Ascendance of a Bookworm
Side of gossip Dear Dietrinde
My name is Martina. I'm a fifth grader in the House of Lords, and I'm a side-service apprentice to Dear Dietrinde. I celebrated my baptismal ceremony when the Second Lady was executed and her son, Lady Brazius, was dropped by a senior nobleman, and Lady Georgine, who was the Third Lady, began to absorb the Second Lady's faction and develop its forces.
Lady Georgine proposed that Lady Brazius, who had been dropped by a senior nobleman, daughter-in-law his own daughter, Lady Arsteade, and that the son born between them be included in the Lords' clan as an adopted son, to take in the Second Lady's faction. The only remaining male Lordship candidate, Mr. Georgine's son, Wolfram, was the leading next Aub at this time.
Master Georgine has begun to bring together forces revolting against the First Lady, mainly Master Wolfram. Because my mother was from Flaberturk, it was easier for the Georginese faction to belong than for the First Lady faction, and because my Aurelian sister, who was supposed to have given it to the faction earlier, told me to belong to the Georginese faction.
... because I don't like dealing with other people and getting information, and it's your sister who chose the knight.
Your sister has a tough face, a poor eyesight, and a face that is at first glance very suitable for a knight, but her personality has something to be cowardly about with the idea of pulling in. I often went out of my way to distance and look like I was staring from afar, and my father always said, "I don't have cuteness".
Even though the weather is strong even if your mother is a senior aristocrat because she is from Flavel Turk, your sister is losing even more because of her looks and personality. I acted brightly, trying not to be like your sister.
Was it worth the effort? Lady Georgine said, "Honest, hard-working kids are adorable. And thou shalt be at thy side," and set me at the side of Lord Dietrinde.
I was actually trying to be a civilian to be near the next Aub candidate, Master Wolfram, but I'm not a foolish kid enough to put that in my mouth. I took Georgine's offer with a smile and became a sidekick apprentice to Deatrinde.
However, the fact that I have become a close proximity to Master Dietrinde has minimized the flow of information about Mr. Georgine to your father. I think the extraction of Master Georgine, who prevents information from spilling while making it look like he can take it near the side of the Lordship Candidate around, or stands around unable to complain, is great, but your father still sometimes looks regrettable and slaps his pussy with "Kamevalein the Aerenfest".
And as we all began to think that Arlensbach, mainly Georgine and Wolfram, was going on, the arrowhead, the only boy and the Wolfram, who was seen as the next Aub, died in an accidental accident, leaving only Lord Candidates left in Arlensbach, Deatrinde.
Naturally, Arlensbach has been in a lot of noise. You cannot return Master Alsteade, who has been married to a senior nobleman, to the Lords' clan. Instead of turning Lady Dietrinde into the next Aub, the First Lady, determined to adopt her own granddaughter, welcomed Lady Retizia from Drevanhel.
Thus, it appeared that the power that was almost inclined towards Master Georgine had once again returned to the First Lady. However, the First Lady died from a rapid debilitation from the time she received Lady Retizia.
By the intention of Master Georgine, who became First Lady, Aurelia's sister was to be married to Aerenfest. The marriage between your sister and Bettina is known in Arlensbach as a beauty story of Master Georgine, who saved two sets of lovers who were about to be separated by inter-territorial circumstances.
The truth is, I was sent to get information about Aerenfest, but your sister just never sent me any information, and I don't have a connection to the nobility that Master Georgine told me, and it seems to be captured by Aerenfest.
I even refused to see him, but I can't tell if that was due to your sister's will or to the intention of the Knights Commander or Aub. I was told I could send a letter, but my sister only sends me an unusual letter saying, "I'm making everyone better."
... What the hell is your sister thinking? Being as useless as ever anywhere.
In the House of Lords, I have been attached to Deatrinde for a long time, and I cannot make my way to gather information on other lands. That's why I wanted to get information about Aerenfest from your sister, but your sister doesn't give me any information.
We are in trouble because it is our mission in the House of Lords to make sure that we do not cause problems and graduate so that Master Dietrinde does not show hysterical ugliness, while making it seem like he stands as the Lord.
... Dear Dietrinde should be growing up looking at Master Georgine, how can you live without thinking about it so much?
It really doesn't surprise me. However, I think I'm happy to be so blunt in a way.
