Ascendance of a Bookworm Books in Order

After dying in an accident, book-obsessed college student Urano wakes as Myne, a sickly five-year-old in a poor fantasy-world family. With books nearly nonexistent and far beyond her means, she decides to make them herself.

Myne and her friend Lutz try to create a workable paper prototype for merchant Benno. Their bargain could launch their apprenticeships, but difficult experiments, a shrewd employer, and Myne's worsening illness threaten to derail everything.

Myne's paper-making efforts finally gain momentum, but the dangerous condition known as the Devouring sends her collapsing again. As her family and allies search for answers, her dream of filling the world with books faces its first serious limits.

Now baptized, Myne enters the temple as an apprentice shrine maiden and finally finds a room full of books. Noble prejudice, unruly attendants, and her fragile health quickly prove that access to a library comes with a steep price.

A new sibling inspires Myne to make a picture book, even as temple lessons, attendants, and orphanage duties overwhelm her. Her extraordinary mana is becoming impossible to hide, drawing her closer to the dangerous world of nobles.

After displaying immense mana before the Knight's Order, Myne becomes a target for people who see only her value. Sheltered in the temple for winter, she keeps pursuing cheaper books while uncertainty about her future closes in.

Spring brings new books, a baby brother, and precious time with Myne's family, but powerful enemies are moving against her. To protect the people she loves, she must make a painful decision that will change her life completely.

Forced to leave her lower-city family, Myne becomes Rozemyne, adopted daughter of Ehrenfest's archduke. Etiquette, magic training, and temple duties await, but the promise of keys to the book room gives her a reason to endure.

Rozemyne struggles to manage temple work, new orphans, local disputes, and preparations for the Harvest Festival. Visits with her old family and time in the book room help, but a dangerous gathering expedition is fast approaching.

Winter fills Rozemyne's schedule with noble ceremonies, temple duties, tutoring, and work on a better printing press. As her mana grows stronger, she joins the Knight's Order in dangerous seasonal rituals and gathers ingredients for a vital potion.

Rozemyne expands the printing industry with picture books, music collections, and knight stories, then travels to Illgner to teach paper-making. But an uneasy visit from the archduke's sister brings noble tensions to the surface.

Rozemyne seeks the last ingredient needed for a jureve that may finally improve her health. While she strengthens paper-making and fulfills High Bishop duties, political plots inside the temple threaten to decide her future for her.

After two years asleep, Rozemyne wakes to a changed Ehrenfest and must begin life at the Royal Academy. She intends to master magic and noble studies, but the academy's enormous library immediately becomes her real priority.

Rozemyne's frantic effort to reach the Royal Academy library alarms her retainers and teachers. A dispute with Dunkelfelger over its magical librarians leads to a ditter match, while her careless diplomacy creates problems across the academy.

Back in Ehrenfest, Rozemyne juggles temple work, printing, rituals, and a mountain of paperwork. As her first academy year ends, tea parties, graduations, and discussions of her future engagement show how much her position has changed.

Summer begins after Rozemyne's first Royal Academy year, bringing spring prayers, magic ink, and plans to keep making books. Her engagement to Wilfried is announced as Ehrenfest works to resist pressure from more powerful duchies.

Rozemyne pursues workshops, a dyeing competition, and plans for a future library as Ehrenfest's lower city changes around her. Yet a wedding and the lingering former Veronica faction reveal how quickly local projects become interduchy politics.

Rozemyne returns for a second year at the Royal Academy determined to build her Library Committee. New allies, powerful duchies, royal attention, and a dangerous feybeast make her book-driven plans far more complicated than expected.

A bookworm tea party ends with Rozemyne fainting and returning to Ehrenfest before school is over. A troubling discovery in the bible, academy investigations, and the Interduchy Tournament raise the pressure on her and Ferdinand.

During a calmer winter at home, Rozemyne meets her new baby brother, experiments with food, and investigates family history. Her peace ends when Ferdinand reveals painful secrets about his birth and the choice facing Ehrenfest.

A royal decree orders Ferdinand to leave Ehrenfest, forcing Rozemyne to confront the loss of her closest supporter. As they prepare a final farewell, a sudden incident threatens to separate them before either is ready.

Ehrenfest faces its first winter without Ferdinand, with betrayal and a purge intensifying old factional wounds. Rozemyne begins her third Royal Academy year, recruits unlikely allies, and discovers that her standing in the country has shifted again.

Rozemyne is summoned to the underground archive beneath the Royal Academy library while Ferdinand faces danger in Ahrensbach. A research project and a bride-taking ditter match put Rozemyne's hand in marriage, and much more, at stake.

Rumors of trug and interference by Sovereign knights linger after Rozemyne's ditter match. With the Interduchy Tournament ahead and Ferdinand expected in Ehrenfest, Rozemyne focuses on one goal: making their reunion happen safely.

The winter purge leaves Ehrenfest's balance of power badly shaken, and Rozemyne must make a difficult choice. Between merchant meetings, divine rituals, and training the next High Bishop, the younger generation tries to bridge old divides.

At the Archduke Conference, Rozemyne performs the Starbind Ceremony and studies old documents in a hidden archive. Unexpected consequences pull her into royal struggles over future Zent candidates, though she still sees a chance to negotiate.

After the Archduke Conference, Rozemyne announces that the king will adopt her, throwing Ehrenfest into turmoil. With only a year before she must leave for the Sovereignty, she and her retainers face choices that will shape their futures.

As Rozemyne prepares for a future move to the Sovereignty, Ferdinand senses a growing threat. Her fourth year at the Royal Academy begins with unfamiliar faces, an unexpected journey, and an incident that leaves Ahrensbach in crisis.

Determined to save Ferdinand, Rozemyne uses the Book of Mestionora and allies with Dunkelfelger to reach Ahrensbach. War soon spreads to Ehrenfest, where temple workers and lower-city commoners must help defend their duchy.

The Battle of Gerlach begins, and Rozemyne joins Matthias against the ruthless Giebe Grausam. Body doubles, hidden schemes, and collateral damage complicate the fight as the conflict shakes Ehrenfest and the wider country.

Rozemyne, Ferdinand, and their Dunkelfelger allies move against the Adalgisa villa, only to uncover betrayal among the Sovereign knights. Their mission turns toward the Royal Academy library as the Battle of the Sovereignty reaches its climax.

Ferdinand begins a revolution meant to replace Yurgenschmidt's broken royal order with a true Zent. As the Grutrissheit transference ceremony nears, Rozemyne faces divine interference while holding tight to her dream of Library City.

Rozemyne lies unconscious after casting a massive spell, leaving Ferdinand to save her life and recover what she has lost. Her survival will determine whether she can begin a new future as Alexandria's young aub.
