Episode 1.15-16
"Oy."
Morda the cook handed out a cloth sack.
It's filled with Griphil Leaves.
"Narou (Thanks)."
Lecan took a leaf as he thanked. He put it in his mouth and chewed on it. Bitter taste spread inside his mouth. Apparently it hadn't been fully dried out yet, a sharp jolt assaulted him. But he preferred it right now.
Despondent, you could say that's Lecan's state right now.
He lacks drive to do anything.
Though that doesn't apply to Lecan alone. The day after the young lady left, sword training stopped altogether. The servants turned untalkative.
Lecan has been sitting on this rock behind a tree so many tis all day, gazing at neatly growing vegetation. Morda has taken a rock next to it.
The two sit together without saying a word, just chewing for a while.
Lecan felt a sense of loneliness.
Is that from his jewel going far away, or Lady Rubianafale going far away, he himself is not quite sure.
As he chewed on the luxury goods that would have fetched a nice price were sold, Lecan pondered about the great beast.
Lecan has an awful affinity with that monster. To begin with, it's a monster he should not challenge alone, and even discounting all that, it'd be hard a fight regardless.
Lecan specializes in fighting a great number of enemy at the sa ti in a cramped place. His full potential is unleashed when he fights against magic beasts in a dungeon, or when he's surrounded by enemy all around on a battlefield.
That monster's forehead eye can probably see mana. That's why it was able to detect Lecan through obstacles.
Since range is limited to 50 steps, he's in a serious disadvantage against that monster. His foe has at least two ans to attack from more than 50 steps away. On top of that, it can roll around. Speed, range and area of attacks, it's got everything he's unable to deal with.
The monster's skin seems to be quite hard too. It's unclear whether Lecan's attacks could get through it.
He might be able to overco it if he used , but that's sothing he's saving for a really critical situation, he has no way to replenish it once used.
Lecan wishes Boudo was here.
Boudo's blunt weapon and ability are effective against foes with hard outer shell. Lecan draws the enemy's attention, Boudo whittles it down. There's nothing to be afraid of against this monster if he could do that.
However, Boudo isn't here. There's no one else he could work together with.
He's got to do sothing about the monster by himself.
For now, he'll try to challenge it once again. To ascertain the enemy's ability. Everything begins after that.
Lecan spat out the leaf that had lost its flavor and stood up.
