”More 21 hours to go,” while moving, Ajax checked the time remaining for leaving the Five elemental world.
For the past three hours, they were moving towards the hidden cave, hoping that the older birdman would not find them very soon.
After moving for some more distance, they finally reached their destination and entered the hidden-cave.
'Ding,
The inner world is upgraded successfully.
'Ding,
Upgrading the dark elemental paradise in the inner world with the mysterious energy.
'Ding,
The host still has a chance to select an element for his new elemental paradise.
Fire/water/wind/earth/Life, among the five elements, please choose one.
After sitting in the cave for a moment, Ajax got a series of system notifications informing about the completion of the inner world's upgrade.
”I will select the element later,” Ajax just closed the system notifications.
He was tired from all the travelling he had done from the past three days.

”Huh?” the older birdman looked visibly confused.
”Why the spiritual mark I put on Ice sparrow and the lightning dragon hawk, disappeared at the same time,” suddenly, he became alert as it never happened with the previous participants.
As he said that he vanished from the place he was standing along with the chained Raweth.

'Ding,
The array discs effectiveness is about to expire.
'Ding,
Now transfer the Ice Sparrow and Snow into the inner world.
Without any delay, he recalled both the spirit beasts into his spirit consciousness.
'kacha'
As soon as he transferred them, the array disc in his hand was destroyed.
Similarly, the array discs in the hands of his elemental spirits were also destroyed.
”System, how many hours do you think it takes for the inner world to keep him away from us?” Ajax didn't know how long but he knew it would block for some hours in the least.
'Ding,
The system was unable to gauge the exact strength of the older birdman, so the system can't tell the host an exact time.
