Ascendance of a Bookworm

When Gigisvalt was talking to Solange about Rosemaine's presence and role in the library, he heard a little noise upstairs. With a leaky voice, Gigisvalt unwittingly turns his gaze to the staircase leading to the upstairs viewing room. Soon I stopped hearing voices and became quiet.

After a while, two men in blue cleric costumes came down the stairs. The two kneel before Gigisvalt and open their mouths as Aerenfest cleric Hartmut looks sorry.

"Prince Gigisvalt, I'm very afraid, but Master Rosemayne has said he wants to do some reading from now on. It's Saturday. It's a day off if it's supposed to be, and the ritual is already over. Cleanup will be done by the Central Temple and by Crassenburg, and all confirmations will be made by me, the Chief Cleric. Could you please listen to the Lord's wishes, which I cannot even afford to read slowly for a while?

I came to the library to supply magic with myself, a royalty, and I didn't think Gigisvalt would suddenly do the reading even though I hadn't said anything until then. Rosemaine immerses herself in the book regardless of disrespect or anything when she starts reading, but Gigisvalt also knows that it is quite sensible until she starts reading it.

Though I perceived that there was something behind it, I suspected that it was not something I could say to myself surrounded by the proximity in front of Solange, and Gigisvalt gave permission to Haltmoot's offer.

"I allow Rosemaine to read. Instead, ask the chief clergyman to accompany you to the deepest part in order to confirm the deepest part."

"Yes, I did. Darmuel, after you, please."

The blue cleric, called Darmuel, nods quietly and returns to the browsing room upstairs.

Dropped off by Solange, Gigisvalt, who took his side, left the library with Haltmut. Hand Haltmoot the bug proof magic equipment and start walking to the central building.

"So what happened to Rosemaine?

"Neglected disappeared on the way to the magic supply."

What are you talking about, swallowing the word up to his throat, Gigisvalt laughs nicholly.

"What do you mean, he disappeared?

"According to the magic equipment from the library that was on the spot, she went to the gentleman. When I asked about Tajima, I got the answer that it was old and great. Do you know what the royals are?

Though he was smiling calmly and talking forward, from Haltmoot he felt a slight excitement or a rush of emotional swings. I guess I'm not lying, Gigisvalt decides. Lying to the royal family about such things will do nothing.

"When is Rosemaine planning to return? Didn't the library magic equipment say anything about that?

Other than Rosemaine, Gigisvalt wouldn't have cared. However, it is very difficult to be the king's adopted daughter in the spring and suddenly not know where Rosemaine is going to get Gluthrithheit.

"... they don't know when to go back. It could be back at the moment, maybe three days from now. I don't want to make a fuss about this right now. Lady Rosemayne was ill due to the fatigue of the service ceremony. I plan to do that in Aerenfest for a while."

"I'll tell Father alone tonight, but I'll keep it in my father's chest until the next dirt day"

If we are to be gone for more than a week, as royalty, we need to set aside a place for discussion. That's how important Rosemaine is when royalty is planned. After a week of respite, Haltmut loosened his expression a little and laughed "I'm afraid so," he said.

When Gigisvalt and the others returned, they had been cleaned up by the men of the central temple during the deepest part of the day. Haltmut looks around as noble representative, and Gigisvalt closes the deepest between as royalty.

That night, Gigisvalt told his father, Traokvar, alone, Rosemaine's disappearance and that Aerenfest would deal externally with it as ill. Too little judgment material to beat your hands on. Having become a difficult face, Traokvar exhaled slowly.

"If you do think you might want to get back soon, you should avoid making a fuss at this time of year. Let's do as Aerenfest asks."

The next Saturday, if Rosemaine did not return to the service ceremony to be held by gathering intermediate nobles, the day would have ended with a royal decision to discuss her disappearance.

Then a week later, Rosemayne didn't show up. I drop off Hildebrandt, who came to greet me nervously to take part in my first divinity, saying, as he asks the people of Aerenfest how Rosemaine is doing, and I tell Anastasius and Eglantine that I need to talk to him after dinner. It is difficult in time for Eglantine, who gave birth to a girl at the end of the fall, to join the discussion after dinner.

