A classic

I did not expect Wilfried to accept the loss of his position this easily, I am positively surprised by it. Especiall by how supporting he is of Charlotte

@neshura@bookwormstory.social I also made an Icon here, can you make me a mod in community?

@neshura@bookwormstory.social I have made an icon Can you add me as a mod here so I can add it?

When you get an opportunity, take it and profit as much as you possibly can.

Rozemyne: Please support Charlotte. I promised to be her ally.

Leisegang: We would rather support Melchior for the position, under the condition that he will marry a Leisegang wife.

Rozemyne: That might work, though I should warn you that she would certainly be demoted in favor of a first wife from a greater duchy. Many duchies are eager to gain a close connection to me because of this whole divine avatar of Mestionora business, and it is well known how much I cherish my adoptive siblings.

Leisegang: A wife from a greater duchy? That would reopen many old wounds and risk Ehrenfest being bossed around once again, perhaps it could cause another war. Will Aub Ehrenfest not strive to prevent history from repeating?

Rozemyne: If he follows my advice, he will not want one archduke candidate from a greater duchy to marry into the duchy.

Leisegang: That is very relieving to hear.

Rozemyne: If Charlotte becomes aub, she could take up to three husbands. Wilfried and Melchior starting branch families could have three wives each. If we play our cards right, we could have up to nine archduke candidates from other duchies marry into Ehrenfest within the next decade.

Leisegang: Nine?

Rozemyne: Of course each archduke candidate would bring retainers with them, probably several archnobles each. Especially if they're from greater duchies. That should greatly increase the sizes and available mana of both our archducal family and our general noble population, so that Ehrenfest will permanently stay a top-ranking middle duchy. With them they will bring their own cultures, recipes and stories, plenty of material to turn into books.

What if you... must keep a low profile.

But god said... (rotating yellow light)

"Moe kicking out barney from bar" meme.

Moe: Myne's guardians.

Barney: Myne's crazy antics.

Barney, returning from the other door: Rozemyne's crazy magical antics.

Death knocking at door meme.

Opened doors, blood spilling out from the rooms: Benno, Ferdinand, Sylvester.

Death knocking at the next door: Post-gremlin stress disorder.

The heroine realized she was in deep trouble; She barely escaped alive from those kidnappers. "Brother Syl told me to use this as a last resort, but I have no choice!"

Suddenly her necklace began to shine with a bright blue light, and before she knew it she was levitating into the air.

"Wh-what is happening?"

Soldier: "By the gods!"

Out of nowhere, a bright blue armor appeared and its parts got separated, covering her body one part at a time.

When our heroine was fully armored, she realized that her strength and stamina had multiplied by 1000 times. "What is this armor?"

"My liege" shouted her bodyguard, "it's the Cloth of Saint Ehrenfest!

"No!" shouted one of the devouring soldiers, "Th-th-that's IMPOSSIBLE! How could the sacred Cloth choose a mere commoner!"

"Run!" shouted another. "Our power is nothing compared to it!"

But the heroine knew what she had to do. She would not forgive them for hurting her precious little sister. Adopting a fighting stance, she began to trace with her arms the position of the stars of her protective constellation, and finally she shouted the sacred words.

"Give me your strength, Leidenschaft!"

In an instant, she launched one thousand punches at the devouring soldiers, each punch faster that the speed of sound.

"What is this garbage?" asked Ferdinand.

"It's a new genre of entertainment. I call it 'Shonen'."

"Fool. There's not one person in the world who would read this -"

Rozemyne pointed at her right.

"Have you finished the next chapter, Rozemyne?" asked Sylvester, all excited. "What happened to the heroes?"

Ferdinand sighed; he could do nothing but rest his head on his palm.

Myne: ...and Batman comes and catches the thief with his wonderful gadgets!

Ferdinand (rubbing his chin): So that's the fiction you propose.

Myne: That's right! What do you think?

Ferdinand: I have several issues with your story. First, why couldn't he kill them and stop them from committing more crimes?

Myne: Well, you see, his morality -

Ferdinand: Are you telling me it's more important to save the life of a criminal than the people affected by his crimes?

Myne: Well, I -

Ferdinand: Furthermore, this would never succeed in Ehrenfest. There's a reason why we have city walls and guards at the gates. Not to mention, any criminal, after being identified, would be executed by the Lord at once. No need to catch him, it can simply be done with magic.

Myne: Uh...

Ferdinand: And why couldn't the guards catch the thief? With the simple use of a magic tool, they could...

Myne: Argh, you don't let people have any fun!

Ferdinand: Speaking of fun, how are your harspiel lessons doing?

Myne: ...never mind.

From the part where she gives the guildmaster Freida's hairpins:

"Now now, wait a moment. I would like you to deliver them to Freida directly. She was very happy to have befriended a girl her age. I myself was overjoyed that she finally made a friend in her age group."

Wow... Freida made her first friend, huh? I don’t know who it is, but congratulations, I thought to myself, not really thinking about it too hard, when suddenly Benno crouched next to me and whispered into my ear.

"...You ended up friends with that geezer’s granddaughter?"

Oh, Myne... X-D

"Keep your guard up until the taunadel runs out of spines", Ferdinand said. "Each spine is poisonous, so getting stabbed would not be ideal."

"Yes, sir!" the knights barked again, all wearing stony expressions.

My ears twitched at his words. "Erm, Ferdinand... It seems to me that the poisonous spines are all jabbing into the fish. Will the meat still be edible?"

"I do not know," he replied curtly.

I took a sharp breath despite myself and cried, "What do you mean, you don't know?! I want you to teach me how to dissect the fish, not fight them!"

Sylvester, wearing a music band shirt and carrying a skater board: How do you do, fellow commoners?

Gloomy Mr. Incredible meme.

When a kid aims at you with a water gun: (Smile.)

When her name is Rozemyne: (Gloom and doom)

(Flash fiction by me)

Rozemyne (wearing a SWAT helmet, umpire uniform and a bulletproof vest): Let's go, I'm ready!
Ferdinand: What on Earth are you wearing?
Rozemyne: Fish cooking gear.

Balloon: Sea food.
Pink monster holding person back: Politics.

"But Ferdinand", asked Karstedt, "what makes you so confident that Rozemyne will succeed at a tea party this time?"

Tapping his temple, Ferdinand responded calmly. "I used the memory searching magic tool to find the cause for Rozemyne's unpredictable behavior, and after weeks of searching, we finally found a solution."

"Oh, what is it?"

"It turns out that all Rozemyne requires is a particular concoction whose specifics she learned by chance in her past life; it is far more difficult to prepare than a jureve, but the ingredients can easily be obtained."

At that moment a white bird landed on the table. After Ferdinand cast Ordonnanz the bird spoke three times with Rozemyne's voice:

"Good news, everyone! The tea party concluded without incidents!"

"Amazing!" shouted Sylvester, butting in the conversation. "Ferdinand, you have to tell me, what is this new concoction you made?"

"Rozemyne calls it 'Adderall.'"

Confused baroque guy meme.

Text: It seems that he keeps a book to keep it quiet for two days after the fever has fallen. "If you do not make it a good boy, the book will be checked" was told.

Confused baroque guy: ...

Sure, I got Myne and Tuuli protected right here -

Aaaaaaaand they're gone.

"That's the second time I've failed to finish a baptism ceremony [due to fainting]. Hopefully there won't be a third time..." (Part 3, vol. 1)

Chibi Myne: And that my friends, is what we in the writing biz call "foreshadowing."

Otto: "And that puts her at risk of getting abducted by outside nobles."
