Already a bit hungry, Lancer, after confirming the food was fine, unceremoniously hugged it and started eating.
Seeing Lancer expression, he also chuckled, then took out another 'leg' and started roasting it. At this moment, seeing Lancer eat, he also felt a bit hungry.
It was obvious that he was a bit casual when he cooked for himself, and some parts were even a little burnt, but he himself didn't seem to care much. After taking a few bites, he chewed and complained at the same time.
"What a pity~ I wish I had a bottle of wine right now~"
"Wine? I have some here, do you want some?"
Lancer could clearly see the look of ecstasy on Cu Chulainn's face when he said this, but in the end, he chose to refuse with a 'painful' expression.
"Forget it... It would be fine normally, but there's still the teacher's 'demonstration fight' later."
The other person's expression of wanting to drink but not being able to even made Lancer feel a sense of guilt.
But at this moment, the other person patted him on the shoulder.
"This time it's entirely my own fault, you can't be blamed, so what are you conflicted about? Besides, I'm not saying I won't drink~ Since I know you have wine, even if you don't let me drink, I'll steal it someday~"
After saying that, he also winked playfully at Lancer, an expression that made Lancer can't help but show a trace of a smile.
Seeing Lancer smile, he also started laughing, but at the same time, a trace of relief was revealed in his eyes.
It might sound strange, but he had already read something from Lancer spear during their match just now, such as his 'confusion' and 'conflict'.
Although he didn't know what the other person was confused and conflicted about, he knew that the only thing he could do was to try to enlighten the other person, and that was all.
Who said that Cu Chulainn was just a brute? It was just that his meticulousness was not noticed by many people.
In Cu Chulainn's opinion, Lancer would be his 'Junior Brother' from now on, but this couldn't change the fact that they had only just met. So he used his own methods to make Lancer 'happy', and there was no doubt that the effect seemed to be quite good.
Perhaps it was Cu Chulainn's jumpy personality that made Lancer feel much better, or perhaps he didn't want his own issues to affect Cu Chulainn's mood, so he also found a topic to chat with the other person.
"By the way, Cu Chu..."
Suddenly, Lancer found that he didn't know how to address the other person.
Should he call him 'Mr. Cu Chulainn'? Is that too distant? So, should he just call him by his name? Would that be rude?
But Cu Chulainn didn't care at all. Instead, he patted his chest.
"You can just call me 'Cu Chulainn' or 'Senior Brother'~"
"Alright, Senior Brother, I remember you should be a very brave warrior, so why is your barbecue technique so skillful?"
Although Lancer didn't know about Cu Chulainn's situation, he knew himself very well. He was the kind of person who couldn't cook, and no matter how you looked at it, Cu Chulainn's style didn't quite match that of a chef.
"Skillful? It's alright? By the way, have you forgotten that I'm also a 'Druid'? Just relying on fruits is not enough to replenish energy in the forest. Barbecue is one of the simplest foods. Oh, you know what a Druid is, right?"
"Druid? They're the ones who fiercely protect animals and are enemies of humans, and then attack lumberjacks..."
"Wait! Where did you hear those strange rumors? We Druids are the executors of nature's will! Although we hate the wanton destruction of forests, we don't attack lumberjacks. After all, humans themselves are a part of nature, and it's normal to get wood from nature!"
It had to be said that Lancer and Cu Chulainn's understanding was very different.
The 'Druid' that Lancer knew basically came from 'games', but he had no understanding of the real 'Druid belief'. And the most crucial thing was that the 'eras' they were in were completely different.
In Lancer era, humans and nature were in great conflict, but in this era, it was different. After all, the number of humans was limited and insignificant compared to the entire world, so the conflict was not intense.
And when elves were mentioned, Lancer couldn't help but think of a race.
"What about elves? Have you ever seen an elf?"
"Elves? Fairies? Those little guys that are only the size of a palm?"
It had to be said that Cu Chulainn was very good at telling stories. While chatting with him, Lancer also temporarily forgot some things.
The two of them ate and chatted, and time flew by. When Scathach appeared in the distance holding a crimson long spear, the two of them quickly tidied up the things on the ground. They knew that the 'real business' had arrived.
Unlike the match between Lancer and Cu Chulainn, Cu Chulainn and Scathach were both holding 'Gae Bolg' in their hands, and their battle was much more thrilling than his. Cu Chulainn, who had been suppressing him all along, was almost powerless to fight back in his battle with Scathach.
But this was not the most crucial thing. As Cu Chulainn's teacher, being able to suppress Cu Chulainn was completely expected. What really surprised Lancer was that the 'moves' that Scathach used were almost all the ones he was good at.
Whether it was 'Triple Thrust' or 'Charge' or 'Charged Strike', these were things that had already been integrated into his body's instincts. As long as he had a thought, he could use them naturally. He could be sure that the other person was using these three moves, but why... was she able to suppress Cu Chulainn?
Lancer still frowned as he watched the two of them until Cu Chulainn was swept away by Scathach's spear shaft and was lying on the ground, panting loudly.
"Did you notice anything wrong?"
"I think I noticed something? I feel that during the battle just now, your strength also seemed to be controlled at the same level as Cu Chulainn, but you used my moves to suppress him. Is it because you're more proficient?"
Hearing Lancer answer, the other person nodded but also shook her head.
"What you said isn't entirely wrong. You could say it's 'more proficient', but you could also understand it as 'achieving full mastery'. I don't know who your former spear teacher was, but their ability was really too poor. When you use the spear in your hand, you are too constrained by 'moves'. You have to know that any 'move' is just a 'way' for you to swing the long spear in your hand. You are too obsessed with 'moves' and have abandoned the essentials for the trivial. You have locked yourself in a fixed space."
Although some 'teachers' like to say 'figure it out yourself' and explain it with 'you'll remember it more clearly if you figure it out yourself', Scathach's teaching method was clearly not this one. Of course, it was also possible that Lancer strength hadn't reached the level of 'figuring it out'.
But no matter which one it was, there was no doubt that Scathach's explanation also explained Lancer previous 'confusion'. He was originally completely confused about the so-called 'Spear Advanced Combat Skills', and after all this time, it turned out that this was what it meant? Wasn't it just the so-called 'the unseen victory' in martial arts novels?
Seeing the light flashing in Lancer eyes, Scathach nodded in satisfaction. Although she didn't say it explicitly, she knew that Lancer understood what she meant.
There was no doubt that teaching a smart disciple was much easier, such as a certain Lancer who had already figured out the key, or a certain Cu Chulainn who was lying on the ground panting loudly.
