Ingo

Ingo (インゴ Ingo) is a character that appears in the Ascendance of a Bookworm series. He is a carpenter foreman in the City of Ehrenfest. Myne regards him as one of the "Gutenbergs" for helping make the printing press.undefined

Appearance
Ingo has bright blue eyes and ocher-coloured hair. When Myne met him, he wore a towel covering his hair and had a scraggly beard.

History
Ingo acquired his beruf certification and went to open his own workshop. Normally, the foreman of a carpentry workshop would be around fourty or fifty, thus giving him the disadvantage of young age in the Carpentry Guild. Therefore, he was desperate for any job he could get, especially Myne's job, thinking, that Myne was some rich kid.

Story
Ingo was introduced to Myne through another carpenter foreman that Benno works with. Her initial orders were for boards that would be used to make reversi and playing cards.undefined Myne tasks him with building the frame for the printing press.

The requests for Hasse's monastery's furniture went through the Carpentry Guild due to time issues, instead of directly to Ingo. That left him and his workshop in a problematic state.

When it came to further developing the printing press, he insisted on meeting Rozemyne in person, as Lutz's explanations left him bewildered and furious. If there was someone who knows how to improve, he should meet that certain someone in person. By reason of his dire state, he took the risk and demanded for the meeting to be organised. They met in Rozemyne's hidden room with Benno and Lutz additionally present. He was happy to hear, that he would stay Rozemyne's exclusive carpenter and that she was sorry for the trouble she caused him because of her lacking knowledge. During his conversation with Rozemyne, they came to the outcome, that they'd need metal to improve the printing press, leading to Johann's and Zack's summon. After they reached a consent about organisational matters, they began discussing the printing press's developement with the before-mentioned people in Rozemyne's hidden room. Zack was in charge of creating some blueprints from the collected ideas, as Ingo deemed him for more suitable for that job. He had trouble following Rozemyne's outburst of ideas, and was impressed by Zack's and Johann's ability to follow up with her. They got together again, after Zack finished his blueprints, and began discussing which to choose. Ingo took the role of a teacher, as the others chose their favorites depending on personal reasons.