In any case, how careful we are, Lady Dietrinde will not stop. Every year, do something extra. What makes my head particularly painful is where I make one silence after another in a social setting such as a tea party where my side service cannot be suppressed by aggressiveness?
He did it at the end of the year. It showed an unprecedented ugliness of losing consciousness and falling on the way to a service dance. No one could open their mouth at lunchtime to Dear Dietrinde, who had committed an outrageous malfunction, and it was quiet back, and darkened in front of the Ordnants, who flew in from the royal family at a time when they had to prepare for their graduation this afternoon. Lady Ferdinand, my fiancée, was called to inquire about Lady Dietrinde's condition, but it is clear to everyone that this is reprimand.
But the situation changed again at the graduation ceremony this afternoon. That's what the temple chief of the central temple said Dietrinde was closest to the next Zent with the magical formation floating in the service dance to choose the next Zent.
After this, the topic of graduation in Arlensbach became about the magic formations and the next Zent, which emerged exclusively in the service dance. It was easier for the nobles in the territory to accept the next Zent candidate, who activated a magical formation that could not even shine on the royal family, than the condition that the only Lordship candidate who could be the next Aub had committed an irrevocable ugliness at the service ceremony.
According to Ferdinand, who has spoken to the royal family, "I couldn't get it to work completely, so it's hard to say I'm the next Zent candidate". But isn't such a thing a good thing? It's important that there was no reprimand from the royalty, and that Dear Dietrinde's demise be hidden at all.
It was two days after the service dance that Lady Dietrinde, the depleted of magic, woke up. As soon as I woke up, I was angry with Dietrinde, who said, "Rosemaine tricked me into shaming me with an important service dance," but I was in a good mood just to say that our side service conveyed the words of the Chief of the Central Temple and said, "It's closest to the next Zent." "That's Dietrinde." This easy-to-handle personality is very helpful because I didn't want you to have any more problems in the House of Lords, where your graduation ceremony is over. Dear Dietrinde's side service made eye contact with each other and stroked his chest down.
… Something that also involves the evaluation of the side service when the Lord, Dear Dietrinde, causes problems.
The most important role for us at our age when we had to find someone to marry was to graduate Master Dietrinde. Dear Dietrinde gets angry at you immediately for damaging your mood, so it's hard to fix it so you don't look ugly around you.
After this, after returning to Arlensbach, you will be able to erase the problem in any way, and it will be at the service of your fiancée, Lady Ferdinand, to make surveillance or assist you.
... that really helps.
Upon returning from the House of Lords, the next candidate for Zendt, Lady Dietrinde, was called away by Lady Georgine to discuss his future actions. While we were spending time in the House of Lords, Master Georgine seems to have finished his move to the outhouse.
Aub died at the end of the fall, but Dear Dietrinde, who was going to the House of Lords, has not yet been dyed the foundation and has not become Aub. For this reason, Dear Dietrinde's room has not yet been moved to the main building and there is a room in the distance that is being given to the Lordship Candidate. This is a situation where there is no one from the Lords clan in the main building right now.
Stand down, ladies.
The proximities have been ordered to step back from the venue of the discussions between Lady Georgine and Lady Dietrinde. Leaving you two behind and leaving your room, we'll head to your room for waiting. I was mistaken for a few nobles along the way.
"You weren't very familiar. Are they the newly-installed proximity of Master Georgine?
"There was a lord in his left hand wearing a prosthetic magic trick. Perhaps you had another meal from the old Berkestok territory."
"Hiding in my cape, it didn't look like me, but it's rare that I'm a prosthetic. How badly did you get hurt and couldn't heal in time?
I know a few knights whose job it is to fight are using prosthetic and prosthetic magic equipment, but earlier it seemed like a civilian. Some of the former Berkeshtocks must have thrown themselves into a fierce battle.
"I don't think you have to bother to serve someone who needs a prosthetic hand..."
"Are you dissatisfied with Master Georgine's conduct?
"That's not true. It's just disgusting to think about this aftermath. I just want to think about something else."
Everyone looked at each other and laughed bitterly at those words. Dietrinde had all sorts of information regulated so that no problematic action could be taken in the House of Lords, but the circumstances in which he was lying down should have been communicated by Mr. Georgine.
Dear Dietrinde will be in a terrible mood to learn that he is a relay aub, that after finishing the star knot ritual with Master Ferdinand by royal decree, he will welcome Master Retizia as his adopted daughter, etc. I feel really depressed because it's the side service that makes me the most susceptible to eight hits.
