Ascendance of a Bookworm

Turi is coming to the workshop today to teach everyone how to bind. I wanted to go and cheer up, but Rutz refused, saying, “If it’s just cheering, it’s an obstacle.” There is no help for it if it is said to be in the way of work.

“Fran, are you all right now for the library?”

“No problem”

Fran and Rosina are now writing out the types and amounts of ingredients used at the orphanage during the month of January, and calculating the amount needed for winter preparations. Soon, the harvest of the farm village will be brought into the city, and the season will begin when everyone prepares for the winter. Until then, you have to figure out how much you need.

“If you are too busy, you can go to the library with Rosina …”

“No, Rosina is going to use it for Vilma. And I will bring some documents to the library, so don’t worry.”

I head to the library with Franc, who put a large amount of luggage such as wooden bills and ink in a bag. The sun’s sunshine, which still feels a bit of a summer remnant, has entered the corridor filled with the cold air of autumn.

From the corridor, you can see the entrance leading to the aristocratic area, and you can see many carriages lined up there. There will be a blue priest going out, a lot of luggage.

“… It seems that there are a lot of carriages, but is there anything?”

“That is the carriage of the blue priests heading to the Harvest Festival, Maine. Most of the blue priests of the temple are heading to the Harvest Festival at this time.”

“Harvest festival? … A festival I have never heard of.”

Autumn is the season when the harvest of forests has increased, and things harvested in the rural areas have entered the market more and more, and everyone is preparing for winter together. I knew that pork processing would be a fuss with the neighbors, but I have never heard of festivals such as the Harvest Festival.

“Is it a temple-specific festival? … but isn’t there any ritual in the temple?”

In the education by Fran and the chief priest, I was taught about the rituals held in the temple, but there should have been no harvest festival.

“Oh, don’t you know the commoner?”

When I looked back to an unknown voice that was suddenly heard, a man who seemed to be a nobleman who was ready to travel looked down with an eye that made me foolish. It is different from the blue priest at the time of the star festival, but because he does not wear a blue garment, it cannot be immediately judged whether he is a blue priest or a nobleman who came to the temple because of the blue priest.

I move immediately to put my back against the wall, and crawl and cross my hands in front of my chest. This is an action that honors the lower person and the higher person.

Since those wearing blue robes are equal in the temple, I learned from the chief that they are not necessary except for the temple chief and the chief priest, but I am not a noble. It’s safer to hang out here than to behave equally and get tangled.

“Oh, it seems like I’m talking about my position. Isn’t there a lie in the words of the chief priest? If so, didn’t you bother to turn your hand?”

The man goes away, wondering if I was immediately satisfied, or a little worried. The trouble seems to have been avoided.

I realized that the man was a blue priest from the word that he was speaking. If you are an aristocrat who is not a priest, you should ask and consider it natural.

“Mine-sama, it’s equal on the spot, so it’s a whisper …”

“That’s Fran. Even though it’s like a lord, I’m not a nobleman.” I’m overwhelmingly over there. Isn’t it okay if it’s ugly and avoids the trouble? “[ 19459002]

Francs still crawls his eyebrows.

“But then, Mine will be scolded by the blue priest”

“Even though you are beaten, your position is overwhelmingly weak. You can touch the blue priest’s intuition and turn your eyes to an orphanage.”

If you are a blue priest who knows the magic runaway that you did for the temple head first, I don’t think I will be heading directly to myself. However, since my title is the orphanage director, the orphanage can be used to praise me.

“… If you have your own thoughts, that’s fine, but you need to be dignified.”

Fran begins to walk toward the library, with a face that is not very convinced. There must be no dignity for me. If Franc wants a dignified Lord, I will try, but dignity is not something that is easy to learn.

“Please, Mine”

That’s why Franc opens the library door. The moment I tried to step in as usual, I found my face frozen.

“… what is this !?”

The inside of the library was messy. The two bookshelves are completely empty, and the floor is scattered with parchment and wooden bills, and there are no steps. At any rate, it is not something that was accidentally dropped when taking the materials, but the contents of the bookshelf were intentionally destroyed.

“Ufufufufufufu ……”

I was angry from the bottom of my stomach. The book itself is few, and there are not so many materials with letters on it. A fool who does not know the preciousness of the materials gathered here must have a justice iron casket.

“Where are you? Who did this foolish thing …”

Mysterious powers in my body inspire me. Capture the criminal immediately and give it to the blood festival.

“Mine, Mine!”

¡Fran screamed and grabbed my shoulder from behind.

“First report to the chief priest, then ask for instructions. Finally, you may know who used the library.”

《Fran ’s words avoiding the magical power of trying to run away directly. The magical power can be controlled little by little. It is only the criminal who can use anger to hit the magic.

It’s hard to scare francs, cause damage to the surroundings, or hit a priest. I screamed and laughed, pushing the magical power.

