Ascendance of a Bookworm

"It was already the limit of patience. Now that I'm sporadically sweet and energized by Lutz, I can try again. Thanks."

"Keep it that way. We're going down."

Lutz slapped my forehead in the face.

I can't take the magic equipment off yet, but the number of times I fall like I lose consciousness is definitely decreasing. I stretched my chest out.

"You should be getting a little tough, so you won't fall. of which"

"What's the word that only makes that anxiety!?

"I'm fine because I'm still recovering and I just haven't completely recovered. What about Touri? Does Touri look okay? I've got a job to do."

Both Otto and Benno gave me a stomached answer, but is the touri I actually make okay? When asked, Lutz imitated Touri's tone and spoke a little higher.

"Whatever it takes, it's too steep! Ridiculous, ridiculous! Because..."

"Ooh, sorry, Touri"

"And then he said," This is my chance, and I'm gonna make something absolutely amazing, so wait. "

With a puffy mouth, angry, but still carefully made Touri in my eyes, my cheeks loosen.

... I knew it was our Touri, Seriously Angel!

"Lutz, Lutz. Tell Tulli I love him too."

"I don't like that"

"Why!?

Rejected instantly, when I blinked, Lutz turned into a very bitter face.

"While I'm coming to the orphanage to learn how to behave, they think I'm dating Thuri from around me. In that, such a message, I never want to say."

"What, Lutz is unhappy with our Touri? You should be happy with the rumors. 'Cause it's Touri, right?

As I pointed my lips, Lutz chopped a wrinkle between his brows and shook his head.

"I don't like it. I don't want to buy extra jealousy."

"You buy jealousy? I knew it was a touri? That's my touri! You're being beautiful, aren't you? I want to see you."

I haven't seen Touri's, our family's face since I woke up yet.

"You'll see me when I get my hair decorated, won't you? Touri said he wanted to give it to you and ask for your opinion. Later, Camille wants toys again."

"I definitely have to make that! What kind of toy would you like? Some new picture books, right? If it's time to learn how to write, is there a carta? Order a board from Ingo's workshop? Or do you want to use Irkner's paper?

Dilk, who was a walking baby in an orphanage, was likely to be a child for collection. While I sleep, Kamil must be getting bigger too.

Lutz caught my face when I was thinking about a toy that my 4-year-old or so seemed to enjoy.

"...... yuck. Could it have failed? Hey, the first thing you think about is paper making and printing. Don't get me wrong about priorities."

"Huh? Kamil's not the best?

"You've decided no!

"Yeah, I know. Just saying.... this kind of hanging is good, right? Horrible."

The demon stone in the door of the hidden room glowed as he laughed more at him. It tells us that there is a presence of those who are trying to open it on the other side. Even knocking completely blocks the sound, so the Demon Stone is glowing to let visitors know.

Confirming that I had settled away from Lutz, Gil moved to open the door. It was Fran, Benno and Marc who were in front of the open door.

"Lady Rosemaine, Lady Benno and Lady Marc of the Plantan Chamber of Commerce have arrived"

... Huh? Why is that?

Look at me for leaning my neck unintentionally, lowering my gaze just a little as Fran seems to have difficulty saying.

"Because of the emergency, it was in the clergyman's letter that he called the Plantan Chamber of Commerce, so he called the Plantan Chamber of Commerce, not Lutz. Sorry, sir."

"... is that right? It's not Fran's fault, so you don't have to be sick."

I showed with my hands to fall back gently to Fran, and looked up to Benno and Marc, who had heard of an emergency and had changed their complexion.

"What the hell is the emergency!?

At the same time as the door closes, Benno asks in a spit-flying momentum. I answered honestly as I hid behind Lutz unexpectedly in the momentum. "I missed Lutz because I had a bad dream where contract magic ran out and I was anxious," he said.

"Kon's... dumb!

"Geez! Come on!

Pulled out of the back of Lutz by Benno with his eyes hoisted, his head swirling fast with angry fist bones. Of course, there's no sign of stopping with anger. No one can stop me.

"We had a discussion at the castle. It's an emergency call the next day! Wow, what is it, I had a bad dream!? It won't be urgent or anything!

"Mentally, I couldn't do it anymore! The magic was about to burst, so the sheriff said it was an emergency, so I contacted him!

"Ah, speaking of which, my eyes were a little weird when I arrived."

I heard Rutz's words. I stopped the hand Benno was wrapping his head around. Then he peeks into my face and exhales tired sighs after pulling harder through his cheeks.

"... have you settled down yet? Then we'll go home."

"Wait a minute. I'll talk to you, too. You can't just call it in early in the morning and sweeten it as much as you want, can you?

After a look at Benno and the others were here, I will explain the discussions that took place in my foster father's office. When Marc darkened his grin when he reported that I had acquired the right to civic training so that the Gutenbergs would not be crushed by unscrupulous gestures. He had a very difficult time negotiating with his mother that he could build a printing workshop right now.

