Episode 35.7-8 (1/2)

”The path that will not shame my father as his child.”

Those words hit Norma like a revelation.

That's right.

That's what important.

All other matters come after.

How could she overlook something so simple.

Her duty is not releasing her father's writing to the world.

Her duty is releasing what her father wanted to leave behind to the world.

Anyone could see Sasfrey's writing if they just look at the documents in person.

However, the only one who knows what Sasfrey really wanted to write is her alone as his sole daughter and student.

Her father won't be happy having documents he wrote in his youth published. He would want later works that have undergone revisions from new knowledge to get published instead.

However, that is something her late father incapable of. As such it's her duty to do that in her father's stead.

The many words her father spoke. The content of research her father tackled. Numerous fragmented memos that could not be made into a book themselves. And things that were clear later, the real meat of the matter he wanted to actually write.

Bringing that to this world is exactly the path that won't shame her father as his child.

”It appears you have made your resolve.”

As Norma came back to her sense, her grandfather Prado whose stern face softened up a little spoke.

”Yes. I'm thankful for your guidance.”

”I'm glad that could be of use. From now on, do feel free to consult to this weary old bone whenever something is weighing your mind, Norma-dono.”

”Yes.”

”I see. You are resolute then.”

”Yes. After thinking through the meaning of Rakrus-dono's words, and getting an advice from someone, I am no longer hesitant. This had always been on my mind as well.”

”Umu, umu. I did think I was overstepping my bounds, but it could not be left unsaid either. We can't afford to publish a half-baked book, not this book.”
