It was better to let her rot in there for as long a time as possible. The angrier she became the better.
And then I used the staff, jumped over to the big mines before starting flying south east.
[For how long?]
[At least two hundred miles, or perhaps three? I don't know. I just started calculating the distance after getting out from the mountainous region]
[Got it]
At least there was a mark for me to assess my direction and distance.
However, crossing that rough mountainous terrain took almost two days. And I was using my chariot's top speed here.
The more I flew past the mountain tops, the more I believed Angelica's words. Her earlier assessment about the unsuitability of this terrain for my people was correct.
As I crossed the mountainous region, I knew I had at most ten hours to arrive at her location.
During this time, she kept moving outwards and spreading out her limited people to look for more ore veins.
