Ascendance of a Bookworm

... Mr. Heishitze knows. That Master Ferdinand had been harassed by Master Veronica.

Realizing that only one person reacted differently, I watched Heishitze. I don't think I'd say I'm being harassed by myself, given Ferdinand's character. Justkus or Brother Eckhardt, or maybe he heard it from those around him, like Hirschühl. At least Heishitze is someone who was close enough to get information that only some people know even at Aerenfest.

"I have to support Dear Dietrinde in Arlensbach. I am no longer in a very good position to play ditter with him. I can't keep it forever. Return this one."

Ferdinand smiled at Heishitze, letting him hold the blue cloak in Heishitze's hand.

"Dear Ferdinand, this is..."

With a flashing face, did Heishitze, comparing the blue cloak that came back into his own hands to Ferdinand, realize what it means to be bothered to return a cloak that was not returned when entering the temple?

"Good for you. Come back with your precious cloak."

Your wife will be delighted.

The knights of Dunkelferger laughed as they slapped Heishitze on the shoulder. I'm sure the knights knocking on their shoulders from behind Heishitze probably don't see their bloody faces. Ferdinand smiles furiously at Heishitze, who is tense when he says "good" around him.

"The precious cloak that had been taken away for so many years came back. Why don't you be a little happier, Heishitze?

The voice, which was terribly flimsy, as opposed to the smile, sounded like an order to "rejoice as we celebrated our engagement". Once he sees the Lord of the Cold Voice, Heishitze leans down and grips his cloak hard before grinning.

"I didn't think Master Ferdinand would return this cloak. My wife will be delighted."

There was one who broke in between Heishitze, who realized that he had helped push him into the worst possible situation without trying, and Ferdinand, who was strong enough to show joy without even allowing him to apologize.

"Oh, why did Master Ferdinand have that important cape?

Unwilling to read the pressing air at all, Dietrinde looked up at Heishitze with an intriguing glimmer of eyes, as the knights around him began to talk about the beginning of things so that they could compete first.

"… so much more than during the House of Lords, Heishitze was trying to regain his cloak"

"Well! How awful to take up the cape of someone who can be your wife! I didn't think Master Ferdinand would be so ruthless."

The knights look at each other more breathtakingly in surprise at Dietrinde, who began to get stuffed with the story of the knights in teasing tone.

"Oh, no, Master Ferdinand said he'd give it back, but until he won at Ditter, it was Heishitze who said,"

"Still, I can't believe they stole my embroidered cape with all my heart..."

"It's okay. Dunkelferger's man will try again and again."

Ferdinand took a subtle step back and turned his back softly, leaving Dietrinde's opponents to the knights. And when I return to the table, I greet the First Lady of Dunkelferger and Hannelore after grumbling "sorry to disturb you" to my adoptive father.

"Dear Ferdinand, this way please"

As soon as Ferdinand's seat was ready at the direction of Brunhilde, who saw how Dietrinde was speaking in, tea and sweets were served. My adoptive father's tea and sweets are also replaced at the same time, and my adoptive father puts the tea and sweets in his mouth one bite at a time.

"Oh, that tastes like Aerenfest."

That's what Ferdinand said in a smudged tone after a sip of tea. They drink different types of tea on a daily basis in Arlensbach. Ferdinand's favorite tea-leafed cattle curls are ready, but that was lowered to Justkus and Brother Eckhardt after a little eating.

"Yustox, Eckhardt. It tastes like home for a long time. Taste them too."

"I'm afraid so."

I guess it also makes sense to give the two of them a break between the bundles while they're still in the Aerenfest space where they can feel safe for Ferdinand. Justkus and Brother Eckhardt step back a little with the plate that was lowered.

Ferdinand, who had the escort knight standing behind him who was accompanying him from Arlensbach, slowly turned his gaze to the First Lady for a cup of tea.

"I saw a joint study with Aerenfest earlier, but I was surprised that such an old ritual still exists in Dunkelferger. I think it's really great to have succeeded in getting blessings from this research."

I lean my neck against the words of Ferdinand, who seems to know old rituals but not what is taught by Rufen in the House of Lords.

"Does Master Ferdinand not know the ritual of Dunkelferger? Dr. Rufen was there, wasn't he?

If Ferdinand shook his head "unknowingly" to my question, Hannelore taught me.

