Wow! So much world building. Roublat thinks that Ferdinand used Rozmyne to gain Gbook.
I am glad Gervosio couldn’t go into closed archive. He also can’t get the knowladge that Rozmyne gobbled up in her e-book. I think the only thing that he willl be able to gain is Georgines memories, as she is the only one that died between Roz obtaing the book and current predicament.
I wonder if “flower offerings” euphenism comes from adalgisa villa where thay used that to code the true meaning of what happens there.
Charlotte is cute as ever.
Thanks to Tollkühnheit we know for a fact that multiple people can have a full Grutrissheit at the same time.
The situation between Rozemyne and Ferdinand is unique to them, due to their mana being so similar that Erwärmen can’t tell them apart. But Gervasio has completely seperate mana, which means if he can pass “Gramp’s” test, and doesn’t fumble the receiption of the knowledge, he will get his own fully filled Grutrissheit just fine. The former one being the bigger if.
I wonder why Gervasio didn’t just have one of his retainers fetch a set of silver clothing and just walk through that barrier. I highly doubt they didn’t bring a single set with them to the Sovereignty. Then again, they were already in the library, so it was probably faster to give it at least a try, before risking another discovery, should Raufen have ignored the order to stay in his dormitory.
Now the big question is, can Gervasio pass “Gramp’s” test of character. He seems to care mostly for his own reasons, rather than the good of Yurgenschmidt, so I think he should be booted out, but his motives weren’t clear enough to be certain. But even if he’s not allowed to meet Erwärmen, he can still fall back on using silver clothes to bypass the barrier, or try to force the current royals to register him as one of them to get through it, if they really don’t have any silver clothes with them for some reason, so the danger isn’t over either way.
Probably couldn’t teleport the magic immune cloth.
If you couldn’t bring silver clothing through teleporters, the silver cloth could never have been brought into Yurgenschmidt to begin with, what with the country gate being a giant teleporter.
A shame about Hortensia. I was sure Raublut would keep her alive, so they could use her to open the underground archive… Well, at least Solange is (relatively) safe and sound, thanks to Gervasio liking her.
Though now I can very well understand why Raublut hates the current royals and Klassenberg. They could have just sent the residents of the Adalgisa villa back to Lanzenave, but instead executed them all for essentially no reason. With how Trauerqual resisted the purge and only eventually gave in to Klassenberg’s and his other allies’ pressure, I am certain the execution of the Adalgisa residents was also something forced on him. After all he refused to execute even those with close ties to the guilty, so I can’t imagine him wanting to execute completely innovent people. This reluctance would also explain why Raublut still harbours some sympathy for Trauerqual, rather then being completely blinded by lust for his blood.
But damn, Hortensia must have been on the lower end of archnoble mana capacity if it took her a full day to dye one key, while Gervasio’s retainers were able to do it in the blink of an eye.
This also means that Gervasio has high archduke candidate manalevel retainers with him, since even Hannelore struggled a bit to full the key and she’s from a greater duchy.
