The next morning the group took off early, they were cheered by the army who remain behind as the two girls attracted the attention of all the soldiers present, even if one of them wasn't a hero, her contributions to the safety of their kingdom was appreciated, especially when they saw just how powerful Rubina's flas were, half a kiloter of forest was burned to the grown while not fully destroyed thanks for Lisa's magic.
"So how far do you think we will get today?" Lisa asked while yawning, the strong sunlight in the horizon had yet to reach the group, its rays were still being contained by a tall mountain range in the distance.
"Not sure, I hope we get gyeszorosz by the end of today, that would at least give us a place to rest…" Logan said while looking at the map using a crystal, it was displayed in a way that looked like a laptop screen.
"That city should be the second largest one after the capital vesza, so we should be able to find a good inn there," Rubina inford while trying the griffin she was on next to Logan.
"How about it Zephyr, do you want to sleep inside a warm barn tonight?" Logan patted the back of his bird who controlled the wind around him to make it easier for all the birds in the flock to have a good easy flight.
"Want warm place, outside is cold at night." It shrilled as it sent out his ntal communication.
"Alright, that just ans we will need to reach it before tonight, lets keep going today, I doubt we can keep helping this kingdom as we are, we need the firepower the wyverns will add to our team before we start fighting again." Logan said with determination, he really wanted to see the dragon-like creatures that would bring power to his army.
Luckily they didn't find anything strange throughout the morning, and with the want to reach the capital soon they did not stop for eat until they had to, it was nearly one in the afternoon before they stopped a small town near the edge of a lake.
"This makes a beautiful scene to have a picnic, if only Chloe ca with us…" Kai said with sadness in his voice.
"Just do a video chat with her, set a blanket over there and take our ti…" Logan pointed to a secluded spot and gave a suggestion the boy had probably forgotten to do with his new crystal communication device, Logan was tempted to just call it a smartphone since its rectangular shape let them create a hologram that not only let them see who they were talking to in front of them but also show the recipient the area around them.
Logan thought about it and did the sa, he knew Alma and the others would probably want to see them.
He called up Alma and placed the crystal on the floor, he then added Marie as he asked Rubina for her communications device.
The two appeared before them as Logan had set up the eting in a way that the two girls could see the sight of the crystalline water, snow-capped mountains in the distance, and an endless green forest beside it. The serene landscape even had normal animals, as swans and duck floated over the water and deer and boars were busy drinking from the waters edges, making it a perfect backdrop for their gathering.
"Hey there Lisa, what a perfect scene… make sure you don't waste it," Alma winked as she said with a bit of envy.
"Nice to see you to… I don't have ti sadly." Lisa said sarcastically, she sat next to Logan to speak with her friend.
"Is there any new happening with Highrule, other then Leonard my advisors report?" Logan asked a little worried.
"No, I guess he told you about the arrival of the other heroes, but no nothing happened so far, they are mainly keeping Ruben busy as he makes new weapons and armors, they are also enjoying there ti here… you are just going be richer with all the cash they will no doubt leave." Alma smiled wackily at Logan.
"Well we did have an increase of cash flow from the casinos… I was going to tell you if we should put an age limit on it… since they are getting a little too addicted to it." Marie said with a worried expression.
"Whatever you consider good Marie, you are in charge of them, I would just suggest you give them a free pass to the arcade to keep them off the casino…" Logan sighed at the prospect of losing money even if it was from his fellow classmates, he knew they were rich and given unlimited funds from the ones that backed them but that would not help them if the kids were stuck playing gas instead of training.
After speaking and enjoying the company of all the girls as well watching the lovely scenery before them they soon packed up and continued on their journey, they needed to be in the next city within a few hours.
The group luckily did not get into any more problems, the girls while a little tired did not complain nor did the birds, Logan did however need to keep a fla up along with Rubina, to warm them up, the temperatures were so cold that they could see their breath.
The trees were beginning to be covered in snow, as soon even the ground had a thick layer of snow.
"Guess we should hurry, keeping the flas up is going to drain us of our mana," Logan said watching as the suns were setting faster then he had anticipated.
"Just a few more kiloters…" Lisa said as she was looking at the map through her crystal, they were going just fast enough to reach it within half an hour.
"Alright then, guess we should drink another bottle of mana water… ugh" Logan said patting his already full belly.
