Ascendance of a Bookworm

The advanced ceremony begins with three bells. Feeling the atmosphere in the dorm that is bumpy about preparation, I have my hair tied to the leaselator and Bertilde. Brunhilde and Greater are off to hand out hair decorations to freshman girls.

"Bertilde is good at tying hair"

"Me, I like tying my hair. Elvira praised me."

Bertilde fixes my hair as I chat about what work I was doing when I was serving my mother and what I was talking about with my mother. Such bertilde rose pink hair was decorated with hair decorations that were given to freshman girls and hair decorations that were given to them for school admission by their parents.

It can also be seen from the fact that the leaselator, who had been watching Bertilde for some time, started preparing hair decorations and checking luggage along the way, passing as a side-service apprentice.

"Dear Rosemayne, may I accompany you to the rapprochement in Matthias, Röderich and Brunhilde?

"Yeah, Lieselator."

"Here's information from the civilians who were going to gather information yesterday, but it looks like there's a new candidate for Lordship in Classenburg this year. Shall I give you your name again for when I say hello?

He understands that I was immersed in reading and hadn't heard it, and Rezelator laughs like a prank.

"Please"

"I am the princess of the Third Lady of Aub Klassenburg, and I am Lady Janciane. Probably going to be face-to-face again and again about the service."

... Dear Janciane, Dear Janciane...

I repeated in my heart several times, remembering my name.

"Good morning, Master Rosemaine"

"Good morning, Darmuel"

When I finished preparing and went to the multi-purpose hall, there was Darmuel. Although there are also Haltmut and Brother Cornelius, they are not so uncomfortable because they have been together in the House of Lords. But I can't help but wonder that I'm unfamiliar with having Darmuel in the multi-purpose hall. I don't think he's ever just wearing a blue cleric costume.

"Leonore and Angelica, thank you for today."

Darmuel and the others are wearing the blue cleric costume today because we have a meeting with the people of the Central Temple while we go to an advanced ceremony or a rapprochement. I don't know who's coming out of Classenburg, but I got word from Eglantine in today's designation.

"I'll leave the dedication ceremony meeting to Haltmoot. Everyone else should be careful not to let Haltmoot run too fast."

"Yes, sir."

There is going to be another conflict between Immanuel and Haltmut, and I ask that Brother Cornelius and Darmuel, who I will go with, be very careful.

"Rosemayne would have some friends to see for a long time, wouldn't she? Enjoy the rapport. Come."

"Yes, Brother Cornelius"

Brother Cornelius sent me out, and I went out into the entrance hall. He is a student in the entrance hall with an Aerenfest cloak. Tense faceted freshman is cute. Brunhilde and Charlotte had arranged for me, so the hair of all Aerenfest students is crunchy.

"So, shall we go? Freshmen should be careful not to lose their capes and brooches, and then remember the number of Aerenfest's doors. You won't be able to go back to the dorm."

We walked out the door to the auditorium by decree of Wilfried.

Although there have been some variations in the order of territory, it has not changed much. All we have to do is line up at number 8.

The usual advanced ceremony begins and a lecture will be explained. It will be communicated that the acquisition of Stalp has become a third year student, as decided at the Lords' Conference, and that the old curriculum will be changed to the contents of lectures that have been significantly incorporated in connection with it.

"Me, I was looking forward to getting a stamp..."

Bertilde pointed his lips slightly dissatisfied. The surrounding freshman year also seems somewhat unhappy. Even if it were announced that the curriculum would be changed, some would be dissatisfied if the reasons were not given.

"I know what you want as soon as possible because Starp is a testament to nobility, but it's better to get it as late as possible."

"Really?

"Yep. I found that I get a lot of protection from the gods with devotion and prayer. If you have great fluctuations in your magic, you may not be able to handle your magic in the Starp you acquire at one year. Curriculum changes are meant to prevent it. If you have a freshman in another realm who is dissatisfied with you during your lecture, please tell him so."

Bertilde replied, seemingly convinced, "Okay," and Nicolaus nodded cocklessly, apparently listening nearby.

At the end of the advanced ceremony, it will move divided by rank for the rapport. We Lords' candidates each move to the small hall with three sides.

"From 8th Aerenfest, there were Dear Vilfleet, Rosemayne and Charlotte"

We enter the small hall prompted by the voice of a man like a civilian standing before the door. Inside, Hildebrandt sat just like last year.

"The threads of Drefangua, goddess of time, have crossed again this year, and this is how you can see them"

It's also every year that Aerenfest's order comes around and Wilfried greets him on behalf of them. I confront Hildebrandt with Wilfried and Charlotte sandwiched.

