Flain was running along the path by the forest exactly according to the map. There shouldn't be an area with very strong monsters nearby, but even if one appeared in his way, Flain would just fly over it using Ghosty.
Ghosty was flying right next to Flain. He always maintained the same speed as Flain so he could constantly stay with him. If he didn't have this ability, he would have to constantly teleport a short distance forward to stay within the 1-kilometer limit from Flain.
Ghosty was content because he could finally see the world outside the academy.
"Hey Flain? Could we stay a bit longer?" he asked along the way.
"Sorry, but no. I have limited time at the academy, so I have to use it for the most amazing things. But don't worry, after the academy, there will be more than enough trips like this," Flain said with a smile.
Ghosty looked stiff. "Alright. But keep in mind that I don't like it."
