Afterword
Hello again. It’s me, Miya Kazuki. Thank you very much for reading Ascendance of a Bookworm: Part 3 Volume 2.
In this volume, four new orphans joined Hasse’s monastery. Their lives were very different from those in Ehrenfest, and the situation between them and Hasse proved to be very problematic.
Rozemyne gained a lot of authority through Sylvester adopting her. But by using that authority without understanding the impact it would have on her surroundings, she ended up coming across as a greedy property-stealing tyrant despite just trying to save orphans from being abused.
Ferdinand gave her a task to teach her how to plot the downfall of others, leading her to tearfully request the help of the Gilberta Company. As expected, it was Lutz who saved her as she broke out into tears.
Meanwhile, Rozemyne hatched a plan to teach Wilfried a lesson after he repeatedly called their situation unfair, despite how miserable of a time she was having with Ferdinand’s task. She spent a day of absolute bliss in the castle’s library after they switched places, whereas Wilfried had a very bad time in the temple.
This volume also marked the beginning of Part 3’s overarching goal: the gathering of materials that form the ingredients for a jureve potion. In this book, they went to gather a purple ruelle on the Night of Schutzaria, a wondrous event that happens only once a year. I hope that this volume captured the feel of a fantasy adventure.
This volume’s cover art features Sylvester and Wilfried, father and son. Sylvester’s personality isn’t especially cool, but since it’s the cover art, I asked for him to be making a pose befitting an archduke. Isn’t it wonderful? Thank you, Shiina You-sama.
And finally, I offer up my highest thanks to everyone who read this book. May we meet again in Part 3 Volume 3.
October 2016, Miya Kazuki
