Ascendance of a Bookworm

"Was the royalty so stupid and shameless..."

Ferdinand rose loosely shaking her body, distorting her lips to the shape of a scary smile. "Ladies and gentlemen of the royal family, run now!" Ferdinand's eyes turned to me, wanting to scream.

"You too, Rosemaine."

"Ya, I'm so sorry!

I apologize with all my might to the intimidating Ferdinand gaze that makes me feel like I have to apologize for now, although I'm not sure why I'm angry. Of course, such an apology with no contents has been completely discerned, and it will stir up even more anger.

"Rosemaine, apparently I have to thank you."

"Ah, ah..."

In addition to the harsh eyes that are shaken by strong emotions, how many people in the world can receive that they are appreciated as they say in an awesome low voice with a hint of air?

... I don't think gratitude is about making a face like that!

"Your words and actions have made me aware of many things."

Thirty-six more escapes here. While silently staring down, I searched desperately for a way out. Fortunately, it's an emergency now. If you are recovering enough to stand up, you must report the current situation to the side waiting outside.

"Um! Arlensbach is in a tough situation right now, too, and Lanzenave is rampaged, right? Some ladies seem to have been taken, so I..."

"Hmm. Is it a prerequisite to destroy Arlensbach for a moment and make it more sophisticated? If Lanzenave is rampant, it's just fine."

You are supposed to be angry with the royal family and me, but the word that came out of Ferdinand's mouth is "destroy Ahrensbach". Though it does seem like a demon king, I don't know the connection.

"Please wait, Master Ferdinand. How is it that we are going to destroy Arlensbach? Lanzenave..."

"With Arlensbach, it's hard for me to move. If we crush both together, we'll have no problem."

"Isn't that problematic!? No!"

And I opened my hands, and stood before Ferdinand, and looked up. Ferdinand's intimidation grew as soon as he got there, and he wanted to cry about his actions as to what he was doing when he was supposed to want to escape the Demon King.

"Why are you sheltering Arlensbach or Lanzenave?

"It's not that way. If you attack Arlensbach now, Master Ferdinand may die against the covenant magic of not being hostile to me. So, absolutely not."

Ferdinand's expression didn't change much, but his anger faded slightly from his eyes back into his usual light golden eyes, and instead, the color of vigilance grew stronger.

"... what the hell did you do?

"I dyed the foundation to get in here quickly. Now, in magical terms, I am Aub Ahrensbach."

"Quickly...?

"It was the fastest I could come up with."

Ferdinand stopped with his eyes open. I think it's been a long time since I've seen Ferdinand handle it. I mean, I've done so much insanity.

"What the hell are you doing, you? Isn't the quickest way to capture Aub, use threats or torture to take away the Demon Stone for registration and get him to contract? Where are those idiots dyeing the foundations to help me?

"I'm here."

I crouched on the spot like Ferdinand had lost his power. He sighed so deeply that he thought he could not breathe any more, and looked up at me as Ferdinand crouched.

"You really are a big fool."

"Because I could never come up with such a scary means of people dying, and even if I could, I couldn't do it. Besides, I don't know Dietrinde's sister's face or name, and if she's not here, time is running out."

I don't think it's so efficient to go around looking for Dietrinde's sister in Arlensbach than dye the foundation.

"That's why I'll take care of the aftermath of Arlensbach, and Master Ferdinand will be fine with returning to Aerenfest. I'll take responsibility for what I did."

Ferdinand stood up to my claim, clutching my cheeks all the way. Unlike earlier, my grip is returning a little and I have the corresponding pain.

"Come on, Fu."

"You don't seem to understand yet, but you're wrong about what you're supposed to say"

Ferdinand's smile is getting a little scary. I gently slap Ferdinand's hand on my cheek with tears in my eyes.

"Tell me what to say. I'll do exactly that."

"Ask me for help. Dietrinde's treason to Zent on top of the outbreak attraction, his sister joins it, his mother invades Aerenfest, and Retizia attempts murder. I'm going to be the one who knows the most about Arlensbach when you finish what you did to Arlensbach."

I was distant for a moment from the current state of Arlensbach, which came out of Ferdinand's mouth. I'm in terrible shape. Nobles and civilians involved without knowing the circumstances will not have accumulated.

"As far as I'm concerned, I'd be very comfortable if Master Ferdinand could help me. But Master Ferdinand wants to go home to Aerenfest, doesn't he? I don't think I have any good memories. I was wondering if I could tie you to Arlensbach any more..."

Though I was worried about Ferdinand, this time he pulled his ears around.

"Will that happen when you say so, as I taught you? You don't remember the words you said yourself? Or did you not hear the words I taught you?

"Please help me! Please! Only Master Ferdinand can count on you!

"Fine. I'm so scared of letting you go."

... I'm not more scared than letting the Demon King go wild! I won't tell you to destroy Arlensbach all of a sudden!

