The group continued flying for more than five hours. The journey was long, but Leon and Emilia found a way to entertain themselves.
Whenever they spotted monsters below, they would fire spells at them.
At first, it was simply something to do during the flight, but eventually, Leon and Emilia turned it into a game.
They continued firing their spells at monsters below as they flew, competing to see who could kill the most.
And eventually, the scenery began to change: a thick mist appeared ahead.
At first, it was only a small amount, but the deeper they flew, the thicker it became until their surroundings were almost completely covered.
Violet slowed down slightly. Something felt wrong. The farther they went into the mist, the stronger the strange feeling became.
Then the pressure appeared. It wasn't a pressure against their bodies. It was pressing directly against their souls.
Leon immediately noticed it.
