Rozemyne explaining to Ferdinand:
P5V8P3
May we also admire the accidental brilliance of Rozemyne choosing a tablet form for her Grutrissheit? Prince Sigiswald literally saw her using it and he completely missed it!
Meanwhile, in Damuel's thoughts...
From: Anwachs
To: Rozemyne
Subject: Eat me 🍄
And so closes this chapter. Can't wait till we get to Volume 7! 😃
awwww she met her dad!
Oh nice! This looked much different from what I imagined from the novels! I expected a colliseum alright, but didn't expect a white paved floor.
Great sling shot from Judithe.
She went too soft on them, IMO. I wanted her to lash out and even crush them for opposing the gods' divine wills for their petty power play.
Oh, well 🤷
Ooh, nice!
I can't wait to see Benno's reaction when he learns that Rozemyne
Pre-pub spoilers
just became a Zent candidate.
Hartmut and Rozemyne
Yes, it's pretty explicit. They even say that Myne and books are an explosive combination, and "never get in the way between her and her books". An important noble even calls her "a book obsessed gremlin" and gets reprimanded for doing so.
Read the novels, you'll love them.
I must have accidentally begun an entirely different ceremony.
Ended without incident
Er, Rozemyne... 🙄
"Alright, Rozemyne, tell me exactly how you negotiated with the royal family." He looked unmistakeably angry for some reason.
His eyes narrowed, he started grinding a finger into my cheek.
"Pooey...?"
"No!"
🤣
Spoiler tags for images?
Does Lemmy implement a spoiler mode for images? Or perhaps it can be implemented with a custom CSS?

What if you... must keep a low profile.
But god said... (rotating yellow light)
The fun is just beginning, LOL
"Moe kicking out barney from bar" meme.
Moe: Myne's guardians.
Barney: Myne's crazy antics.

Three down, who's next? 🤭

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

If Honzuki were a Shonen-battle story (with apologies to Saint Seiya)
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.
Fanfic: Myne pitches Batman to Ferdinand
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.
Myne is really clueless at times... well, most of the time, really.
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
My favorite snip from this chapter: An unexpected battlefield
"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 in this episode
Sylvester, wearing a music band shirt and carrying a skater board: How do you do, fellow commoners?
It's just a children's toy, I swear!
Gloomy Mr. Incredible meme.
When a kid aims at you with a water gun: (Smile.)
When her name is Rozemyne: (Gloom and doom)
Overprepared
(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.
Experiencing true terror
Gloomy Mr. Incredible meme.
Receiving scoldings from Ferdinand: Everything's fine.
NOT receiving scoldings from Ferdinand: Doom and gloom.
My delicious plans, foiled again!
Run away balloon meme.
Person reaching for balloon: Rozemyne. Balloon: Sea food. Pink monster holding person back: Politics.
Ferdinand's newest concoction
"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.'"
Reading the MTL web novels be like...
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: ...
j-novel club, it's legally licensed to sell the works. You can either subscribe or purchase the pre-pub novels. Not entirely sure if subscribing allows you to read finished novels, tho 🤔 I think it does, but I can't confirm (never subscribed).
Oh no, I made a few typos 😅
She rarely does 😅
I think that in the end, the library thing might have saved Rozemyne. By making it her most serious personal condition, royals can still deny it and save face as "the ones with authority", while still accepting the conditions for Ehrenfest, as those are minor things that can be easily done.
Let's see how things unfold.
Rozemyne: Can I speak freely without getting executed?
Sigi: Yes, you may.
Myne-Oh: Good.
Sigi: Wait, why did your eyes and hair change? What are you doing with those cards?
Myne-Oh: I activate pot of greed!