Last fall, Naelache, then still the First Lady of Gigisvalt, gave birth to a boy, and six months later, during the Lords' Conference, Eglantine's pregnancy was discovered.

What an Eglantine prayer at the temple, she was told by God that she was pregnant with a girl. They told me to stop praying because of the magic and the strain on my body, and they returned the magic I gave them as a blessing.

The royal family was in a great hurry, though he was careful not to leak it outside. Until then, Adolphine, who had just married Nahr Elach, who had completed a minimum period of breastfeeding, would be responsible for what Eglantine had done with her magic, and Eglantine was exempted from touring the temple to focus her magic on giving birth.

Now Eglantine is a teacher in the House of Lords with a hard postpartum body to show her surroundings that she is no different from last year. I find it quite difficult, though Naerälache has reduced the burden by having half the school year.

It was nevertheless Nahr Elache, who had to welcome Adolphine to the First Lady while holding her newborn son, who was rushed back to power by Eglantine's birth control. I am still reducing the burden of Eglantine in the House of Lords.

As for the authenticity of Gigisvalt, I take it for granted that Eglantine, who wanted a child, would do some imposing. Whatever Anastasius says, I can't give in there.

I really wanted Gigisvalt and Adolphine to wait for her to get pregnant until she had a boy. At the very least, not now that neither Zent nor the next Zent has gotten Gluthris Heights, Gigisvalt wants Rosemaine to have waited for her pregnancy until she royalized in and got Gluthris Heights or more people who could magically supply her.

... I am certainly delighted to have more royalty, but Father is too sweet.

Unless it was a magical year with a service ceremony in the House of Lords and the Lords' Conference, and when Rosemayne discovered she was likely to get a gluthris height, Gigisvalt would not have been able to please Eglantine's birth control.

I'm really glad Eglantine gave birth to a girl, Gigisvalt sincerely thinks. Aub Krasenburg uses that hand to try to be a little more vocal, so if it was a boy who was born, he would have tried to make Anastasius the next king of anything.

Gigisvalt is well aware of how vulnerable a royal family without gluthrithheit is. Still, you have to behave like a royalty by pretending you don't know it, so if Eglantine wishes Jurgenschmitt stability by stopping the intervention in Classenburg, she wanted enough consideration to give up her child for a while.

... I know it's mostly because of Anastasius, but it's more emotional than Eglantine being able to stop that one.

Have dinner listening to Hildebrandt at his service ceremony. Although the pillars of magical light did not stand, as they did during Rosemaine, it seems that the Divine Fixtures glowed in their precious colors. It seems a lot different from the service ceremony where a seven-colored column of light stood simultaneously from the divine objects held by the statues of the gods, manipulated by too many magical streams. While slightly dissatisfied with it, Hildebrandt seems happy to be able to participate in his first divinity.

After dinner, Anastasius and Eglantine joined. Line up the neighbors, become royalty alone, and talk about Rosemaine's disappearance using anti-bugging magic equipment. He told her that he had disappeared neglectfully upstairs in the library and that the library magic equipment had said, "I went to your temple".

"Huh? Was it a lie that Rosemaine was lying down?

"It's Aerenfest's hope that you don't want to make things rough," he nods to Hildebrandt, who rounds his eyes, asking him how Aerenfest is doing.

"... it was normal. Thank you for the fact that Rosemaine is still lying down and for the words of sympathy of the royal family."

I guess Aerenfest is still going to lay low on Rosemayne's disappearance, Gigisvalt decided.

"Eglantine, how are things in the House of Lords? Is there anything leaking about Rosemaine's disappearance?

"No, no one seems to suspect it's been in the hospital bed for a long time.... Is it about Dr. Flaurelm? It's strange to be in a hospital bed this long," he said.

Who was Flaurelm, Gigisvalt explored his memories and remembered the presence of a teacher who had seen Rosemaine as his enemy. I want Arlensbach to have a little more decent teachers.