When I held my ear down, I looked back as at least a rebellion. Scary.

"So what are you going to do? You can't be a Zent if you're an Aub. Because you can't dye two foundations at the same time. Would you know that?

I can't dye the foundation at the same time. So Zent was chosen by the temple chief who was not yet Aub in the past, and when Aub became Zent, he had let the next generation inherit the foundations of the territory before becoming Zent.

"So I'm going to ask others to dye the foundations of Arlensbach so that I can dye the foundations of Jürgenschmitt, or I can be the king's adopted daughter and get the Gluthrithheit in the basement library and give it up to the royal family"

If only a vessel named Jürgenschmitt is to survive, have someone dye the foundations of Ahrensbach and I dye the foundations of the country fastest. However, given the fences (smudges) between royalties and territories, it is visible that they will be very troublesome later.

"I think it has the least impact on the surroundings to get and give way to the Gluthris Height magic equipment behind the basement library. That's how the royal family inherited, isn't it?

It's hard to take in the book of Mestionora. There is also a retrieval. For this reason, Zent's manual-book glutlisheit was created that the clerkship could be done as long as this was available. Can fit in the back of the basement library so it's not something anyone can use.

Candidate Zent for the next term had increased his magic powers, circled the temple to complete the magic formation, and after obtaining the book of Mestionora, he had copied the contents of the Gluthrithheit in the back of his underground library in his scripture with regard to the missing parts.

When the times went down, I stopped going to Airvermeen. Focus your magic on the Library Statue of the Goddess and if you engrave the Gluthris Height magic formation on your head, you can get the shape of Gluthris Height. With the new knowledge gained with each passing era, there were candidates who realized that they might not have to go all the way to Airvermeen to get the knowledge they needed in the back of the basement library to get more repossessed.

In time, if you don't have to tour the temple, if it's all attributes, you'll realize that you can put magic into the statue of the goddess in the library to gain knowledge of the shape of Gluthrithheit in the underground library. Efforts to obtain the book of Mestionora gradually become distant. However, this is a story of a time when we did not have to tour the temple to gain the protection of the gods, as we do so much divinity.

At one point, Zent came out, who kept him out of the back library except for those who had registered as a clan to give up Zent's seat to their own blood clan. We thought it would be a good idea to limit the number of people who could be candidates because every time a Zent candidate from all over the place would have a terrible fight to replace him, there would be many dead people or the sanctuary would be rough.

She places white and black shmills in the library that resemble gold shmills that served to lead her under Airvermeen, and monitors candidate Zent's behavior to keep him out of the basement library except for those registered as a clan. Those who protested were solemnized one after the other by the authority of Zent. In order to prevent those coming raiding, Zent moved his residence from one sanctuary with Airvermeen to another, so that he could only come and go at the door where he had carved the sanctuary and the transfer formation.

Even if occasionally those who obtained the book of Mestionora appeared from the contents of the underground library, Zent's hands were lowered, leaving only the royal family able to obtain the gluthris height. Still, the quality of the Zent rarely diminished while the royalty of all attributes was in divinity, so there was no particular problem for some time.

However, if we are no longer able to obtain the Gluthrithheit, and if we poorly get our hands on it, it will be solemnized, then it will be reduced for the temple chiefs, who are aubs everywhere and the next aub, to step into the sanctuary and do the divine work. It was harder for the royalty alone to carry out large-scale divinity, and gradually the divinity became smaller.

When it became commonplace to inherit Zent in the royal family, something very rare happened with very few Zent candidates. We fought over Zent's throne among our brothers, and we fought each other. With only a weak child remaining, Zent decided to create a central temple near their place of residence so that they could carry out their divinity even if they were weak.

Fortunately, the weak Zent left me with a healthy child. But the next generation of Zent stood for decades, starting to do the divine work in the central temple, not in the sanctuary. Not knowing how to perform his divinity in the Holy Land, Zent continued to perform his divinity in the Central Temple as his weak parents had done.

There will no longer be divinity in the Holy Land, and only education will be given to children everywhere for the purpose of obtaining the Staarp, which will become known as the House of Lords to give birth to nobility.

Whether only those with royal registrations were eligible, or whether the royal residence moved from the sanctuary, it did not change that it was behind the underground library to obtain the Gluthrithheit. It was only after a queen drowned one child that it changed.

The queen drowned only one out of several children. I wanted to put the cutest kid in Zent's seat, even if he was a little poorly done or lacked one attribute. A child who does not have enough attributes and cannot make an effort to increase attributes by prayer cannot be a Zent no matter how much the Queen is drowning. The surrounding humans bracketed the height.

The queen was a bearer of personality who wondered if she was a person in terms of strange ways to pour out her feelings as a mother and her love for her children, but she was very good in terms of making magic equipment. He created the Gluthris Height magic equipment just to make him a Zent. Give me a gluthris height that I can use even if I don't have one attribute missing.

