Ascendance of a Bookworm - Chapter 261

Unlike the sighing father and brother Eckhart, the chief urged him ahead while distorting his mouth.

“Let’s listen”

“First of all, we will limit the teaching to those who have learned the compression of magic at the Aristocracy. There is no intention to teach those who cannot compress it by themselves. Because it involves life and death.”

“Naturally”

The priest spoke slowly. Father and brother Eckhart also ask. Darmell alone stood out of place, but rather had a face wondering what would happen to him.

“And then I will be limited to the faction to which I belong”

“… You?”

“Yes. I have no intention of helping to increase the magical power of those who are hostile to me.”

Originally, though I was a commoner with only magical power, I was preferentially treated as an apprentice of a blue priestess and became an adopter of the lord. I want to keep a certain advantage over the amount of magic, and I don’t want to do anything to improve the magic of those who may be hostile.

“If you decide to target only those who belong to my faction, that is, those who belong to the Florentian faction, it will help cut down the Georgine faction? And then, Villefried I think the adoptive father who wants to make his brother the next lord knows that Villefried is anything but the Florentian. “



No matter how much the Georgine group tries to withdraw the Villefried brother, if the principal and the lord deny and express that they are firmly Florentian, there is no way around them, and the rumors are calm I think.

Now, because of the lack of Villefleet education, it is anxiety that you don’t know how to fall.

“But then, isn’t it up to you to choose the target? It’s just anxiety and inability to leave it to you.”

“The anxiety is the same for me”

â € ¢ I’m not familiar with the connection of nobility, and I hardly know who is who and where. I finally remembered a blacklist of relatives and former shrine lords who wrote good friends. The relatives and blacklist aristocrats are not monolithic, and their opinions can easily change depending on the profits they receive.

“So, we need six permission to become a target. First, the lords and wife who are the highest powers of Ehrenfest, and a wealth of information that is fair and private. The priest, the knight of the knight who is the key to the power, the mother who is the actual leader of the Florentian faction, and finally the knowledge provider I need permission from everyone. ”

The members I listed are basically my parents. If everyone can give permission, I think the possibility of going to my enemies will be significantly less. It is my self-protection.

The priest raised his lips so that it was interesting.

“Wow? Isn’t it wrong for the lord and his wife alone?”

“The adoptive father gives priority to his parent’s feelings and is likely to give knowledge no matter what faction the Villefried brother is pulled by, and Florentzia’s heart will be appealed to his parents’ feelings. I think it ’s going to shake. ”

dad, who heard my word, put his eyebrows on his face, became a very troubled face, and opened his mouth in a difficult way.

“Rose Mine, who … can’t you trust the lords?”

“No. I trust. However, I think that the parent’s affection is what gives priority to the child no matter what. I … dad and mother

The priest seemed to understand the feelings of my parents. A bitter and complex expression that nostalgic was revealed in the face of the chief who had faced my parents.

“Do you think about your parent’s feelings based on that? … not in aristocracy”

Even if I say so, my parents’ imprint is the parent who will stand up against the aristocrats to protect the parents and children of the Reino era who gave me a generous book It is.

“It’s each person who thinks about their parent’s feelings …. Then, after carefully selecting the target, I think it would be meaningless if the compression method is transmitted to Arlensbach and other territories So, I’m going to tie you up so that you can’t teach others with contract magic. Is there a contract magic that affects not only Ehrenfest but also other territories? “

“… Yes, it’s terribly expensive”

How much does it cost to say that the chief is horribly expensive? I don’t want to ask for a specific price. However, without the contract magic, it would be impossible to increase only the magic power of Ehrenfest.

“Which is more important, money or compression? I’m going to keep Ehrenfest secret, so if I can’t make money about contract magic at Ehrenfest, I’d better give up.”

“No problem, worth the budget for Ehrenfest”

The priest spoke slowly, with a difficult face like thinking about money.

“Principal, can you confine the contract magic so that parents and children can’t teach between brothers?”

“You can of course because it is a contract with an individual, but why?”

“It’s awkward to be able to spread it on its own, and above all, I’m trying to push the magical compression method against a young child who has enough magical power to worry about whether I can enter the temple, I want to prevent it, and if I can increase my magical power, I wouldn’t want to make a young child mess up if it might prevent me from entering the temple. ”

Aristocratic children have been wearing magical tools since birth to prevent them from accumulating magic power. A child with so little magical power that it is not suitable for the house’s case is adopted into a lower-ranked other house or put into a temple.

If you enter the temple because of the amount of magic, you will not be able to return to aristocratic society unless you have enough time. If a parent who knows it forces the child to compress the magic, the death of the child will increase dramatically.

“Isn’t the child before the baptism counted as a person?”

Whether to count or not is up to the government. I don’t think that it’s good because it doesn’t count even though it is there.

The priest must have been saying when. The compression of magical power is very dangerous, and teachers will teach you more than one in the aristocracy. Even if you deal with it without danger, accidents may occur.

