Ascendance of a Bookworm

The day after the territorial rivalry is graduation ceremony. The Aubs will stay in their respective rooms, but the other parents will return to Aerenfest once.

... I thought a few people were coming to watch the game with reason.

It's hard to use magic to transfer day after day, so it seems that the guardians of intermediate, lower aristocracy do not come to the territorial rivalry unless they understand that there is so much show for my child, or that the child who wants to marry is the child of another realm.

Angelica's father wants to see the sword dance tomorrow rather than today's ditter battle, and he's going to get a day off tomorrow to do it. By the way, Angelica's mother came to the House of Lords with me today because she is a sidekick to her adoptive mother, and she watched the Ditter game. Lieselator said you're supposed to get the day off tomorrow.

... One Angelica among the truly brilliant flanking families is a knight's tour.

The graduation ceremony begins with three bells. In the morning there will be performances such as the service dance and the sword dance, and the temple chief will come from the central temple to bless him. Either the mitzvah hue is strong, I would say.

And in the afternoon, adult graduates gather in the auditorium dressed up for a graduation ceremony.

"Tomorrow I'm leaving you in the dorm, right?

That's what I asked the Cleric Chief in the multi-purpose hall after dinner. The chief cleric also said he was staying in the House of Lords, so he wonders if he will also be my watchman tomorrow.

"The blurred faces of important people coming to graduation are the same as they are today. Attendance makes no sense at all.... Aren't you dissatisfied with reading books in the dorm?

"I'm happy to read, but I wanted to see Angelica's sword dance and Eglantine's devotional dance."

I know there's no way I could just attend the graduation ceremony in the absence of a territorial rivalry, but I'm very concerned about Angelica's sword dance, which I couldn't see at all because the real Master Eglantine and the place of practice were different. Because I know it's only one time.

"At the very least, I wish I had a 'video camera'..."

"What, is that?

"It's something that you can keep in view of the sword dance and the service dance and watch later on in the video.... right. You must have had the magic equipment that Dr. Hirschühl used in his lecture, right? Is it easy to understand when it comes to moving and seeing things like that?"

As I told him, thinking of what he had explained, the chief clergyman laid down his shoulders lightly.

"If you're a projection magic device, Dr. Hillsur should have it. I have made it for use in lectures. You use magic like an idiot when you use it, so it should have been stored just once, but if you transfer your magic to Demon Stone and get it running, if it's just sword dance and service dance, you can handle it?

"Is it true!?

... did you already have the magic equivalent of a video camera!

Oh, and touched, as I looked up to the Cleric Chief with anticipation, the Cleric Chief looked terribly bitter and took Ordonanz's demonic stone in his hand.

"The immediate problem is that Dr. Hirschühl will know I'm coming to the House of Lords, but if I'm going to keep you quiet, I can't help it. Keep your magic in this magic stone. [M] If it's not enough, we can cut it on the way."

With that said, the Chief Cleric flew over to Hillsur in Ordnants to ask if he could borrow the magic equipment for the film. I will gladly let them do the battery business. Grasp the Demon Stone and put your magic into it.

... Ugh, uh-huh. I can see the sword dance and the service dance.

I was wondering if it was time for your reply, and instead of Ordonanz's reply, Hillsur himself jumped into the dorm with a bunch of magic equipment and materials.

"Dear Ferdinand, if you were here, why didn't you contact me sooner!? I have a mountain of things to discuss in my returning materials!

"That being said, I dared not, because I was about to leave the territorial rivalry unattended. I'm out of time, Dr. Hillsur. Does this magic trick still work?

The clergyman took the magic equipment that was in Hirschühl's hands and began to tease him.

"You say you're going to need a lot of magic, and now you're going to use the sorcery you throw out for what?

"There is a need to film the sword dance and the service dance tomorrow. Magic power is provided by Rosemaine, so no problem.... Oh, it works fine. As always, I was impressed by the fact that I seem to be taking care of my magic equipment. That's how much I'd like you to raise your report."

The chief cleric seemed to have overheard the words, and Hirschühl began to spread the material on the spot.

"It's a magic tool from the library, but it's a bunch of predictions that came up that I was arguing with a bunch of researchers in today's territorial rivalry. Someone is studying royal magic equipment in the center, and I was wondering if this part would include a magic formation about the God of Life. Looks like you've seen the same connection before. It just didn't work out for the magic team that I remember better."