And the drowned child became Zent. I also had to acknowledge my surroundings because I got the Gluthris Height.

"When the owner dies, this Gluthris Height returns to the back of the underground library. Because Gluthrithheit should be at Gluthrithheit's."

Carved his mother's words into his chest, the drowned Zent made his drowning son inherit the magic equipment of Gluthrithheit by passing through the magic of Starp before he died. My son was of all attributes, so it didn't have to be anything magical. The drowned child just wanted to leave my child what his mother gave me. So I didn't tell her mother's words.

My son thought that Gluthrithheit's magic equipment would inherit from parents to children through magic in Starp. For this reason, while not going to the library in the back, he also makes his own child take over the Gluthrithheit of sorcery. Because that's how I became a Zent.

But because there is a real thing as a magic tool, it won't be surprising that there will be people out there who think they can be the next Zent if they take it away. The second prince, who inherited Gluthrithheit's magic equipment from his father in the hospital bed, was killed. And at the same time as the death of the owner, the magic equipment of Gluthrithheit disappeared. Behind the underground library, I went back to the library where I couldn't get in without the royal registration.

"If you refer to the history of throne succession, you think you can take it over by Starp with the magic equipment of Gluthrithheit behind the basement library. It'll take me a while to combine my magic powers because I'm not related to the royal family, but it'll have less effect on my surroundings if the royal family becomes Zent, won't it?

It will soon be possible to give up the Gluthris Heights if I become husband and wife to the royal family who have acquired them and combine my magic powers. It should feel like Dunkelferger is inheriting the wand of the Goddess of the Sea through magic at Starp.

"... did you decide to marry Prince Gigisvalt with that in mind? Where the inheritance by Starp was made, the contents would be unreadable to the present royalty? Does that make sense?

Ferdinand snorted like a fool. Ferdinand seems angry with the royal family for advising him on this but not studying the ancient language. I know how you feel. I have no idea when I'm going to be able to use Gluthris Heights where I gave them away.

"I guess I'm too busy to do that, even though it's great to be able to read and study books as an official business. Sometimes Zent smells like medicine like Ferdinand. I have also been so busy with taking over this past year that I have been too busy reading. I'm sure royalty is that everyday. I think it's pathetic that you can't read for years."

"What are you talking about like some other HR? If you become the king's adopted daughter and marry Prince Gigisvalt, would that be your routine?

I shut my mouth once, with reality poked into my chilling voice. I don't want to see reality.

"... when I grow up I go into the printing business and make time for me to touch the book at all. Don't you have any other good means? For example, every season, Master Ferdinand calls me in the mood to deliver Aerenfest's book, or he confines his souvenir to me to books by royal decree..."

As I stated what I could come up with, Ferdinand glanced down at me with a cheeky face in his arms.

"The problem is that you don't have time to read, and I don't think it makes sense to have more books, but you should never be royal using royal orders for such a stupid thing. We should look for ways to not have to be the king's adopted daughter, clean up Ahrensbach, and figure out how to get back to Aerenfest."

Ferdinand's words, said as a matter of course, stabbed him in the chest. Though I had thought of returning Ferdinand to Aerenfest, I had not thought of returning myself. I don't think you should go back to Aerenfest, which is moving on the assumption that I will be gone.

"What, that face? Are you still hiding something?

"It's not like that, the... Me, I can't go back to Aerenfest. Oh, it's not like I'm going home temporarily or going home, but it's hard for me to be in Aerenfest all the time."

"I don't know what that means"

Stuck in Ferdinand, I explain the current state of Aerenfest. That there is talk of adoption with the King and that Wilfried and his engagement are to be dissolved. That even if you no longer talk to royalty, you can't start over. That Charlotte started going for Aub because Vilfried said he didn't want to be Aub. That there is no place in the temple anymore, either, because Merhior has become the temple chief.

"I have been taking over and preparing for a year on the assumption that I will be gone. Everyone will not show up on their faces no matter what their insides are when they return, and I'm sure they will be happy to welcome you. But I can't be in Aerenfest any more than I can be in Aub Aerenfest. Gutenberg and the others are preparing to take over and leave..."

I came to Arlensbach with my side to save Ferdinand, because I had not been put in the head of the defence of the territory as one who was gone. Regardless, I am no longer in the headcount at Aerenfest from now on.

"... is that what's going on"

"So even Master Ferdinand alone is in Aerenfest..."

"Shut up."

I'm not supposed to have said anything wrong, but I got my cheek twisted again.

"Let's think about where you are. For one thing, let's just say we clean up from the problem in front of us. Lanzenave sweeps and closes the border gates. Let's go."

Ferdinand walks out in a move that he doesn't think was poisonous and inoperable.

"Wait. You can't leave Ferdinand unless you find or make a demon stone for registration."

"Would you have left the bookcase to open this door? It's in there. If you dyed the foundation, it should open. [M] Bring it right away."

"Yes!"
