Ascendance of a Bookworm

Late night tea party

To prepare the tea, Gretia headed to the greenhouse one foot away. I am told to go slowly, considering Hannelore's time to change. The greenhouse is in the direction of the room where the tea party takes place and seems to be very active in the snowy winter social world.

"It's time to go, Master Rosemaine. Do they use horsebacks?

I left the room with two Darmuel and Eudit as escorts. My hand stops trying to leave the horseman as usual.

"Dear Rosemaine, what is it?

Seen strangely by Eudit, I tell him that I am afraid of demonic stones because of the state of the battle and the thought of those who died in front of me. Eudit rounded his eyes and Dermuel turned into a bitter face.

"I was concerned that the Lieselator dropped the Ordnants demon stone, but if that's the situation, please let me know for your side service. It's pathetic to have a leaselator flirting without being informed of anything."

"Dermuel, isn't that something we won't tell Lady Rosemayne yet? After taking a night off and getting tired..."

"But it changes mindset and nothing to care for the Lord who is fighting and tired in a distant land and who is having a special malaise caused by the battle. If you want the Lord to know, don't you think we have to let the Lord know this one too?

Darmuel and Eudit are talking about something. Though it seemed to be something to report to me later, it would be better to hear it from Darmuel's reaction.

"Darmuel, tell me"

If you're scared of demon stones and can't get the beast out, you'll have to walk to the greenhouse. It's going to be a slow arrival without trying. As I walked towards the greenhouse, I decided to listen from Darmuel.

"Dear Rosemayne, even though Master Ferdinand urged me to do so, I invited Master Bonifatius to take a seat with a martial arts tradition, so are you aware that Master Rosemayne was the organizer in that seat?

...... there was no.

It was to quell my uncle's rampage, so the surroundings were helpful, but reporting to Aub should have been a priority. My uncle and my servants decided, as a measure of bitterness, to get through the reporting order by having my adoptive father, Aub, present.

"Master Bonifatius talked in a good mood, and Aub, who had a heavy mouth, also started talking about his battle. It seemed like things were going well for a while from around us. But Lady Rosemayne suddenly blocked Aub's story and said," If you don't schedule a temporary stitch,

I rushed away from my seat because I was driven by the fear of demonic stones, but I didn't know it around me. He said there was no signal to serve the side, no exit greeting to the attendees, stood up rattling the chair blocking Aub's story on the way, and he just seemed to start complaining about his side service about his tentative sewing plans.

... Ahhhh, it's not rude.

"I realized that there might be factors other than fatigue in Lord Ferdinand's words, but it was too late. At the very least, if I had been informed in advance that I felt unwell when I saw the Demon Stone, Lady Ferdinand would not have been able to help me hear the story of the battle from Lady Bonifatius, and the Lieselator would have been able to respond more differently. But Lady Rosemayne did not take into account the malaise caused by the battle because she invited Dunkelferger to set up this battle after going through the House of Lords many times."

Had I fainted, I could have carried it out as it were, but I went to my adoptive mother and Charlotte and the others on account of the temporary sewing of my costume, and I survived the feast with a makeover laugh, although I was quite forced to do so.

"This sudden middle seat seems to have turned out to be a very rude oddity for Aub and Bonifatius' neighbors due to Rosemayne's better handling."

After I sat in the middle, the leaselator who was turning to the followers of my uncle and his proximity left in the seat said, "I wonder if Rosemayne's side steps are so bad that she has to complain to Aub at such a feast that she is not costumed".

... I can't believe Rezelator was saying that...

"Aub and Calstead suppressed Bonifatius and the others because Master Ferdinand is so worried about his health that I'm sure Rosemayne has a good reason, but in the future, be careful and talk to him about anything strange in advance."

I was only thinking about escaping the fear of demon stones, and I wasn't conscious at all about how my adoptive father and uncle looked after I sat in the middle. I couldn't think of how hard it would be to serve the remaining sides. Lord disqualified.

"I must apologize to the Rezelator."

"Um, Master Rosemaine. Please praise him if you can. While I was making the greenhouse arrangements, it seemed that Lieselator could not do it in the library if he could not make temporary stitches in the castle, or he negotiated with Master Ferdinand and kept in touch with the Guilberta Chamber of Commerce."

He told me as Eudit said, "This was supposed to be reported in the morning..." It seems the leaselator was running for me to fulfill my hope.

