Episode 12

Baptism and Divine Paradises is the twelfth episode of the Ascendance of a Bookworm anime series.

Summary
Myne decides to end her apprenticeship with Benno as well as sell the paper-making rights to him. After speaking with his mother, Lutz continues his apprenticeship as a merchant.

Meeting with Freida, she is surprised at Myne's decision to remain with her family rather than live with the nobles since it will result in her dying. Myne is gathering money to leave for her family so sells her recipes involving cooking with sugar to Freida.

On the day of Myne's baptism, she joins Lutz in the parade before heading to the temple. Removed with the excuse that she is ill, Myne wakes up and explores the new location she is in. Locating the temple library, she finds that access is only granted to members of the clergy.

The High Bishop states that those who would like to work at the temple may do so with a sizeable donation.