“Yes, let’s go to the chief priest”

Since I did not make any appointments, I was told by Fran to wait in the waiting room while applying for the visit.

When you sit quietly, you can see the signs of people moving through the corridor. Probably the blue priests who were preparing the carriage.

The moment I thought so, the words of the blue priest revived suddenly in my mind. Didn’t he say, “I didn’t bother to turn my hand”?

…… That guy!

I stood up.

As long as I know the culprit, I can’t be relaxed here. The other party was preparing for the trip. I have to catch it before I can escape.

“Wow !?”

It was almost the same time when I put my hand on the doorknob to jump out of the waiting room and someone opened the door from outside. Suddenly the door came to me and I felt like I was being swung around the door.

“Mine-sama? What are you doing here …”

¡I grabbed the frantic hand of my face, and I woke up instantly. When he tried to run out of the waiting room, he was caught by a frantic franc.

“What did you do, Mine?”

“Fran, I found a criminal who messed up the library. Let’s chase it immediately. It may still be in time!”

“Tell me the priest. The priest waits.”

wondering if it would be a problem if he escaped, Fran lifted me up and started to head to the priest’s room without saying anything.

“That franc. You can walk on your own.”

“I’m going to rush to the entrance at the momentum, so I’m going to the Priest’s room as it is”

“… Yes”

While being held up by Franc, he was taken to the Priest’s room. The chief of lightly raises one eyebrow and compares me with Franc.

“Did something happen?”

“Mine who knew the culprit was forced to run to the doorway, so it was inevitable …”

“Are you sure? That was a break”

The priest worked the franc and instructed me to take down, and then showed the hidden room with his chin.

…… It may be more correct to say a preaching room than a hidden room.

Referring to the future time, I felt a little depressed, but I entered the hidden room behind the priest.

When I dismiss the materials aside and sit on the chaise lounge as usual, the priest pulls out the chair and sits down. The priest looked at me while holding the temple lightly.

“Did you hear that the library was devastated by Franc?”

“Yes. Two bookshelves were empty. All the material was scattered on the floor and I couldn’t step in. This is a death penalty crime !?

I appealed with all my strength, but the priest shook my hand lightly and rejected it.

“The idiot, there is no death penalty … so you seemed to have found the culprit?”

“Yes. The blue priest who prepared for the trip on his way to the library said he never bothered. He was definitely.”

“Even though he was told, there are five blue priests who have traveled to the Harvest Festival today. Who are they?”

I thought there were a lot of carriages, but I didn’t think there were five blue priests who left today.

“I don’t know. But you can tell by looking at the face.”

“It will be ten days from now to return from the Harvest Festival. Can you remember until then?”

I was greatly angry at the suspicious priest’s words.

“I can’t forget the person who tricked the book”

“Thank you for forgetting me …”

Even if the priest is mixed with sighs, there is no way to leave the fool who did such a job.

I decided to change the topic quickly.

“By the way, what is the Harvest Festival? I don’t think it was explained in the temple rituals …”

“I decided to postpone it because it wasn’t an event you participated in. The Harvest Festival is a rural festival in the territory. Originally …”

If you explain the long explanation of the chief priest who also involved mythology, it seems that the tax collector and the blue priest are scratching the harvest in the village.

“It’s an unfortunate festival for villagers to bring harvests as a gift to God and God”

“Don’t speak without a body or lid. Of course, not only that, but also a rural wedding ceremony is held at the same time”

¡The priest scolded me with a cough and a cough. Apparently I had to wrap it in an oblate.

“Is the rural wedding autumn?”

“Accurately after the harvest is over”

I see. Farmers have no free time after the snow melts until the harvest is finished. Since winter is trapped in snow, there will be some free time, but the priests will not be able to reach the village.

I thought it was an unpleasant festival when I thought it was with tax collection, but it seems to have come true.

“Without a wedding, without approval and registration as a couple, you will not be recognized as a couple in a winter house and will not be given a new house or field from the next spring”

“What is a winter house?”

“It is a house for farmers to spend the winter. There is a big difference between living in the town and in the rural areas. Each house is at the center of the field so that it is easy to cultivate the field in summer, but it is not possible to cultivate the field in winter. I’m going to spend a big house in the center of the village, I don’t know much about it. “

The village seems to have a completely different life from the town. If you don’t know the priest, you won’t have to study daringly.

“… Isn’t the Harvest Festival an event that I participate in?”

“Ah. In a meeting to decide who to send to which rural village, the shrine priest shouted loudly, saying that Mine would not come out because the share would decrease.”

¡I lost my bitter laughter to the assertion that seems to be the head of the temple that made me the enemy of my eyes. In my daily life, my impression of the temple chief has faded considerably, but it seems that it remains unchanged for the temple chief.

