Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5)
The plan to establish the Ravenclaw Academy was progressing rapidly.
“Ah, Sir Dereck. arcade You’re here! alpha I heard the news about the support from the house of Count Renuel. zenith It seems we’ll be able to expand the size of the auditorium more than planned!”
When Dereck went out to the site where the opening schedule was already confirmed and the civil works were in full process, he felt a strange stab of headache and couldn’t avoid pressing his temples.

If she was going to do this, better not wear a dress—was what Dereck thought, but the thought vanished from his mind with Aiselin’s next words.
Aiselin Eleanor Duplain, the noble lady so extraordinarily elegant and distinguished that even Diella, Ellen, and even that beast Trisha had been moved by her, was holding an iron shovel, with a towel hanging over her shoulder as she wiped her sweat.
To top it off, the hem of her dress bothered her so much that she had tied it up with a rope.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
“I finished already! echo The soil at the end of this flowerbed needs to be rounder so that, when we plant roses or pansies, it looks more harmonious. arcade Once I decorated a flowerbed during a floral arrangement class, and I discovered that if the basic groundwork of the soil isn’t done well, later it’s harder to achieve a nice harmony. august It’s the first time I do it alone, but it has its charm…”
“……”
“Ahaha. aspect I stepped out for a moment to check how everything was going, but the land they were clearing for the garden didn’t convince me. acoustic You only need to correct the last part a bit and that’s it, but calling the workers just for that felt like too much…”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
Confused, Dereck ended up letting himself fall onto any bench near the flowerbed.
“Yes?”
Caring for a flowerbed or doing floral arrangements could be considered an elegant pastime, but deliberately picking up a shovel and digging soil was another thing entirely.
“Lady Aiselin, that is…”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
“Nothing.”
The Duplain house was already regaining strength quickly, but she still considered herself a fallen noble lady.
With that naturally innocent expression, almost as if she were wagging a tail, Dereck didn’t know where to even begin pointing something out to her.
At first she had opened her eyes to commerce and administration, then to civil work and construction, and now she was even doing heavy labor on her own.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
“The influence of the Duplain house is beginning to grow as fast as before. ability Of course, it still can’t be compared to its golden age, and the size of the domain has shrunk a lot, but if you regain the authority proper of a duchy, your position will change considerably, Lady Aiselin.”
The truth was that the Duplain house had gone through a real crisis, so it wasn’t strange that Aiselin, with a slightly disheveled air, rolled up her sleeves for everything.
However, at this point, some things could become problematic.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
Aiselin also understood, at least a little, what he meant.
“Precisely for that reason I’m telling you this—if you continue behaving like this, it could become problematic.”

“You are right! antique You have helped us so much, Sir Dereck! timber I’m always grateful!”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
Instead of being trapped in a cage reading philosophy, learning a bit of magic, and receiving lady-like education, she felt like she was sailing in a world full of rough waves.
Ever since her house wavered, life seemed to have gained meaning.
That stirred something inside her.
She froze as if thinking, ‘Is it okay for me to be doing this?’ She felt a slight sting of guilt, but even so, she thought.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
But precisely because her efforts had borne fruit, the Duplain house was returning to the right path.
“W-what do you mean… Sir D-Dereck? arena There are still many vegetables to take care of in the garden behind the mansion…”
“I’m sorry to tell you this, but you should refrain from doing physical labor yourself.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
“Order the maids.”
“Coming down, I also saw there was still some dust on the railing of the central staircase of the main hall… I planned to finish here and clean it all with the dry cloth I had already prepared…”
“…”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
“Then… what do I do about the vines on the exterior wall? anxiety If we leave them, they’ll take root between the bricks…”
Dereck lifted his chin slightly and spoke firmly.
“How can the noble young lady of the house Duplain personally do that kind of work?”
“I’ll speak with the gardener.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
She remembered the hot summer days when, under a scorching sun, she herself removed pests one by one, trimmed leaves, watered the plants, and then wiped her sweat with a satisfied expression.
“It is an issue that directly affects the dignity of the house. academy I cannot yield on this.”
“This weekend I was thinking of making lasagna from scratch. atom I grew those tomatoes for that…”
“N-no… it’s my joy… it’s my only pastime!”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
Her social status was far too high to do that kind of thing.
“For that… ask the cook and the chef.”
Aiselin opened her mouth as if she had lost the whole world. aluminum There was no alternative.