"It was also pointed out that it was not a good idea for Lady Rosemayne to go to the hall where Lady Ferdinand was staying, so Lady Hannelore and Lady Heishitze were also invited to consider whether she could give her hair decorations as a thank you"

Given the current situation, which would result in a daughter-in-law to the royal family, the outside world will be in big trouble later if you don't mind.

"But Master Rosemaine. We're immature too, but Hartmoot is bad. I thought there might be something about Rosemayne, but she didn't let me know anything because there was no certainty. Master Ferdinand and I have decided something, and we are out of company."

When Eudit pointed his lips in dissatisfaction, he saw a greenhouse.

The greenhouse was a very fantastic space. Large windows line up to incorporate as much light as possible. The unexpectedly bright moonlight poured quietly and the white building itself seemed slightly glowing. Magic fixtures like lamps lit with little lights in them are adorned here and there. The colorful flowers were blooming in the light of it.

"Beautiful..."

"This way, Master Rosemaine."

Greater Tier, who was preparing earlier, led me to the table. It seems to be a greenhouse commonly used for women's gatherings in the winter social world, with a lot of space being taken up to place tables and chairs.

"Master Hannelore was also able to leave the room. The rooms are in the main building, so you'll be there soon."

Hannelore arrived as Gretia explained the prepared tea and had a meeting about the steps taken since Hannelore's arrival.

"Good day, Master Hannelore"

"Thank you for inviting me. I know, Master Rosemaine. I'm so glad I didn't sleep well. … this greenhouse is a very nice place"

Looking around a greenhouse illuminated by faint light, Hannelore narrows her eyes. He seemed a little grumpy. As I had met with Gretia, I decided to invite Hannelore to take a little stroll through the greenhouse. In the meantime, Greater will prepare Hannelore by asking her side what she prefers from the prepared tea.

Katsun, I took a deep breath and inhaled the smell of flowers as I watched the flowers in a slow foothold. The escort knights follow a short distance away.

"This greenhouse... Actually, this is the first time I've been in it, too. Although it seems to be commonly used in the winter social world, I spend the winter in the children's room and the House of Lords so I never go in or out. The colorful blooming flowers will be beautiful in the snow that runs everywhere out the window."

"Just imagine it will make you feel lukewarm. I'm afraid I can't see it."

"That's a lot of flowers you don't see in Dunkelferger," Hannelore said when she saw the flowers being grown for ornamental purposes. Dunkelferger seems to have a much different climate than Aerenfest.

"Did you enjoy the feast?

"Yes. I was surprised that you were the mother of Master Rosemayne, who wrote the love story of the House of Lords. We got a new book, and we had a lot to talk about, so we really enjoyed it."

Hannelore pleasantly tells me what she talked about with her mother. That smile makes me laugh unexpectedly, too.

"What I told you will now be a book. It's a love story modeled after Lady Rosemayne and Lady Ferdinand."

"I don't think that's necessary. If you don't ask your mother not to write..."

When I wave, Hannelore drops her shoulder a little and groans, "... Lady Elvira said that I would be happy just in the story".

"They say all the absurd emotions that precede an endless reality sublimate the story. You're a strong mother."

... Ah, it feels like I said it. When Master Ferdinand decided to go to Arlensbach.

We walked slowly through the greenhouse talking about it until we heard from Gretia and Hannelore's side servants that tea was in it.

"It's still cold at night, here you go. It'll warm you up."

Drink the tea Greater Tier brewed for me. There was a little honey in it to make it easier to drink with the herbal tea that was thought to allow me to sleep well. If you drink cockles, you can see a warm drink falling from your mouth to your stomach. My body seemed colder than I thought it would be.

"Dear Hannelore, this way..."

I gave Hannelore an anti-bugging magic device. I don't want too many people listening to me. I opened my mouth after confirming that Hannelore had grabbed the magic implements in my hand.

"I am so sorry for this time"

"Master Rosemaine?

When I apologized, Hannelore blinked inexplicably.

"I told Aub Dunkelferger I had two bells. And yet it's been three days. Besides, the original plan was to just rescue Master Ferdinand. It wasn't planned to involve Dunkelferger's aspirations in a sweep of Lanzenave or an intense battle like today's. On top of that, I apologize for bothering Master Hannelore so much I couldn't sleep."

"Um, but, Master Rosemaine. It was Master Ferdinand who incited the knights, and I'm the one who decided to stay because the knights are unhappy, even though I mean the real Ditter, right? Lady Rosemayne doesn't have to blame you."