"I learned for the first time in the course of this study that one of the Knight's Course teachers has been able to teach Mr. Rufen since his departure and exploitation was entrusted to him."

"He said the younger generation would know dance in every territory, so tourists wanted to teach the grown knights to make hunting warcraft a little easier," he discussed. Wouldn't Dunkelferger's influence grow again? "

Ferdinand added that, his adoptive father nodded deeply as well.

"I'd like to see Aerenfest somehow before next winter's main crusade."

According to my adoptive father, he tried it because we received information from him, but this year he did not succeed in obtaining blessings. Since the majority of the main knights have to start where they learn to dance, they don't seem to get blessings right away.

"Even in Dunkelferger's dorm, ritual success seems to be about 80%. The adults of the territory have almost become successful. It is believed that the success rate of rituals depends on the amount of magic they serve."

According to the First Lady, a ceremony has been held to obtain blessings even in the territory with information from the House of Lords. Every time he became a ditter, and he said the knights, who began to aub the temple, had made a very difficult attempt to push in large numbers that it might be a good idea to obtain divine objects in order to serve efficiently.

"Again, don't let the temple side's hard work be compassionate. Don't you think so, Rosemaine? Would that be just the time of the service ceremony?

Think of the words of Ferdinand, if you are the head of the temple of Dunkelferger. The temple, which has never been looked upon at all by the nobility, is also being pushed by a large number of knights, beginning with Aub, who said, "Hand over the divine objects" during the service ceremony. It's not strange to go up to much higher with cardiac paralysis.

"Really, I was in the mood to resent Master Rosemaine for what a big deal he did then"

...... sorry. Seriously, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it like that.

Apologizing down in his heart to the First Lady, who has a slightly distant eye, and to the Temple Chief of Dunkelferger, he says, "Do you resent Rosemaine?" Ferdinand stared at me.

Hannelore intercedes on my behalf, who has unwittingly solidified, "Master Rosemayne hasn't done anything wrong just because Dunkelferger is rampant, Master Ferdinand".

... That's Hannelore!

It was for a moment that I was moved.

"It is Lord Rosemayne's feat that we have been blessed with that ritual. As soon as Master Rosemaine imitated the ritual that had become only a formality and gave his magic with the spear of the Rydenshaft, a pillar of the Blessed Light stood. And because of the powerful blessings, Dunkelferger took a leap to revive the ritual."

... ooh! Master Hannelore, stop! Master Ferdinand's eyes scare me!

"Ho? The letter didn't go into that much detail, but Rosemaine was very helpful."

"Yes. The Aerenfest service ceremony that Master Rosemayne gave was also wonderful. Zent was delighted."

... please. Stop, stop.

It is very difficult to have more elements that are likely to anger me before dinner, even though I have only written the unnatural part so as not to be angry when it comes to the service ceremony.

"Fe, Master Ferdinand! I have to head over to all the territories to say hello and you are very busy!? It's not a good idea to hold back any longer..."

"Don't be dramatic, Rosemaine. There's nothing we can do while Master Dietrinde doesn't move. More than that, I want to know what you were up to. I didn't know much about it in my letters."

You seem to have a lot to hide, your eyes say things as much as your mouth. My adoptive father and I are so bloody distracted by Ferdinand trying to get the story out of Hannelore. I have submitted a detailed report to my adoptive father, and Hannelore is present at most of the interviews.

... Not good. Somebody help me!

"What are you talking about here?

Dietrinde came to the table to tell a story with the knights. When Hannelore smiled at Nicole and replied, "It's a story of collaborative research," she sparkled her deep green eyes.

"Earlensbach's research is by Master Ferdinand's disciples and begins with a focus on how little magic moves the library's magic equipment. After the coup d 'état, an intermediate nobleman, Dr. Solange, a study to maintain magic equipment that was not possible on your own, has also attracted great attention to the royal family from the point of view of preserving materials."

… it, as is the report I have written. Besides, the most important part of research that needs to be very beneficial in order to have a library individually is missing.

"I'm afraid, Dear Dietrinde. We were talking about a joint study of Dunkelferger and Aerenfest."

Dietrinde pointed out to the First Lady that she had not heard anything else about Arlensbach's research, and that it was not on the subject, "Well!" I rounded my eyes.

"I would be troubled if you didn't explain Arlensbach's research properly, Master Ferdinand"

... Yes?

