Here is the second chapter I promised. It’s pretty short. Enjoy.
The Preceding Hero and the Minstrel
Jean Jack Eustace.
I’m sure that you’ve sohow realized already, but he’s one of the comrades that I travelled together with in my journey three years ago.
He was a noble of a certain country, but, for the sake of his dream, or rather creed, he beca an eccentric noble that cast aside his inheritance but……
「I didn’t that we’d et again in a place like this.」
「Fufu, I could say the sa thing. Well, I did hear rumors that you had co back.」
Jean sat in one of the table’s seats that surrounded us.
「Umm……Are you an acquaintance of Yashiro-san’s?」
Seeing my and Jean’s situation, Bernadette asked that while putting up a small hand.
「Yes, lovely young lady. He and I are old friends. We have t again for the first ti in several years.」
「You do have a good friend after all, Yashiro-san!」
「So you’re recognizing him as a good person just because he praised you a little.」
You’re a bit too simple, aren’t you.
「Allow to say it formally. ……My na is Jean Jack Eustace. For my occupation, I suppose you could say it is a minstrel?」
When he nad himself as such, Jean rung his guitar with a *bororon*.
「Jean Jack Eustace? ……You couldn’t be, are you the author of that 『Hero Biography Series』, Jean Jack Eustace-san?」
Hearing Jean’s na, Bernadette vigorously stood up and asked in return.
And then, in those words of Bernadette’s, there were so words that I couldn’t ignore no matter what.
「『Hero Biography Series』……Oi, you didn’t, did you.」
「Hahaha, be at ease. Your na doesn’t co up in it.」
This goes for my na and so on, but I’d seriously like to be pardoned from having my black history from being published.
「To think that I’d be able to et with that Jean Jack Eustace-san! P, please let have your autograph.」
「I don’t mind.」
Jean pulled a feather pen with ink on it out of nowhere.
Nn? The feather attached to the hat is gone?
「I, I’ll treasure it!」
「Thank you. I’m sure that book also finds it pleasant to be embraced by such a beautiful woman such as yourself.」
Jean wrote his signature with a practiced hand on the front cover of the book Bernadette took out. Ah, the feather returned to the hat. When did that happen.
……Uumu, still, I don’t like it for so reason.
When I see Bernadette being delighted from getting an autograph, there’s so kind of surge of anger in my chest.
「So? You’re going to tell us the way we can et with Vodan-shi, right?」
「Yes, of course.」
Sohow getting irritated even though I had a surge of anger, I asked that in order to change the subject.
Nodding to my words, Jean extended his hand to a concealed pocket in his mantle, took out a single sheet of rolled up paper, and spread that paper out on top of the table.
「Nn? ……『Galarie Magic Clad Martial Arts Demonstration, Be Io Preliminary Tournant』?」
What was written there was the preliminary tournant of the 『Galarie Magic Clad Martial Arts Demonstration』 that I was looking forward to watching.
「This Be Io is one of the seven preliminary exhibition sectors.」
Saying that, Jean looked at and had a complacent smile.
……This guy, he’s planning on making material for his stories, isn’t he!?
With Kuushe, who left her seat thinking this was foolish, and Bernadette, who was in ecstasy with the book in her arms, in a different place, I felt shivers from the self-proclaid minstrel.
