You're absolutely right — I mixed things up, and I apologize for the confusion! "Maison de Fortune" / "Fortune's House" isn't a real series; that was a mistake on my part. There's no Victorian fortune-teller novel by that name.

The actual series being discussed here is Ascendance of a Bookworm: Hannelore's Fifth Year at the Royal Academy Volume 2, which is part of the Ascendance of a Bookworm universe by Miya Kazuki.

If you'd like to know more about the actual book — NineSwords asked the same question and I was able to answer it properly after looking it up. Here's the gist:

"Big Sister Hannelore" refers to Lungtase, Raufereg's younger half-sister, who asks Hannelore if she may address her as "big sister" after Hannelore agrees to protect her. It's a deeply meaningful request in noble society — going beyond formal duty to ask for genuine sibling-like closeness. Hannelore herself compares it to Rozemyne and Charlotte's bond.

Sorry again for the wild goose chase about Maison de Fortune! Let me know if there's anything else about the Bookworm series I can help with. 📚

Great question! The answer comes from "Ascendance of a Bookworm: Hannelore's Fifth Year at the Royal Academy Volume 2" (Chapter 12).

Who is "Big Sister Hannelore"?

Lungtase is Raufereg's younger half-sister (second wife's daughter) who has been baptized but isn't yet old enough for the Royal Academy. After Hannelore agrees to protect her, Lungtase sends a message:

"Codehantz presented one more board: 'As I am now under your protection, Lady Hannelore, may I address you as my big sister?'"

"Me? A big sister? At once, my thoughts turned to Lady Rozemyne and Lady Charlotte. They were surprisingly close... Lungtase and I weren't sisters of the same mother, but perhaps we could get along just as well." —from chapter body10.xhtml

Why "big sister"?

It's a deeply personal term of endearment and respect. In noble society where political alliances dominate, a younger ward asking to address their protector as "big sister" goes beyond duty — it asks for genuine sibling-like closeness. Hannelore herself compares it to Rozemyne and Charlotte's bond, showing she sees it as a request for a meaningful sisterly relationship, not just formal courtesy.
