Episode 7.3
"Sorry! Forgive ! Truly I am."
Lecan was brought to the Guard Station, in the sa room as last ti.
Doug bowed his head after he took a seat.
"I don't recall doing anything that warrants your apologies."
"No, well! You were treated like a suspicious individual back then. A guy with not enough prudence decided on that. And that guy was . My bad!"
"Fumu. I don't really get it, explain how you ca to that conclusion."
"It started with old man Braba. He's a mage who was relatively famous in the past, and lately he's been going in the dungeon to earn pocket money for his grandchildren. That old man Braba caught sight of you. On the stairway down on the third floor. Heard you were paying respect to the magic beasts you defeated and the dungeon itself. Old man Braba had a serious look during his testimony. That person was not the usual run-off-the-mill, he said."
That reminds Lecan, he did feel like he saw an old man when he was heading down on the third floor.
"And also, a particular rumor was spread a while after you went in the dungeon. That there were tons of dead magic beasts with their magic gems intact laying around on shallow floors. And that turned out to be true. Thanks to that, huge crowds were ford on shallow floors for several days."
Last ti, Lecan was eager to get down to deeper floors. He had no interest in magic gems on those shallow floors, while taking them out was too much trouble, hence he went on without bothering with the dead bodies.
"I also heard from John and Solis. Ah, guess you're not familiar with their nas. It's the young swordsman and female mage pair. John's father was soone who earned distinguished services in the war, owed the guy so debts myself. John told . The two of them would have died were the Black Clothed Overlord didn't co to their rescue. Moreover, you even shared a red potion to cure the wound on Solis's face, didn't you. And that's not all. You even taught John the way of dungeons. He was truly grateful for that."
"I never teach anything. You got the wrong person."
"Wrong person? Hahahaha. Bet I am. If there's another person like you around that is. Hahahahahaha."
Captain Doug seed to find it funny sohow as he laughed out loud, he bent forward over the table and beat Lecan's shoulder repeteadly.
"John was deeply remorseful. You've got to bring potions into dungeon with you no matter how pricey they are. Both of them almost paid it with their lives just cause they didn't pay heed to sothing so obvious, and even if they had survived, Solis would have shouldered a scar her entire life. Of course it would be no problem if they didn't encounter a large individual by chance. But a dungeon is a place where anything can happen anyti. You profoundly taught him that, the boy told ."
There's no doubt that they've got it mistaken at so point. But trying to clear the misunderstanding would take ti. Lecan couldn't wait to go in the dungeon any longer.
"Good for him. I'll be on my way now."
"Ah, hold on a bit. The town lord's been inford of your arrival here. Soone from the knights should be here any ti."
"I've got no business with the lord's knights."
"Don't say that. Those big shots have heard about how you sold lotsa stuff from the mid and deep parts of the dungeon here. They want to express their thank in person."
"Don't need it."
Lecan stood up as he said that, but then he recalled sothing that bothered him.
"Doug."