For the blue priests, this is a valuable opportunity to increase their income, so everyone seems to agree with the opinion of the temple chief.

“Rural villages are far away, so long trips can put a burden on your body. Aside from the spring prayers that require magic, you won’t have to go to the Harvest Festival.”

I remembered the word of the chief and I tilted my head.

“… That means you go to rural areas in the spring?”

“Yes. Even if you consider the amount of magic, you and I will be elected.”

I knew that a prayer ceremony for a good harvest would take place in the spring, but I haven’t heard it take place in a rural area. I think it’s impossible to think about traveling.

“Travel is definitely impossible for me!”

“But this is an important task. I put you in the temple because you need magical power in these rituals. Did you forget it?”

Because of the great lack of magical power, I was given an apprenticeship to the temple as a blue priestess with the promise of handing over magical power and money. I wouldn’t be able to abandon my duty by reading books in the library and making books in the Mine workshop.

“… I have not forgotten”

“Thank you, but you too will be hard, but consider my efforts to accompany you as your guardian and manager”

…… Is the priest, perhaps unlucky? Or is it difficult?

Talked about words that were about to jump out of the mouth, and closed their mouths. If you talk about bad things, it will only become a snake.

“Well, I’m worried about leaving it to other blue priests, so it’s still better to move by myself.”

“I’m sorry to trouble you”

I crossed my hands in front of my chest and lightly lowered my head.

“… What are you going to do with that?”

“What is it?”

“The story of the library”

I smiled with the words of the chief priest and showed me a fist.

“Of course,” Bloody Carnival “will be held”

“What is it?”

“The criminal is raised to the blood festival. It ’s essential to show off and raise the morale of the allies, as long as a clear declaration of war has been struck to destroy the library.”

The blue priest, who doesn’t know his name, made a declaration of war. The main dignity was also demanded by Franc, and I think it is a good opportunity.

“Wait! The criminal who messes up the library to keep you out of the Harvest Festival, and you who say the Blood Festival isn’t too damaged!” 19459002]

I think that the extremes are very balanced, but they don’t seem to agree with the priest.

“… Because I can’t go to the Harvest Festival. You just blew up the material just for that reason?”

“Oh, probably because the materials there were in order of availability. I must be harassed that you wouldn’t even get rid of them. I don’t know all the materials in the library.” Karana “

The moment I heard the word “I can’t even get rid of” by the chief priest, something suddenly turned on in my head.

This is a challenge from the blue priest and a declaration of war. It’s unacceptable to think that I can’t clean up the library.

“… I will take it and stand”

“What do you mean?”

“Library materials, I’ll clear up”

This is a great opportunity for me. This is my best opportunity to make a library for me.

“But I don’t know how to enter the materials, so I’m going to get rid of it in my own way, but please close your eyes.”

How to enter, shit. Since it is a lot of trouble, I will introduce a taxonomy to the library here. I organize bibliographic items, make catalogs, and I manage all books. I make it an easy-to-use library.

If it’s so messy, no one else will want to organize it, and that’s all I want to do. If this happens, thank the criminal.

“If you harass me, wouldn’t anyone get rid of it? I’m the one who uses the library the most.”

“It’s a bit creepy that you’re feeling better, but I don’t think you’ll handle the book poorly. I’ll leave it to you.”

The priest lightly sighed and stood up. The story seems to end.

I was also relieved after getting up in the same way. I don’t get to the bookshelves to clear the books, but neither Gil nor Delia reach the bookshelves, even if I get help from the side. One franc will be serious.

“Are you sure you want to help the orphanage gray priest?”

“That’s right. It will be difficult for you to serve alone. Allow”

“I’m sorry”

When I went back to the chief’s room, I met Fran with a worried face. It seems that I was worried about my runaway because of the library.

“… Principal, do you have a library catalog or something? It would be helpful if there was something that you could refer to,”

It would be nice to have a catalog of books to think about taxonomy.

“I have books and materials that I brought in, but I don’t know anything else. Even if I have one, I will be the temple chief.”

“Are you sure you want to borrow it?”

“I don’t care”

Arnaud, who heard the consent of the Priest, quickly took out the wooden bill and gave it to him. As always, Arnaud is a competent side service.

“I ’m sorry. I ’m sorry.”

Upon entering the hallway, Fran leaned over his head in an inexplicable way, calling on him with a fear.

“… Mine-sama, what does it look like?”

“Ufufu, I’m in a good mood. I want to thank the criminal and pray and thank God.”

“Are you sure you want to ask me why?”

“What makes me tidy up the library. I don’t think it’s fun. Don’t you think so?”

The book linked to the chain has already been read, and I was about to start working on a book full of books. If you can clean it up to your liking, you can call it two birds with one stone.

…… It’s getting more like a librarian! Yaruzo!
