Ascendance of a Bookworm

"Clothes are in terrible condition, but I'm glad they're all safe"

"I was not expecting Master Rosemayne to lead the knights to help me, so I am truly pleased to know that"

The grey priests' clothes delivered by the Cleric Chief meant that it was hard to get them off the cannibals, and the two of them had been completely cut off before. They put it round the carriage for the other two, whether they were taking it off to prevent the gray clerics from escaping, or whether they were going to change it for the future.

The two feathers wearing worn out clothes are desperately scratching and holding each other back, but it's better than not. When you get back to the orphanage, you can ask Vilma to serve you some new clothes.

"I watched Konrat get the gatekeeper through the orphanage window, so this is how I was able to go help right away. When you get back, you'll have to show Conrad you're safe."

"Yes."

Put the grey clerics in the back seat of the Lesser Bus, Eudit sits in the passenger seat and hurries back to the Temple.

"... Dear Rosemayne, I, I am a minor, but I have left the aristocratic city. Will it be a punishment?

Now that he's finished helping the gray clerics, Eudit seems to have remembered that he's a minor and shouldn't leave the aristocracy on mission. But there's no problem.

"Eudit hasn't left the aristocracy. What are you talking about?

"Huh? Huh?

"Chief Cleric would have said, wouldn't he? I will never publish this matter. The gray priest was never exposed, and we never left the temple."

Everything, including the fact that the Bible was stolen, will never have happened. There can be no punishment for not being out of the temple.

"More than that, please fly Ordnants to the Temple"

"Yes!"

Eudit in the passenger seat flew me the Ordnants, so Leonore, Fran and Vilma were picking me up when I arrived at the temple.

"Vilma, all the gray clerics are safe. However, prepare your new clothes because your clothes are worn out. Then I'd like you to take care so I can rest today."

"Yes, I did. Dear Rosemaine, Ladies and Gentlemen. Thank you for helping them. I know."

I looked around with a joyful smile at everyone that Vilma was on this occasion. You smile like you've been helped.

"You saved the hearts and minds of all the orphans who thought they would be abandoned even if something happened to you, not just to them. I sincerely appreciate it."

My proximity returns a complicated grin at the words of Vilma. Darmuel muttered small as he watched Vilma and the gray clerics head to the orphanage.

"We have only obeyed Lord Rosemaine's orders, so the next time the same thing happens, we will not help the Grey Clerics without your orders. Still, it's a pleasure to be thankful."

"Alas, the next time I command the same, I will help. That's all for sure."

After I said that as I looked around my side, I stopped my gaze at Leonore, who was gauging the timing of the report.

"So, what the hell happened, Leonore? I heard Haltmoot was running wild..."

"I know it's the fastest you can look at"

That's what Leonore says with his tired face, walking to those who have a slightly different room for blue clerics than where there is a temple chief or clergy chief's office. Walking at my walking speed makes me want to hold my head, but it doesn't seem to be such a rush project.

"Oh, will you come with the chief cleric, too?

"Haltmoot is not irrelevant because he's supposed to be using my side servants. Not a single one of my servants is picking me up. A little anxious."

It is very comforting for the Chief Cleric to come with us.

"When Haltmoot was out of my control, you asked the Chief Cleric."

"It's near you. You do something about it."

When the clergyman said what he had unleashed, he seemed to have arrived at his destination. I see a gray cleric standing in front of a door. When he saw us, he breathed a clear relief. And he opens the door right away.

"Oh. Welcome back, Master Rosemaine. Sorry for the ugly outfit."

A curly looking haltmut gave me a very refreshing smile. Horseback riding over a gurgling blue cleric, probably with a dagger shaken to deform the starp.

And around Haltmoot, several gray clerics are desperate to tie up the others.

... What, this?

"Please help me, Temple Chief! At the end of the conversation, Master Haltmoot suddenly goes into such outrages!

A blue cleric, held by Haltmoot, sees our faces and begs for help as he flirts. The next moment, Hartmoot beat me with a gagged dagger pattern.

"I think it's a lot thicker to ask Master Rosemaine for help?

"I'm so sorry!

It was Leonore who shouted before anyone else in an unexpected situation where everyone was appalled.

"What are you doing, Haltmoot!? I thought you said you were just tying it up to prevent information from spilling!

According to Leonore, Haltmoot decided to make a raid visit to the Blue Cleric's room to ask questions, as calling him to listen threatened to escape or be asked for help by the nobility.