"Good luck? Helpful? Praise me. Come on!"

Ugh, and as soon as I strained my chest, I ate a bissi cock pin from Benno, who glanced at me.

"Ahhh!... Why!?

"If I complimented you, I'd be on track, 'cause I felt like I was going wild"

"No! When you're angry, you get angry with your fist bones, so praise me properly when you praise me! Isn't it weird to work hard and feel painful!

"Uh, okay, okay"

All right, well, as you say like a bar read, Benno stroking slightly with force is an earlier cock pin trail. It hurts plain.

I swelled my cheeks softly and said, "It's badly handled, Mr. Benno! Complaining," Lutz exhaled lightly, clapping his shoulders.

"I'm complaining to my husband, but his face is burning. Anyway, you're glad we can't have this kind of interaction between nobles, right?

Lutz is pointed out with a laugh, and I am stuck in words. Exactly. I'm glad I miss this kind of interaction. Benno and Marc shook their heads like they were stunned laughing at it.

"So, we're talking about a civilian, how do we train who?

"I'd be in trouble if I wasn't someone who could talk to the civilian population to some extent, but I, I hardly know any aristocrats who could be entrusted with the job, do I? Does anyone have any idea?

When I asked, Benno and Lutz said with all their voices, "Would it be all right, Master Justkus?" Justkus was quick to work and unlike the senior nobles of Haldenzel, he listened to the opinion of the Plantan Chamber of Commerce and the story was so good that he was able to operate without any problems while I slept.

"I wish I could have done that, but I was told that Justkus was a clergyman, so he couldn't lend it to me."

It is regrettable that permission was not granted by the Chief Cleric. Marc raised his hand gently to speak as he thought I would ask him to do it again.

"It seems that the guild chief, who knows a lot of nobles, knows nobles who are easy to talk to and nobles who are not bad per capita. Wouldn't it be more horny than recommended by the Plantan Chamber of Commerce, which is jealous of rapid growth?"

With that said, Benno laughs bitterly that you're going to turn the trouble over to the guild leader. It's the right material, and Marc flushed it with his usual smile.

"Then ask the guild chief to look after the candidate. I'll ask my adoptive father to turn some of them around. And then, this is your mother's suggestion, that if you're an aristocratic deputy with land, you know civilian life, and to moisturize your land, you'd study hard. What was it like in Haldenzel? Was there a nobleman you could talk to?

I have not yet been to Haldenzel, but both Lutz and Benno should have been working in Haldenzel with the Gutenbergs. How was the person named deputy as a civilian?

"... only my husband and Damien met Geebe Haldenzel, and we were led to the town by his men. Was that guy a civilian? Unlike here, there was some interaction between nobles and civilians."

"If you're not a senior aristocrat, but a deputy about an intermediate, no, lower aristocrat, can we still talk...?

Irkner apparently lacked the nobility to be able to deputize, so Geebe Irkner came into the paper mill himself, even checking his progress. They made me do my job quite as I liked it in Ilkner, but it didn't seem to go that way in Haldenzel.

"Haldenzel is living in an extremely cold place that makes it harder for people to live with a little less blessing. Tough on the rest of us, or that we can hardly get our opinions heard... Once you accepted me, it was early."

He said it took a long time to accept a new job, a new way of doing things. Speaking of land patterns, that's it, but they had trouble getting the job going.

"... in the spring, I guess I'll also build a paper mill in Haldenzel..."

Lutz said that, and, um, he roared in his arms.

"What's wrong?

"Haldenzel is less of a tree than Ilkner, isn't it? I wasn't sure if there were any trees suitable for paper making, and now it's far from Aerenfest and Ilkner, so buying paper would be expensive, but if I could have some paper mills on the north side than Aerenfest, I feel like I should try to buy them from there. After that, we'll build a workshop as far south of Haldenzel as possible."

"Hmm, I'll suggest it to Geebe Haldenzel next time"

"You better listen to what you propose than we propose. I asked for it."

"Okay. And then, Mr. Benno. It's the duration of my stay in Gutenberg..."

From the printing business to the family story, to anything else that matters or nothing, I smile and break up with the Lutz and head back to the temple chief's office.

"I forgive you because you weren't totally wasting your legs," the three people who got the information from me shouted, returning to the Plantan Chamber of Commerce.

"The chief cleric told me to show my face this afternoon."

When I went back to the temple chief's office, Tharm said so. The chief cleric must be worried about Master Rosemaine too, and he said, I saw the leather bag that had been brought. With gratitude, should I turn all the demon stones in this into gold sand for you?

"I feel relieved that Master Rosemaine's complexion has returned"

"I'm sorry to bother you"

Monica says so, and is starting to support her lunch. Looks like he was talking to the Lutz more than he thought he would.

