Episode 31.19-20
Arios rushed out, Lecan followed.
They're not running at full speed. They wouldn't be able to execute sword skills otherwise.
Lecan had his sword rest on his shoulder.
This stance brings out the maximum amount of power.
The enemy's magic landed on Lecan and Arios, dyeing the world white.
(Hitting us both at the sa ti, pretty good.)
Arios slashed at the neck of one of the magic beasts, which dodged the attack.
The beast didn't overlook the montary opening created by Arios's miss, it let out a barrage of stabbing attack, slicing off Arios's right chest.
Lecan's attack sunk into his target's left shoulder, but the beast managed to twist itself the mont Lecan's attack landed, avoiding lethal damage.
The magic beast swung down its sword, unleashing a blow with a chill-inducing highly destructive force toward Lecan head-on. Lecan narrowly dodged to the left as he bent his left arm in the attack direction in an attempt to soften the blow.
The enemy's slash cut deeply into his left arm and shoulder.
Lecan unleashed Puncture. His sword pierced deep into the enemy's throat. Then he fiercely swung his sword to the left and right. The beast's head flew in the air.
While falling down, Lecan took a Large Red Potion from and drank it down. Then he cast on himself.
"."
Arios had killed his enemy as well despite suffering a grievous wound, he also took a Large Red Potion and drew near Lecan.
"."
Lecan cast on Arios as well.
They fetched the content of two treasure chests and took a step in the stairway before going back outside.
"Arios."
"Yes."
"We're taking a 40 day break from tomorrow."
"I understand."
The day after, Lecan and Arios dropped by a store that specializes in leather armor. Their light armor would be nded in five days. Lecan's overcoat repaired itself over ti. really cos in handy.
"I will be off for a bit during this break. Please don't worry about serving my dinner until the tenth of month four."
Arios went off sowhere after saying that to Lecan and Nark.
Lecan drank at the food court every single day during the first seven days.
Then he spent three more days sleeping.
He went in the dungeon on the 11th day, and did so testing on in a vacant room on floor 90.
Magical is an extrely handy and flexible magic, as expected of magic taught by Shira.
First of all, the barrier is maintained even during high speed movent. Shooting magic outward from within the doesn't make it disappear. The user can control how far apart the is from them, they can even stick to the rock wall with it's still on. The magic remains active.
On the other hand, physical is an awfully difficult magic to handle.
First of all, the barrier disappears if you try to run with it on. If you try swinging sword outward from within the barrier, it will disappear when the sword touches the inner barrier part even though there's no recoil.
Lecan practiced walking slowly while maintaining physical .
It only went well in the beginning, if he made even the slightest movent or lost focus even a bit, the barrier imdiately vanished.
He spent that day and the day after practicing walking with the magic active.
Lecan discovered another fact on the 24th.
He's unable to move if he bumps physical onto the dungeon wall. This was a huge problem. If this trait is persistent in all state, blocking an attack powerful enough to send Lecan flying into the wall with this barrier ans getting sent flying along with the barrier, rendering it aningless.
Lecan went to floor 20s and tried to experint on a magic beast infested room, but he couldn't stand how slow they were, so he left and warped away toward a room on floor 40 instead. But this ti around, he couldn't put up in ti and got hit by a concentrated assault. Of course he swiftly took care all five beasts afterward, but he realized that this couldn't go on and went to a vacant room on floor 99 to practice on .
It would be best if he could enter a room with already active, but now that he found out that's impossible, he practiced kneading mana in the passage and cast as he got inside a room. This proved unexpectedly difficult, it took him four days just to get the casting speed to an acceptable level.
The day after he went to floor 40 once again, into a magic beast room. He succeeded putting up a before he got hit. First test a success.
Then he started slowly walking inside the room.
Three assaulted him.
One of the two shot magic.
The magic got blocked by .
He blocked physical attacks with .
After so more tests, he found out so of the barrier's property.
First of all, you experience no recoil when the barrier took an attack while you're not moving. But so recoils co up when the barrier is attacked while you're moving slowly. However, the barrier returned to its initial state after wavering for a mont, after which it remained static. Apparently that's just how the chanism works.
Floor 40's magic beasts' offensive power isn't enough to verify everything, but it still netted Lecan so good guesses.
Next up, he's gotta find a way to attack while the physical barrier is still active.
It's not easy. But he's progressing slowly but surely.
The booze that night tasted so good.
