

"It's a very Ferdinand-like magic trick, though they say that if they work out measures, they'll have trouble, so they should never talk about how they're wearing it or how it activates it."

Brother Cornelius and Wilfried distorted my expression with the words "very Ferdinand-like sorcery". Was there something between me and the chief cleric while I slept?

"... ok. Then I'll leave Master Rosemaine's escort to Leonore."

"No, Cornelius. Please don't let me escort you."

Angelica comes forward with a motivated grin. Brother Cornelius also turned to Angelica with a temperamental smile.

"Countering Angelica is the key to the Knight Apprentice Team's victory. Study group at the countermeasures conference, neither of which would have started without Angelica, would it?

Angelica is pulled when she slopes at her smiling brother Cornelius. We're both growing in appearance, but it doesn't change anything at all from when we were in "Angelica's Grade Up Team".

I turned my gaze, laughing at Eudit, looking at Angelica as she was dragged away in a dazed face.

"Eudit, you can come too. We're having a sophomore discussion over there at the table."

"Yes. I'm coming."

Could it have suddenly broken Eudit's fantasy about Angelica that he had? Pathetic, but it must be shallower to know reality early on. You're just a little too bad at studying, Angelica's strength is real.

"Is Leonore okay without studying?

"Don't worry. I got the material from Cornelius, and I've already got it through my eyes when it comes to fourth grade seating."

"Well, Leonore is excellent"

Reminds me of Darmuel, who was struggling about Angelica, and when I groaned, Leonore laughed as troubled.

"Master Rosemayne told me what he remembered two years ago..."

"I was just compiling material with Dermuel to teach Angelica. I didn't completely remember, and I already forgot."

"Have such humility again. Lady Rosemaine, you're being modest."

... No, it's not humble, it's true.

I do remember a lot in "Angelica's Achievement Team," but I have already forgotten about Pokopo. I don't get on the subject of tea parties, such as how knights fight and tactics that involve even witchcraft, so I don't have a problem with forgetting.

"Where did Brother Wilfried struggle in seating?

"History and geography. Otherwise, Mauritz tells me I can pass enough, within the limits of studying in the children's room in the winter. I think we need to focus on history and geography and start training a little bit in practical skills for everyone."

It seems that Wilfried thought of himself. He shows me his education plan. There are mathematical, theological, historical, geographic and magical anthologies, but history and geography are greatly marked.

"What subjects are practical skills? I was struck by Master Ferdinand, but I didn't have time to do it."

"The magical skills that freshmen perform are the handling and compression of magic, the creation of horsebacks, and the acquisition of staples. They'd be so smacked in that they don't need to practice, right? Later, courtroom manipulation, music and devotional dance, but don't you do it normally"

... Oh, my God, I, in fact, as of two years ago, had been knocked in with a lot of things, even with regard to practical skills. Chief Cleric, don't be afraid.

"Have you reached your passing score? I don't think I've been able to dance at all."

"I can't leave freshman year at the service dance, so I only have archery. For all of them, a single passing score should be over. Obviously, if you can't, your uncle can't miss it.

Wilfried is right. There's no way the clergyman who worked hard "for himself" is going to miss something that's going to fail.

"Now, until the three bells ring, we shall all study history and geography. After that, we'll start practicing Fesspiel."

Teach history and geography as you divide them between me and Vilfleet. Some senior aristocrats had already been taught.

Within expectations, the lower nobles do not seem to benefit from good teachers and there is a strong difference in knowledge regarding history and geography that is not taught in the children's room in winter. Philine, who doesn't have a brother or sister, looks particularly difficult.

"Shall we begin with a general course of history"

"Right. The area around the first founding is also the same part as the Bible picture books. It'll be a little easy to remember."

The first-year team has the smallest number of people. Only the freshman team is less than ten. That's why they all want to aim for victory with speed of passing.

"Oh, well, the students this year are a lot keen to study"

"Dr. Hillsur"

Even so, his duties as a teacher seemed to be busier, and Hirshur, who didn't see much in the dorm, came into the multi-purpose hall and turned his eyes round.

You'd be surprised if they all got together in a multi-purpose hall, split up by team, and worked out exam prep. I haven't even started lecturing yet, because it's not the first crisis at the end of the school year.

