The Battle of Gerlach begins at last. How does Rozemyne’s fight against Grausam play out, and what happens to Ehrenfest in the aftermath? Behold the full extent of the explosive war shaking Yurgenschmidt to its very foundation!
Guess we have it hard confirmed now, what we essentially already knew before, but didn’t have spelled out: People in silver cloth can neither use magic, nor be targeted by Ordonnanzes.
I wonder if Giebe Gerlach was also healed by Rozemyne’s healing… and if he was, hopefully Grausam was already out on the balcony, so he didn’t notice, or he’d sure have “re-applied” those wounds.
Nice of Kazuki-sensei to close off a “plot hole” that wasn’t even one. I don’t think anyone would ever have complained about Rozemyne not recognizing the voice of the masked attacker as Grausam’s, after hearing only one or two sentences from him at her first spring prayer tour. And yet, even if some nitpicker were to bring it up, the body double neatly closes it off anyway. ^^
Though I am a bit confused by the barrier around the estate: Is blocks people from entering, but does not ward off attacks? So enemies can not enter, but are free to blast fireballs into it and burn it down? That seems like something of a design flaw to me. Or is the barrier designed to not encompass the balcony?
Yeah that barrier doesn’t seem to block attacks, only people. I’ve been under the assumption the giebe estates are white stone buildings which wouldn’t burn down, but I’m not positive.
Not really a plot hole, but an inconsistency I noticed in the prologue:
On countless occasions since Georgine had discovered that Ehrenfest’s foundation was hidden within its temple, Grausam and his accomplices had attempted to sneak inside—but then Rozemyne had been adopted by the archduke and assigned to serve as the High Bishop.
That seems to imply that Georgine discovered the temple foundation entrance before Rozemyne was adopted and made the High Bishop. Georgine didn’t visit Ehrenfest and obtain Bezewanst’s letters until almost a year after Rozemyne was adopted. That either means that Georgine knew about the temple entrance long before obtaining those letters or maybe it’s a mistranslation?
Thinking about it more I’d say there was probably a word omitted. I’m thinking it was supposed to be:
On countless occasions since Georgine had discovered that Ehrenfest’s foundation was hidden within its temple, Grausam and his accomplices had attempted to sneak inside—but by then Rozemyne had been adopted by the archduke and assigned to serve as the High Bishop.
In Bezewanst’s prologue chapter, where he meets with Grausam, Bindewald and Gloria, they talk about having received a letter in which Georgine heavily hinted at having discovered, how to get into the Foundation, so it could check out, that their first attempts were made, or at least planned, before the adoption, and likely frustrated by Ferdinand’s presence. Though with how little time there was between that meeting and the kidnapping attempt, I can see why they might just not have had an opportunity, before the adoption.
Or they might have prioritized getting rid of Myne, believing that this would also get rid of, or at least weaken, Ferdinand and thus make it easier to make a move on the temple in the future, once Georgine was ready to invade.
It could even be, that Bindewald was going to the temple primarily to facilitate Georgine’s taking of the Foundation, and kidnapping Myne was only the secondary objective and we just didn’t learn of it, because they didn’t take Bezewanst into their confidence. Though while I can see it being possible, I think that last option is rather unlikely. With Bindewald being interrogated with a mind-reading magic tool, chances are, Sylvester would have learned of this, had it been the case… then again, the tools aren’t infallible, especially not if Trug was involved.
