[Ace POV],
"Take it easy, boy," I said to Blue as we soared through the sky. Initially, he was flying so fast that we would have reached the alternate dimension in just a few minutes, but that wasn't my intention.
I replied to Anna's message, informing her that I would meet her in front of the alternate dimension entrance after exchanging a few words with the emperor. However, I didn't expect her to reply immediately.
Her message was simple: she and the others had gone hunting and were currently in the midst of a fight, so she told me to take my time.
Unfortunately, I received this message after leaving the settlement. If I had known earlier, I would have stayed there for a while. As I gazed down at the landscape below me, a thought crossed my mind: "Perhaps I should hunt some monsters too."