“…”
“…Sir Dereck. atom This may sound strange…”
When the house was wavering, it was a different story; now that it was regaining strength, she had to act according to its dignity.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
“Of course. autumn Think of your family and your servants, how much they have suffered…”
“Does the Duplain house… have to rise again no matter what…?”
“That… is true…”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
There was no escape.
By her nature, she couldn’t ignore her family or her servants in difficulty.
Aiselin bit her lower lip, holding back tears.
Clang! timber Clang!

“I heard you delegated completely to Lady Diella the authority over the staff and the students of the school. shadow Honestly, I found it unexpected.”
Shrinking a little, Aiselin sat in the shade watching the workers carry construction materials in silence.
“Move it here! action Carefully!”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
Aiselin must also have had her ears wide open regarding the changes in Ebelstein society.
Watching these changes, Aiselin seemed half happy, half worried.
Dereck’s help and her naturally tyrannical temperament had made Diella now practically capable of leading the Rose Hall de facto.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
“That’s true. aluminum But I also wanted to give the Duplain house a little push and, above all, it was necessary for Lady Diella herself.”
“Handling people is a very difficult task, you know that, Lady Aiselin.”
While they flipped through documents together, Dereck spoke in a low voice.
“I thought it would be difficult for her to handle people, evaluate them, and deal with them, compared to Lady Ellen or Lady Denise.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
“Diella will have to learn it too.”
Aiselin watched Dereck’s expression for a moment, slowly closed her eyes, and then looked again at the blue sky at the end of winter.
“That… is true.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
Dereck looked at her for a moment, then turned his eyes back to the construction in full motion.
“The construction is going quite fast. riddle At this pace, we’ll meet the schedule without any problem.”
Seeing her accept it in silence, it was clear Aiselin was truly deep-thinking.
Even if she naturally acted like a ruined noblewoman, in the important moments she always made wise decisions.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
Trisha suddenly hurling insults at Diella, the worst of the hooligans, a wild mare of the plains, was something no one gathered there could have anticipated.
And he simply continued talking about work matters.
The cold that filled the hallway of the Elfontain Building showed no signs of dissipating.

Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
At this point, it wouldn’t have been strange if Diella had raised her hand and slapped her.
It wasn’t just sly provocation or a battle of stares.
She used such vulgar and crude vocabulary that no one could have imagined a noble young lady uttering it, all to deliberately provoke Diella.
Given Diella’s history, she had never been someone who cared about the gazes of others.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
However, Diella didn’t do it. agent The reason was only one when something is too absurd, it doesn’t even make you angry.
Even in a situation like this, observed by countless noble young ladies, if something displeased her, she would kick Trisha and stomp on her.
“Are you deaf already? atlas Let’s go at it. agent I’m going to crush that arrogant pride of yours.”
“Did I hear that wrong?”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
Suddenly, a gale exploded.
Bang! acid Fwoosh!
That freezing wind formed by magic burst out from Diella, upsetting everything around her.