Collecting the gaze of all the pompous, Dietrinde, who should be very busy around greetings, began to brag about Arlensbach's research as he prepared his seats for the side serving apprentices at Aerenfest.

"That's why some magic devices record voices, and I, Earlensbach's research, speak of hot love. Ho ho ho..."

Unlike me, who would put a scratch in her heart that it wasn't Schmir's plush toy who was talking about hot love, the First Lady spoke out clearly.

"Shouldn't you say it's not an Arlensbach study, but a joint study with Aerenfest? It doesn't sound very good."

"Oh, it's a study by my fiancée, Master Ferdinand's apprentice, so it's equal to Earlensbach's research."

The First Lady's smile mixed with unspeakable confusion. My eyes look at me and say, "Aren't they stealing research?". What do they think you're doing when you negotiate exactly with Dunkelferger?

You can't be received in this way that Arlensbach is doing this to you. I smiled at Nicoli and the First Lady.

"Please take a trip to see what the joint study of Arlensbach and Aerenfest looks like. My sidekick apprenticeships and knight apprenticeships worked hard."

"... not a civilian apprentice? It's a collaborative study, right?

The First Lady has become even more baffled and difficult to understand. It is normal that the research to be exhibited in the territorial rivalry is that of a civilian apprentice, but it is the reeselator who made the magic equipment a cute stuffed animal, and it is Laurenz who breathed the word of love, so I have not vomited a lie at all.

"Adorable Schmill stuffed animal marks Aerenfest"

"Yes, I remember in Lady Rosemaine's words. I was going to ask Master Ferdinand to do me a favor."

"Dear Ferdinand," said Dietrinde, who hit Pong and his hand. Leaving me and the First Lady to brag about Dietrinde, Ferdinand, who was voiced just as he began to hear things from his adoptive father and Hannelore, made a laugh and said, "What?," he tilted his neck.

"As I asked earlier, I want that Schmir stuffed animal. You said both Rymund and Ferdinand belonged to Mr. Rosemayne, right? So please don't ask me to give you away pleasantly. Will you do me a favor?

He wanted Schmir to whisper love, after Rymund and Ferdinand asked him once to say no. Everyone who was on the spot blinks and focuses on Dietrinde, not just Ferdinand.

"An exhibit prepared by Aerenfest, isn't it?

Surprisingly confirmed by the First Lady, I nodded cocklessly. I have trouble being told I want it. That's Schmir to give to Retizia.

"Dear Dietrinde, I'm so sorry, but I've decided to give it to you."

"We will now negotiate with that person. Who would you give it to?

Hannelore called out to Dietrinde, who showed her an attitude she would never give way to.

"Um, Dear Dietrinde. If it's a Schmir stuffed animal, why don't you let it be made to serve your side?

"No way. Not that anyone can make a stuffed animal to serve the side of Arlensbach...... right?

Dietrinde stepped out of sight to chase the First Lady and raised her jaw.

"I would if I were a regular stuffed animal. But as you can see from the fact that it's an exhibit, it's magic equipment. Master Rosemayne took the blueprints and rights from Rymund before me, the next Aub. Something really troubling without even consulting the next Aub because it's a collaborative study"

"The buying from the researchers is done in person, and you don't need Aub's permission for the next Aub, as well as Aub's. I paid Rymund to buy it, and I didn't take it away."

I immediately disputed. If you don't deny it, Dietrinde's claim goes through. The look on the face of the First Lady became so subtle. Ferdinand smiles seemingly sweet as he slowly looks around at his surrounding reactions.

"Dear Dietrinde, If you take what you have decided to give way to, you'll be confused."

He didn't get through to Dietrinde alone, saying read the air a little and refrain from being impatient. You look dissatisfied and stare at Ferdinand.

"Master Ferdinand, you want me. If you're my fiancée, do me a favor."

"... ok. If you're saying you should even get the magic equipment, promise me I'll make it after you get the workshop in Arlensbach. Sorry, Rosemaine. I want you to send me the blueprints when you get the workshop."

... Do you mean to give me the workshop because I make magic equipment?

I also smile and push back, realizing Ferdinand's intentions in trying to get his own stash room and workshop while making him seem to respond as best I can.

"Please do not contact me when Master Ferdinand gets the workshop. I'll send you the blueprints in a letter right away."

"Well, it's nice that your fiancée bothered to make it. Good for you, Dear Dietrinde."

