On this day, a griffin crossed half a forest, carrying a human, continuously flying above the forest.
During this time, no clueless demons came to harass them.
Because most demons wouldn't fly, and those that could seemed afraid to provoke such a high-level demon like a griffin, allowing Shane to pass through half the forest unimpeded, making traveling efficiency higher than the past ten days combined.
This made Shane increasingly joyful and hopeful about escaping, thus becoming more and more expectant.
Of course, Shane didn't break his promise, constantly infusing magic power into the griffin beneath him, making the griffin fly faster and cry out more comfortably.
Evidently, Shane had completely won over the griffin's heart with this move.
This prompted Shane to take a look at the effect of the [Tame] skill.
· Uses magic power in a specific way to achieve the effect and purpose of taming demons. The higher the level, the higher the demons that can be tamed, and the more rare and powerful demons can be tamed.
This skill, as soon as you look at it, you know how useful it is.
So, Shane was more diligent in infusing magic power into the griffin, making the griffin also fly more diligently.
Naturally, this caused Shane to consume a lot of magic power.
However, due to the skill [Magic Guide], Shane's magic power was quite abundant.
If, in a normal state, Shane's magic power was "one hundred," then after the amplification effect of the [Magic Guide] skill, his magic power would become "one thousand," with the increase reaching no less than ten times.
And this was only with [Magic Guide] being at Level 1.
So, after Shane maxed out [Magic Guide], his magic power increased many times over, and as the level increased, the amplification became greater and greater, allowing Shane to use the [Extreme Transformation] skill quite freely.
In such a situation, coupled with the effect of [Magic Recovery], Shane's magic power would recover at the fastest speed while being consumed, especially after maxing it out, the magic power Shane consumed would almost be fully recovered within a second, quite unfairly.
In light of this, Shane didn't need to worry about lacking magic power. Even when consuming large amounts of magic power continuously , his magic power would still be full, as if it hadn't been used at all.
Given this, Shane could keep infusing magic power into the griffin to tame it and have it carry him in flight.
After quite a lengthy period of flying, Shane finally saw the forest's boundary line.
"Did we finally come out?"
Looking at the vast plains beyond the forest edge, Shane became exhilarated.
"Ten days, I've finally left this damned forest."
Shane couldn't wait to meet people other than himself, eat food from human society, instead of constantly dealing with demons, eating demon meat, and playing the survival game in the wild.
The griffin cried out as though it could sense Shane's thoughts, its wings quivering once more, increasing speed again.
I must say, the griffin's speed was truly considerable, almost comparable to fighter jets from the previous world, which allowed Shane to cross the forest that took ten days to see the end of.
"It's said that griffins have the instinct to predict the weather and can fly in any condition. In some mythological tales, they are even mounts of God Spirits. Indeed, not just legends."
Shane praised it, and the griffin made a proud sound, flying even faster.
Then, at an unprecedented speed, Shane hurried along and left the forest after half a minute, entering the vast plains.
Upon entering the plains, Shane began to see people in succession.
They were people traveling on what seemed to be artificially made roads.
Some were riding carriages, some were on horses, appearing to be merchants or possibly soldiers or knights.
In corners of the plains, Shane could faintly see several pastures and farms.
However, the griffin's presence seemed to cause a slight commotion, inciting some fear among the people below, resulting in awkward actions. Some soldiers and knights even prepared bows and arrows, on guard for a sudden griffin attack.
Only, they probably hadn't noticed there was a human on the griffin's back.
Shane felt an urge to go down and communicate with those people.
But appearing with a demon might provoke unnecessary hostility.
"I don't know how people in this world perceive demons, so being cautious is better."
If attacked because of moving with demons, then it would be quite a loss.
"I'd better head to the town first."
Suppressing the impulse to land, Shane decided as much.
Fortunately, a town soon appeared before Shane.
It was quite an expansive town.
There were high city walls around it, where numerous figures were moving around, likely soldiers or knights patrolling and guarding.
"Alright, let's land around here."
Shane made that decision directly.
Otherwise, if they noticed a demon approaching, those on the city walls would surely launch an attack immediately, preventing the demon from entering the town.
The griffin screeched high, descending very obediently.
Before long, the griffin arrived at an isolated suburb, allowing Shane to jump off its back.
"You've worked hard." Shane patted the griffin's head, saying softly, "Alright, you can go back now."
Hearing this, the griffin didn't comply but instead kept calling out to Shane.
"What? Do you want to continue?"
Shane was slightly taken aback, then laughed.
"That's a pity. I need to enter a human town now, can't take you along, nor let you keep enjoying, so you'd better go back."
Shane told the griffin like that.
Whether it understood or not, the griffin called out several more times to Shane, then seemed somewhat displeased, staring at Shane for quite a while before finally letting out a screech, flapping its wings, and flying into the sky.
The griffin hovered around Shane for a while overhead, before giving a clear and resounding call, then flew away.
Shane watched this griffin leave until its figure disappeared entirely on the horizon, then turned around, looking toward the town a short distance away.
"Otherworld, I'm coming."
Leaving those words, Shane began walking, appearing somewhat impatient, toward the town.
