    <Ascendance of a Bookworm>

    How is a bookless scrub a prince?

    This is a major plot hole! How does someone with no books become a prince? It makes no sense!

      Hello Bookworm! I looked it up, and the Library in Alexandria — which just so happens to be the greatest in all of Yurgenschmidt, nay… even the entire world — has the following entries:

      Ascendance of a Bookworm by J-Novel Club: 📖 Vol. 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 9, 10, 11, 12; 🖥️ Vol. 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 9, 10, 11, 12; 🎧 Vol. 1, 2

      Nope. His father was never high on the royal hierarchy and only became Zent because everyone else got killed. After that, the family was barely keeping the country from falling apart after the civil war. It’s perfectly normal that an expensive personal library wouldn’t be high on his agenda. And since everyone is trying to keep Rozemyne’s personality under wraps, especially towards the royals, it’s understandable that they don’t know what the right bait would be to hook her.

        No excuses! A bookless scrub is a bookless scrub!

        Surely a member of the royal family no matter how far from the top would have some books?
