Episode 5.6
Lecan was satisfied.
It was truly a worthwhile give and take.
Lecan got exactly the info he wanted from the boy. And the boy obtained a red potion he really needed at that mont.
You could say that it was an awfully convenient encounter for both of them.
Still, what a long stairway. It's not just long. The width is quite sothing as well. You could probably line up 20 people neatly here.
In such a huge stairway, you could see people here and there. The number is smaller than the number of people going from the surface to the first floor, and vice versa, but it's still a lot.
As such, Lecan is unable to go fast. Even though he himself is eager to get down asap.
Lecan was shocked when he arrived at the Third Floor.
--There's more than 20 people who posses mana here.
The girl that was given potion earlier was also a mana possessor, but including her, he only saw three mana possessors on the First and Second Floors.
He didn't carefully search in every nook and corner, so he might have missed so, but the number shouldn't differ too much.
And yet, he detected more than 20 mana possessors all within the range of his first detection here on this floor. There must be so kind of reason for this.
Incidentally, is telling Lecan that there's a magic beast in front of him. Yet only rugged rocks are reflected in his bare eye.
Lecan kicked away that rock.
The sensation felt was not that of a rock getting kicked.
The rock crumbled flabbily as it turned green and flowed down.
--Hou. An amorphous magic beast huh. And it's even capable of mimicry.
He drew his sword and hacked off at this bizarre enemy.
He did, but the wound instantly closed.
The flabby magic beast swelled out and attacked Lecan.
This ti he cut the enemy horizontally in half and jumped backward.
However, the two split parts imdiately stuck together into one again.
"Fumu."
Lecan greatly jumped back.
And then the magic beast flopped around for a while before disguising itself into a rock once again.
Lecan made the plan to see how other adventurers deal with this thing.
Just right as there are two adventurers fighting nearby. One of them possesses mana.
He progressed through the winding path and stopped at a spot where he could barely see them.
The two adventurers were both won.
One of them is an archer. However, she fought not with her bows and arrows, instead she threw a rock at the flabby magic beast, dodged its charge, and then threw another rock at it.
The other woman is a mana possessor. She's pointing a short sword in her right hand at the magic beast from afar while chanting so kind of spell.
"...'s Power, descend upon us, manifest into the fla of rage, destroy our enemy. "
A fireball got produced and flew toward the magic beast. Upon its impact, it flared up like an explosion, burning the magic beast.
The archer woman waited for the fire to die down and then take the magic gem out. It doesn't seem to have cooled down enough, but the glove worn on her left hand is probably heat-resistant.
"Hoi yo. The fourth one. How's your mana doing?"
"I'm feeling pretty good today. I think I can still shoot two more."
"Alright. Let's take a rest after the next one."
"Un."