"Zent also expects this year's service ceremony. I am not officially enrolled yet, but Zent allowed me to participate, saying that the service ceremony of an intermediate aristocrat who dropped one class would be less burdensome. I look forward to participating in the House of Lords for the first time."

Nico and Hildebrandt said that in a fun way.

... Magic compression to put in the underground library, studying ancient languages, Prince Hildebrandt is really a hard-worker, isn't he? I can't believe you're not in the House of Lords yet.

Now they're going to attend the service as royalty. If you actively participate in divinity from now on, you will get a lot of protection from the gods. I think Hildebrandt is the most likely person in the current royal family to be Zent.

"I think it's great that Prince Hildebrandt is a positive and hard-working man, because it's very important that the royal family that unifies Jürgenschmidt actively participate in divinity. I hope the service ceremony will be a difficult experience for Prince Hildebrandt."

Encouraging Hildebrandt to get off the stage, he will go around saying hello to the upper realm. At first, it's Crassenburg. A girl who was not as tall as me at the Classenburg table followed her side and smiled and greeted me with a smile. She's a cute girl with blue eyes in her colored hair. I thought the atmosphere was very Classenburg feminine.

We, the Lord's Candidates of Aerenfest, kneel down and greet each other first time.

"Dear Janciane, allow me to pray for blessings to the tough sorted and rare encounter of the god of life, Averibe"

"I forgive you."

With the blessings that popped out of the ring, Janciane had an elegant smile that felt similar to Eglantine and Primvale.

"Aub told me that Aerenfest and I would have a dedication ceremony as a collaborative study. As you can see, I know I'm often confused about research that I'm unfamiliar with in my freshman year. Dear Rosemaine, thank you for your guidance."

"Nice to meet you, Dear Janciane"

Finishing my greeting with Classenburg, it's Dunkelferger. Hannelore stands alone this year because Lestiraut has graduated. Hannelore smiled with a friendly smile when her eyes met. I also return a nickel and a grin.

I gently pushed my back out, taking off the hand that Wilfried was escorting as he whispered "Rosemaine". Since I am the one closest to Hannelore, he seems to give me a place to greet him.

"The threads of Drefangua, goddess of time, have exchanged again this year, and this is how we have been able to see you. Long time no see, Master Hannelore."

Unlike the other students, Hannelore and I meet at the Lords' Conference, but it hasn't changed for a long time.

"There are a number of books this year that will please Dunkelferger. There are ditter stories with Dear Restylaut's paintings, and there are Dunkelferger's history books out there. There are three volumes of the Fernestine story, but you've already read it, haven't you?

The Hannelore escort knight man showed great interest in Aerenfest's new book, but didn't seem to touch Hannelore's harp line.

"Yeah, I was very impressed with the end of the Fernestine story. Don't you have a new book on Love Stories in the House of Lords this year? I'm very excited about all the lovely love stories..."

"Of course you do. Let's borrow the book again this year."

"Yeah, I'm looking forward to it"

When the two of us finish laughing and greeting each other, we move on to the front of Drevanhell next. Although there are several Lordship candidates here and more Lordship candidates are smaller than last year, it is Oltveen who stands as a delegate. Wilfried says hello and is invited to do some collaborative research this year.

"Unfortunately, we are stuck with plans this year for joint research into divine relations with Classenburg and Flaberturk. Individuals still find it difficult to do a great deal of research on cooperation between territories."

"You mean you need a subject that can spark interest and cooperation... I think I need to talk to Dr. Gundorf."

Oltveen looked at me as he said so. Looks like you're trying to pull me out of Gundorf into collaborative research, just like last year.

... Whatever Dr. Gundorf says, I won't.

The research I would like to do as much as possible in the House of Lords is to create magic tools for the library, and I would like to help Muriella and Lymund improve the transition team in search of a leap in the printing industry. But I'm busy getting ready to move to the center this year. Maybe we'll have to check the outhouse, and we'll need to pick a side in the center. It is visible that there will be more discussions with the royalty.

Finally, I am busy in both the House of Lords and Aerenfest because of the clogged schedule of service ceremonies. At Aerenfest, we have to take the blue apprentices back to the service ceremony, we'll need meeting time with the nobles returning from the center, and we have to ask various people to do something later.

Given what we're going to do at Aerenfest, I want to take the return period as long as possible, so to be honest, I also doubt we'll be able to get some research time on the library's magic equipment. So much so that he thinks that if he sucks, he might end up keeping the material in Hillsur.

...... ha. It's what I knew, but I may not have much time to do whatever I want.

