Ascendance of a Bookworm: Part 2 Volume 4

The long winter comes to an end and vibrant spring returns to Ehrenfest. The temple swirls busily as attempts to control Myne's future escalate and the High Bishop, fueled by hate, shrouds the city in the darkness of his nefarious plots. But Myne just wants everything to stay the same. Her little brother has been born, she's making new books thanks to her progress making ink, and she wants nothing more than to just keep spending more heart-warming time with her family and friends. The world, however, forces her to make a cruel and unbearable decision. To protect those she loves, she must begin walking a new road.
Part 2 of this bibliofantasy concludes in this heart-wrenching volume! There's a collection of short stories following the shocking climax, as well as two completely original short stories and a four-panel manga drawn by You Shiina.

wrote them imagining what Lutz and Myne could have been like if Myne didn’t have the Devouring and could have kept making paper with Lutz instead of going to the temple.

you listening, Sylvester?”

“Look, think about it—we’ve got a lot to talk to Benno about, don’t we? Like all that stuff about spreading the printing business,” I said, which also earned me a raised eyebrow from Karstedt.

“Just summon him here. What need is there for the archduke himself to visit the lower city?!”

“Oh, there’s a big need, and that need is located in my stomach. I’m gonna eat that food no matter what.”

“At least think of a good excuse!”

Don’t become an archduke, kids. You can’t even walk through your own city without needing a thousand layers of excuses and an elaborate plot. It’s a pain, but I probably should think of a good reason for this.

...Tch. Here comes the annoying lecture. Look at Mr. Logic Man, all serious and stubborn, and as flexible as a stone wall. Why’d we let him grow up to be like this? He acts so old and mature because he doesn’t appreciate fun in the slightest.
