Ascendance of a Bookworm

Whatever it takes, there won't be water cannons on the weapon. Pisces Pisces and water don't become weapons with toys that just erupt.

... all I need is a weapon to protect myself!

"Master Rosemaine, what is in your hands? Is that a weapon?

It was Rufen who responded best to Hannelore's voice when he saw the water cannon I gripped. He comes at such a rate of reaction that I think he will be standing ear to ear all the time that he stops his eyes on the water cannon in my hand.

"Said it was Master Rosemaine's new weapon!?

"No! It's not such a big deal. It's a kid's toy."

"No, no, there's actually a tremendous weapon when I say children's toys...... I want you to test your power."

Due to the loudness that Rufen emits, attention is drawn from all around him. I want you to give me a break. My gaze hurts when I say, "What are you going to do this time?"

... There are plenty of people in your face who say you have something noisy besides amulets! It's not a mess! It's just a toy!

I'm sure the conversation we're having whispering about isn't a favorable one. I've already passed the deformity of Starp itself, so I want to keep running away and hide this body in the library.

"Come on, Master Rosemaine. Towards that enemy!

When it was ready, Rufen pointed to a few objects that were wrapped around with cloth. It would be the original test object for testing the performance of the weapon that deformed it. I see a boy who looks like a knight apprentice slashing him with a sword.

... more than that, you want me to stand next to that crisp, cool looking strong boy and shoot the water cannon purple? It's so cool, me!

I thought of myself so dumb, I shook my head unwittingly.

"So it's just a toy. This is not something that can be used as a weapon."

"Is that what you're going to say and hide your new weapon? That's Lord Ferdinand's beloved apprentice."

"I just don't need to show it, I'm not going to hide it"

"Well, I'd love to see it"

Rufen glistened his eyes and gripped his fist. If you look at your face and say "Yikes!" you can tell even if you don't like the fact that you have excessive expectations for water cannons.

If this happens, I'll have to show you. How water cannon is a useless toy as a weapon.

... because I'm going to dye that hopeful face with disappointment!

I stood in front of the exam subject of the cloth roll as the students watched this one faraway. There was so much silence that I could hear the gobbling and breathtaking noise that I could see the painful gaze being directed at me, precisely at the water cannon.

"Okay, let's go."

I set up a water cannon for the test object of the cloth roll. Only the erection is perfect. And I put my finger on the little trigger and pulled it all the way.

Pish, Pish!

Momentum popping up water does not reach the test object critically, making picturesque noises and falling to the floor. And at the same time as it fell, it glowed slightly and disappeared. It seemed to be my magic, not the water, which was stuck inside, even though it was a water cannon. Wouldn't it be a very nice water cannon without cleaning to disappear quickly?

"... what?

"Huh? Huh?

I was impressed with my water cannon, but there was a sloppy line of distracted faces around me. I shake my head like I don't understand the Pocan facial rufen.

"Um, Master Rosemaine, what the hell is this...? Doesn't look like a weapon..."

"So I thought you said it was a child's toy"

"... I'm afraid, what do you use it for?

"Right. Is it to surprise people a little?"

"I see. I'm very surprised"

Rufen dropped his shoulder with a rather dismaying face. Seeing Rufen sink into a sea of disappointment, I hope this will also eliminate Ditter's invitation, but I will undo the deformation of Sturp.

"Leuken."

When we ran out of water cannons at hand, everyone watching this one started practicing each one as if they had lost interest.

Exhaling relief at the scattered gaze, I return to where Hannelore is. There Hannelore had a slightly blue and troubled face.

"I'm sorry, Master Rosemaine. Because you thought I might be a new weapon, Dr. Rufen... Master Rosemaine said it was a toy from the beginning, and yet..."

Vilfleet forgives the grated Hannelore because it is not Hannelore's responsibility. Together I spoke to Hannelore.

"Dr. Rufen just made an early move. Lady Hannelore has nothing to lose."

"But..."

"Dr. Rufen just picked up Master Hannelore's words. It was a little bad."

"Well..."

It wasn't Hannelore's fault, he snorted with a slight grin at my words, which he complained so hard, but for some reason Hannelore seemed even more depressed.

Immediately the six bells rang and the lecture on deforming the Starp came to an end.

And after dinner, Wilfried summoned me and my side to make a report about what I had done in today's practice.

