Episode 46.3 (1/2)
On the second day, they got through nine floors before lunch, and 16 floors after. In other word, they arrived at floor 60.
It's a truly unprecedented pace.
However, to Lecan, this pace is nothing unusual for this dungeon.
Here, the distances between entrance and exit are extremely short, with few battles in between.
In case of Dungeon Tsubolt, on top of the floors being extremely vast, the stairways that connect between floors are awfully long as well. Due to time needed to traverse through those floors, he couldn't cover that many floors each day. Even in Dungeon Ninae, despite Lecan having the means to search his surroundings, they still had to make stops on multiple floors and fight.
But in Dungeon Palcimo's case, you warp into a floor, get into shafts, then leave shafts. The total walking distance does not even exceed 200 steps. Of course, the battle would take longer the tougher the enemy get, but Lecan could defeat all enemies up to this floor while running past them. In addition, you only need to fight once per floor and you don't need to walk between floors. It's pretty much impossible for it to take any time at all.
By the way, the reason why they didn't conquer as many floors in the morning was because Ui wanted to eat the dragon's meat as soon as possible.
Ui has been completely captivated by the charm of campfires. To the point that she seemingly won't accept dungeon diving without campfires.
”Ah, that was so good. Dragon's meat is really good. Tastes sublime, settles down nicely in your stomach, and it even raises your mana and stamina, what can't it do?”
Lecan reacted to Ui's remark.
”Obaba. Is it true that your mana and stamina increase if you eat dragon's meat?”
”I have never tested the veracity of that claim myself. Though it is for certain that eating dragon's meat promotes good health and makes it easier for you to perform on all kinds of things better. And it does have the effect to make you feel that claim is true.”
”Indeed it is.”
”In this town, we believe that there are several food that can help raise your mana if you eat them during your growth period as a child, see. Dragon's meat is among the best of such food. Oh, right, will Eda-chan cast
on us tonight as well?”
”Yea. Eda. Please. Ah.”
”What's wrong?”
”Have you been getting
by this town's user all this time?”
”Of course I have.”
”Do you feel like your body's getting stiffer and difficult to move?”
”Ho! Lecan-chan, you sure know your stuff around
. You're talking about that, right. Receiving
from the same user for years may put a damp on your bodily functions.”
”You knew huh.”
”Where do you think we are? Magic City Palcimo. That phenomenon has already been known. And of course, there have been researches done on countermeasures as well. You need to regularly swap the user of
.”
”That's some incredible feat. It's fine if you know.”
”You're worried about me, aren't you. Thank you. By the way, Lecan-chan.”
”Hm?”