"Speaking of which, you were happy to say it was the next Zent, but could Dear Dietrinde really honestly serve as a relay aub?
"Any person would have trouble with Arlensbach without the next Aub, and it's not like Gluthris Height is on hand. Dear Dietrinde, you will never be the next Zendt."
I'm just lifting it because it's easy to handle, and no one thinks Dear Dietrinde can really be the next Zent. Rather, we are more worried about the future of Arlensbach, where we live.
"You have trouble having only Lord Dietrinde and Retizia candidates in Arlensbach right now."
"If Lady Dietrinde and Lady Ferdinand were married, would they make Lady Benedicta their daughter? That way, there will be more Lordship candidates."
Master Benedicta is a daughter born between former Lordship candidate Lady Brazius and the eldest son of Lady Georgine, Lady Alsteade. He's a kid between former Lordship candidates, so the amount of magic to be a Lordship candidate won't be a problem at all. We have heard that there are plans to hold the baptismal ceremony of Lady Benedicta with Lady Dietrinde and Lady Ferdinand as parents.
"We need a Lordship candidate other than Retizia to stabilize this faction... and Benedicta is more comfortable than Ferdinand and that Dietrinde kid from Aerenfest, whose mother is uncertain."
As Couscous laughed at each other, the proximity of an adult who did not go to the House of Lords put his hand on his mouth and looked around at us.
"Master Ferdinand was unexpectedly competent. Civilians were talking about a lot of late errands being cleaned up."
"Well, did you?
"Although, of course, the competence and magic of your clerical work are separate"
"I hope the star knot ends soon and there will be more people able to provide magic. Both Geebes seem tough."
There was such a chatter that there was no other love, but as soon as Lynn and the bell rang, we would get up and head to Master Georgine's room.
I will be informed of the information that has been laid down so far, and I will see how frustrated Dietrinde is that you are, but there was a satisfied Dietrinde there. Master Georgine is smiling too, so I guess we had a satisfactory conversation between you two.
"Okay, Mother. I beg your pardon."
"Yep. Have a good day."
As soon as I got back to the room, I was ready for tea and the sides were collected. If you don't know what you're talking about with Master Georgine and how Master Dietrinde is going to behave, you can't move any closer.
"What story did you have with Master Georgine, Dear Dietrinde?
"We must have talked about the words of the head of the temple in the central temple, too, right?
Lady Dietrinde, who had a gentle cup of tea, laughed furiously. Shine deep green eyes like you're good at and look around the sides.
"Me, I will look for Gluthris Height for my next Zent. Please help me out."
"... has Master Georgine been granted permission?
You are confident and spoken of after talking to Master Georgine, so you must have been allowed to do so. Still, I can't believe it right away. He looked around at us bewildered, and Lady Dietrinde smiled and nodded.
"Of course, your mother has supported my resolve. All you have to do is make an effort to get what you want. You said that even if it seemed out of reach at first sight, if you did everything you could possibly get it."
I didn't think Mr. Georgine would say such a thing, and we looked at each other unexpectedly.
"But then who will be Aub Ahrensbach? There are now Lordship candidates in Arlensbach who can only be Aub..."
"Yep. So it's only been a year since I gave you permission to be the next Zent. If in the meantime I cannot find gluthrithheit, I will be the next Aub"
Aub's death is reported at the Lords' Conference, so it is not uncommon that the underlying magic has not been completely dyed depending on the time of death. It was for that reason that Lady Dietrinde was told never to speak out in the House of Lords about Aub's death. It would not be so unnatural to delay Dear Dietrinde's inauguration of Aub for a year, as those in other territories would never know when Aub was dying.
Perhaps it is Georgine's idea to make him give up Master Dietrinde by putting a deadline of "only for a year". You can't possibly find a Gluthris Height that the royal family has been looking for for for years and couldn't find in just one year. If Dear Dietrinde hangs out to find Gluthris Height for just one year, he's settled in a little bit if you think he'll get an Aub later with no problems.
... That's Mr. Georgine. That you are familiar with Dear Dietrinde's method of maneuvering.
However, put your index finger on your chin so Dear Dietrinde can think a little bit, and look up a little. Most of the time when you're thinking this way, you make suggestions and orders that annoy your surroundings. Tensions ran to the surrounding sides.