"Hmm, that's interesting. What kind of magic was it?

The Mad Scientists gathering began to thrive, and the civilians look at the two with an intriguing, but completely incomprehensible face.

And when I had finished magic upon the magic stone, I withdrew gently from the place. I'd rather read the book that the Chief Cleric brought to me because of it than talk about the magic formations that I don't understand. Go back to your room and read a book, take a bath and go to bed.

And the next morning.

When I finished breakfast and headed to the multi-purpose hall, the two of them were still discussing it in the same condition as last night, with more written material.

Standing so that Brother Eckhardt can bring it to the wall on the face of it. Looks like the sheriff's escort knight will also have to accompany the research story all night. Maybe this was the day-to-day landscape during the House of Lords of the Clerical Chiefs?

"Good morning, Master Ferdinand, Dr. Hillsur. Were you both still talking? Shouldn't we have about breakfast?

"Oh, Rosemaine. It's morning. Dr. Hillsur, today is graduation. I think it's better to end this way."

"... is it graduation? Because of this, the research is going to feel good."

The clergyman shook his head with a frightened look when he heard Hillsur say it in earnest regret.

"Be patient today or so. They used to mourn me for not having my cauldron, but have you found a promising disciple?

"Yep. I couldn't quite find it, but I have a promising student in my sophomore year this year. It's an intermediate aristocrat close to a lower aristocrat, and it's a shame it doesn't have much magic, but for that matter, it's very good in terms of improvement."

The chief cleric was genius in his ideas and focus, and although he had created a number of magic implements, he said there were a lot of magic implements that only he could use because of the massive amount of magic. It seems that students who are likely to be new disciples are either unable to use such clergyman's magic equipment with less magic, or are into studying it.

"This is how I can talk to each other, and I get a new disciple, and I spend my days feeling nostalgic and happy time back. Mr. Ferdinand said that on the day he was graduated, he was going to live a boring and depressed life, but did he have any good times since he got back to Aerenfest?

Hirschühl's expression became the face of a master worried about his disciples from a research string of mad scientists. In the words of the master, rarely does the chief cleric get stuck in words for a moment. And I narrowed my eyes in horrible nostalgia.

"We have a time that is never boring, far from boring"

"I was a little relieved to hear those words. Ferdinand's new magic tricks, research, romance stories, whatever, I'm waiting for you."

Hirschühl said that and had to collect the materials, he just headed to the dining room. They have to eat breakfast and rush to get ready for graduation.

And then Yustokus came out of the dining room, making sure he was replaced with Hirschühl.

"Dr. Hillsur says they'll have breakfast, but what will Master Ferdinand do? Again, do you prioritize hypnotic sleep?

"Oh, I want you to wake me to two and a half bells"

"Yes, I did. Good night.... shouldn't Eckhardt take a little sleep too? It's been a long time since I've been with those two, hasn't it?

I slept tight because I was attached to Traugot, but Yustkus shrugged and resentfully followed after Brother Eckhardt stared Yustkus.

"How did Justkus get out of the dining room?

"Oh, while I was serving Traugot, Dr. Hillsur came in, so I thought you'd finally opened up."

"... so Traugot isn't left alone right now?

"Yes, but given the priority, I can't help it"

Justkus said so and clasped his shoulders, returning to the dining room.

"Perhaps the primary victim is Traugot."

"I'm getting a little pathetic," murmured Eudit.

When the students who finished breakfast began to gather in the multi-purpose hall little by little, the graduate parents came in the transfer formation. Then, by the waiting side service apprentices, each child will be guided to his or her own room. Because I have to help you prepare for graduation. Would it be more appropriate to say that I have to check with my parents' eyes for deficiencies?

"Father, Mother"

"Dear Rosemaine, I'm out of time. This time..."

I glanced at me before my daughter, Lieselator, and straightened my shoulders to the appearance of Angelica's parents, who were about to greet me.

"I don't mind a long greeting. I don't have time for anything today. Lieselator, show your parents to Angelica's room as soon as possible. Angelica will surely be troublesome and out of control, so keep an eye out for the three of us. My orders."