After lunch, in the clergyman's room. I drove my appointments crazy early in the morning and I was supposed to go back to the temple, so I might be pissed off. In awe, I go to the priest's chamber.

With a deep wrinkle carved between my brows, I immediately apologized to the clergyman who looked at this one.

"I apologize for the inconvenience, Chief Cleric"

"Not at all. … but you seem to be ready."

"Thanks to you, we lost the anxiety element and replenished it with plenty of energy"

"Was that useful?

To the clergyman who pointed to the leather bag in his hand, I thanked him and returned the leather bag.

"Thank you. I know. I was surprised at the sheriff's readiness."

"... seems to be enough and above all. Still, how the hell was it hoarding? I'm glad it didn't explode in the castle, but you don't have to rely on the Plantan Chamber of Commerce to figure it out."

I looked in the leather bag and said so as the clergyman caught his face all the time.

"Me, I'm feeling better, so I'm going to do my best to spread the book!

"It's often excessive when you work hard, so be able to move within your limits."

"... Ugh. Now, what is the determined range?"

As it stood, in the Cleric Chief's room, a meeting was to be held for a meeting with Geebe Haldenzel.

Since the contract magic has been dissolved, permission to open a paper mill will now be given out of Aub Aerenfest. That's why they say face-to-face is the main thing this time.

It seems that what I have to discuss with Geebe Haldenzel is when and for how long I will send the Gutenbergs to Haldenzel. He also reported to the Clerical Chief what had been decided in his earlier discussions with Benno.

After finishing his meeting with the chief cleric, he left Ella at the castle to come, so in the evening he returned to the castle. I had dinner with Charlotte, who welcomed me and worried about my health, while Richarda pointed her lips at the busy schedule, "I finally got time, so I could have taken it slower.

Two days later, in the afternoon, it was decided that there would be a meeting with Geebe Haldenzel, who would be summoned by his guardian, the Chief Cleric, to go with him to the room for the meeting.

The room for visiting senior aristocrats was a little more luxurious than the one I had used in previous interviews. The tapestry is colorful and the furniture looks good with the season. In a room like that, Mr. and Mrs. Geebe Haldenzel and their mother were waiting.

When I and the Chief Cleric were seated, Mr. and Mrs. Geebe Haldenzel came to greet me.

"Allow me to pray for blessings to the tough sorted and rare encounter of AVILLIBE, God of Life"

"I forgive you."

... Your mother and Geebe Haldenzel are alike.

The color of dark green hair and black eyes look very similar. Though he was smiling with a good-looking smile, his eyes were sharp and I could see him observing this one still. Someone who is kneeling and greeted but has a softer vibe that I can see at a glance standing over people and leading them, that I am more pressurized or compelling.

"I have finally been able to officially greet Master Rosemaine. I've always wanted to thank you."

Mr. and Mrs. Geebe Haldenzel came all the way to the Hall of Calstead for my baptism, but they were dragged by Vilfleet to retire before they exchanged greetings, early dispersed even when they revealed their blessings, and ended up in no formal contact because the following winter they had solidified with the Vilfleets and interacted with the nobility of the old Veronicans.

"... did I do anything to thank you?

"Yes, Hardenzel's life has been considerably easier since Lord Rosemayne became active in the Temple as Temple Chief... No, as a Blue Witch to be exact"

The arrival of a small chalice full of magic and increased production across Aerenfest also made taxes a little easier. A little of it, says Haldenzel, was a very big one.

According to what I learned in my study of geography within Aerenfest, Haldenzel is a land cold enough for the river to freeze and people live side by side. The land itself is vast, but they say it has a concentrated population to the south and few people to the north. And the hardest part, above all, is that the winter lord has a good chance of showing up.

"Dear Rosemaine, we have also received reports from the knights headed for the crusade from Haldenzel that the Lord's Crusade in Winter is also helping"

"The colour of the flag has returned."

Mrs. Geebe Haldenzel deepened her grin with a quiet look. The return of the colour of the flag in this case would have meant that the Head of State had stopped dyeing Arlensbach.

"Besides, Haldenzel has a long winter, so many people are helping by being able to start a printing business"

From there I received a report from Haldenzel on Gutenberg's activities.

In the workshop, which was prepared as a printing workshop, parts were brought in to demonstrate the assembly and printing of the printing press, but there was not enough civilians to say that they could read the letters at all. Rutz and the gray clerics put together metal typescripts and taught them how to do it, but the people of Haldenzel said it took them a lot of time because it was like fitting a pattern to put together metal typescripts as well.

"I was surprised that all Aerenfest craftsmen could read the letters. This winter is the best I can do because I will still make the technology taught to Gutenberg my own, but in the future I seem to have to remind myself of the letters. Because it's hard not to notice the typeface up or down."