... No, then Aerenfest is the same.

The Hirschühl thing, which only turned to research, shook Gigisvalt's head and also remembered the central nobility who sent him back to Aerenfest to gather information. I think it would be a good idea to gather some decent information this year. It's true that Aerenfest is a territory with little information and no common sense meshing and not sure what you're thinking.

"Nor is there any noticeable change in the state of the House of Lords due to Lady Rosemaine's absence. Certain people seem to be worried and personally sympathizing, but they are originally weak, and will return to Aerenfest after completing the House of Lords lecture as soon as possible. Lady Rosemayne is more normal than not in lectures."

Rosemaine does all the things that come to her attention when she attends lectures, but she's the rare best at not being in the House of Lords being normal. Having finished the lecture as quickly as possible and returning for the service ceremony, face-to-face is more unusual.

"Though many territories seem to be applying to Aerenfest for social contact with Lady Rosemayne, it seems that Lady Wilfried and Lady Charlotte have responded as usual"

Seems like it's really business as usual. They don't see any particular change in Aerenfest students either. It feels a lot longer even though the Lordship Candidate has neglected to disappear and is about to have a week.

"You have to think about when Rosemaine doesn't come back."

That's what Traokvar said with a sad face. This past year the royalty has acted on the assumption that Rosemayne would get a gluthris height. I can also be somewhat impotent if I eventually get a gluthris height, but if I don't, I have to change my response.

Because Traokvar and Gigisvart have no patronage of the Great God, they must go around the small temple and pray. However, it is difficult to perform the kind of service that the old Zent candidate would use all of his time in the House of Lords to do in parallel with the executive.

Moreover, small shrines are made by individuals to make it easier for those with insufficient attributes to offer prayers to certain gods, not by Zent. For this reason, things did not go easily because there were only already broken temples and statues of God, or because they were not made, or because some temples were difficult to discover.

Although Father managed to obtain all the attributes because there were several kinship gods who were gaining protection in retrieval, Gigisvalt still retains the protection of the two kinship gods.

... and then it won't reach Gluthrithheit unless you still tour the big temple.

It's a distraction. I know exactly how awesome Rosemaine is getting there.

It was laid flat with seven colored columns of light set up at the service ceremony.

"Eglantine, just in case Rosemaine doesn't return, and after the period of time she has to milk the baby, she'll have them visit the temple as well"

"Father, then there is too much strain on Eglantine, and Crassenburg..."

Gigisvalt gently raised his hand to control Anastasius' protest.

"Now that we're seeing our way to Gluthris Height, getting Gluthris Height is a top priority for the royal family. If it is spring and the snow has broken but Rosemaine has not returned, it is most efficient to ask Eglantine, who has gained all the attributes from the beginning, whether it is a burden"

"But Eglantine is just after childbirth"

Traokvar slowly shakes his neck to the side of the eating anastasius.

"When Rosemaine did not return after the Lords' Council, which was due to royalty, I order Eglantine. You should be finishing a minimum period of breastfeeding by then. Naerache returned to me for the birth of Eglantine. Now it's Eglantine's turn. Ask him to carry out a tour of the temple as a royal duty."

"Yes, I did, Zent," Eglantine smiled and nodded, shrugging small.

"However, I would like you to return to Master Rosemaine as soon as possible. It's a pity that the best of the year will belong to other students."

Rosemaine, who was the best for three years in a row, would not be able to sustain it unless it was just time to go back. I remember Rosemayne laughing proudly at last year's awards ceremony when I first attended, and I felt like Gigisvalt was not in the mood either.

"Talk to Aerenfest if you don't get back by the dedication ceremony for the lower nobles. We need to ask how Aerenfest will respond and discuss what to do with Rosemaine's lecture. Because that territory cannot be counted in our common sense."

If you follow the common sense of nobility, you will be annoyed. I don't know what to deal with by standards. From now on, Rosemayne will be royal, but for royalty, Aerenfest and Rosemayne are unknown beings, making it harder for them to cope with orders alone than it is for her to obtain gluthrithheit. I have to find out by hand how to handle it.

