| 5 | 
After defeating Leanan Sidhe, return to Apsaras to complete the quest. You will receive 2 Health Incense and 700 EXP. Apsaras will also join your party. |
Note: Siding with Leanan Sidhe will cause this quest to fail. You will then receive rewards for The Water Nymph sidequest instead.
Ippon Datara is resistant to fire and weak against Hama, while Leanan Sidhe is weak against Hama and Zan. Take down Leanan Sidhe first, since she can use Mudo to instantly kill you.
Full Guide:
How to Beat Leanan Sidhe
We recommend going for Leanan Sidhe, since she has the better healing skill, as well as a powerful Mamudo skill. The Stamina Incense rewards will also be very beneficial, especially for magic-based builds, as MP is harder to come by.
Apsaras is still a good choice with her solid array of Ice-based magic. She will also greatly help in the fight against Hydra.

I like how the enlarge feature, just puts the image dead center of my map. Without actually "enlarging" it. Way to always make me question why this site exists beyond Ad revenue. Good god, if you somehow stumble on this comment, know that not only does this site steal information from other sites, it also does it poorly. Fucking stupid. I dont care about the thievery, it's more just how pathetic it is.
