Episode 4

Forests and Clay Tablets is the title of the fourth episode of the Ascendance of a Bookworm anime series.

Myne's goal is to make clay tablets in the spring. Preparing dinner, Myne states she needs to head to the forest in order to make her books. She needs to build up her stamina and strength first.

One day she receives the offer to become Otto's assistant, where she can learn to read and write. When she can keep up with the other kids, Myne can also go to the forest.

After teaching the boys in the class herself, Myne is excited to learn a new word. Meeting up with Tuuri, who is with Ralph, Fey and Lutz, over time Myne builds up her stamina to where she can travel to the forest.

There, Myne thinks she can finally make her clay tablet, only to find the hard ground. Lutz is angered to find her digging since she promised to only walk to the forest. Electing to dig some himself, Lutz watches as Myne inscribes the clay with letters.

Fey arrives back with another boy and jumps on the clay tablets, not realizing that they were important. Upset, Myne begins to emanate a colored aura. The rain ruins another set of tablets, yet making further ones Myne and Lutz share their dreams for the future.