I haven’t forgotten that children who have succeeded in compressing magic power in their own way are rare, and they said, “Why are you alive?”

“No matter how many pre-baptized children are said to not be counted as people, they still exist and live. I can’t give them away. I hate me.”

“If a child who might have become a noble as a result of your choice enters the temple?”

Gold sharp eyes shoot me. I looked back straight at my eyes.

“I choose the current situation where eleven people become blue priests, rather than the situation where ten people die and one becomes a noble.”

There is a difference between entering the temple and living as an aristocrat. Even if you know, you can’t yield.

The priestess reduces the strength of the line of sight that was looking at me.

“I still don’t understand what you want, because I don’t seem to have any advantage, but I understand the requirements. I’ll squeeze the subject according to the conditions. Don’t share knowledge between parents and siblings, what else are they? “

“We will charge you for teaching. It’s natural because it’s valuable knowledge, isn’t it?”

“… Mu. I thought that, but couldn’t that lower nobles be raised?”

The priest taps the temple with a ton and asks, “How much is the right price …” I found that Dermuel turned blue at the edge of the field of vision.

“If the goal is to raise the magic, lower class aristocrats should be priced so that they are cheaper and more expensive as they move up. Because it is inherently magical, senior aristocracy can do it for themselves, and only those who feel value for that knowledge need to get it. ”

My father turned pale this time. Fold your finger and hold your head. Is there a family discount?

“Let’s drink your condition … So how do you compress magical power?”

The priest said, as he lifted the edge of his lips. I smile and shake my head.

“It’s only after contract magic and fees are ready, Priest”

“It seems a little cautious”

“Everyone will notice if they are told that they are trying to make a bad guy”

The chief priest turns his gaze toward Darmuel while ringing his nose. I turned to Dermuel, who looked like a accused waiting for a verdict, knowing that he was silently asked, “What are you going to do with that?”

“Darmell doesn’t need money because I taught it without permission, but I’d like you to make it impossible to speak with contract magic like everyone else.”

“Of course”

Dermuel’s face spoke eloquently, saying that he was not told to pay.

“If you can speak so much with Ferdinand-sama, don’t worry”

The father, who finished the talk about the amplification of magic power, said that he was relieved, and drove back to Ehrenfest.

…… Which is it that the aristocracy society is slaughtering or the area around the priest is slaughtering that it looks like a friendly relationship? I do not want to think.

We have a day off to see off our father. The next day, I left for Irkner. Irkuner is relatively close from Dolvan.

“I will accompany Rosemine and Irkner, so I use this tax collector. Justus returns to Ehrenfest first. Is it okay?”

“It doesn’t matter”

The priest will probably ask Yustox to gather information about the disturbing atmosphere that his father has brought. In addition to gathering information on the Georgine faction, there must be a lot of work to do, including preparations for compressing magic power. Originally, Yustox is a close swearing loyalty to the chief priest, and if it is not used properly at such occasions, the treasure will be lost.

“Rose Mine, I’m busy today because I have a lot of things to do. It’s a problem even if you hang out in the winter hall and get into trouble. I’ll spend this day reading in the room.”

“I’m smart!”

I replied with a smile in full bloom, holding the spell of the paper handed over to the chief priest in the chest.

… I’ll do it! ‘Reading a day!

ukiuki and go back to the room and open the paper spell given to the priest.

It was a list of Georgines. The name of the lady who attended the Georgine tea party was written down, and there was a comment on the low-ranking nobles who were close to other factions and close to neutrality. If you turn the page further, you will see the bloodlines of the lady on the list.

On the last page, in addition to the sentence “I would be grateful if Ferdinand would be helpful,” there was a sentence “Thank you for Rosemine”.

“… Mother”

Suppose that he gave him a dad to let him know that the danger was imminent so that he could avoid a disturbing atmosphere. I felt the emotion of my parents there, and I felt that the back of my eyes became hot.

…… Must read and remember …

I go through the list carefully. There were many people on the blacklist who were friends with the former temple head, and more than half were people who knew their names. At the same time, I wanted to have a head for the complexity of the aristocratic relatives.

Well, when I was staring at the list while annoying my head, I heard the sound of Basabasa and Ordnance. Suddenly, the old donnans that entered the room descended to Brigitte’s arm.

“I’m arriving tomorrow evening? I understand. I decided to consult with them about the food menu. Could you tell Rosemine that the harvest festival will be held the day after tomorrow? I would like Rosemine to confirm the matter. ”

Gibe Irkner’s voice repeated the same word three times, returning to the yellow magic stone. Brigitte had a yellow magic stone in his hand and lowered his eyebrows as if he had trouble thinking that he would not get a reply during work hours.

“… I ’m sorry, Rosemine. I just told my brother about his schedule tomorrow.”

“That’s good, but how about Ilkner? Is education progressing?”

The next worry is Irkuner. The chief of the priest is going to talk and hurry to educate, but is it okay tomorrow?