The preparation of the sword dance is perfect. But the preparation of the ensuing outfit is appropriate, the hairstyle is determined with the highest priority of the sword dance, the glamour is not considered at all, or there are too many anxiety elements for Angelica.

If there are three more excellent sides of service: parents and sister, you won't be able to get out of hand or anything.

"Yes, sir."

That's what Lieselator says, he takes his parents out of the multi-purpose hall. Now Angelica has no problem.

Now, nodding, Darmuel came for some reason. I look around the multi-purpose hall and come to me and kneel at the same time as my eyes meet.

"Dear Rosemayne, I'm here now."

"Why is Darmuel here?

"We had an urgent request last night from Master Ferdinand. He said he'd leave the escort assignment to most of the neighbors at graduation."

It also seemed on schedule that myself and Brother Eckhardt would take a nap as we would be arguing with Hirschühl.

"Well, you'll all be fine getting ready for graduation."

I give my voice to my escort knight apprenticeship. Each begins to move to prepare.

"Darmuel, is the castle any different? How is your uncle?

"... very. You are very well. He came aboard the Knights and discussed the apprenticeship education with Knights executives."

I think the apprentices have had a tough time since spring, Dermuel muttered. My uncle seems very motivated, above all.

When two and a half bells rang, it immediately came to my attention that Yustokus was going to wake the clergyman. After all, Traugot's drop-off is left behind.

"Richarda, whatever it takes, it's pathetic, so stick with Traugot."

"If Master Rosemaine has any other side service attached, we can't do it now that everyone's about to leave."

That is what Richarda tells me, and I nod small. I can't help it if you tell me I can't.

The graduates and all the non-graduate escort students left the dorm. They'll be ready for the auditorium by the time the lead graduate enters.

A little while after the students went out, the clergyman came to the multi-purpose hall. Yustox and Brother Eckhardt are with us. However, I looked lightly at Brother Eckhardt in his unfamiliar dress.

"... Brother Eckhardt today is a rare outfit for escort duty. Can I help you?

"You have to escort Angelica. It can't be a knight's armor, can it?

"Yeah!? Does Brother Eckhardt do Angelica escorts!?

When I looked to my surprise, Brother Eckhardt also looked to his surprise.

"You didn't know? Normally, who escorts would be the subject of discussion in the dorm?

"My sister Lieselator seemed to know, but nobody else seemed to. A lot of people wondered who they would be, but since Angelica only tilted her neck, she had a dedicated reputation for maybe deciding from relatives without even knowing herself. When the hell were you getting along like that?

Even yesterday Brother Eckhardt was with the Cleric Chief, but if he had never spoken to Angelica intimately, he wouldn't have had anything to look at. No matter what you saw from anywhere, you didn't look like you were in love.

"... because we're not that close. Since his uncle took Angelica as his disciple, he wanted to be associated with someone in his body, and he hadn't really made up his mind until he was critical. Maybe I really don't know Angelica. I'll leave it to your master, because he hasn't said anything."

... definitely a thought renunciation after I leave it to my uncle.

"It was my uncle's hope that Angelica and we would get along, so this winter has been tough."

Bringing Bonifatius into contact with someone in his body is not an honor because he can relate to a clan that leads to a clan of lords, but it is completely different for Angelica, an intermediate nobleman. Besides, Angelica is strong as a knight but, given her character and social abilities, she is not suitable for the First Lady of senior aristocracy.

Apparently Angelica's parents were desperate to find their way out. But they did not have the power to overturn Bonifatius' decision.

After pondering the future of them in distress and Angelica, Mother said it might be best to daughter-in-law as the second lady of those of Bonifatius' grandchildren whose age is commensurate.

Angelica's parents pleaded with the Third Lady or so if possible, but that was not heard by Bonifatius and he managed to fold at the Second Lady for once.

"But it was a question of whose Second Lady to make it"

They initially planned to be Traugot's second lady. Apparently Angelica is still an unfortunate beautiful girl who hasn't thought about marriage or anything, and is only thinking about getting stronger, so it was thought that younger opponents would be better off than older opponents who would soon be asked to marry.

And the adults discussed that Traugot was going to be my escort knight, so it was just the right combination.

But Traugot resigned as my escort knight. It also resulted in buying the wrath of Bonifatius in a resignation close to dismissal, and at the same time, he said, he was rescinded of his beloved apprentice, Angelica's opponent.

