Lisa and Alma were soon nearing Logan's town. Lisa was on Zephyr's back while Alma had ridden on Orus.
They had taken turns and used various buffs to keep the two birds in the air and make them have inexhaustible energy throughout the flight.
As they inspected the town from the air, they noticed the place was impressive by this world's standards, with walls ten meters high and thick, large columns, and well-placed vantage points for attacking from inside the walls.
Surrounding the walls were green vines with red flowers, a strange sight but they covered most of the walls.
Seven towers stood imposingly around the walls. Two of these smaller towers were placed next to the large wooden gates, which were used as a bridge over a moat that seemed like a lake.
Both girls were impressed with the town within the walls. It was lively and full of hope in a town that was said to be soon attacked by demons.
Carriages were coming and going through the gates. A large market spanned the length of the main street that crossed the center of the town, with many people buying and selling.
As they descended, they saw how the houses looked like exact replicas of each other, making the streets look orderly but a little monotonous.
Each was made with a mix of earth and wood, with each roof a different color to add flavor to the town.
In the distance, they spotted large buildings that would no doubt be governmental or guild structures, and a large clock that was the centerpiece of the town.
It wasn't long before Zephyr and Orus landed near a large mansion, the biggest house in the town.
Standing outside, Alma saw Logan, a large red dinosaur, a large snake, and many other creatures around.
"Welcome… welcome to Highcrest," she heard Logan say, while looking at them as they tried to slowly adjust back to standing on solid ground.
Lisa quickly cast a spell that cured Alma's dizziness and let her return to her normal state. She could now look around with even greater detail.
What she concentrated on first was Logan, the boy who had changed so drastically.
His long hair no longer covered his face. It was to the side but most of it was placed back. It was now black with white tips, and it seemed to radiate like Lisa's platinum hair.
The boy looked more robust, strong but still thin, and tall as always.
His expression, unlike before, showed more confidence, as if he had led countless troops to battle.
It was a look Alma knew well, only that it belonged to Logan of the past.
Alma then looked towards Lisa, who would no doubt want to talk to the boy, but noticed that they just stared at each other.
She had her suspicion, but did not act on it. Alma did not want to interrupt the couple's interaction and looked at them with a warm smile.
The girl knew her best friend's feelings for the boy. It was obvious and mutual from both sides. She then looked around the mansion and those who came with the boy.
She noticed another in the group she knew. Marie looked at Lisa with a little bit of hostility, a look shared by a few more, including a red-haired girl, a maid, and a beautiful dark-haired girl with small fangs.
"Damn, just how many girls did you trick into liking you, Logan?"
Lisa, on the other hand, did not have time to look at the rest of Logan's companions. As soon as he introduced his town, Lisa heard a voice within her mind.
"Hey there, Lisa. I hope you're doing well. You look stunning… You must have been the first one to finish their quest. I wonder how it was faster than me?"
Lisa felt her heart flutter now that she was near the boy again. This time was even worse since he had changed so much that she felt it wasn't just his doing.
"Yes… well, I had a certain event that helped me skip my quest. As for the change in my appearance, it was unexpected. But now, looking at you, I think it will happen to all those who change class and get their next boost of power."
Lisa said as she also tried to see who was responsible for Logan's great change. She looked towards a particular girl who she knew had interacted with Logan from the start of their stay in this world—the red-haired girl, Rubina, daughter of Earl Rosengard.
Rubina looked away as soon as Lisa turned to her, meaning that nothing serious had happened between the two, which made Lisa feel better and calm.
"It's a beautiful town, Logan. What I like best are the weird vines with flowers growing outside the wall. It makes me wonder when it will stop growing," Lisa commented on a strange thing that she had noticed as they passed through the stone structures.
"Oh, if it's about that, it's one of my beasts doing it. She will soon make a dome over the walls and keep us safe from aerial attacks," Logan began telling them about his various beasts.
He introduced both newcomers to all of them, including Serana, who did not like being around Lisa and the light elemental aura that radiated powerfully around her.
"Well then… let's enter. I hope you both are hungry; we were just about to have lunch."
"Sure, it was a long trip here, you know… a full night, so I might have to take a nap after eating," Lisa said, while covering her mouth to yawn.
Logan chuckled and nodded, feeling grateful that Lisa would do so much for him in his time of need.
"No problem. We have more than enough rooms for you two. Take your pick after lunch. I will make sure the food is something light so you can sleep easily."
As soon as the group got near the tables, they were joined by another hero, Ruben, who was already seated with his girlfriend, and Wayana, who he had strangely gotten close to.
Logan heard Lisa ask.
He answered while food was being brought in so they could eat.
