55% Ryza has been secretly bathing with hot water. Is that something everyone in the orphanage does?

I don't recall any character called Ryza and it isn't a name that pops up in any of the online character lists I checked. Is the choice of transliteration different here to how the name is used elsewhere? "Ryz" is not a traditional Japanese transliteration.

Alternatively, is this a character from an untranslated side story, manga chapter or other project not available on JNC?

@cureClover This issue has been addressed and rectified. An updated version of the volume is available to download from JNC. This change will be reflected on other webstores per these retailers' timelines.

@Foxtale I think that is the story in Drama CD 7 called "Forced choice" in an unofficial translation.

It isn't as easy to notice with a digital copy but that is definitely a thick volume, it looks like it is at least 2/3 the size of the isekai tensei omnibus and it is only one volume.

@adnega Thank you very much!

@dutenhnj Angelica's apparently a stronger knight than Traugott even at his graduation after several years of Bonifatius himself trying to beat him into better shape, so that's not saying much.

@kuali

Okay it seems to be working now! For #1 it's as you said, i thought the settings would be saved (duh) from the previous version so i did not fiddle with that, but after i did, the behaviour was back to normal.

Also regarding the json file mentioned in #2, i couldn't have added a duplicate entry as i had used the previous version's edited json and added the new fb6 into that previous version and saved over it. So for some reason that didn't work, but regardless, i used the current new json and manually edited the names of whatever i did previously over it and it worked! So i dont know, it could be a user issue at the end of the day.

But anyways thanks for checking for me and everything is fine now!

@Uraelius said in HFYatRA - Hannelore's Fall (Fan Fiction):

It was Ortwin's job to draw a sizable portion of the Korinthsdaum knight's order through the release of artificially enlarged feybeasts while visiting the border province overseen by his sister Adolphine.

Ortwin: "Hey sister, would you like to help me and my friend Wilfried majorly screw over Sigiswald?"
Adolphine: "Absolutely! When do we get started?"

LOL, that would have essentially been the outcome. My rough idea is that his sister's land was merely a convenient staging ground where he could claim to visit his dear sister and carry out the "attack" without her knowledge (to shield her from any adverse outcomes). After being tipped off by a loyal retainer, Adolphine stops Ortwin and scolds him for trying to stir up trouble with a higher ranking duchy (mistaking his actions as an attempt to get petty revenge for his sister). Ortwin confesses that he is attempting to aid Wilfred so that Hannelore doesn't suffer the same fate as Adolphine. Adolphine agrees to help, citing Sigiswald's spreading of malicious rumors of her as a convenient excuse for her involvement. After which, she scolds Ortwin for his poor choice of feybeast, tells him to use one that would demand more attention from Korinthsdaum's knight order, provides him with several full fist-sized feystones, and tells him to take extensive notes on the experiment's outcome and not be late for dinner.

Alright, Fanbook 6 time!

We have Dirk's Preparing to Become a Noble. I think this one goes after P5V6's Magic Tools for Children. Which is where I've stuffed Detlinde's The Lanzenave Envoys.

@kuali said in Alternate Reading Order:

First is Detlinde's The Lanzenave Envoys. I don't really have a specific position for this one. Its before the funeral and after the Archduke Conference... That said, I don't really want to break up the block of chapters from Report on the Archduke Conference to Mother and Daughter, to put it between the two Papermaking chapters, or put it back-to-back with My Hopes and Their Problems, which leaves... Either after Prologue or after Magic Tools for Children. In think, in this case, I'll go for the latter - making it the final chapter dealing with the aftermath of the Archduke Conference.

In which case, I think I might move Detlinde's chapter to after Making Maximal-Quality Samples. Giving us a running order of:

Mother and Daughter My Hopes and Their Problems [Lieseleta] Magic Tools for Children Preparing to Become a Noble [Dirk] Preparing Fey Paper Making Maximal-Quality Samples The Lanzenave Envoys [Detlinde] The Spring Coming-of-Age Ceremony and Sylvester's Departure

Then we have the Manga chapter From Me to You. Rozemyne's in the High Priest robes, but Kamil's still a baby, so this has to be in Part 3 somewhere. I haven't the faintest clue where, though. Any suggestions?

Edit: For now, I think I'll pick after Discussing How to Improve Hasse, where Benno's being overworked thanks to Sylvester's not-yet-reduced development schedule for the printing industry.

Then another Manga chapter, Hartmut's Vow. This comes between Rozemyne picking Hartmut and Traugott as retainers, and them formally beginning the roles. This puts it in the gap between My Retainers and Entering the Dormitory and The Better Grades Committee, either before or after Ferdinand's After her Departure. Unless people have strong feelings on the matter, I'll probably go for after.

QA changes have been applied to this volume's streaming copy. As per usual, additional updates may not be ported to this copy in future.

How come the audiobook for "Ascendance of a Bookworm: Part 1, Volume 3" does not appear to be available anywhere other than audible (at least in the US)? It's not on Libro.fm or AudiobooksNow.com (my two preferred digital audiobook retailers). I asked AudiobooksNow.com and they said there is an issue with the files they received and they were going to reach out to the distributer to fix it, but that was months ago. I was just wondering what the issue is since audible seems to have worked it out.

@Aradethcis We can't comment on upcoming releases before they are announced, but please rest assured that part 3 has not been forgotten. Please look forward to reading more of Rozemyne's adventures in part 3 soon!
