Kang Kang!

The sound of dry wood clashing against dry wood echoes through the quiet training grounds.

”Okay. Now you're getting it!　Ten more times.

I can hear Aaron's happy voice, but I'm not going to react, I'm going to deal with Aaron's attack calmly.

Don't let your guard down here. I told myself that, and I tried my best to defend against Aaron's attack.

”Nice work. You managed to outrun my attacks a hundred times without missing a beat.

When I came to, it was over.

When I saw Aaron lower his sword, I belatedly untied my stance.

”No, there were a few close calls along the way.

I really panicked when I missed my timing in the middle of the race.

I don't know how you were able to pull yourself together from there.

I don't think so. ...... I like your ambition.

''No, I just understand that I'm weak . In fact, if you still used non-attribute magic, I'd be out of shape.

I was really surprised when Aaron made a real move on me once.

When I came to, I found myself with a sword to my neck.

That can't be helped. I'm sure that will change once Kite-dono is able to use magic as well. ......

''And it doesn't really work at all. I've learned from some lightning wizards and so on, but it seems like the fundamental use is different, and the only thing it can do is blow off a small amount of static electricity.

So far, it's static magic: .......

Is there something I'm doing wrong?　Or do I have less magic?

I don't think there's anything less since Aaron's trained me on magic power. .......

'I see. ...... We'll just have to try different things.

Yes. Six more six months ...... and I'll make it in time somehow.

But I'm not sure~ .

I don't feel like I'll be able to use magic in another six months?

I'm counting on it. I hope that Lord Kite will strike down his grandson who has grown up to be as arrogant as I am.

Yes. I'll take care of it.

Like the brave men of old, I'll change the heart of the Swordsman's egg.

And somehow we'll get to know each other before the war.

Kite!　Look, look, look!

As I was thinking about what to do after I won, Hélène came in with an old book.

'Oh, you're still training?'

No, I just finished.

”Yeah. That's good. Kite!　Can you read this?

For some reason, Hélène was in a good mood and held out a book to me.

”For the future you: ...... Yuusuke Kirishima.

When I read the cover of the book I received, it said so .

”I'm glad~. This is a book written by Yusuke Kirishima, the Second Hero who could use magic just like you.

That was a long time ago. How did you find me?

I'm the eighteenth generation, so that's sixteen generations ago, right?

Hmm. I looked all over the country and I found this in the oldest church in the kingdom. But I still can't figure out what it says. So maybe Kite can read it?　I thought.

Yeah, I do remember this character set in Japanese.

You're right. I'm the only one in the world who can read them, because they're my hometown script.

Hmm. These are otherworldly characters. They're so complex, they look like symbols.

That's what I see in these letters.

I still can't understand the words on the magic circle or anything else.

''Is that what it's all about?　Well, okay. Read it quickly and tell me what it says.

Okay.

Elaine rushed me to open the book and read the first page .

Before reading this: ......

This book is good for people you trust enough to read it, but I wouldn't recommend reading it with anyone else. I recommend reading this book alone if possible.

This book shows the strengths of a brave man as well as his weaknesses. So keep that in mind and think about whether you can trust it.

And this information is from my time. I don't know how old it is, but you have to remember it's old news.

So go ahead and start reading.

'Well, ...... this book has the strengths as well as the weaknesses of a brave man, so it says not to read it unless you can trust it.'

'So ....... Read in your room?

No, it's fine. I can trust both Elaine and Aaron, you know.

In fact, there are only two people in the world that I trust, Elaine and Aaron, so please stay with me.

Who do I ask questions to when I don't understand something?

'I understand Princess-sama, but ...... is it okay for me to be with you?'

”Yes, sir. I owe Aaron a great debt of gratitude for the past six months. Come on, let's work together to uncover the secrets of the brave men.

For the past six months, I'm still only able to avoid attacks, but thanks to Aaron-san, I'm able to hold a decent sword.

''At the same time, I think that would be a weakness of Lord Kite's, wouldn't it?

'What now, isn't my weakness in this world, or rather, the one person in this world who knows best how to fight, Mr. Aaron?

”Ha ha ha. That's for sure. Oh, excuse me. Well, you've lived long enough. I'll learn about the mystery of bravery.

Aaron laughed happily at my words.

After all, Aaron-san wants to know about the brave man, don't you?

''But the fact that I searched for half a year and couldn't find it means that the brave man hadn't read this book for many generations now.

Yes. How did you find me, Your Highness?

Hmm. I've got good people working for me.

Yeah. I'm really sorry, the knights who work for Hélène.

Now, rest easy.

Okay, I'll read it.

And then I began to read aloud.

First, I'll tell you my story.
