Chapter 51 - 50. A bit of pathos.
Chapter 50
It took us literally a couple of minutes to cover a fairly decent distance to the area near the Temple of a Thousand Winds, where an active guardian of the ruins stood in the middle of a destroyed semblance of a colliseum.
- AAAAA... Ugh! - Cyrus suddenly screamed, Oz letting him go about a meter above the ground, and then the raven himself landed nearby and, unlike the man, specially bent down and put out his wing so that Genie could calmly descend.
"I hope the flight was pleasant, Lady Djinn," the raven addressed the girl.
"Everything was great, thank you Oz," the girl thanked with a smile.
"Looks like we've arrived," I said, landing next to Genie. It was fun to travel with the help of infinity, but I still liked flying on my own wings when I was united with Oz.
"I wouldn't mind a softer landing," Cyrus grumbled, rubbing his lower back, getting our attention.
- Cyrus, how are you? Maybe I should treat you? - Jeanne asked worriedly.
- Oh, don't worry. As the head of the adventurers' guild, I'm pretty tough, you can't get me down with that, hahaha. - The man laughed, showing off his huge biceps, and I bet I heard Oz snort, albeit quietly.
- In that case, I think the head of the adventure guild won't mind if he's dropped higher next time, I'm sure you'll make a good paratrooper.
- A... er, I think I'll prefer a more classic way of returning. - The slightly pale man lost his mood.
