Chapter 92: “Revenge”
When Rare got wings, she also got the skill [Flight] which allowed her to travel through the sky. However, it was simply the skill making her fly, she didn’t actually use her wings to do it. Therefore, she didn’t have to flap her wings like a bird normally would in order to displace air to generate lift and thrust, meaning she wasn’t restricted to subsonic speeds either. So, since her wings would just be a source of drag while using [High-Speed Flight], she could just fold them and wrap them around her body. And now, with [Demonic Eyes], she could keep an eye on her surroundings with her eyes closed, so she didn’t even need goggles.
It seemed that trying to fly at this speed while maintaining [Dark Curtain] was a bit much, so she would just have to go without it this time. However, since she had more wings now that could cover up her entire body, none of her skin was exposed to the sun. She could avoid taking damage from sunlight when she had to go outside for short periods of time this way. The sun was much lower in the sky too, so it wasn’t as strong compared to before.
This was her first time flying by herself, but she was a lot faster than she thought she would be. It must have been at least three times faster than she expected. She didn’t know whether it was because she wasn’t wearing Yoroizaka now, or because she had obtained more wings, but either way, at this rate, she should reach the capital very soon.
<Your Majesty!>
<Boss!>
The capital would be coming into view any second now. But she suddenly received a bunch of friend chats. It was her followers.
<Ah… I’m sorry you all died so suddenly. Is everyone all right?>
<That is what we want to know…! Rather than that, where are you right now?>
<Almost at the capital.>