Even though Hannelore smiled and held the occasion round, Dietrinde did not smile happily and shook her head.

"Master Ferdinand gets the workshop after the star knot. Isn't that a long way ahead? I want it now, before anyone else gets it. Master Rosemaine has the blueprints, so why don't we rebuild them?

The air, which seemed to fit in circles, was cut off, and Ferdinand sighed with a gentle tap on his temples and the First Lady and Hannelore looked at each other unexpectedly.

"Is this how Dear Dietrinde is always demanded by Aerenfest?

"Isn't that natural? I am Ahrensbach's next Aub."

The First Lady held her forehead. Seeing how it was, Ferdinand raised one eyebrow lightly and smiled, his adoptive father gently clapping his shoulders.

In the meantime, the Rezelator crouched behind me and called out to me so that I could hear it alone.

"Dear Rosemayne, why don't you give Schmir on display to Deatrinde? I'll make it again."

"Rezelator......"

"It would be hard to see Master Ferdinand in trouble, wouldn't it?

I snorted. I can hardly make it on my own, but if Lieselator makes it, it's better to give him Schmill than to make Ferdinand look in trouble.

"I'll give it to you when the territorial rivalry is over. You're right, let's rebuild what we give you."

"Well, happy things"

Dietrinde rejoices in his gorgeous voice, and Ferdinand apologizes to me, "Sorry, Rosemayne".

"Master Ferdinand doesn't mind. My side service is so clever it makes me a new one again"

"But..."

I don't want Ferdinand to look like that, but it doesn't work. As I was wondering what to do, Hannelore smiled Nicole.

"I haven't seen it yet, but I think that Schmir might be a new epidemic for Aerenfest again."

"Yep. When it comes to Ehrenfest fashion, it's a hair decoration, but doesn't Dear Dietrinde use it? I also saw the hair decorations that Restylaut ordered this morning, but they were brilliant."

The First Lady smiles and nods at Hannelore's words to soothe the occasion, changing the subject from schmill to hair decoration.

"Of course you gave it to Master Ferdinand, but it is tomorrow's graduation ceremony that I will show you. If you put it on today, you'd be less surprised, wouldn't you? Look forward to tomorrow."

... No, I don't think you have to surprise me.

"I will come to the graduation ceremony as the next Aub."

The Ordnants flew over to where Dietrinde was stretching his chest like he was good at it. Because there are so many of them, I don't know who the Ordnants have flown towards, and everyone in their seats lightly offers their hands. And the white bird came down into my hand.

"Dear Rosemaine, what the hell is this all about!? I have not received any reports, such as these words! Aerenfest is going to trick Arlensbach!

The kinky flaurelm's loud voice echoed plenty three times. You have just enough voice to listen while holding your ear. I can hear you, but I don't really understand what you're talking about.

"Did you fail to report anything?

"I should have reported everything to Dr. Fraurelm... what happened?

"Um, Master Rosemaine. Can you forgive me for my remarks? Well, maybe..."

Granting permission to the reseller, he said, "Isn't that Schmir's last word? I said."

"Muriella took it this morning to exhibit, but I heard the first word, maybe two, and Dr. Fraurelm didn't confirm it until the end"

"Is there something at the end? I got an explanation from Rymund this morning, and he was a lot of idiots... he blew in unusual words, but he had his head..."

It seems Ferdinand gibbered up in the first word after being described as Schmir's plush toy that speaks the language of hard and love. They heard there were ten different kinds in all, and they weren't willing to crack their magic to hear the words of love spoken in a man's voice to the end.

"That word of love is an excerpt from a love story in the House of Lords. So at the end of the day, I put in the Aerenfest book, which started with the Love Story in the House of Lords."

"I can't believe such publicity flows from the Arlensbach exhibit..." Dietrinde lifted his eyes and took a seat when he said publicity complaining that he had blown himself in.

"I beg your pardon! I have to head to another territory to say hello! Let's come, Master Ferdinand."

Why didn't you check until the end? Ferdinand stood up as he looked behind Dietrinde, who started walking angrily, leaking a cool, small laugh as he thought.

"Did the propaganda for Aerenfest's book circulate in the midst of all that research on Aerensbach's chest? Damn you...... You really can't predict what you're going to do."

Ferdinand couldn't help but walk out and put his hands gently on my head, "Oh dear," he said.
