40 The Meeting Of Nobles (1/2)

Faust did not go towards the shrine for a few days. When he asked Yang and Gus about spiritual powers, they both denied of knowing such a thing.

One day out of curiosity Faust, who has been restless again, goes inside the shrine, but this time he enters a different shrine than the last one. As he enters the shrine, he once again felt his soul relaxing and calming.

Faust sits down and closes his eyes as he gets ready to fall asleep.

”Why didn't you visit all these days?.” Out of nowhere Yui says to Faust from behind him, as looking a bit sad.

”Wahhhhhh! ahhhh!! Don't scare me like that! I thought I would come to you when I sleep but it's not happening. I can only enter here and visit you when I'm sleeping in my village's shrines. And why is it dark here? No sun?” Faust panics at first but then gets himself together and says to Yui while starring at the sky.

”It's night, what do you expect?” Yui holds the hand of Faust and says. ”Last time we flew up right?So now, let's fly down.” Yui says this like it was a normal thing to do for her, as she and Faust's feet start sinking in the invisible land and entering another dimension.

Faust is at loss of words when his whole body sinks in.

There was a real city below them, but the atmosphere is more foggy and dark rather than clear and nice. Faust and Yui are floating as if they're inside a water body.

The spirit world is our earth but in a different dimension. The view of earth is different from within the spirit world. The humans and other living beings cannot see you, but you can see them and you can also see the other beings from spirit world who are floating around. The spiritual dimension consists of three layers, the first layer where you arrive when you enter this dimension is the spirit gateway, which just seems to be floating in the air like magic. Everything below you is concealed, but above is open. The layer above it, that you reach when you go upwards, is the upper spirit world. The guardians, spirit clouds and higher level beings that guard this dimension reside there. When you go downwards from the spirit gateway through the concealed ground, you will reach the mortal world, which is human world. Faust and Yui were now in the mortal world.

The whole city is glimmering with different colors of lights in the night sky. It is the pure black of night that gives the stars and the city lights a chance to shine. The black rock the buildings have been made off of, looks just like an amusement park for Faust, who has never seen a city before.

”What place is this?” Faust asks while being mesmerized watching the city and new people move around, busying themselves, below him.

”It's somewhere in Mainland. We cannot choose a particular place to go from the gateway.” Yui says while watching Faust with a smile appearing on her face.

”Let's go. I will give you a tour, hahaha.” Yui grabs Faust's hand and flies all around the place as she excitedly explains to him about the mortals world along the way.

Faust comes and visits Yui whenever he can trick the guard and get into the shrines. They become very close friends, they both start training together as Faust did with Tim back at home before. Faust uses his fists to train and Yui uses her spear. They both explore the spirit world and sometimes visit the palace of Uriel and spend some time with him while he watches Faust fight with Yui. This has become one of his training sessions for Faust for months after months.

*After 6 months*

In the spirit world,

Inside a certain house built in the clouds.

”So, someone is meeting up with the princess and spending time with her? And Uriel just let it slide? Who is that kid? Is he a prince of any world?” A man looking like a noble with an all black military uniform with cross bone badges on one part of his shirt asks.

A thin black belt is worn cross the body from neck to waist and another thick belt is worn around the waist with couple of short guns hanging from the belt.

”No, my Lord, there is no information on that kid, nor do we know why Uriel approves of them interacting with each other.” said another man who is standing next to him, while he bows his head down with utmost respect and loyalty.

”We can't let this to continue, get the top kids from our house and keep that little brat, who is distracting our princess, away from her.” The man in the uniform says taken over by rage and disappointment, that was clearly visible in his eyes.

”Very well, my Lord, I will make sure our kids will stand up to their name.” The man standing next to him replies.

”And about the meeting with Uriel in few days regarding him being our ally, our Royal king asked you to take care of the meeting.” The man tells the person who was enveloping in rage.
