Ascendance of a Bookworm: Adopted Daughter of an Archduke | Episode 01

[eivreh]

Professor Hirschur: "I found this out only recently, but the divide between Ahrensbach and Ehrenfest has grown quite severe as of late..."

Professor Rauffen: "You must be exaggerating. Besides, any problems between two duchies can be settled with a good ol’ game of ditter."

Professor Hirschur: "Dunkelfelger solutions are hardly going to work for us."

I can't help but notice that there's a lot of dialogues like these in AoaB wherein a character says something and the opposite happens in the future. This is apparently referred to as proleptic irony. I somehow like this better than regular foreshadowing because this is more subtle and can only be noticed through a reread (for me at least).

Can’t help but think this season is a little disjointed.. this episode felt like it came out of nowhere. Did get some nice moments with Myne and her dad which is always nice and we got our first big fight in ages set up for next week. But man some things feel random af. Glad we officially bought the kids from the mayor, but I can’t believe Wilfred really thought Myne had it easy when she needs magic stones just to survive.

Damuel x Soldiers at the Gate

How the Gate Soldiers react to Damuel.

As soldiers of the Gate, these commoner's have to screen everyone heading into the capital of Ehrenfest, whether they be commoner or noble. However, as commoners, any minor offense against the nobility entering the gates can earn a severe punishment. For commoners who lack etiquette training, interactions with nobles is a potentially lethal task.

As Lady Rozemyne's head knight and as a laynoble, Damuel is in a position where he communicates with both nobles and commoners. Knowing Myne's true origins, he acts as a shield for commoners against the nobility by handling the communication between the soldiers and nobles for urgent issues, such as when Clarissa arrived at Ehrenfest without the proper paperwork, or when the nobles needed to communicate information about the upcoming invasion from Ahrensbach. Even more so, he fought along aside them during the invasion itself.

He's a legit super star to them.
