The delay was brief, yet the airship had already ascended to great heights, appearing as a mere speck from this vantage point.
"It's so high!" Theodore looked up in astonishment at the airship that continued to climb. Initially, he thought that even if it could fly, it would reach a maximum height of a few hundred meters; however, to his surprise, the airship had surpassed two thousand meters in just a short while.
Fortunately, the practice of long-distance viewing magic wasn't challenging, and most of the Wizards present were proficient in it, so they could still see everything clearly despite the considerable distance.
After ascending to a height of two thousand five hundred meters, the airship stopped and then, by the thrust of steam, gradually moved forward propelled by the rear rotor blades.
Not only could it fly, but it also moved with remarkable stability!