... am I going to be my husband?

It looks good, it's rich in magic, it's supposed to be a nobleman of Jürgenschmidt, but Rosemaine is extremely uncomfortable with communication of will. Because I grew up in a temple, it's not the difference that I can make. Not only the nobility, but also the people of the central temple are completely different in their way of thinking. Gigisvalt, who met individually, realizes that.

Gigisvalt understands the words of Anastasius, who is silenced because it is of paramount priority to obtain gluthrithheit, and who is forbidden to make contact with Rosemayne, but who says, "I disagree with making Rosemayne power because the nobles are confused".

Rosemaine did not return after the service ceremony of the lower nobility. In front of the building to work Aerenfest, who made a lot of contributions at the service ceremony, a tea party is held under the auspices of the royalty by inviting the nobles who were in the service ceremony in their blue costumes. Exclusive to those in blue costumes, students in Classenburg are eliminated, although Lordship candidates near Rosemaine and Aerenfest are invited.

Not a blue costume today, but dressed in aristocratic costumes, many sides of Rosemaine came in ahead of Vilfleet and Charlotte. Haltmut, Cornelius, Leonore, Angelica, and then there are four students. Though nervous about the royal invitation, the Aerenfest people didn't seem too anxious or troubled.

Finish greeting, finish poison sight, and start talking about Rosemaine using range designated anti-bugging magic equipment.

"It's been a long absence, aren't you worried? Aerenfest will be tough too."

It was Vilfleet who answered Gigisvalt's question.

"I do worry. But Aerenfest had Rosemaine in place for over six months so she could manage without Rosemaine. So it's not that hard."

In an aristocratic roundabout, Vilfleet said it was the same in that Rosemaine would be pulled out to the center, or go under the temple, in that she would be gone. Shortly after Gigisvalt thinks about whether this is a crush on the royalty, he reckons that Aerenfest may change its meaning.

... It's really hard to talk to Aerenfest.

"I have trouble being absent for a long time, but I'm not so worried because I know Master Rosemaine is fine"

Those around me grin bitterly at Hartmoot's words. It is not surprising to Gigisvalt that the atmosphere is as natural as accepting Haltmut's words. It's where the possibility of Rosemaine even rising to a much higher level among royalty is emerging.

"Why can you tell me Rosemaine is fine?

"I can feel the magic of Lord Rosemaine. Even if Rosemayne has ever made it to much higher heights, we are going to offer it to you."

That's what Haltmoot said. Speaking of which, Gigisvalt recalls that there was something about taking even minors in the vicinity who made a famous dedication to the conditions of royalty. Is it the neighborhood where Haltmoot made his famous dedication?

Normally it is something that is not on the table, such as being named, but Haltmut told me in his natural face that he was under the influence of Rosemaine's magic, and he showed Gigisvalt the crest he was proudly lowering around his neck. It's the same one on the end of Aerenfest's book, the Rosemaine crest.

"By the day, Master Rosemaine's magic is getting stronger. I don't know where you are, but Master Rosemaine grows incredibly every day. This is how we live our daily lives, because we are sure that you are well."

... Haltmoot, who finds joy in being able to feel Rosemaine's magic, also comes with it in the center, right? Aerenfest's freak rate is going to rise again.

They're still going to leave Rosemayne asleep after this as Aerenfest. He's worried about his body, so he explains it to the surroundings like he sent him back to Aerenfest.

"Being caught up in a strange situation, I'm glad you ordered teachers to take exams for lectures as soon as possible when Rosemaine returns, or take care to stay in the House of Lords besides winter"

Gigisvalt nodded at Wilfried's words. If Rosemaine is to be royally admitted, it is a necessary measure without having to be asked to do so.

"Wilfried, let me ask you one thing. You're going to dissolve your engagement with Rosemaine, but what do you think about that?

"I think there's no choice, and I didn't deserve the position of Rosemaine's fiancée. I think Prince Gigisvalt would make a little more sense."

