    Lots of casual leg-breaking in this one.

    Sounds crunchy

    Raublut probably tricked Hildebrand into opening the door to the Farthest Hall. I hope he didn’t harm him, once he got what he needed from the boy, like he did with his wife.

    I also hope that whoever will do the judging in the end, will recognize that the boy was tricked and isn’t a traitor and thus deserves mercy. This feels like a repeat of what was discussed about Letizia, except this time Rozemyne might not be in a position to intervene on his behalf, when the time comes.

      I don’t know. When I read it I thought Sigiswald would do it. I just imagined him with the Joker’s smile. I do hope I’m wrong but his personality seems to be more like he has a God complex and that he’s none too pleased about Rozemyne being a better Zent candidate than him.

      Did Hildebrand see BIG Rozemyne? He had a resolve to commit treason just to marry his crush, but I can’t remember if he is over it or not.

        He was there alongside Sigiswald, when the freshly grown Rozemyne came out of the Farthest Hall, if I remember correctly, but we didn’t get to hear his thoughts on the matter, beyond surprise showing on his face.

        But considering how everyone says how beautiful Rozemyne is, now that she’s grown, I would suspect that sight only made his crush stronger, rather then dissipating his interest in her. Though I guess he might have some doubt about the age gap, now that it’s more visually obvious, but compared to some of the other age-gaps, their’s isn’t all that big, everything considered. He’s certainly closer to her in age than Ferdinand, and look how vehemently so many people (both inside the story and in the real world) are shipping them, in spite of how vocal they’ve been about not wanting to marry each other.

    My mental image is Justus dragging Detline by her feet to Roz, purposely dragging her over rocks and mud.

      I guess they could always put her with Fraularm. The two would make a nice duo 😉.

        As much as I hate Detlinde, I don’t think even she deserves that. Now Raublut on the other hand, should they manage to capture him alive…

    Ufff… today we have got some heavy action. Detline totally oblivious to her crimes. Rozmyne’s showmanship with g-book. Whole raid at Adalgisa villa.

    And Grevosio is missing.

    This really feels like we slowly crawl towards climax of the whole series.

    If it wasn’t for the fact that name-sworn die, when their master does, I would assume Alstede is one of Georgine’s name-sworn. If it wasn’t for this obsession/complete subjugation toward Georgine, I think I’d quite like her and the way she needles Detlinde with sarcastic comments, that go right over Detlinde’s head. ^^

    Though I am surprised she didn’t notice the foundation being stolen from her. I assumed that someone owning a foundation would feel something, if someone else took it, similar to how we’ve seen Rozemyne feel someone attacking the monastery barrier, but that is clearly not the case, if Alstede needed to hear about it from Raublut. Or maybe it’s because of the duchy barriers between her and her foundation… but I somehow dout it.
