Michelle spread her six wings, flying in the air and vanishing from the others' sight almost instantly. A few seconds after she vanished, Althea finally made the giant flying lotus leaf move forward. However, as expected, it was far too slow. Their horizontal moving speed was only about five meters per second, which was just a little faster than a normal human running at average speed.