Step away from the front of Drevanhell with your head full of things to do this winter in mind. Gillessenmaier and Houfretze then left Charlotte to say hello. Luzinde of Guillesenmeier introduced me to my brother and sister.

My brother is a sophomore and he just adopted in the fall. As far as I know, Guillesenmeier's Lordship candidates are all girls, so it's not uncommon to adopt more Lordship candidates with blood men to get son-in-law in the same territory. I'm sure it's to get my siblings married. However, it is rare to adopt at a critical time when it is divided into specialized courses.

Haufratze also has a sibling, although a sixth-grade woman greets her on behalf. I hear Wilfried has a little interaction with his brother. My sister says she's a freshman.

"... Kind of a lot of new Lords candidates this year. There's a sudden increase in numbers."

"Haven't Haltmut said that adoption seems to be on the rise because of the way the gods have been protected and their known effects?"

The same goes for the fact that I didn't hear Janciane's name, but she was listening to a lot of reports. At the age prior to splitting into specialist courses, he said, there were more advanced nobles and Aub adoptions of his magically problem-free blood clan.

"Hartmoot told me to pass information on to me and Charlotte so they wouldn't disturb the important reading time of a long time, but he was reporting directly next to me, right? Isn't it strange that you haven't asked me how much or what?

"It's not uncommon or strange not to hear the surroundings when you're reading. Yesterday was a really long time reading, so it's also true that you forgot me and immersed yourself in it."

... Nevertheless, to avoid disturbing the important reading time of a long time... What is that, a haltmoot, but not cool? I almost cummed by accident.

I am very happy to spoil you with securing reading time, but I have trouble not getting the report. From now on, let me ask you to make the report sweet in the direction of stringing it and making it read.

While I was thinking about that, Wilfried was finishing his greeting to Arlensbach. This year, when Dietrinde has graduated and Retizia is not yet enrolled, it seems that Dietrinde's nearby Martina is out as a delegate.

"How are your uncle and Dear Dietrinde?

"Yeah, thanks to Master Ferdinand, Arlensbach is very helpful. With the foundation stained, we can also help you supply magic."

... Huh!? Even though I haven't had a star knot ritual yet, I even provide magic as well as clerical and divine affairs!?

When I looked at Martina in surprise, Martina smiled troubled.

"Because Dear Dietrinde was to swallow the tyrannical royal fate of giving him a hidden room before the star knot was over, instead, Master Ferdinand said he wanted to take on the magic supply, though before the star knot was over. Being really sweet."

The Hidden Room demanded the Hidden Room from Arlensbach's insanity, who could not marry but would not return to Aerenfest. I think it's strange to demand even more magic for a hidden room.

... Did you really take it from Master Ferdinand? Like we gathered at a prayer ceremony. Is Master Ferdinand up to something? Or Arlensbach's lobbying to not be blamed by the surroundings?

Watching Martina ask Vilfleet how Aurelia is doing, I think. Both seem possible and I don't know the truth.

I came back to Aerenfest's seat while I was thinking about it. From here on out we will wait for the lower realm to come and say hello.

When Inmeldink came to greet him, Mullenroyer, one grade above me, smiled with purple hair paid parsley. Be more alert to the mixed grin of sympathy, contempt and ridicule.

"Will Master Rosemayne be able to dissolve his adoption and become head of the temple of the central temple? Though to extend the importance of divinity to Jürgenschmidt, it's hard to be dropped by a senior nobleman from a lord candidate and into the central temple. How pathetic..."

... Rumor has it that he will be the head of the temple in the central temple, and it seems to be flowing well in other realms.

The nobility of Aerenfest seems to have judged by the overlap of clandestine calls from the royalty, but did he see the nobility of other territories being called in the same way? Or, incited by Georgine of Arlensbach, "The Virgin of Aerenfest should be the Temple Head of the Central Temple!" Is it the territory that I wished for the royal family? There are likely to be a number of territories that think it's a good feeling for the Virgin to be taken away from Aerenfest, even from the fact that she has a couscous and a laughing voice.

"I never got a story from Zent about letting Rosemaine into the central temple"

That's exactly what I said to Wilfried. Mullenroyer said, "Oh?," blinked Orange's eyes. The perimeter draws attention here, on purpose.

"That can't be right. At the Lords' Conference, Aub Aerenfest is invited by the King."

"It is true that the royal family has spoken to the head of the temple of the central temple, but nothing has been decided yet."

Once I affirmed Mullenroyer's claim, I smiled nicely. In Mullenroyer's brain I seem to be certain of the advanced aristocratic fallout, but no matter what happens first, I'm now a Lordship Candidate and Aerenfest is superior. I don't have the in-laws to shut up and listen to you say whatever you want.