"It's important to prevent information from being compromised, so I didn't really think about it until then."

As much as I thought Leonore would, I'd be rather unscrupulous in the aristocratic society where it's normal to make appointments.

However, it appears that Haltmoot was going to the next Blue Cleric after finishing the question and tying up and detaining the Blue Cleric and his side of the service who gained certainty that he was not involved with the noble woman. From the side service of the clergyman who was accompanying him, he said, "Is it really okay to do that?" A question was asked, and Fran said, "The job of tying up blue clerics seems very uncomfortable for the gray clerics," as a result of complaints received.

"So I sent Ordnants to Master Rosemayne, but I didn't think he was tying up the blue cleric and shaking up his weapon. Haltmoot, what the hell are you doing? Was it also any useful evidence?

Leonore looks down at Haltmut and the blue cleric with a harsh eye. Haltmoot glanced down at the blue cleric with a softly cold eye, then turned to me and laughed nicely.

"There was no particularly useful information. But since Rosemayne had a hard rumble in her ear, she was just asking what intent and evidence she had, and what it had extended to rumbling."

It must be something called "civilian ascent", such as the ramblings that the old Veronican blue cleric is likely to utter. Until now, within the temple, it had ended to the extent that it was seen with a frightened eye: "Are you still saying that," but for Haltmoot, it seems a tantrum that must be interrogated by waving a weapon. The chief cleric exhaled slowly, whining "ridiculously".

"Haltmoot, it's not wrong to be wary of spilling information. Especially important in cases like this one. But that's a little rough. Gather the blue priests in the Cleric's office, keep watch, and let them do their errands. I don't have the time to be rolling like this. Then you can interrogate Rosemaine later about the ramblings. It's a waste of time now. Do you understand?"

"Right."

Haltmoot stands up honestly as he says, "I will do it carefully at a later date". The chief cleric looked down quietly at the blue cleric, who was falling without power.

"To all Blue Clerics, choose who you like to keep tied up here until you finish questioning them, and who you like to run errands while you're under Haltmoot's watch in the Clerical Office."

To the chief cleric's question, the blue cleric comes looking at me with a pitiful face asking for help. I have trouble getting those eyes on me. I know it's both a terrible option, but if the two Cleric Chiefs and Haltmoot care so much about leaking information, it's not something I can talk about. I shook my head small.

... I can't help you, I'm sorry.

The Blue Cleric turned into a look of despair and replied small, "... and let me do my errand" with a gaggle.

"Good. Try to work it out that way. Haltmoot, so that he can be more responsible for his errands. I'll be the one to ask the blue clergy questions ahead."

After the word of the clergyman, the clergyman's side service began to move quickly. Unbind the Blue Cleric and take him to the Clerical Office. And we must also show the choices to the blue clerics tied up at Haltmoot's behest so far. I'm busy.

"Was there any useful information?

"Nothing in particular so far. to the extent that people felt moving down the hallway at lunch. However, I knew perfectly well that the Blue Clerics had no idea of Master Rosemaine's excellence or the value of the Grey Clerics doing the printing business in the workshop. You have to teach that in your clerkship. We'll take care of it later."

Haltmoot makes sure to chase away the freaking blue cleric and head to the clergy's office. After dropping off that back, the chief cleric looked down at me.

"Well, from now on, there are all the blue clerics left who are going to rant about you. So we were lucky to isolate Haltmoot, who we risk a runoff from... There are three more blue clerics who were close to the Shikikoza clan. All my parents are old Veronicans."

With that said, the Chief Cleric names the three. The moment I heard the name Egmont, my ears moved perfectly.

"It's Egmont. He's the killer."

"On what grounds?

"It's a woman's inquiry. He has a priori who vandalized my library."

"Ridiculous. Isn't it just a personal grudge? Not at all grounded"

The chief cleric carves a deep wrinkle between his brows and stares at me. But I think. There is only Egmont. There's no doubt about it.

Brother Cornelius gently flaunted his shoulders at my claim.

"Dear Ferdinand, aren't you good because I ask you questions from Egmont? It just changes the order a little, even if it's different."

"Hmm. I do waste time asking this kind of question"

Brother Cornelius laughed nicely and looked down at me as the chief cleric thanked Brother Cornelius and looked up where he was concerned to head to Egmont.

"Besides... I trust Rosemayne's lady. No matter how young you are, you're a woman."

"I'm sorry. Forget it now, Brother Cornelius. The sheriff's right, it's just a personal grudge!