"You'll be busy studying, but pay attention here. Tomorrow's advanced ceremony will take place in the auditorium on the 3 bells. Afterwards, there is a rapprochement together with lunch. Aerenfest's number for this year is 13. Do not act with that in mind. I am in the main building because I want to advance my research by the time the lecture begins. Don't let the Lordship Candidate take any troubling action on my hands."

Hirschühl left early enough to tell only the clerical contact. I want to give priority to my research over the management of dormitories, that's just the teacher the clergyman still contacts. Must be a fellow Mad Scientist.

"You're an unusual teacher."

A Wilfried escort knight nodded, holding back beside the whining of Wilfried.

"Yes, Dr. Hillsur has changed a bit. However, so far I have only seen myself when I unlock the dorm room at the beginning of the House of Lords and when I close the key at the end. Even then, he's the one who's showing up, taking into account the Lordship candidate. As far as I know, I ended up in Ordonanz, such as administrative contact."

Last year, senior students informed Ordnants that all the freshmen had assembled, and then Ordnants returned for administrative liaison, he said.

Wilfried heard the story and frowned softly.

"That Hillsur has been on our knees since the first time he met us, and he didn't even say hi. Isn't it strange not only as a teacher, but also as an Aerenfest nobleman"

"No, Dr. Hillsur is not a nobleman of Aerenfest. I'm a central nobleman because I'm transferring my nationality to the center. And since teachers in the House of Lords are in a better position than students, it seems that there are no teachers in the hospital who kneel to students."

"... Really?"

In the meantime, I checked the scope of the lecture over the course of the day and washed out the weak parts of each. We will build on that.

"I saw the results of the day today, and it looks like fesh peel practice in the children's room in the winter worked. With this, even lower nobles don't seem to have a hard time passing.... Given that, shouldn't we also add geography and history to our studies in the children's room in the winter?

"Right. I think we need to create a picture book that looks like it could be used as a teaching material for that. Dr. Maurice is in trouble with nothing."

When I strained and held my fist to make a book for the children, Wilfried lifted up his hand gently and stopped me.

"Wait, Rosemaine. If you want to make materials, make them out of sophomore references so we can benefit next year."

You're gonna let everyone study like this next year anyway, right? and Wilfried laughed nicely.

Exactly. Even if I am caged in a library, we need an environment in which we can achieve results in mutual cooperation, so if we succeed in this, we intend to do the same next year.

"Okay. Let's make it for sophomore year."

"Uhm."

And after dinner, it's a bath, but I have an advanced ceremony and a rapport tomorrow, so I decide to use a phosphor to clean my hair in my mind. When I asked for Linshan's preparation, Brunhilde made his face shine.

"This is really great, isn't it? Lady Rosemayne made this too, didn't she?

"Yeah, that's right. I asked the Gilberta Chamber of Commerce to make it."

Brunhilde enjoys the scent of the new Lincoln I have and exhales a sigh of admiration. Brunhilde also said he was a regular Lincoln user.

According to Brunhilde, factions and beauty and other fashions are different for women. Unlike two years ago, senior aristocratic women say most use phosphors regardless of faction.

"Aerenfest girl, wouldn't it be a insignificant fashion claim if everyone was cleaning their hair?

"I think it will. This much luster is rare. You won't notice if you're not interested, but if you're a woman, you should keep an eye out."

"Now let's split it up a little bit for the kids who don't have a third floor rinshan. Tomorrow we'll all be cleaning up and attending an advanced ceremony."

That's what me and Brunhilde are talking about, and the riserator who was preparing the bath with Richarda came to call me.

"It is I who will go to separate the phosphors. Lady Rosemaine, please take a bath."

The kids in the same room use a shared bath, so there's a little rinshan they really need. They say the leaselator takes the phosphor and tells them how to use it. She notices a lot.

"It might be a good idea to add matching hair decorations for everyone next year. Shape and color to match each hair."

By deciding to transmit the epidemic one by one, Brunhilde had already begun to think about it until next year.

"That's nice. But can you buy the same thing from a lower aristocrat as me?

"... it's hard to align the shapes. But it's a bad idea to align the colors. Hair colors are different, so the colors that suit you are different."

"Let's think about it by next year"

When Brunhilde and Richarda helped me finish the bath, the reseller was already back. Hear the reaction of dispensing the phosphor while drinking the fruit juice that the reseller was preparing for me.

"The girls, who had never used it before, were intrigued to use a phosphor"

"You can also use a leaselator or filine, so please clean it up"

"I'm afraid so."