That is what Hannelore tells me, looking at me as he grated.

"We won by working together in good faith. Even if we can thank Dunkelferger for his cooperation in public, we should not apologize. So at least I wanted to apologize in a private place."

Hannelore, along with the knights of Dunkelferger, even defended the foundations of Aerenfest. If you are having a sleepless night with it, I will have to apologize.

"Thanks to the presence of the knights of Dunkelferger, the Battle of Gerlach could be won. There didn't seem to be any deaths, but who was seriously ill? I can't believe I'm putting other people in such danger..."

"Dear Rosemaine, As I have said many times, it is the result of our choice, Dunkelferger. Please stop such regrets. No knight comes to Ditter without any readiness. Instead, I wanted to apologize to Lady Rosemayne and the Aerenfest."

Hannelore exhaled slowly when she said so with a crying face. I can't think of anything to be apologized for by Hannelore, blinking my eyes just like Hannelore did earlier.

"I, in the Battle of Gerlach, have pulled your legs a long time, haven't I? The intent to strike was to strengthen the target... As a result, there are many deceased Aerenfest knights. Me, I let you join me to snow Ditter's shame, and I couldn't help you. That's really distressing... I'm sorry for the dead knights..."

I did not know because I had infiltrated the Geebe Hall with Matthias, but it seems that there were many dead knights when Graozam, who converted the magic attacked by Hannelore and the others into his own attacking power, went wild. When I think about it, he can't sleep anymore. I know exactly how that feels.

"The knights of Dunkelferger were lucky. There was a massive healing of Master Rosemayne shortly after he joined the Knight of Aerenfest in a central breakthrough. There was an injured person, but he never removed the cloth from his mouth because he no longer needed to take recovery pills."

Priority should have been given to the recovery of the already worn out Knights of Geebe. The recovery of the knights of Dunkelferger was later, and the Geebe Knights stepped back to begin their recovery in order to restore magic that Lungshmer's healing alone could not help. That's why they said there were a number of instant death-induced deaths in the Knights of Geebe, who were taking recovery drugs.

"It's supposed to be the Knight of Aerenfest who should be protected by Lord Rosemayne, the Lord's Candidate of Aerenfest, isn't it? Yet all the knights of Dunkelferger are safe and only those of Aerenfest have been harmed. I'm so sorry..."

To the words of Hannelore, I shook my neck to the side. It's best that no one dies, but of course, that can't happen. I am glad, then, that there was less damage to the knights of Dunkelferger, who were not supposed to have had to fight.

"Without the knights of Dunkelferger, the battle against Lanzenave and the battle of Gerlach would have been painful to win. Dear Hannelore, do not blame yourself. Me and Aerenfest have been very helpful. I sincerely appreciate it."

As I watched Hannelore weep quietly as he put his fingers together on the table and prayed, I lay my own hands on Hannelore's hands.

"Dear Hannelore, let us mourn the dead together. Pray with me to those who ascend with the dawn to the far heights of the Supreme God."

And he looked up at me as Hannelore was astonished.

"Pray with me...? I grew up being told that the death of a knight need not grieve. It is the role of the family, not the role of the Lordship Candidates, to grieve for their deaths scattered in battle to protect the land, protect the Lord, protect their families and friends, and defend their beliefs. It is the role of the Lords' clan to praise and generously compensate for the bravery and splendour of the remaining survivors so that they can boast of the death of their knight, he said.... Yet may I offer you my prayers, which I do not know or know in my family?

"I don't know about it in Dunkelferger, but this is Aerenfest. I think it would be enough if we were willing to mourn the dead."

I asked the escort knights to head to the balcony on the second floor of the main building. When you put out a stamp in the cold air before dawn, which has been a little white, you teach Hannelore the congratulations of sending the dead.

"The Supreme God is a husband and wife of darkness and light, who presides over the high pavilion sky"

Starting with Hannelore, the proximities who were accompanying him began to put out their stapes and pray in the same way.

"Hear our prayers, give blessings to those who go far beyond the heights, and dedicate yourselves to the song of condolences, the best protection to the returning guests."

Light and darkness leap out of my starp and ascend towards the sky. From the Staarp of Hannelore, the light of blessings also flew from the Staarp of the proximity.

"Dear Rosemaine, has my prayer reached the land of Gerlach?

"I think it arrived."

"... I prayed for them and I feel blessed"

Hannelore smiles with a clear face with a clear heart. Karan, one bell rang on Karan and Aerenfest.
