But you'd have to slow it down a bit, or people would get suspicious.

And wonder why you're wearing a pair of boots.

Well, more then races, I would love to use the 7 league boots for travelling. The traffic is unbearable.

I am not complaining about travelling from country to country. Within the city will more then suffice. Apparition (spel?) will be cool to. Spirits can't do that right? An essential magic form which they lack.

Ignoring that, actually spirits can.
Something like this in GE (from memory, bear with me)

Nat says something to the extent of "my demon can fetch anything instantly"

Bart: "Something of an overtsatement here. I can certantly dematerialize, materialize elsewere, find the object, and materialize back to here, all taking at least a few seconds. I can't spirit things out of thin air, hat's just silly."

Idk, go look it up for the exact quote.

Hm. If seven league boots were allowed in the Olympics I bet Nat would be able to finish all the events in an hour and still be able to shower, provided he didn't die DDDDDDDDDDD:

Hmm...I smell a contender for joining Nero's spam club. :P

But lets put Seven League boots into Science. How would it be possible to make them. Do it the Star Wars/Halo way and go into a AU? :P