“Looks like it’s been a little bit, Rosemine. I heard that the gray priests are doing their best.”

“Yes, I’m sorry … I’m sorry, Brigitte. I didn’t notice until the priest pointed me out”

When I apologized to Brigitte while breathing relief, Brigitte looked strange.

“Rosemine?”

“I loved the atmosphere of Ilkner’s close sense, so I thought Irkner had no particular problems if I could handle it. I didn’t think and I would n’t expect other nobles to go there. ”

From now on, even if an aristocrat who is interested in the paper and printing industries comes out, it will be done at the castle. Then I thought that if I showed the temple workshop at that time, it would be enough for inspection and tour.

However, from the viewpoint of aristocrats, it is easier to find profits by inspecting workshops run by other aristocrats than the orphanage workshops in the temple. Not only the chief in the temple, but Dermuel, Brigitte, and Gilvester came, so I didn’t think deeply, and when I was pointed out by the chief that there were no nobles who wanted to come to the temple, I felt bloody It was.

“We really had to understand, without needing to be pointed out by Rosemine. Don’t bother me”

After that, Brigitte opened his mouth after showing a slight crawl.

“Rose Mine, would you like to ask, are you sure you have some time?”

“I’m fine because I’m ordered to wait one day today, but it’s rare for Brigitte to talk.”

Brigitte told Darmuel that he was leaving the temporary escort mission and turned to me.

Perhaps it is a story about the “examples” that Ordnance said earlier. What is it, I stretch my back and look at Brigitte.

Brigitte turned his eyes down after sneaking into the eyes of the amethyst, asking whether he could ask or not.

“… Rosemine, Mr. Gray, I heard at Hasse that marriage is not allowed, is that true?”

“Yes, it’s true. Gray priests are not allowed to marry.”

“Is that so?”

After all, a strong feeling came out and Brigitte was clearly disappointed. The gray priest is not allowed to marry and I don’t know why Brigitte has so far fallen.

One thing flashed into my brain, which was in trouble.

…… Maybe the god priest is depressed because he can’t get married. Ambush is in a place that is too surprising!

“Brigitte, are you sure, are you a gray priest?”

When I asked Brigitte unintentionally, Darmuel and Brigitte voiced together and opened their eyes. Damuel sees Brigitte with an astonishing expression, and Brigitte notices Darmuel’s line of sight and shakes his head.

“It’s not me! No! What are you talking about, Rosemine?”

¡Dr. Brimette, who deny with all his power, I and Darmuel were all together and breathed a relief.

“The gray priest seemed depressed because she couldn’t get married, so I thought it would be.”

“It’s not I, Irkner people”

Brigitte rubs me lightly and says, “I’m too different from my priest and gray priest,” then unfortunately exhales, “Can’t I get married again?”

I recalled the treatment of the gray priest, with relief and a little anxiety that the relationship between Irkner’s people and nobility was still close.

“… It’s not without a loophole. Gibe Irkner can buy a gray priest. Once purchased, that person is no longer a gray priest and is in the jurisdiction of Gibe Irkner. The marriage after that will of course be done with the permission of Gibe Irkner. “

I don’t think I’m still feeling good about buying or selling people, but it’s normal for a gray priest to be bought by a nobleman. Gray priests and gray priests are bought by nobility as subordinates and as clerical workers.

If I can get a happy marriage where the gray priests were bought, I will be happy to send them out and give me the salary and wedding gift that I have worked so far.

“Can I inform my brother? If he stays in the winter, it is better to let him participate in the wedding.”

“… I ask the chief priest. I must not do anything selfish.”

When I asked the various priests who were preparing for the visit through Fran, I was angry that I should have told you to read a day in the room. Since it can’t be helped, he tells Fran, “I want to answer you before I arrive at Irkner.

Talking about the marriage of the gray priest, the priest was allowed to meet from the day with a bitter bitter face. The chief priest, like me, said that if Gibe Irkner bought a gray priest, he would have to do it.

“If Gibe Irkner is going to buy it, here’s a document … No, you can make it after this. Only the registration card is ready.”

When I finished the conversation quickly, I was urged to leave the room as if I was about to leave.

I returned to my room and started making papers on the purchase of the gray priest, taught by Franc. The first job of buying and selling gray priests is mixed with the feeling of melancholy and the feeling of having to celebrate if marriage is determined and you are happy.

“Fran, what should I do for the celebration?”

“I don’t know. As far as I know, no one is married as a gray priest.”

After Franco said casually, “I ’m sorry”, I ’m blind. I found a complicated emotion there and I tilted my head.

“… Do you want to marry Franc?”

“No. I’m happy with my current life … and I don’t know what marriage is. I’m very troubled if I have to get married. I think. ”

I suddenly worried about Fran’s words that I only know in the temple. Is Irkunar’s gray priest okay?

The next day, we had various concerns and we arrived at Irkner.