Brother Eckhardt said it was very difficult for the clan council not only to retreat from Traugot, but also to re-decide Angelica's future opponent, whose graduation ceremony was imminent.

"We talked about who we're going to deal with next among our three brothers. It's Lamprecht and Cornelius from the beginning of the year. However, Lamprecht had previously said that it was better not to make a clear opponent until his problems with Arlensbach were cleared up, and Cornelius did not want to escort Angelica because he had a willing opponent. I ended up losing my wife, and it turned out I was fit."

Brother Eckhardt, who was adamant that he would not marry until the chief clergyman married him, finally thought that he would marry him, and struck Pong with his hand.

"If Angelica isn't willing to get married for a while, then Brother Eckhardt has the advantage of making sure you get away with marriage and your mother's novel for a while, too"

"That's what I'm talking about"

Brother Eckhardt nodded bitterly. Looks like we're not going to get married for a few years to come. In a way, maybe it's a good combination.

However, while Brother Eckhardt found advantages and accepted them on his own, Angelica doesn't seem to think of anything, and I'm more worried about this one.

"Thank you for waiting, Master Eckhardt"

Angelica's parents brought a well-supported Angelica into the multi-purpose hall. I could see Angelica putting together the blue of the Ryden shaft that represented strength. Similar to riding beast clothes, it is a culotto costume, even if it looks like a skirt. As a result of adulthood, the length is long enough to hide the shoes.

I am confused for a moment by the hair shape of an adult woman with her hair properly tied together. Angelica, wearing thin makeup, was so beautiful that I accidentally looked out for her, which I was usually used to seeing.

"Oh, you've finished this beautifully. I'm looking forward to that sword dance."

"If I can show you the best sword dance, I know."

Angelica, who laughs small with Brother Eckhardt, who takes Angelica's hand, was a diagram of seemingly worthy knights and shrewd princesses leaning in.

"Is Angelica good with Brother Eckhardt?

I asked Angelica, dressed in a sword dance costume, most openly. Angelica nodded cocklessly without straying.

"I said I would leave it to your master. I have no complaints whatsoever because this is an introduction from my master. Though I am sorry for Master Eckhardt. If I can continue to serve Lord Rosemayne, they can be anyone else."

... What an Angelic-like clean reply.

If that's what you think, Angelica's parents say, "What good is anyone? Extremely disrespectful to Master Eckhardt," he immediately scolds Angelica. And I appeal to Brother Eckhardt, "You may resign my daughter escort like this now..."

"That's what my grandfather scolds me for. Besides, it's more convenient for me to have a daughter who's not so interested in romance or marriage."

When the 3 bells ring, Brother Eckhardt escorts Angelica out of the dorm. With a magic stone filled with the magic equipment of the film made by the Chief Cleric and my magic powers.

"Please take a good photo of Angelica and the goddess of the light of the service dance, Master Eglantine, Brother Eckhardt"

I am still reading today. Darmuel is being used by the clergyman to organize the paperwork.

In the afternoon everyone will come back and have lunch. Then, the graduate checks and waits to see if there is any disturbance in the costume to go to the ceremony. Angelica, who performed the sword dance, has to change into a dress.

I'll be leaving as soon as I get dressed.

"Brother Eckhardt, come on, show me the sword dance and the service dance"

When I did, Brother Eckhardt gave the magic equipment to the Cleric Chief. They also need magic for shooting, but they're going to need a ton of magic to show them. Brother Eckhardt said he still has to escort Angelica to graduation after this, so he can't show it.

"I mean, are you keeping it?

"No, I don't need the magic of Eckhardt. Rosemaine, if you want to see it, you can copy it yourself. You just have to put magic into this magic stone."

"Yes!"

The chief cleric messes with the magic equipment and starts preparing for the mess. They need to be prepared to show it.

While the clergyman is preparing, a pair of graduates depart for the graduation ceremony, another pair.

Side service seems to be waiting in the tea party room if students from other realms escort. If the other side informs me of your pick up, I'll leave the front door. They're waiting for you there.

"Happy graduation, Angelica"

"I owe it to Lady Rosemaine to graduate from the House of Lords. It is I who must thank you. We appreciate it."

When Angelica knelt and drowned, both Angelica's parents and Lieselator knelt equally.