It is any good fortune that he surprised his surroundings by transforming it into a shield of Szeria and a spear of Rydenshaft with the practical skill of deforming the Starp, that the priest's amulet fought back against the Rufen, who tested the shield, and that he built a water cannon.

"Is it the spear of the Rydenshaft on the shield of Szczeria!?

"What is a counterattack in the exam...... you were fortunate to have Dr. Rufen as the examiner. If this was Dr. Fraurelm, it would have been tough."

Everyone starts staring stunnedly and saying what they think. Indeed, it was also surprising to me that the Amulet of the Chief Cleric was activated. Even now, I think it's good that Flaurelm, who is the enemy of something, is not the target.

"... you'll have to write a report to Aerenfest, and you'll have to be mine, Rosemaine."

Wilfried stares at me as he sighs. That being said, I remembered that the parents had their heads in Wilfried's nasty report last year. Has the writing of Wilfried and his civilian apprenticeship report improved?

"So shall I write on behalf of Brother Wilfried?

"You can't report anything that's inconvenient to you, can you?

"That's not true. I will only write the facts concisely and accurately."

disrespectful, and when I saw Wilfried, Brother Cornelius sighed deeply.

"Once you've reported the facts only concisely and accurately, you've also passed today's practical skills, won't you? I sincerely think that Master Wilfried was really good in the same grade as Master Rosemayne. Lady Rosemaine's report is too concise."

Brother Cornelius said so and looked at me. I don't care if they see me like that. I merely deformed it into a shield and a weapon, with the practical skill of deforming Starp into a shield and a weapon. "I also passed today's practical skills" What else do you have to report?

Parents know that I, who grew up in the temple, can only make Szerian shields, and water cannons were such a useless toy that Rufen was disappointed. It would also be necessary to report for research what reaction the clergyman's amulet had, but nothing else is notable.

"If you are dissatisfied with my report, shouldn't you report it if you want to? I didn't do anything that would bother me if I were reported."

"No, Rosemaine. I'm asking you not to let anything happen that you have to report."

It is Richarda who snorts deeply at the words of Wilfried.

But Haltmoot is rather happily blinking his eyes and embarking on a desire to hear more about it.

"It's wonderful, Master Rosemaine. I know that the shield of Szczeria deserves very much the spear of Rydenshaft, the Virgin of Aerenfest."

"Although bad for the touching Haltmoot, the spear is not user-friendly, so I will not use it on my weapon. I don't have enough power to throw it at the target."

When he defeated Schnetilm, he was thrown because he had the assistance of a cleric chief. Do that by yourself, and I can tell you with my chest up that I can never do it.

"It's a physical enhancement for that, Master Rosemaine."

"… Haltmoot, my physical strengthening is to lead a daily life"

Though I am able to walk as slowly as I can without auxiliary magic equipment, I am just small in body and tend to be left by others when I do something. Physical strengthening is essential to move at the same speed as everyone else.

"But we need weapons for times of need. If spears are hard to use, you'll need another weapon. What will you do?

"I also feel the need for weapons. Hopefully, with the beast riding from a distance, I'd prefer a weapon that can strike with one hand out of the beast window."

When I raised my terms about my ideal weapon, the knight apprentices looked at each other with an indescribable look.

"Is it a weapon that Master Rosemaine can handle with one hand?

"Can't you only hold about a dagger with both hands?

"Isn't Lord Ferdinand's amulet a weapon for Master Rosemayne?

The Guardian Knight Apprentices are not wrong. Because he has no expectation of my combat abilities, the Chief Cleric has decided he needs an amulet.

"Ha. Don't think about it anymore. I've already passed the exam, so Rosemaine's weapon should be my uncle's amulet. I'm done talking. I'll write down the report."

That became the closing word for the debriefing.

When I went back to my room and slept in the bedroom with a gobble, I began to think about my weapon, which I was told I didn't have to think about. The clergyman's amulet is powerful, but he also has trouble being able to fight on his own at all. Can you also think of a lot of enemies and a loss of amulets? I need a weapon that isn't a Lyden Shaft spear, it's not a toy.

"Maybe it would have helped if it had been a 'gun' instead of a 'water cannon' of toys..."

Mmm, I groaned as I conceived, and I hacked.

... Is that it? But I just said 'water cannon' then, didn't I? It wasn't a spell, was it?