Wilfried said in the face that there was no commitment whatsoever to dissolving the engagement. There are things I would think are different inside, but Gigisvalt thinks it's a truly aristocratic self-control.

"This is my soliloquy, but I think you should start creating amulets early. There are many amulets to protect Rosemaine, so it's hard to make them by the time you get engaged."

Speaking of which, Gigisvalt had also heard reports that students from Rufen and Inmeldink had received a counterattack on Rosemaine's amulet. If you think you're going to be the owner of Gluthris Height, you'd better make an amulet. Gigisvalt thanked Wilfried by recommending tea.

In the end, Rosemaine did not come back for the territorial rivalry or graduation ceremony. Neither appeared, and with Ortoveen called for the best of his grades, the other territories just began to make noise. But Aerenfest is lying down, a strain of It's incredible for so long, or indeed it was to much higher heights that the noisy Fraurelm was picked out of the territorial rivalry and decided to be sent back to Arlensbach. It is a decision made by the unanimity of all the teachers in the House of Lords.

The day after the graduation ceremony, I thought to myself, Gigisvalt went to the library. I was wondering if Rosemayne cared if the magic equipment in the library was okay. If no one was instilling magic during the winter, the only demonic stones that were filled with magic at the service ceremony would run out of magic between spring and autumn.

"Thank you for your concern, Prince Gigisvalt."

I stroked my chest when I heard reports in the office from Solange that Hildebrandt and Hannelore had worked hard as librarians during the period of the House of Lords and that Wilfried and Charlotte had visited to bring me demonic stones packed with magic.

Gigisvalt left the office and tried to return to his own detachment, as there seemed to be no problem even as it was. Stop the foot in front of the browsing room door. Speaking of which, I remembered Rosemaine hadn't made it to the scene where she disappeared.

We didn't have to go upstairs to the browsing room the day Rosemaine disappeared so we didn't make a fuss. If more students use the library, they won't be able to go to the royal Gigisvalt.

But now, the day after graduation, no one should be here. Gigisvalt enters the browsing room and goes up the stairs on his left.

... Aerenfest cloak?

There was a visitor in the browsing room who didn't think anyone was there. I can see the three of them weaving their Aerenfest cloaks in the back of the upstairs browsing room. Maybe there's some magic equipment around there that Rosemaine was supplying with magic.

"Prince Gigisvalt?

It was Ferdinand who looked back. This is the person Rosemayne was showing her disregard for custom. You're here, so you must know Rosemaine's not lying down, she's missing.

"Rosemaine is worried. It's too long."

"Really...... By the way, why is Prince Gigisvalt here?

"I think it's the same as you. Rosemayne came to see the magic equipment that provided the last of her powers. I can't get to my feet while I have a lot of students."

But Gigisvalt thought it was just fine to have Ferdinand. I heard about the magic equipment upstairs, but I didn't hear about Gigisvalt.

When Gigisvalt asked Ferdinand, "Do you know the magic equipment upstairs," Ferdinand told me where the magic equipment was one after the other. There were more than ten numbers, large and small, and Gigisvalt did not know which sorcery was the last thing Rosemaine supplied with magic.

Gigisvalt gives thanks to Ferdinand and returns his heel. After a short walk I heard Ferdinand's tired voice.

"Rosemaine really messes up this appointment..."

Ferdinand's voice was not so loud, but it reached Gigisvalt's ear quite clearly, either because there was no sign of a person at all. Looking back, Ferdinand was staring at Mestionora holding a big book.

Then all the students return to their respective territories and the dorm is closed with the knight of the liaison. Only Aerenfest had an application for Rosemaine to come back whenever she wanted, for her side service, Lieselator and Gretia, and then for two escort knights to stay with the exclusive cook.

And I gave you permission, and it was a few days later. Ordnants flew in just after Gigisvalt finished dinner. It was from Traokvar.