"I'd like to be able to side with public opinion in the way that, if possible, we should look for Gluthris Height and choose a legitimate Zent during that year's respite...... Lady Traokvar doesn't have a Gluthris Height, so if I get a Gluthris Height, I'll have to give up Zent's seat, won't I?
I don't think Dear Dietrinde would do that kind of thinking. It must be the advice of Master Georgine. In other words, it seems that Master Georgine really intends to make Master Dietrinde his next Zent.
Instead of flattering Dear Dietrinde in the current situation, where Arlensbach's magic is scarce and troubled, I have been feeling so anxious, not grasping the sincerity of Master Georgine, who gives the next Zent a push.
"We understand that Dear Dietrinde is going for the next Zent, but what will happen to the magic that pours into the foundation of Ahrensbach?
"I asked my mother to be an Aub once and a year deadline came and she offered me a suggestion that if I hadn't found Gluthrithheit, I would dye the foundation, but her mother refused to want to be an Aub Ahrensbach"
Unfortunately, and Master Dietrinde is exhaling, but that's normal. Master Dietrinde may not be realizing it because he is your own mother, but there will be no aristocracy to endorse, such as Georgine from Aerenfest becoming Aub Aerensbach.
"I had no choice, so I decided to pour it from between the supplies so I wouldn't dye it completely. I'm going to ask Retizia to help me, too."
Everyone was surprised by Dear Dietrinde's words and looked out for them.
"Master Retizia hasn't been admitted to the House of Lords yet, has she?
"Oh? Aerenfest says the Lord's Candidate, who has finished his baptism ceremony, is being made to practice his magic supply. So there's no way he can't."
I say that with a terribly cold face, staring in the direction where Master Retizia's room is located. "Because I'm the next Aub," my spine trembled, looking completely different than when I didn't even put it on my teeth.
"Retizia is as desirable as the king or your father wants it to be to the next Aub. That much you'll be able to do. The king really wants Aub Ahrensbach to succeed Letitzia, and by royal decree I will be the relaying Aub. It's unpleasant."
... Oh, you've also been informed that it's a relay aub.
Lady Dietrinde grew up with little attention from her parents, and her father wanted it to be a relay from Lady Retizia and Lady Benedicta from her mother. Regardless of whether Dear Dietrinde deserves that status, I can also see why you are even more obsessed with Zent above Aub.
"Our magic supply alone is very difficult to support the magic of Arlensbach, so we ask Ferdinand to do the temple's divine work."
"Are you going to send those who will be spouses of Aub to the temple!?
"Yep. Because at Aerenfest, you were performing a divine service in a temple, and didn't Aerenfest show the usefulness of that divine service? Master Ferdinand cannot focus his magic on the magic of the foundation until the star knot is over, so we ask you to focus your magic on other parts."
Indeed, the usefulness of divinity was guaranteed by royalty at this year's service ceremony in the House of Lords. You won't be in Arlensbach, such as a nobleman who wants to head to the temple, but you won't have a particular sense of repentance if you were ever in the temple, Master Ferdinand.
"But is Master Dietrinde okay? You said you didn't like marrying dirty lord candidates like you were in the temple..."
It was really rough when I decided to get engaged to Master Ferdinand. I was a lord candidate who was in the temple of the lower territories, so I can also understand Dear Dietrinde's rejection. But there is no escape in royal fate.
I finally got a little positive about my marriage when I actually saw what Master Ferdinand looked like and heard stories all around me about how close I was to him and how he was doing best and great. I guess what Master Ferdinand said about "making the best efforts for Master Dietrinde" also drove me back.
... Whatever the contents are, if they are of good standing and appearance, they will be taken care of by your Highness. I learned so much.
"Alas, if I become the next Zent, I can eliminate my present royal life. You won't have to marry Master Ferdinand, will you? Master Ferdinand doesn't deserve Zent's spouse. You all think so, don't you? I have trouble dissolving my engagement when I couldn't be Zent, so I'm just going to keep it going for a while."
Lady Dietrinde laughed huffily. I'm a selfish Dear Dietrinde who just uses it and dissolves his engagement if his wishes come true, but I didn't feel anything in particular because I haven't always seen anything ahead like this at all.
... In the end, I think I'm going to marry Master Ferdinand, who offered to go to the temple herself without finding Gluthris Height, but how is it going to be rough then?
