We had been flying for over an hour now. The sun was now above our head, and the view of the Lorren Mountains had also become clearer. If I had to guess, it was at most only half an hour more.
Although that didn't really happen, since we had to take a break, as I was running out of mana and Akumi was also exhausted. It turns out it wasn't a skill he was using to fly, but rather an ability of the Excalibur, and it also required a huge amount of mana to operate.
I was quite comforted to know that fact, as it would have been a frustratingly broken ability if it didn't require mana to use.
Hence both of us came down and decided to take a break. We rested for about an hour or so before leaving again.
And now we were standing right below the Lorren Mountains. In height, they weren't that high. Compared to the other mountains in this region, I'd say it was about the average size—which is exactly what would have made it difficult to find if I didn't know the location.