"Gigisvalt, the Ordnants came from Hildebrandt. They've heard from Aerenfest. Seems like you want it to open in the deepest part of the world. Hildebrandt says he's on his way, but ask him to accompany him"

Remembering that Magdalena was having trouble nostalgizing for Rosemayne a lot because of the same librarian, Gigisvalt stood up. Skip the acknowledgement reply to Traokvar at Ordnants and tell Hildebrandt to rendezvous in front of the auditorium. I told Aerenfest to go in front of the auditorium because Gigisvalt would be present.

"My name is Mr. Rosemayne's lead side service riser. I am so sorry to hear that this is going to annoy the hands of the royalty at such a time. But Master Rosemayne is back here..."

Two side-services and two escort knights with some chunks of cloth in their hands apologized to Gigisvalt and Hildebrandt. It's already dim outside. I'm brighter tonight because the moon is up, but it's not the kind of time to summon royalty. However, I apologize that the reseller seems sorry that I cannot normally apply to the royal family and leave Rosemaine in the deepest part of three or four days.

"Come back. Above all. Let's pick him up quickly."

"Brother Gigisvalt, can I open it now?

Hildebrandt, calm down a little.

I nod with such a voice to Hildebrandt that I can see the excitement. The auditorium is unlocked and walks straight through the dark auditorium. Touching the demonic stone of the door in the deepest part, unlocking it, diving through such intricate shades as the oil film tensioned, is in the deepest part.

"... Rosemaine?

Breathtaking by accident. I saw a rosemaine-like figure with glowing plates in the pale moonlight inserting through thin windows lined up at equal intervals. Its appearance in the pale light was terribly fantastic and I didn't think of it as a living person.

Some of the same shades of hair as the current night sky are rounded together and the familiar rainbow demon stone ornaments are shaking. The golden eyes I looked back at are the same, in the same temple chief costume as they were when they disappeared. Certainly the part, the part, is the same, but not the same when I look at the whole thing. Rosemaine, who only seemed to be about the age of admission to the House of Lords, was in her year-to-year form.

The childish rounded face has changed its contour slightly, and the adorable face has turned into a lingering beauty. There was no child's roundness and suppleness at the fingertips that stretched well. Its body had a feminine softness, but an atmosphere of incompleteness, with a peculiar aesthetic that only a girl with an adult in front had.

... Gods bless.

I really couldn't think of any other words. He was originally a well-groomed kid, but I'm not expecting him to grow up and be so beautiful.

As we breathe in what Rosemaine looked like we had no idea, the proximity of Rosemaine behind us rushes to Rosemaine early enough.

"Dear Rosemaine!

"You brought it to me, Lieselator. Thank you. I know."

"You're safe and above all. We were really worried."

And the leaselator completely covered and hid Rosemaine's appearance with a hooded cape. Gigisvalt quickly hides his mind that he wanted to see more of it.

"Rosemaine, what does that look like...?

I hear he was as shocked as I was. Hildebrandt asked in a slightly rubbed voice. If Rosemaine, who was as tall as herself, had grown more than one minute of her head at a time, she would also be shocked.

"In the garden of beginnings, Lord Airvermeen asked Arnvax, the god of nurturing, to grow me."

"The garden of beginnings......?

Before Hildebrandt opened his mouth to ask further questions, Rosemaine turned off the glowing board and stood before me. My head, which was around my chest, is near my chin. Though it's slightly lower if you think it's an adult woman, it's also likely to grow a bit more if you think it's appropriate for the year.

"Prince Gigisvalt"

Neither is the voice that calls for it, nor the high one with a remembered childhood, but the soft one of a woman. The golden eyes that stare straight at me are the same. But it seemed to Gigisvalt as if the distance had approached badly because of Rosemaine's extended back.

"What is it?

"It's very unpleasant, but can I tell you more about it at the Lords' Conference? I must return to Aerenfest as soon as possible and talk to Aub. Please forgive me if I return by the Lords' Meeting."

That's what Rosemaine says without even trying to hide the rush. Gigisvalt could not help but realise that he was not visible in Rosemaine's golden eyes.
