| uran10 said: Its not about luring the MC into the trap with the curse. When it gets hungry it feeds off of mana, it does this through curses and it cursed all the children. I'd go further in but that's spoiler/conjecture category. Mainly cause LN readers keep giving huge clues (blue braid girl). Simply put it was hungry and if it lured the villagers there it would have more food which is mana. The goal isn't to kill anybody its to feed itself which is pretty much killing people. The villagers would search for the children and then it would have more food. Its actually simple when you really think about it. You're thinking too much in terms of MC. He is an anomly, nothing is done with him as the centre. He is the interloper that changes the course (which usually leads to his death/restart). The shaman only cares about feeding itself (from what I could see here) it bit the children, and by doing so it had food. If the villagers came to get the children then it would have more food in the villagers. |
From what I remember of the anime, the explanation wasn't THAT elaborate but yes I guess it makes sense with the latest episode ...
