Episode 47.3 (1/2)

”You bastard. Where'd you pop off from.”

All the three bandits are on horseback.

”We'll overlook it this time, piss off.”

”We're busy here, ya hear us.”

The third man said that while putting his hand in his hidden pocket chest.

The man grabbed a knife in the pocket. Must be planning to hurl it at Lecan once he turned around.

Lecan briskly approached the men.

One of the man abruptly galloped his horse toward Lecan.

He's raising his sword up high while looking at Lecan with bloodshot eyes.

Lecan may be tall, but a horse-riding man is taller still.

And the bandit must hold absolute confidence in his superiority afforded by his horse's mobility.

Lecan unsheathed <Sword of Rusk>.

”HAAAAAAA.”

The bandit yelled out loud as he swung his sword at Lecan before he got his right sword arm cut off by Lecan.

(Hmm?)

(Quite a decent slash from a bandit.)

(The sword's pretty well made as well.)

(And their horses are good horses.)

(Are they ex adventurers?)

As the horse ran past him, Lecan's hair and overcoat fluttered in the wind.

Then the bandit fell off his horse behind Lecan.

”W-why you!”

The second bandit got enraged instead of faltering even after witnessing that scene, he went swinging his weapon around at Lecan on horseback.

This man's got an axe as his weapon. He's got a large build that goes for his horse as well.

The horse charged while making crushing-like sounds along its path. Weak willed adventurers would have lost their nerve from seeing that alone.

Lecan watched over the incoming horse with both his arms loose.

Then just as the bandit was about to swing his axe down, Lecan swung <Sword of Rusk> at terrifying speed.

The axe's handle got cut in two and the blade part fell down near Lecan.

The bandit ran his horse past Lecan and let it run for a while before slowing down and making a u-turn. His right hand is holding the grip of a sheathed sword on his waist.

Just as the bandit had his sword half drawn, the bladed part of the fallen axe Lecan had thrown hit his chest, blowing the man off his horse.

As Lecan turned around, the last bandit had already made his escape at full speed. He slowed down his horse when he got 80 steps away from the group, turned around and looked at Lecan loathsomely. He must believe he's safe there.

”<Flame Spear (Bandroux)>!”

Lecan's magic blew off the bandit's head.

He lowered his left hand.

(Shooting a <Flame Spear> with my left hand.)

(Has gotten quite precise and faster.)
