Chapter 102.4 – Behind the Noble Lady’s Shadow, There’s Trouble (2)

I heard such stories from the young ladies around me as I descended the moving stairs.

The origin of Night Fog Yomanes-sama who played Lenitz……if you find out, please tell me.

……Hah!

Come to think of it, I know the owner of this theater so I can ask him directly.

Let’s send him a letter as soon as we get back.

I have many questions I would like to ask him.

I want to know the identity of Yomanes-sama, who came up and formed this troupe and the secret of that stage set.

However, I never thought I’d be asking the theater maniac Schenker questions about plays……you never really know where life would take you.

「Oya, there’s a crowd near the exit.」

「What is that? The congestion before was because of these stairs.」

「I can hear that they were really having a good time.」

As the stairs slowly descended I thought I caught a glimpse of the face of Lenitz……Yomanes-sama, the star of today’s play.

Maa!

What is that?

「We are selling actresses’ print collections! There will be one handshake ticket per collection!」

Ah, they are selling goods.

I could understand the print collection but……what is a handshake ticket?

However, I’d love to see those actresses’ faces up close.

「Father……I」

「Ah, no problem. I’ll be in the carriage ahead of you.」

「Thank you very much.」

「I have to go pick up my paintings and merchandise too.」

Father left us in a hurry to the reception desk and my husband and I got in line for the print collection.

There are three more lines next to the sales counter and it seems that the three main characters of the play are waiting at the end of them.

I see. This is why those three were the first to come out to greet us and leave the stage immediately after.

「There seems to be a variety of print collections.」

「Ara, there are three types」

According to the information posted above the sales counter, Lenitz(the main character), Reid(the swordsman) and Piron(the archer) have their own print collection.

I see. So, if you want to collect the adventurer party “Rainbow Tail”, you have to buy all three books and if you buy all three, you can shake the hands of the three of them……

Schenker hasn’t changed at all since we were students. He’s really a man who likes to collect these little coins.

For now, let’s buy all three kinds.

「All three please」

「Yes, forty-five dirs..」

「Ara, very affordable. Five copper coins.」

「Here’s your half copper coin change. If you wish to participate in the handshake event, please take this ticket and get in line over there.」

I haven’t seen a half copper coin in a long time.

With the half copper coin tucked away in my wallet, we got in line for the shortest line, archer Piron.

I asked my husband to wait for me near the exit with my print collections.

I’m sorry for making you my baggage carrier.

Glancing at my husband, I saw that he became part of a group of men who were all carrying luggage.

「This handshake event, what exactly is it?」

「Well, you know, handshake」

「Why handshake?」

「Why……I wonder」

It seems like everyone in line is wondering about that too.

To be honest, I don’t really understand the point of shaking hands with actresses either.

「The play was wonderful」

「Thank you, nice young lady」

Before I had time to think about the meaning, the handshake of the person in front of me was over.

It looks like the handshake event doesn’t take much time.

「You have a lovely voice desu wa」

「Your voice is very lovely too desu yo」

Maa, lovely!

I know it is said by a woman but it makes me happy.

By the way, she looked like an old man from a distance but looking at her close enough to touch her, I found that her face was unexpectedly young.

The make-up for stage play is quite amazing, isn’t it?