"I used cartas and picture books in my orphanage to learn while everyone was playing, but if it seemed difficult to remember right away, maybe I could make a review of the letters a junior civilian or civilian apprenticeship job for a while"

Since books are for sale to noblemen, it's the Rosemaine workshop that cares most about whether the letters are wrong or not.

"I have heard that Gutenberg, raised by Master Rosemayne, is very well regarded among the craftsmen, even though he is young and has all the wonderful arms."

The ink workshop taught him how to make ink, and the woodworking workshop taught him how to make the wooden part of the printing press. Over the period of my stay from spring to autumn, I seemed to manage with regard to ink and woodworking, and I could print it if I put a civilian on it for calibration.

However, I have heard that the blacksmith workshop lacked skill and Johann did not pass due to a number of metal typescripts and parts. If I wanted to do printing, I would have trouble making metal typescripts. Typography is surprisingly rubbed down or missing while printing.

"Blacksmiths are working together to get a pass from Gutenberg in the spring," he said.

"The reports I received from the Gutenbergs said I didn't know if they were accepted in Haldenzel, but I was relieved that they weren't."

I mentioned reports and proposals from Gutenberg.

At Haldenzel, I hear the alertness to the Gutenbergs who went from Aerenfest was amazing at first. He was just listening with a difficult face, and he had a scarce reaction.

"I guess there was resistance to the craftsmen as there were few leftovers in Haldenzel and few new things coming into their lives. However, the inner body is very tightly bound to each other, and once accepted, it is a land pattern that will be protected with care. The residents who understand the blessings of printing technology will remember to take care of the favors received from Rosemayne, printing techniques, etc. I also know that I would like to hear from Gutenberg once in Haldenzel before giving an answer."

"You're going to build a workshop and start a new business, so try to get a good taste of what's best for Haldenzel. … Yet there are many differences among Aerenfest, depending on the pattern of the land"

The atmosphere seems quite different from that of Irkner. Although I have been around the whole Aerenfest at prayer ceremonies, I did not know so much about the difference in atmosphere that I just stepped down to the prayer ceremonial stage for just a moment to bless.

"In the spring we ask Master Rosemaine, along with Gutenberg, to take us to Haldenzel. You'll see it then. Even if the environment is harsh, the people of Haldenzel are proud to endure it."

In the laughter of Geebe Haldenzel, who boasts of his people, naturally I also smile. I guess it's good land, I thought. I felt like I could see a strong cohesive people around Geebe and Geebe trying to protect the people as much as possible from the harsh environment.

"I look forward to visiting Haldenzel, too"

"Geebe Haldenzel, Gutenberg can be dispatched to Haldenzel from the Spring Prayer Ceremony to the end of summer"

When the chief cleric opened his mouth, Geebe Haldenzel narrowed his eyes slightly as he explored the meaning of the remarks there. The Chief Cleric will now expand the printing workshop throughout Aerenfest, explaining that Gutenberg also needs a preparatory period to do so.

"There are a number of lands waiting for the dispatch of Gutenberg. I want you to consider sending Gutenberg to Haldenzel a special treatment this time."

"I see."

Geebe Haldenzel gently closes his eyes so that he can circle his thoughts. Then, after a little silence, he slowly opened his eyes and stared straight at me with pitch-black eyes very similar to his mother's.

"Dear Rosemayne, I feel very comfortable that you are in the upper echelons of Aerenfest. If she's Elvira's daughter, she won't take care of herself and scorn her hometown… I believe so"

"... I, I, sweet in my body, have told Ferdinand and my mother to fix it there."

It sounded as though I was being asked to treat my body favourably, and I turned my gaze perplexed to the chief cleric and to my mother. But both the clergyman and mother are just quietly waiting for the next word of Geebe Haldenzel.

When I turned my gaze back again, Geebe Haldenzel, who exhaled slowly when he said no, glowed his pitch-black eyes.

"We can create so many new things. There will also be many temptations from other territories in the House of Lords. Still, we hope you will think of your hometown, think of your family and stay at Aerenfest"

In the upper echelons of Aerenfest, he didn't mean to favor the inside, he didn't want to go out to other territories. Seemed to have misinterpreted the words again.

I exhaled softly.

When you ask me to think of my family, the face of the family that comes to my mind most of all is the family in the lower town. In the touch forbidden by contract magic, the hair decorative interaction, as an escort to Hasse, the slightly remaining thin connection cannot be made unless I am in Aerenfest. As long as I have a family, I'm not leaving Aerenfest.

"… it is Aerenfest that has my family. Unless you have orders from Aub Aerenfest, this is where I'm going."

When I proclaim so, Geebe Haldenzel softens his expression as if he were a whopping relief.

At the same time, it appeared at the edge of his sight that the chief cleric had carved a deep wrinkle between his brows.