"In my frailty, it is very impossible to go out to other realms and do divinity. So, starting with the royalty, the Lords' clans everywhere will be asked to go to the Central Temple to remember the divinity, Aub Aerenfest replied. Depending on Zent's judgment, we may be able to meet Lord Mullenroyer at the Central Temple, who has put together a blue witch apprenticeship costume after next year."

When I became head of the central temple, the lord clan of all the territories, including the royal family, took me on the road, and Mullenroyer changed his complexion. You look like you've never thought about being allowed into a temple.

"There will be no central temple entry in Rosemaine unless there is an answer from the royal family and the aubs everywhere to the central temple"

Having answered with clarity against Inmeldink, no one came to talk about entering the central temple afterwards.

Wilfried and Charlotte were talking about collaborative research with the upper classmates of Flavelturk. Since this joint study will be centred on the two of us, I will take a step back and listen. Apparently the nobles are trying their best to go to the temple and get some protection or increase the yield.

... Speaking of which, Aerenfest nobles don't come to the temple except in business talks with the Lower Town.

I spent my goodwill time with that sentiment. It was a lively rapport with more junior year lord candidates.

When we returned to the dorm, Hultmoot and the others returned to the multi-purpose hall. I shall hear a report about the service ceremony as soon as possible. Of course, Wilfried and Charlotte, who perform service at intermediate and junior levels, are with us.

"Good luck negotiating. How was it decided?

"Since it is a joint study of Classenburg and Aerenfest and not a lecture, lecture time cannot be vacated and a service ceremony will be held in the form of the use of earthly days"

As a student, I want to pray so that I can experience divinity and increase my protection a little faster, but as a teacher, I cannot free up time for lectures because I position joint research as a time to be done by those who wish to finish lectures. For this reason, they decided to recruit those who wished to perform a service ceremony on Saturday.

"Collaborative research is not a lecture, so there is no obligation for all students to participate, and making one special provision would be a hassle later. At the earliest possible time outside of lecture time, you'll have to use a dirt day."

I thought Crassenburg would push it more, but it didn't seem like it. He said he wanted the central temple to be done at once because it didn't have to be done so many times, but it was rejected because there was too much difference in magic power between junior nobles and lord candidates.

"I had eaten down many times by Master Eglantine, but Imanuel was also eventually unable to argue, given examples of blue clerics and witches who had lost consciousness at the service ceremony of the Lords' Council"

Hultmoot laughed happily.

"Then, according to Lady Eglantine, Prince Hildebrandt will drop class for safety and attend the service of intermediate nobility, and in the lower grades he seems to propose to attend the service of one lower class"

He stroked down his chest like Charlotte was horny at Hartmoot's words.

"It's good to be less dangerous. It's really hard to supply magic without getting used to it."

"Junior aristocrats in lower grades may want to see each other participate. It's hard to figure out what's left of your magic power when you're supplying it."

Wilfried also nodded at Charlotte's words.

"So on which earthly day were we supposed to have a service ceremony?

"Given Master Rosemayne's return to Aerenfest, we decided it would be a good idea to hold a service ceremony for the Lordship Candidates and the Upper Class on the first Saturday. Week two becomes intermediate aristocracy, week three becomes lower aristocracy."

Humph, and as I nodded, Brother Cornelius glared at Hartmoot disgruntled.

"Given Rosemaine's physical condition, I suggested I should start the service ceremony with a lower nobleman and advanced the third week..."

The first week is really packed with lectures, so the first dirt day is mandatory for rest, and Brother Cornelius suggested that the third week of dirt day, which is finishing the lecture, should be my service ceremony.

"It was hard to disagree with Cornelius, who wanted to make Rosemaine's health a top priority, and Hartmoot, who wanted Rosemaine to return to Aerenfest a little sooner but too late in the third week"

When Darmuel exhales, Leonore also shakes his head with a tired face.

"Master Eglantine has arbitrated, and it is more desirable to do so in order of identity, making it the first week of the service ceremony for the Lordship Candidates and senior nobles."

"Were you in conflict in front of the royal family?

Charlotte and Vilfleet round their eyes. I was surprised, too.

... What the hell are you doing, both of you!?

"You're both the main idea, and Master Eglantine was bitterly laughed at, but I didn't feel alive"

To what Darmuel and Leonore taught us with a slightly farsighted eye, "I can't believe you said that in front of a royal family!" And I wanted to hold my head. I think I know what it's like to have parents with heads in my teasing.

"Next time I must apologize to Master Eglantine"