You should need a spell to make a sword or a spear. If I could just resemble the shape, I could have done it when I created Starp. But as a sword, you must need a spell to make it work as a spear.

With my neck tilted, I try to squeal 'water cannon' again with my stamp in my hand. But Sturp didn't deform.

"Why? Oh, because I'm not imagining it?

Close your eyes gently and chant with a water cannon properly in mind behind your brain. Now it's the same water cannon as earlier. I mean, wouldn't it be a sword to whine 'sword' in Japanese if the image was even clear?

In an attempt to quickly demonstrate that hypothesis, I thought of the sword while holding a stamp and tried to say 'sword' in Japanese. But Sturp didn't change at all.

"Huh? Is this no good?

Even though swords, spears, and shields change if you cast a spell in the image of a divine object in the same way, it doesn't change in Japanese. I'm not sure about the legality. In the meantime, after trying a few things like "printing press," "photocopier," "scissors," all I could get out with a Japanese spell was this cheap toy water cannon. Maybe there's something else, but I don't know.

I tried shooting a few times with the translucent water cannon I eventually tried to get out, gobbling on the futon, but it's not real water. It disappears the moment it hits. Shooting on the futon won't make the cloth wet. And I'm even more concerned that no matter how much you shoot, the liquid inside doesn't decrease. Seems to work unless my magic runs out.

"... Can't you manage to enhance this' water cannon '?

It's easy to hold with one hand and just pull the trigger, so it passes where you can attack even if you're holding the handles on the lesser bus. It's not just water that's inside, it's magic, so there's no need to refill it. If we can manage the distance and power later, it could be a weapon.

"When I say weapon with water, watercutter? But how much hydropower is enough to kill? Um, it's hard to imagine. Why don't you just attack me with tons of water, like a fire truck hose? No, no, if that were the case, you wouldn't have to bother to modify the water cannon, you'd figure it out in Vashen."

I wave the water cannon in my hand as I scratch myself into that thing that comes to mind. The magic that can only be seen in the water inside the translucent water cannon shakes.

"It's not the water that's stuck inside, it's the magic, and can't you do it like the arrow the chief cleric was using? Like when I defeated Trombe, when I shot him like this, I shot him with an arrow..."

Pishhh! Zubabababah!

If I shot him, I'd be an arrow and fly away. If I shot him, I'd think he might be cool, and I'd be a real arrow. Besides, it's what I thought of the clergyman when the trombe was exorcised, so the arrows are splitting and poking at the tent surrounding the bedroom. The arrow, which was made of magic, pierced and then disappeared softly, but the holes empty in the tent did not disappear.

... to the arrow, you've become.

Looking up at the tent in surprise, Richarda, who had changed his blood phase, jumped in to make sure he jumped up the tent.

"Princess, what is it!?

"Huh? Uh..."

Looking at the figure with the water cannon standing, and the tent with the arrows disappearing but full of holes, it seemed immediately understandable what had happened to Richarda.

Sooner or later, Richarda's eyebrow butt rises, her eyes are excitedly opened and her eyes sharpen. Shortly after, Richarda's thunder fell.

"Princess! What do you mean to use Starp on your sleeping table!? Release the dangerous weapons that fill the tent with holes and give it a rest!

"I'm sorry! I'm going to bed now! Leuken."

When the deformation was lifted, I immediately dived into the futon.

...... sorry, sorry! 'Cause I really didn't think you'd be an arrow!

The next day, on the way to the dining room for breakfast, Richarda sighed and opened her mouth at a time when the sides were in full swing.

"Last night, Master Rosemayne tried the deformation of Starp on the bedside and filled the tent with a weapon called Mizdepow. Don't add that to your report to Haltmoot and Aerenfest."

"... Um, Master Rosemaine. It's not safe to deal with weapons on the bunk, is it?

That is what Philine tells me when she is distracted and blinks her eyes, and I turn away softly. Yesterday's practical moves still must be preached to you, without a doubt, for using weapons on the sleeping table.

"Dear Rosemayne, didn't you say that Mizdepow is just a toy and not a weapon?

Brother Cornelius sighed as he looked at me without even trying to hide his frightened expression.

"It's really a toy originally. But if the contents are magical, if it doesn't become an arrow the moment you strike it out like Master Ferdinand's bow, or if the arrow splits, it becomes a strong weapon, and you shoot it, it's hard, and the... tent is sacrificed."