It's not like the chief cleric lets me in the scratch, but when it's affirmed and repeated with an inclusive smile, it makes me so ashamed that I want to dig a hole and fill it. I gently slapped my shoulder holding my head in the face where Brother Cornelius was desperate to laugh.

"We need to talk more quickly than the temple chief and the clergyman. Shall I have the door open?"

"I know you didn't make any promises."

I heard a lady on the side from across the door. In reply to "Please pick it up for today," the clergyman calls Brother Cornelius and Brother Eckhardt and waves gently.

"Knock out the door to such an extent that it has no effect inside"

"Huh? Are you sure?

By the time Brother Cornelius looked up at the Cleric Chief with a bewildered face, Brother Eckhardt had already deformed the Starp and stood in front of the door.

"Dear Ferdinand, I am enough on my own"

Brother Eckhardt said so and shook up his sword, knocking off the door really gently. A pissy line goes in and the door slowly falls towards the inside of the room. "I was going to let Cornelius gain experience, but, well, okay," shrugged the chief cleric as he blinked at the vivid arrangements.

If the door leans, naturally, you'll see it round inside. I caught sight of a side-serving witch watching the door fall with a flashing face like she didn't know what was going on.

Behind you can see the blue clothes and the gray clothes sitting in the bench.

"I thought you said we needed to talk."

Ignoring the side service that was near the door, the clergyman steps on the fallen door and enters the room once again. Brother Eckhardt and Justkus follow him with a flat face, so I followed him hastily, too.

Egmont said, "Wow!" And after he cried out, he found me behind the chief cleric, and cried out,

"Bu, bu, disrespectfully enough! In advance, you don't even know the method of attaching promises, you are born and raised humble!

The cries of Egmont pointed to the air of the spirits and the surrounding proximity.

"Oh, you were right not to bring Haltmoot here"

"Yeah, I almost got Steinluke out, too."

Brother Cornelius and Angelica laugh huffily. The chief clergyman laughed with his hun and nose as he looked down at the side servings that were getting familiar by trying to hide cold and behind Egmont.

"When we talk about bringing the gray witch there to the sidelines, can we say that she looked better visiting the temple chief's office without having to attach her word in advance?

What the Chief Cleric is saying is apparently a story while I sleep in Jurevé. Speaking of which, I also feel like I heard Lily talk like that when she got a report that she was pregnant and a replacement witch was served.

Egmont, once stuck in words to the chief priest's point, put his chest up all the time, pointing at me visciently.

"It's within the moment that little girls like you can fool everyone. I'm going to peel you off right away."

... Is that it?

Next to Egmont's index finger poked at me, I could well see a ring with demonic stones glistening on my middle finger because of being gripped. My eyes nail a ring with a pattern like a family crest on it.

... You didn't wear that ring before, did you?

It is the aristocratic child who finished the baptism ceremony to put the ring on his middle finger on his left hand. A blue cleric who is not baptized as a noble child does not wear a magic ring. Anyone else I know who wears a ring on his middle finger is a cannibal soldier with a subordination pact.

"Egmont, that ring......"

Everyone's gaze turns to the ring in my words. At the next moment, all I could see was the cloak of the clergyman.

"Huh?"

Raising his gaze up, the chief clergyman deformed Starp into a sword and was in a swinging position.

Everyone's breathtaking noise sounds loud and fast. And after a beat, a scream and a blood splash flew around, and over the cape there was the sound of gotri and heavy objects falling.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!

Egmont's scream rises, making sure it follows and the screams of Egmont's sideservants echo.

"Ahhh!

"Hih!

I can imagine what's going on across the cloak, but it doesn't come into my sight except on the back of the clergyman.

In the meantime, the chief cleric began to give instructions quietly with a stamp toward Egmont.

"Yustox, Eckhardt. Head to Rosemaine's workshop and get some magic equipment! Eudit and Leonore accompanied him as escorts for Rosemaine and waited in his room. Don't come out until this one calls. Cornelius, Darmuel and Angelica, tie up all the sidelines."

"Ha!"

Brother Eckhardt and Justkus begin to move quickly. Brother Eckhardt gently tapped Fran's shoulder and walked on his fastfoot telling him to "open the door to the room," and Justkus held me up slightly as he stood looking up at the chief cleric's back.

"I'm in a hurry, please excuse me, princess. Eudit, Leonore, let's go."

"Ha, ha!

Justkus began to run with me in his arms. The temple chief's office had already been opened wide by Fran. Brother Eckhardt is waiting in front of the door that leads to the workshop.

