    We’ve seen Clarissa and her knight go all the way from Dunkelfelger’s capital to Ehrenfest in a single day, which is multiple times as much distance as Kirnberger and Ehrenfest are apart, by just going ham on pouring mana into their highbeasts for maximum speed and downing loads of rejuvenation potions.

    When Judithe estimated a full day on highbeast, she probably considered a more reasonable, non-emergency pace with occasional breaks to eat along the way and either no, or just very light use of rejuvenation potions. Also that was before she got the Rozemyne mana compression, if I remember correctly.

      That’s a good point. The mednoble retainers may be pretty exhausted after going all out, but they should be able to make it in time. It’s possible they could use Steifebrise’s blessing to go faster too.

        I don’t think that’ll be a problem. Remember that despite having the official ranks of mednobles, Matthias and Laurenz are from families that have archnoble levels of mana (due to archnobles Ahrensbach females marrying down into their families), they were taught Georgine’s mana compression method and got a bonus from being Rozemyne’s name-sworn on top, plus a little more extra mana efficiency from having a couple of extra divine protections, compared to the majority of nobles.