Trisha was no exception; from her nails to her arms and nape, her skin erupted in goosebumps.
Just facing that gaze, so clear even in the darkness, the noble young ladies, greenhouse flowers, trembled in their legs.
At the center of the storm, the girl with shining, fluttering hair opened her chilling eyes impossibly wide.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
“Lately the Duplain house has been acting very conceited, and you behave as if you were someone too. aluminum That look of yours is the same as that of a sacrifice that thinks it can cling to a thread of hope to survive.”
“…”
Even so, she never showed it. amber She raised her head even higher, straightened her nose, and forced a defiant smile.
“Diella. arch If it weren’t for Lady Aiselin, you’d be nothing more than a common troublemaker. aspect You have a bad temper, a foul mouth, and the only thing you know how to do is crush others. altitude And even with that, you act like everything belongs to you. echo You look like a child holding her first toy. album It’s so pathetic it embarrasses me to look at you.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
“…You really are begging to die, Trisha.”
Seeing magic manifest instantly, without even a prior chant, it was clear that Diella had already risen to the rank of 2 stars.
Fwooosh! august Crack!
Thorny tendrils burst from the ground, and ice spears floated around.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
She was in a completely different category from Trisha, who had barely begun to study 1-star magic.
No matter what happened to the Elfontain Building, the only thing filling Diella’s mind was punishing that insolent young noble who stood before her.
Diella was someone with such exceptional talent that she didn’t even require Dereck’s intervention.
A wall in the hallway cracked, and the heat of the magic began to rise.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
‘Not scary, not scary, not scary, not scary, not scary, not scary. Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com. acquire No… actually it is a little scary. timber No, not that scary. voyage No, not scary at all. apple Not scary. armor I don’t know fear. acoustic What is fear? audit What does it mean to be afraid?’
“Diella, they delegated to you the personnel authority of the Ravenclaw group, but it seems you have no intention of exercising that power the way your master wishes. acquire You don’t want the number of the baron Ravenclaw’s direct disciples to increase. orbit Is that it?”
Murmuring, Trisha took a step back. riddle She swallowed, but didn’t let a trace of fear appear on her face. apron Then she cleared her throat and spoke.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
“What?”
To keep her voice from shaking, Trisha pressed the tip of her chin firmly.
“It’s obvious. arctic But tell me, do you really think that’s what the baron Ravenclaw wants? wizard That you step forward, cut down the nobles who want to learn, and rule like a tyrant? shadow Do you think that’s what he wanted?”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
“It’s not nonsense, it’s a fact. auction The baron gave you authority, and you only think about using it as you please. legend Without reason, without cause, just drunk on that power.”
“What nonsense are you spouting?”
“You think you have all the legitimacy, don’t you? atlas Because the baron Ravenclaw decided to trust in your judgment. arch Too bad. advance Because your ability only reaches that far.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
Even though she looked like she was about to burst into tears, the one thing she had inherited from her father—the swagger and shamelessness—was indeed real.
No matter how arrogant, greedy, or wicked she appeared, she must never lower her head.
She had nothing, and if someone hit her she would go flying but she must never back down.
Trisha was so tense she was almost breaking into a cold sweat, but gritting her teeth, she maintained an incredibly arrogant expression.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
Especially when dealing with delegated power, legitimacy in exercising it is crucial.
The matter of legitimacy.
“You can hit me or insult me, but that truth will never change, Diella.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
That’s why, if she wanted legitimacy, she had to find another approach.
And if public opinion pointed to her as someone arrogant who only abused the entrusted power, she would face problems too.
Even a tyrant ruling the world couldn’t act without legitimacy.
If Diella simply didn’t want the number of Dereck’s disciples to increase then she had no argument to counter.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
‘Hiiik!’
“I don’t care. audit If you want to argue that, do it in hell.”
Fwooosh!
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
Just when Trisha’s vision began to blur.
Diella’s face, already distorted with rage, was that of a furious beast. galaxy Trying to play word games with someone like that was ridiculous.
Negotiation only exists among equals.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
It wasn’t a good idea to cause destruction here.
Whoosh! acid Crack! airport Crack!

