Episode 19.1-2 (1/2)
After arriving at Vouka town, Lecan went straight to Shira to report to her.
Along with Eda and Arios.
Why is Arios tagging along?
”The master who taught Lecan-dono magic? Please, I'd love to meet her by all means.”
Arios plans to stay in Vouka town for a while longer in order to put the things he learned in the dungeon into practice.
Arios wasn't born in this town. He wouldn't tell where he was from, but he said he was born in a distant town, and is currently in a journey to expand his views.
He wasn't actually hired as a bodyguard at Goncourt House.
He was referred there by a noble from another town, in other word, he was a house guest.
Therefore, he actually has no more reason to stay in this town, but he insists on accompanying Lecan for a bit more in order to steal his techniques.
”Do as you like.”
That was Lecan's answer.

”Shira-baachan! We're back!”
”Nice to have you back. Lecan too.”
”Yea.”
”Please pardon my intrusion. My name is Arios.”
”Welcome. I'm Shira. It's so rare to see Lecan bringing someone else here.”
”We've brought some tea and snacks for you.”
”Oh dear, thank you. This is quite a nice tea brand. Must have been expensive.”
”Ehehe. I was in charge of picking them up. And for Jericho, here! Assortment of fruit. I've got a lot with me.”
”Uhohohoho!”
”This time I have a souvenir for Shira as well.”
”Well now, how unusual. Just what is... Hee. This is one's splendid magic stone.”
”It's Dungeon Ninae Boss's.”
”I knew it, you got to the last floor. I figured that'd be the case seeing the huge boost in you two's life forces. Thanks for the souvenir. Well, anyway, have a seat everyone. I'll go get you tea.”
”Uho?”
”Got nothing for you.”
”....”
”Don't be down. My bad. I'm gonna get you something next time.”
”Uhou.”
Lecan, Eda, and Arios took a seat and made themselves at home while Shira was making tea.
Fatigue had piled up in their bodies, thus even sitting was quite relaxing.
(So Shira is able to see people's life forces.)
Lecan's <Life Detection> can discern strength of humans and magic beasts to a degree. However, it cannot detect life forces.
