Leonel and Aina soared through the skies. Though it would have been faster if the surfboard entered its shuttle mode, Leonel decided against it.
For one, the cockpit was too small for two people and he didn't feel alright leaving Aina alone at this moment. And, secondly, even though they might be able to squeeze in with how small Aina was, he wasn't confident in driving that monstrosity with just a single arm.
With its speed, even a half degree of deviation would fling them off course by tens of miles.
So, Leonel sat cross legged on the surfboard, gliding through the air with Aina balled up in his lap. Even now, she hadn't said a single word.
Leonel gripped an Urbe Ore in his good remaining hand, greedily absorbing its Essence.
The good news about his Metal Body was that he could heal himself even more effectively now just by absorbing the Essence of metals.
