Lecan is currently standing on top of a s on the side of a s very close to them, he won't be discovered at this distance
The eye that apparently can see antic beast probably has no real need to detect faraway foes
Looks like it's sleeping Here's his chance
Lecan groped his chest and grabbed a jewel It's the blue jewel he got froht carry some sort of effect No clue what kind, but today it would serve as a good luck charm The chain part is too delicately ic jewel inside his shi+rt, erased his footsteps, and carefully yet quietly approached the ht next to it, and the monster still has its eyes closed
--Allow me to claih and locked his gaze at the scruff of the monster's neck
There are several wound marks on it They're from Lecan's attacks Every one of the down his sword The feedback betrayed his expectations
--What?
His sword sank deep into the beast's neck
After a , and let out a skull shaking roar Its forehead eye is firot to be ready to dodge the frost breath if it's cohtly coly turn around with its short legs
Lecan swiftly juht
Theto launch its spines since its opponent is close by But it has exhausted its front spines in the battles yesterday and three , but those likely cannot be launched off before they get big enough
The h to turn the side with spines toward Lecan, and then it shook its huge body
While staring fixedly at it, Lecan took another 10 steps back
The spines were launched off
These spines could only fly straight from their initial location The farther Lecan is fro these inco spines is child's play for those with superior reflexes like Lecan
Afterward, Lecan waited for his chance to strike at the sae the spines if he's too close, yet the monster will shi+ft to other attacks if he's too far away
The monster finally ran out of spines to launch off after the fourth volley Some of its spines still remain on top of its back, but that's probably unusable for enemy that walk on land
Instead, the beast points its head straight at Lecan and exhales Lecan took another 20 steps back
He couldn't dodge the breath fully, it hit the outer layer of his overcoat He's fine Just as he thought, Overking Bear's fur could safely block the frost breath at this range
Now that he knows, he just needs to keep dodging the breath while htly forward, Lecan steps slightly backward
When the monster lets out its frost breath, Lecan moves out of a direct hit
These pushes and pulls lasted about 12 breaths before the monster finally stopped with the breath attack and curled up its body
Lecan turned his back and ran just as thethethat obstructs his dash here The ust> up
After leading the , curled out and plopped down on the ground
Itit
Lecan carefully approached the monster's head
And when he was 20 steps away, he rushed in with <gust>, landed a hit on the ain to back away 20 steps
The round again
Looks like it's lost its offensive capability due to exhaustion It must have used up all its ain Just what's going on
He rushed toward the ain, and struck its scruff
Surprisingly, that strike sank deep into the monster's neck
The ly, the blue dot disappeared in his <life detection=””> It's dead
But, why
Why was his attack more effective only today
Is it due to a circued on Lecan's end
What has changed on Lecan's side anyway
Suddenly, it hit on hiot from Lady Rubianafale
This jewel must possess the power to increase attack power
So he thought for an instant, but he laughed off the idea
Even in his foreon's floor bosses sometimes drop abilities that increase attack power
He himself has met adventurers who posses those abilities, <slash>,
, <slash> possessor Once he chanted the activation spell, swings froed to cut a breastplate on's pelt and even split Lecan's trusty sword at the time in two
However, those are ultimately abilities bestowed only to adventurers who braved the depths of a dungeon and defeated the boss there, a technique that can only be obtained during an extre that can be passed over to someone else
It's also possible for jewels to have <state preservation=””> or
However, he's never heard an accessory that gives the effect of increased attack
If soendary class artifact
Lecan tried to do a little experiic beast's neck and legs, with the blue jewel equipped and with it stored inside <storage>
The result made it obvious
This blue jewel has been enchanted with an effect that grants an enormous increase to attack power No etting ahold of this jewel makes his trip to another world already worth it
Still, did Lady Rubianafale know about this enchant
She couldn't have been If she did, she would have handed this jewel to either her father or her brother
But, if by chance she did knoould she give it to Lecan
Even after conte for a while, he couldn't co dark, he stopped thinking about it, and took thethe jewel's enchant at will It's a shockingly powerful e body crumbled into sands in front of Lecan
He went back to his hut like flying and plopped down in his bed
Next ulped down preserved food and water froe> and ian experi weapons
Throeapons
Bare handed attack
Attacking with a stick
And the result, he confirrants increased attack power It's neither a sharpness enchante increase
However, the effect did notweapons or bare fists, only when Lecan equipped armor on his fist did it show up
In other words, this blue jewel increases attack power only when you're attacking eapons equipped, it gives no effect without equipping one
He took out a wand that shot out <red fireball=””> and experiic attack
Which means the effect is only true for physical attacks
The next day and the day after, Lecan kept going into the forest and inspected the blue jewel's effects
He discovered that the effect won't activate if he doesn't launch an attack with a certain amount of force behind it
In other words, the effect won't becloth with a needle
On the other hand, swinging a sier the effect
Rather thana weapon's attack power, it's probablythe total offensive force of someone who brandishes a weapon
As for the activation require else other than holding it
In order to check that, Lecan needs to ask someone else to experiment for him, and he has no intention to do that
Lecan hypothesizes that perhaps only those whose offensive ability exceeds a certain threshold could activate it, but since he hih for now
He was going to replace the chain, but he called off the plan
If by any chance, doing so ruined the jewel's effect, he wouldn't be able to live it
Instead, he added a pocket inside his shi+rt
So that the jeon't fall off even if the chain breaks
Though, he plans to put the jeay in norot two reasons
First, in order to develop his skills while he's in a state without the enchant
Second, there ht be people who possess
Up until now, he had neither the leeway nor necessity to be on guard against such, however, once he leaves Zaidree of precautions for such
He cannot let anyone find out about this jewel's secret
