Episode 38.5-6 (1/2)
Someone asked to see <Comet Cutter>, thus Lecan generated the magic blade in front of everyone. They got really excited.
All of them were thrilled when they found out <Skeleton Ogre Zoltan> had reached floor 121. They started boasting about Zoltan as if he was their father.
”No no no. Ain't no telling if he stopped at floor 121. We're talking 'bout Zoltan here. Man might even got to floor 150. Don't you think so, Lecan-san?”
”Right, yeah. I've no idea how far Zoltan got either.”
”See, Zoltan is great. Ain't it, y'all! Tell me so!”
'He is, he is', they shouted.
”Cheers for the great adventurer <Skeleton Ogre Zoltan>!”
They never got tired cheering for Zoltan.
They would go on to narrate heroic tales of Zoltan Lecan was unaware of.
(Zoltan.)
(So many people looked up to you.)
None blamed Lecan for killing Zoltan. Lecan believed that it was because there's no point to it.
All of a sudden Nark stood up and shouted.
”Guys, listen! This Lecan here hails from the same land as Zoltan!”
”What? Is that true?”
”Of course it is. Ain't it, Lecan?”
”Yea.”
”Where'd Zoltan come from anyway?”
”Both me and Zoltan are <Descenders>. We descended from the same world.”
”I knew it.”
”Is that world full of adventurers like you and Zoltan?”
”No. Zoltan is a special case.”
”Damn, that's awesome! Zoltan really is someone special!”
”Oy, hold it! Zoltan's been in this town since my father's days. He sometimes went off somewhere though. How long ago has he been in this world?”
”He told me he got here more than 50 years ago.”
”More than 50 years ago?”
”He'd been away from his homeland for so long.”
”And then, he encountered an adventurer from that same world after 50 long years.”
”Damn.”
”He must be ecstatic. He must be nostalgic.”
”Lecan, Lecan. Did Zoltan enjoy the fight with you?”
”Yea. Said that was most fun he had in a fight.”
”Guys! Cheers for Zoltan's final fight!”
Lecan kept drinking his booze without feeling tired about it mysteriously enough.
Arios quietly listened to everyone else.
Nark, Nell and even dining customers easily accepted how Lecan fought Zoltan and how he cut down knight Torog. Which surprised Lecan, but thinking again these people live in a dungeon city. Their sense of things differ from Vouka's populace.
The feast continued on tirelessly.

The morning after, Lecan took his time getting up.