"Rosemaine, open the workshop. We have to get the magic equipment out."

I will open the workshop immediately and give permission so that Brother Eckhardt and Justkus can pass by. The two of them left with magic equipment that would stop time.

"Are you all right, Master Rosemaine? If you'd seen it nearby, you'd feel bad, wouldn't you?

Leonore peeks into me worried. I shook my head slowly.

"I'm fine. Me, I could only see the cloak of the chief priest... Is Leonore or Eudit okay?

"We are still knights."

Tea and sweets are served before us, laughing vigorously. "Energize yourself by eating good food," Nicola said, smiling as usual. I gently put my mouth on the tea as I felt my daily routine return to that smile.

"Is something wrong, Master Rosemaine?

I've heard Rhoderich with an anxious face. I only answer, "There was a man in the blue clergy with a suspicious ring."

"Let the chief clergyman and the escort knights capture you. I have to do what I can. Do you have any new information from downtown?

It is not for me to catch the killer or question him. As I switch heads, Filine immediately begins reporting with a note form.

"It's information from people in Lower Town. Since there is no temple gatekeeper, it seems that there were a few people coming to the Ottomar Chamber of Commerce to buy sweets for the Lord who will be waiting in the carriage. It appears that the first came not long before the bell of 4 rang."

Information from Utte of the Ottomar Chamber of Commerce contained information about the time when the temple gatekeeper was gone. It was a short time before we headed to an Italian restaurant.

"In addition to that, he received an offer today that a man who seems to be a noble user would like to dine in an Italian restaurant. They said no because Rosemayne and Ferdinand are here, but the shopkeepers have confirmed that a man with a similar vibe is wandering around the area."

"Maybe the man was keeping an eye on our trends. It seemed too clearly grasped the time of absence"

Talking to Filine about the suspicious sightings at an Italian restaurant, now Lauderich starts reporting.

"This is from the Gilberta Chamber of Commerce. Between the three bells and the four bells came a man of noble use, who said he wanted a new fashionable dyed cloth. He seemed to disguise himself as a merchant, but he said his physical hips, language and attitude towards the clerk felt the same as those around the aristocracy. I heard Master Rosemayne wanted a cloth he liked."

When it comes to new dyes, it is mainstream to pursue my preferences. When nobles order, it is predominant to look at the dye samples, have them bring their preferred type of cloth to their homes, and nominate workshops and craftsmen. I don't Florentine the way I order "just like me".

"What is the purpose? The Gilberta Chamber of Commerce could be involved in some sort of stigmatizing conspiracy."

What floats behind my brain is Thuri, a Dapra apprentice at the Guilberta Chamber of Commerce. It will also have to be taken into account that Touri, a hair decorator, is being targeted.

With such a report, not so much, Justkus came.

"My dear princess, I am very afraid that Master Ferdinand has asked me to send out a horseman to the castle."

Though I can't even carry it by carriage, it seems more convenient for the Lesser Bus to move the magic equipment and Egmont's side services that stop time quickly and without being seen. Lesser buses let you directly into the castle, but if you were to carry them by carriage, there would be an inspection at the gate into the castle.

I will take the escort knights and prepare them for the castle. Escort the magic apparatus that stops time and the services of the four bound men. The escort knights carry magic equipment and sidekicks. I exhaled gently as the Chief Cleric watched how it was.

"I'm sorry I let you do this, Rosemaine"

"I don't mind. To restore my scriptures."

It's so much harder for a clergyman or escort knight than it is for me to just be protected.

"Your job is just to carry you to the castle. After that, return to the temple immediately. There's so much to see about the orphanage, opening up the blue clergy who's in custody to run errands in the clergyman's room."

For surveillance so that the side service could not be broken, Eudit in the passenger seat and Angelica and Leonore also in the rear seat, and I went after the chief priest's horseman to the castle. Instead of the habitat where they always arrive, they head for the area used by the knights.

"... where are we going?

"This is where we deal with criminals."

That's what Angelica said succinctly. Upon arrival, several of the Knights were already waiting. Your father strokes his head gently as the escort knights lower their magic equipment and lower their sidelines.

"Sounds like a big deal, Rosemaine. We'll get the evidence and the clues, so leave it to us and rest a little."

"But I'm the only one who's moving..."

Your father played my forehead lightly before I said it was bad to rest alone.

"... it's important to be prepared after this. It's not over when we catch the blue cleric. Rather, it's a beginning."