After the bath I was studying with Filine until bedtime. While teaching Philine to study, to be precise, she was putting together a reference book for her sophomore year, as Wilfried told her. We will definitely need a reference book for everyone to study next year.

And the next day.

Boys are surprised at the breakfast seats to round their eyes that the hair of all female students is tight and pimply overnight. "What the hell are you thinking?" To Wilfried I laughed, uh-huh.

"It's an insignificant claim of epidemic transmission."

"Where does it bother you? You're insisting!

"I don't plan to do anything at the moment other than this, so I think it's a insignificant claim. Next year, we're planning on adding matching hair decorations."

As for me personally, I'd like to start disseminating the fashion by selling books, but I'm also willing to keep some more secrets, given my grades. If Aerenfest's performance improvement committee activities are well on track, I want to decide to sell the book.

It would be better to go a little bit from beauty, clothing and gastronomy to fashion transmission from Aerenfest. This area must be easy to accept, just as the Lincians were accepted by women regardless of their faction.

"I hope you're thinking about it better, but don't be too fancy. But even they stand out on the outside."

"... Yes"

At the end of breakfast, you will have to head to the auditorium by the 3 bells, so you will look familiar, dress properly with your cape and brooch and be able to get out of the dorm. Without the cape and the brooch, they won't be able to go back to the dorm either.

"Dear Rosemayne, the rapprochement takes place basically on a class by class basis because of the large number of people. Select three escort knights, one civilian and one sideline from the side."

A friendly society for each class means that me and Wilfried are going to a friendly society with lord candidates and royalty. It will be as easy as possible to consolidate it with senior classmates who know who he is in senior aristocracy and the House of Lords.

"Then the escort knights are Angelica, Cornelius and Leonore. Civilian is Haltmoot, side service takes Brunhilde"

"Yes, sir."

Having finished my preparation, I rode the horseman as usual.

Upon arrival in the entrance hall of the dorm, Brother Cornelius tells me to get off the horseman. They say they're not allowed to ride horsebacks in the House of Lords building. Although the House of Lords is such a huge lot that it seems perfectly fine for riding outside.

"If a freshman who's just enrolled is on an unfamiliar form of horseback, we'll stand out evil."

"Right. Even though Rosemaine has a young appearance. Better not stand out any more."

"But if the distance to the auditorium is too long, I can't walk, can I?

I also think it is evil to be carried up to my side of the service.

"It's close to the auditorium, so it won't be a problem. The lecture will also be held initially in the auditorium or in a large classroom close to the auditorium, so it seems fine. If it really doesn't seem possible, Hartmoot or I will carry you. 'Cause it's less conspicuous than Lord Rosemayne's horseback."

Everyone assembled in the entrance hall. It has a matching cloak and brooch on the black based costume, so even if the costume is designed differently, there is quite a sense of unity.

I began to walk with the front door of the dorm open and the surroundings surrounded by sides.

Beyond the front door, it was like a hallway, not outside. Looking around, there is a door a little further away, from which the children with their watery capes come out in various ways.

"These 13 doors. This is the door to the Aerenfest dorm. Be careful not to make mistakes. It won't open the door to another realm, and once it's forgiven for mistakes, but if you try to force it to open too many times, you could be seen as harassing or attacking and caught."

To the words of the upper classmate, the freshman nods with a strange face. This number 13 is the order in which it was given out of last year's grades and territorial influence, and it changes every year and is closely related to life in the House of Lords, he said.

"This ranking says things about the order of greetings, seating, etc."

As we walked down the hallway, the number of people coming out of the door also increased. Every time I walk, the number on the door gets smaller. And it seems we have to give way to the smaller number of students, who are kept waiting until they all come out of the door.

... The cloak here is deep green.

Walked down the hallway, roughly 2,000 students were gathered in the auditorium. There aren't as many as 70 Aerenfest in the smaller middle territories in all grades, but they say the larger territories have more people and some more than 150. On the contrary, it seems that there are some places where there are not 50 people in the least.

Stand where instructed and wait for the advanced ceremony to begin. I am not noticeable because I am buried in the vicinity of the surrounding area, nor can I see what is going on around me, other than the cape of Aerenfest. Maybe from the top, it must look well color-coded.

"This year also saw the opening of drilling venues for children and others responsible for the future of Jürgenschmidt. Be recognized as a nobleman of Jürgenschmitt, so as not to fail in their efforts to increase the influence of the territories to which they belong"

I guess they say the same thing every year. The upper classmates look fed up.