"To dissolve my engagement, I have to get a gluthris height in the course of a year at all costs. Of course, it's not just for the dissolution of the engagement that I want Gluthris Height. I'm not even thinking about Ahrensbach."
That's what Lady Dietrinde said and smiled nicely.
"The first step is to return Master Brazius to the Lords' clan, who was dropped by the royal fate, and put your sister or Master Brazius on the seat of Aub."
"If you can do that, Arlensbach is cheap."
If the former Lordship Candidates, Lady Brazius and Lady Alsteade, who were dropped by senior aristocrats, could be Aub of Arlensbach, the kind of anxiety that must now be entrusted to Lady Dietrinde for the future would disappear.
... Hopefully, we're talking about.
Mindful of the words of his closest friends, Master Dietrinde begins to state what orders he will give when he becomes Zent.
"Give me what your mother wants, and I will find my son-in-law who deserves the next Zent. Even if I become Zent, I do not intend to be as solemn as Lady Traokvar. The royal family now has a lot of respect."
It would be a great pleasure to take Prince Gigisvalt or Prince Anasterzius as his own son-in-law from Lady Adolphine and Lady Eglantine, Dietrinde laughed. Basically, it's a resentment, but it still seems to have it at its root that you were reprimanded or disliked at the House of Lords Tea Party.
Since Master Dietrinde won't ever have the Gluthris Height in his hands, it would be best to let him do as much as he likes with his delusions.
"Dietrinde said briefly that he would make the prince his son-in-law, but doing so would discredit the world."
"Yep. Especially since Prince Anastasius and Lady Eglantine gave up the throne and married you after a passion..."
Dear Dietrinde was frowned upon as muddled by the words of his closest friends. Understanding that you're going to be in a bit of a bad mood, one person says, "More than that, isn't it that Master Ferdinand refuses to dissolve his engagement?" and shift the topic away from royalty.
"Though I find it reluctant to return to the temple of the lower realm with the dissolution of my engagement with Lady Dietrinde, who became Zend"
"I have no problem with that. I'm going to ask Ferdinand to give me his name so that I can't go against mine."
Everyone looked at me with surprise that I said "I ask you to give me your name" too easily, but Master Dietrinde will continue to look good at it in a way that I don't notice at all.
"He's a Lordship candidate who was in a temple in a lower territory like Aerenfest. If you love me, you can give me your name, and I really need your name because I have trouble talking to Bella about what happened to Arlensbach when he returned to Aerenfest after the engagement was dissolved. That's what your mother said."
... although I very much don't think Master Ferdinand would accept that where he wanted how much.
"Martina. I want Ferdinand's name, please. I need you to get ready."
Dear Dietrinde, it is a nearby task to hang out with me. Me and the other side of the service began to move to fulfill my wishes.
"Master Ferdinand loves me, doesn't he? Then give me your name."
Mr. Ferdinand, who was summoned on his way to the conference room where we were set up, looked surprised at Mr. Dietrinde's sudden offer. This must be natural. There is no way that anyone can accept being told to suddenly give their name.
We watched with interest how Ferdinand could withdraw from Dietrinde's request, although we would not be able to give him his name. Dear Dietrinde, we are more helpful in the direction of his anger.
"Give my name to Master Dietrinde? Does that mean we give each other names?
Speaking of which, you had a story about two people who really loved each other doing that, and Master Ferdinand muttered. Perhaps it was also influenced by the love story, Ferdinand seems to have been interpreted, but Dietrinde looked uncomfortably at the place where "we give each other names". I'm not influenced by love stories. It's more selfish with me.
"No way. Why do I give my name to Master Ferdinand? If it's true, thank me for saving you from the temple of Aerenfest, and I think it's something you're offering."
I slowly shook my neck to the side as Master Ferdinand smiled softly at Master Dietrinde, who said that in his true face.
"I know I would if I could, but unfortunately, my name is not at my disposal right now"
Does that mean you've already made a name for yourself to someone? The occasion was greatly bothered by the unexpected reply.
"Who else did you give your name to besides me, my fiancée!?
Lady Ferdinand laughed furiously as she watched Lady Dietrinde raise her hysterical voice. The expression was laughing, but the thin gold eyes were grinning terribly cold, not at all.
"To tie me up, there have been two women who wanted a name. With you, and then, Master Veronica.... you two are in a relationship of grandmother and granddaughter, but you are really very similar"
