The moment Osborne carried both Leo and Elmont on his shoulder, the two immediately noticed a significant increase in their speed. If before their speed was only as fast as a Magical Beast Rabbit, then they are like a Magical Beast Cheetah this time. It is basically far in comparison to before.
It was at this moment that they finally realized just how badly they were holding back Osborne before. Supposed that they have let Osborne move on his own during their journey to the northwest, in that case, he would have definitely reached his destination within a span of an hour or more, even if it was raining or snowing.
With that in mind, both Leo and Elmont can't help feeling ashamed.
”As expected of someone from the Orc race. Not only are they strong, but their physical fitness is beyond ordinary measures as well,” Leo complimented.
”Yeah! We people of the Elf race can't even hope to compare to them,” Elmont added.
”Not really. As far as I know, the Orc race is only strong when it comes to anything related to physical. But when it comes to other stuff, we also can't be compared to other Foreign races as well,” Osborne humbly responded.
Quickly realizing that their conversation is not going anywhere, Leo said, ”Let's end all of these pleasantries and focus more on getting away from this place as soon as possible,”
”Same thought,” Elmont nodded his head in agreement.
”Okay,” Osborne acknowledged.
With that being said, Leo and the others continued with their journey towards the center of the map.
Along the way, they have occasionally encountered a few groups of Vine-arm Chimpanzees, which Leo simply scared by killing the leader of their group. This was something that he had learned after their first experience with fighting against them. As long as the leader is killed, the rest would quickly disperse to look for another leader.
The leader of the group of Vine-arm Chimpanzees would always stay at the back; thus, it wasn't difficult for Leo to find them. In addition to that, he also has the assistance of his Wind Elementals.
From time to time, probably due to luck, they had found some chests containing some needed items hidden in not so difficult to find areas. And as they continued going deeper and deeper to the center of the map, they noticed that the items became increasingly more useful and powerful. From merely metal and steel weapons, they started finding themselves with weapons made out of Magical materials, like Magic iron, Magic crystals, and the best they have found so far, mithril. This also doesn't only limit weapons but includes armors, equipment, and many other tools as well.