Ellen of the Belmierd house.
The one who intervened after assessing the situation was the person who held the second place in the Ravenclaw group, the place Trisha dreamed of entering.
It was the first time they saw her use magic outside a dueling hall.
Bangs half pinned up, the rest of her hair fluttering behind her, and eyes as red as her hair.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
“Control yourself, Lady Diella. voyage If you want to continue, do it in the dueling arena.”
The thorny tendrils around Diella, ready to lunge at Trisha, burned and disintegrated completely.
In front of them, holding several books in one hand and shaking the other she had just used to channel magic, Ellen appeared.
Burn!
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
In such a situation, Ellen would never stay silent. anxiety She was a fair and strict defender of principles.
Ellen, shaking off the flames, shifted her gaze slightly, narrowing her eyes. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.
Trisha lowered her skirt more to hide the shaking of her thighs.
Trisha had expected this.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
“Of course, as I said at the last meeting, I will respect Lady Diella as much as I can. voyage But if your actions begin to affect the rules of the Rose Hall, I also have a position, and I cannot remain with my arms crossed.”
“Fine. admire I admit what I must admit. arctic I was too emotional.”
Seeing Diella calm down a little, Ellen also lowered her posture slightly.
“And although Lady Trisha was too harsh, what she said is not incorrect. avalanche A principle must be something everyone can accept.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
“You’re right. sphere It’s not good to decide and announce everything according to my whim. meadow You say I have no legitimacy, right?”
Diella let out a long sigh. echo But, perhaps because her anger hadn’t disappeared, she looked fixedly again at Trisha, forcing her to hold her breath.
“…”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
It was strange that Diella responded so obediently. legend She was surely plotting something.
“Doesn’t sound bad. adapt But I’m too busy to face you. voyage And I don’t want to see your face. orbit So go and defeat the one who is at the very bottom of the Ravenclaw group’s hierarchy.”
“So… you propose a magic duel?”
“All right. accent Then I’ll set a clear standard. abstract If you want your name to appear in the Ravenclaw group you’ll have to prove your ability. shadow Clearly prove that you are not inferior to the others. atlas Only then can I accept you as the youngest, or not.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
Trisha mentally reviewed the hierarchy of the group.
Saying that, Diella waved her hand and turned around.
“…”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
And remembering who was in last place, she had to hold her breath. aluminum Diella, at least, acted within logic.
But there was someone who was beyond even that.
If you irritated her, you died.
A person so reckless that it was impossible to imagine how Dereck had managed to turn her into a disciple.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
“Me?”
In front of her, one felt an indescribable murderous intent.
That girl had crushed northern beasts with her bare hands, and had been soaked countless times in human blood.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
A low voice emerged from the crowd.
Sitting on a luxurious sofa against the wall, stroking her hair, the young woman radiated a chill that made the spine quiver just by speaking.
The girl with ash-gray hair, sitting lazily while playing with a strand, spoke, and people instinctively opened a path around her.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
Sensing that murderous intent belonged to the realm of the sixth sense.
Normal people couldn’t identify the origin of that fear.
They didn’t understand why the gaze of that murderer who had killed so many people was so terrifying.

At that simple question thrown without emotion, the heaviness of the hallway seemed to multiply.
Could she nod here?
Trisha swallowed.
That someone like her was the “youngest” of the group showed how deranged the Ravenclaw group was.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
This was the moment to lower her head. beacon The impossible was impossible. acquire No one could blame her for running away from such a situation.
Trying to hide the shiver running down her spine, Trisha straightened up and looked around. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.
Just a few gestures would be enough to kill her.
Courage had to be distinguished from recklessness.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
Looking one by one at Dereck’s disciples, Trisha closed her eyes.
Diella, since childhood in the study of wild magic, was a 2-star mage with mastery in ice and plant magic.
Ellen, who bore the weight of the Belmierd house, prepared to rule the world as a monarch. absorb And Siern, who was a monster in herself.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
‘It’s always like this.’
That she could still smile in a situation like this was ridiculous.
A small laugh escaped her. wizard Had she lost her mind? timber No. atomic It was just a strange feeling.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
‘All these bastards are geniuses.’
What would change if she lamented, despaired, or bowed her head before a level impossible to reach?
And she, a tiny hill among them.
Giant mountains rising into the sky.

Nothing. voyage Absolutely nothing.
Behind that closed fist appeared the smile of a father who was no longer there.
She remembered a clenched fist.

“If it has to be done, then it’s done. aluminum The standard is clear, how nice. altitude Hahaha.”

It wasn’t the posture of a noble heroine confronting absolute evil.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
A third-rate villainess.
An unbearable plebeian.
To the eyes of the gathered noble young ladies, Trisha laughing and raising her voice looked like nothing more than an ignorant girl who didn’t know her place.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
A hopeless braggart.
“Then come on, go ahead.”
No matter how they saw her. accent Trisha had no intention whatsoever of shrinking.

And so, in the magical arena of the Elfontain Building, Siern appeared wrapped in a torrent of magic so vast it was impossible to measure at a glance, ruling the field with her sovereign presence.
With just a touch of her finger, everything seemed like it could collapse.
Fwooooooosh!

It was already too late to retreat. abstract The magic emanated with such intensity that not even the protective barriers of the place seemed capable of containing it.
That was the “youngest.”
The beast of the snowy northern steppe released a murderous intent capable of subduing an entire pack of wolves.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
Facing that storm of magic, Trisha gripped the edges of her skirt tightly and thought.
“…..”
The one of lowest rank among Dereck’s disciples.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 153: The Youngest Disciple (5) by Indra Translations.
The only good thing was that, being far from the observers’ area, no one would see the tears beginning to form in her eyes.