At the end of the words celebrating the advancement, precautions about lectures were now mentioned, etc. Sound system magic equipment seems to be used, and I don't see any teacher-like people stating it in various ways, but only my voice sounds solid.

It's a common lecture during first and second graders, so they're going to do it all together in this auditorium. The freshman year will be sitting in the morning using the auditorium, and in the afternoon another classroom or teacher will be attached to each identity to perform practical skills. He said the lower grades will change the classroom if they pass the exams and the number will keep decreasing.

The advanced ceremony ends with an explanation from the teacher. The important thing, he said, is a rapprochement after this. It's a place to interact with students from other territories. It's the same as going out into the social world. Failure is not tolerated.

"From now on, we will move to the venues of our respective rapprochement, but to act as solidly as possible in those of our territory. At every venue, upper classmates should take care of freshmen. Freshmen don't know anything, so follow what your classmates say."

"Yes."

In reply to the words of the most senior students, he split nearby with junior nobles, intermediate nobles, senior nobles, and, to a lesser extent, lord candidates. Exiting from the auditorium also seems to be in numerical order, leaving the large group.

When we left the auditorium, we were divided into our own venues by the leadership of our superiors. They say it's the small hall where the Lordship Candidates head.

"From 13th Aerenfest, we had Wilfried and Rosemayne"

With the voice of a man like a civilian standing before the door, we were passed into a room called the small hall. If you see a slightly larger table at the front, and that's all that's special, you can tell it's the royalty sitting there.

Although I can't see his face well from here, I do believe that the fifth prince, who won the coup d 'état, took office and that second prince was enrolled as the finest student, whose name should have been Anastasius......

With only one year of overlapping enrollment, you won't be the first to get involved. It won't be a problem if you just remember the name, the clergyman told me.

... It's easy to say that the Chief Cleric is only a name, but none of the royal or aristocratic names are long and hard to remember! No more!

As I complained in my heart, I looked around in the hall and the four-man table was prepared at equal intervals. Seeing where the seats have been buried for a long time, I guess this is in order too.

"... what's that little one?

"Looks like the kid got lost."

The gaze of curiosity and a funny voice concentrated towards me. I can see Wilfried standing next to me chewing his back teeth in a gut. There are only those who stand above us in this. I can't even complain. He is the only one who can stand it in silence.

"Aren't we in the wrong place to come?

I turn to my table while I hear such a mockery. Brunhilde pulled me a chair, and I sat there. A civilian sits next to me, flanking and escorting stands behind me. The other tables are the same.

"Dear Rosemaine, this way, please. You'll need it when you say hello."

When I got to my seat, Hartmoot said so in a whisper that only I could hear, and he gently gave me the folded paper. Drop your gaze and you'll see that this is a canning paper with the order of the territories and the colour of the cape and the names of the Lordship candidates this year.

I honestly helped because I was made to remember the color of the cape and the name of the territory, but I didn't know the exact order of the territories this year, and I didn't know the name of the freshman lord candidate on this occasion.

"Helpful, Haltmoot"

"I'm afraid so. After this, Master Rosemaine greets the royalty and goes around saying hello to a territory that is higher than herself. The inferior comes to greet. You'll see what happens to the people who do it first."

When all the lord candidates of all the territories are in place, the door closes. And then the greeting began.

The Lordship Candidate of the Greater Territory of Classenburg, which is considered to be the most influential, rises up, takes his side and greets the royalty. When that's over, I'll take my seat.

The next person to rise was Dunkelferger of the Great Territories. They greet the royal family and the Lords' Candidate of Classenburg and return to their seats.

"... Even though Arlensbach is a big territory, is it 6th?

"We have lost influence in the last few years. It seems like a lot of things are going on inside, but it's hard to get the information in."

That's what Haltmoot groaned. They say it's hard for the inferior to explore the superior situation.

Arlensbach's vine-colored cloak began to move. At the head was a fluffy blonde girl. Is that Georgine's youngest daughter? I drop my gaze softly on the canning paper that Haltmoot gave me.

...... Dietrinde.

Dietrinde turned this way after finishing his greeting to the royal family. Although the atmosphere looks different because of her blonde hair, her face and eyes are very similar to Georgine's.

For a moment, I felt my eyes meet.
