Part 4 Volume 2

This is the second volume of the Ascendance of a Bookworm Part 4 light novel adaption written by Miya Kazuki and illustrated by You Shiina and overall the fourteenth volume of the Ascendance of a Bookworm light novel adaption.

In her determination to access the library as soon as possible, Rozemyne put her absolute all into her studies from the moment she arrived at the Royal Academy. Unfortunately for her, she behaved so unusually in the process that her retainers and professors have grown increasingly worried. Rozemyne finally clashes with the greater duchy Dunkelfelger over Schwartz and Weiss, and a game of treasure-stealing ditter is arranged between the two duchies’ apprentice knights. To make matters worse, she completely ignores proper diplomacy, accepting furtive consultations from the archduke candidates of other duchies and even giving the prince himself romantic advice! Her complete lack of foresight leaves the leaders of Ehrenfest in constant cranial agony. As anyone might expect, Rozemyne will do anything to protect the library. Here comes another chaotic volume of this biblio-fantasy, featuring two original short stories and four-panel manga drawn by You Shiina!

Characters are listed in order of appearance.

The volume starts with a prologue from Solange's POV where she single-handedly introduced many trends into the Royal Academy, such as Ehrensfest paper and new songs. She wonders if Rozemyne has the blessing of Mestionora the Goddess of Wisdom and Kunstzeal the Goddess of Art. She closes the library for the day at closing time and notifies the Mestionora statue of the day's events. She then waited for her attendant, Catherine, to bring her food from the central building's dining hall so she could eat alone as everyone else pesters her for information about Schwartz and Weiss when she eats with them. Schwartz and Weiss also ask her where is Rozemyne, or as they call her "Milady". Solange then finishes her log and completes her work wondering if a new librarian will be hired and eats will be hired alone.