"Dear Rosemaine, let me take a look at that weapon called Mizdepow."

When Haltmoot said so, Eudit also sparkled his colored eyes.

"I'd like to see it, too. Is it a weapon that can be handled with one hand and the magic becomes an arrow and flies away? Will it work for me, too?

When Eudit said that with excitement, Brother Cornelius also wanted to see it. Apparently, even if you're stunned by my work, the new weapon bothers you.

"When you're done with breakfast, how about we go to the gathering place in between the morning lectures? Because it's too dangerous in the dorm."

You can handle a weapon in the snow if it's not for me to show you a new weapon, but I'm anxious to get me to act in the snow, Leonore adds. Everyone agreed to reveal an improved water cannon to the neighbors at Aerenfest's collection site.

Soon after breakfast, we will travel by beast to the gathering place. While everyone else was studying in the multi-purpose hall, they asked me where I was going, but Haltmoot was gently flushing.

Then take the horseman to the collection site. Soon I saw a place glowing yellow. It always feels strange to see only a fraction of it snowy. However, the knights get very busy when they get inside because there are also a lot of warcraft coming to the collection location.

"I will try to attack you regardless of whether you have a warcraft or not, as you penetrate inside. The escort knight should stay on the side. Never enter before me. Okay, I'll go." Water cannon "!

I concentrated and deformed Starp into a water cannon. Keep going, grip the handle with just your left hand, and stick your right hand holding the water cannon as far out as you can and into the collection location.

"Wah!"

The scenery changes in an instant, as if through the junction of a magic mirror. As soon as that happened, it caught my eye that there were a few warcraft ahead.

Looking at the Warcraft, thinking of the chief priest's trombe exorcism, I pulled the trigger all the time. The liquid popping out of the water cannon takes the form of a glowing arrow, splitting and flying. Some of the flying arrows pierced the Warcraft.

"Yay!

"Ooh!"

However, although I stabbed him, I was only able to injure him, and it seems difficult to defeat him with one blow. Although Warcraft was frightened for a moment that a number of arrows had descended, he immediately launched an attack this way.

"I'm going!

Brother Cornelius' horseman, who increased his speed, penetrates toward the Warcraft. There was already a sword in its hand, and it quickly hunted the Warcraft.

"Dear Rosemaine, we have confirmed the power of your weapon. Let's leave this place immediately."

Leonore's voice rises and we almost return to the dorm. If there are more Warcraft poorly, the three Guardian Knights Apprenticeships won't be able to handle them.

"... you couldn't defeat the Warcraft with your weapon"

I thought I could take out a bunch of them with a cooler blow, but the reality isn't sweet.

"No, enough is enough. I was surprised by the unexpected weakness of the Warcraft."

Brother Cornelius shook his head, "If you're weak, you can take it down," he said. Apparently the Warcraft was slightly stronger today.

"I think it's an amazing weapon. But you can't use it on me. I can't use enough magic to strike out all those arrows."

Eudit lamented his shoulders. They say water cannons that are small, light and can handle even one hand, but strike out multiple arrows at once, are very poorly fueled by magic. It is precisely a weapon for me.

... By the time the arrows pop up, I'm not a water cannon anymore.

Since the water cannon seems unexpectedly powerful and user-friendly, I have decided to improve it little by little from now on with the water cannon as my weapon.

... Then I'd rather have a cooler black gun, not a water cannon. Here's the thing, you look like a hard boiler!

Back in the dorm and watching everyone study in the multi-purpose hall, I was alone, struggling to change the look of the water cannon. They want cool black guns, not cheap water cannons.

"Fail again..."

But unfortunately, I never touched a black, cool gun, not even a toy, and I couldn't clearly picture it. No matter how much I try, I can't think of it clearly in the back of my brain and it doesn't take shape.

The only change in appearance that could have been made at this point was to blacken the water cannon. Subtly translucent is not cool.

... ooh! I can't be a hardboiled egg like this! It's a plump, loose spa egg!

"Come on, come on, princess. I'm going to the auditorium without a hard face. It's an important day to see if they all get their first day of passing. Focus not on Starp, but on seating."

Richarda hastens me, and I will undo the deformation of Starp. The class is due to end today. After this, we can carefully improve the water cannon. For starters, everyone passes in the classroom.

... one day you'll definitely have a cool gun and I'll be hardboiled!
