”Un.”
Eda shot Bow of Yelvitz again. No issue.
Lecan took the <Gauntlet of Thunder Dragon> and put it on his left arm.
(Alright.)
(The mana flows just fine.)
Lecan crouched down and punched the grassy ground.
Causing a flash of light and an explosion with sparks flying everywhere, sending grass and soil into the air.
”Pe, pe. Lecan, what's the big idea doing that without warning?”
”My bad.”

”My head's full of grass.”
Lecan crouched down and picked up grass leaves off Eda's head.
”Now then, next up. <Zoruas Kurt Venda>.”
Lecan teleported 30 steps ahead instantly.
Genesiac Grace Gear are usable too.
Lastly, Lecan took <Comet Cutter> out and generated its magic blade.
He mowed down a clump of bushes.
It's working without any issue.
He erased the magic blade.
”That should be everything we gotta check for now.”
(Gotta be prudent to start off.)
Mountain Area and Valley Area are the two routes he was warned not to take at all cost.
Mountain area has Soaring Dragons. They can fly very fast and sense humans from very far away, thus combats are unavoidable. You simply cannot advance in a small group.
Valley area has Raptors. They fly around without forming a swarm yet can attract more Raptors relatively quickly when engaged, they're nothing but trouble. A small group cannot go through this area.
Desert should be avoided too. It's hard to walk on and saps your stamina, taking you a long time to pass through. On top of that the spawned magic beasts are extremely tough to deal with.
The Lake and Marsh area is perilous as well, the Knights can't march well there, but Lecan should manage somehow.
Lecan took the map and glared at it.
According to Nodlein, it takes Dungeon Knights two days from departing Yufonia to reaching Dungeon entrance. Despite Lecan's swiftness, Nodlein estimated that it would take Lecan two days as well to arrive at the dungeon entrance.
Then five days from the first Meadow to the right foot of Mountain. That is if there was no issue along the way.
Afterward, Nodlein estimated it would take Lecan eight days to traverse through Lake and Marsh area, arriving at the Rocky Mountain and going right around the mountain foot to arrive at the second Meadow.
Then from the second Meadow to second Rocky Mountain, and circling around the mountain foot again would take seven days.
Crossing the whole Meadow until entering the part of Meadow that intersects the Desert area would take six days.
Or so Nodlein forecast. Lecan then must search for Dungeon Knights once he arrived at the last Meadow area. Even if he managed to find them in six days, it would have taken them 34 days by that point.
Afterward, it would take two days to enter the temple, and three days to defeat the Temple Guardians, the Three Giants, conquering it. Then, from the dungeon entrance to Yufonia would take the knights two days to travel. 41 days in total.
Today is the eighth of month two. Nodlein predicted that their besieging party would likely take a drastic measure if it got to the middle of month three. There's 52 days left until the 20th of month three.
The sooner they could get Dungeon Knights back, the less risk lady Rubianafale would face.
Lecan greatly breathed in to fill his lungs. The air is fresh.
There's some breezes here even though they're inside a dungeon.
”Now then, let's go.”
”Un!”
Lecan and Eda broke into run.
There's a sprawling dungeon without end before his eye.
Eda next to him.
He's got a home he could return to at the end of this adventure.
'I'm glad I came to this world', thought Lecan from the bottom of his heart.