"Dear Rosemayne, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your family, your clan. It was with Rosemaine's dedication that Angelica was able to successfully celebrate her graduation today. I really appreciate it."

My parents seem to have an emotion for Angelica's graduation that I was prepared to drop out of school.

"Brother Eckhardt, would you like an Angelica escort? I think your brother's follow-up is great. Don't let Angelica borrow..."

"You don't have to worry so much. I do my part."

Brother Eckhardt stroked his head gently to reassure me, taking Angelica's hand and leaving.

Graduates leave, parents and lords leave, and the dormitories leave students unrelated to the graduation ceremony.

"Master Ferdinand, are you ready?

As I returned to the multipurpose hall, the chief cleric was nodding lightly. Students who seem to be interested in magic equipment are watching the magic equipment in the film.

"It will appear on this board, so reposition it in this way so that it is easy for you to see. Once in position, let the magic flow."

"Yes."

There is a metal plate about the size of A4 that is as rugged as a guild card and glows rainbow when it hits the light, adjusting its position and instructing the clergyman to shed magic.

When I let the magic flow as a delight, the footage began to appear on the metal plate. Ooh, and there's an exclamation coming from around.

"A sword dance. Wow."

"I've never known you to have such magic equipment."

"Rosemaine, show me too"

Wilfried drops by, and two sidekicks come around me to the gyoza.

To be honest, the images of the magic equipment in the projection are not so good. It's a color for once, but the resolution feels rough, and it doesn't even have a sound on it. It's just video.

Still, I'm so glad to see the sword dance and service ceremony I couldn't go see.

"Is this Steinluke?

"That's right. Angelica's sword dance takes place in Stynrook. One wave at a time, the magic splashes slightly, the body glows slightly blue, and it's beautiful."

Eudit, who respects and loves Angelica, tells me with a happy laugh. They say there are not so many people in the House of Lords who deal with demonic swords. He says none of them are intermediate aristocrats because they will need magic to grow and handle them.

Although Angelica's other female knights and participants in the sword dance were obviously more prominent than the others. Beautiful girls swinging freely around Stynrook, whose full body is glowing blue, have the charm of nailing people's eyes.

"That's brilliant."

Ha and exclamation sighing, the service dance began immediately. Apparently, Brother Eckhardt tried to save as much magic as possible. There is no aftertaste or anything, but I keep going and see the service dance.

Eglantine's hand moved loosely and the service dance began. The service dance is archaic to itself, so I can understand the music. Mumbling, I also saw Anastasius with Eglantine as I watched.

Did you also seriously archaic the service dance that you didn't think would go with Eglantine, quite like that.

... Prince Anastasius is improving.

I thought it was a little bit, even though it was a couple gods, so I'm so glad you improved and started to catch up with each other.

Looking at the two people smiling slightly at each other, also looking at each other on the way to this dance, how happy they seem and this one makes me happy and want to bless them.

... I'll bless you both together. May this happy smile continue.

"Rosemaine, get your hands off the demon stone!

"Yes?"

It was almost at the same time that I raised my face and the clergyman ran over with a change of complexion.

The chief priest grabs my wrist and raises it up so that it may be hail. At the same time, the light of blessing popped out of the ring and flew away somewhere.

"... what the hell did you think?

"Uh, I just thought, may Prince Anastasius and Master Eglantine's happiness last forever. Oh, I even thought about congratulating you."

The light of blessing flies now. The destination is set for the graduation venue. I could imagine a diagram of the sudden flying light of blessing pouring down on Anastasius and Eglantine. I feel like there's a commotion going on in the auditorium right now.

"... Dear Ferdinand, can you get back a blessing?

"It would be impossible to decide, fool"

"Right? Disturbance, will it happen?

"I don't know. But no matter what they ask, keep an unfamiliar face.... Everyone here, the blessing thing right now is out of mouth law. If you divulge anything extra, you'll see yourself dying."

Threatened by a flimsy, serious faceless look that doesn't make you feel any jokes or anything at all, the clergyman and the little knowledgeable students shudder and nod again and again.

"I had no idea this would happen, even though I was letting him leave a message... at all"

The chief cleric held his temples and exhaled a deep deep sigh.

... I'm sorry, Chief Cleric. But I didn't mean to.
