After a long journey, the Ship of Stein Family reached the spatial crack that connected to the Northern World.

Even though it was a spatial crack, it appeared as if the entire world was split apart, in that space. Lightning could be seen crackling in the sky. However, even those Lightning Bolts seemed to contain some elements of Space.

Just the single bolt was alone to rip a person apart, destroying them from their core. It was also because of these Spatial Disturbances that people couldn't pass through to other worlds without using special vessels.

Fortunately, the Ship of the Stein Clan was one such vessel. Thanks to all the protective measures that were cast while creating the massive ship, it was protected in a barrier that helped it avoid the Spatial Lightning Bolts.

It was as if the barrier made it so that the spatial element couldn't cause large-scale harm. However, it didn't mean that there was no harm. The longer a ship remained in the spatial storm, the more harm the ship was going to face.

Gabriel stood on the deck of the ship, observing the sky. At the moment, no other person even dared to step on the deck, as if they were worried about being hurt.

On the other hand, Gabriel felt more interested in the spatial element in the lightning bolts.

Lightning was said to be one of the most destructive elements in the world, because of the chaotic energy it possessed. On the other hand, Space was a Supreme Element, just like the Element of Death.

A merger of the element of space and the element of lightning was a fascinating sight in itself. It was as if a single lightning bolt was passing through thousands of parallel spaces at the same time.

Looking at the Spatial Cracks everywhere, Gabriel couldn't help but think back to the moment where Raphael had used the Spatial Stone in the war against the Temple of Time.

"The power of space..." he muttered, not taking his eyes off the chaotic sky for even a moment.

He didn't know why, but he even felt as if the spatial lightning was alive. It was unclear if it was just his misconception.

Throughout the entire time, Gabriel didn't leave. Even as the ship entered the spatial crack, Gabriel remained out. It was his first time traveling in such a way after all. He was quite curious about the spatial tunnel that the Ships used.

He wanted to experience everything. However, as soon as the ship entered the spatial crack, the surroundings turned stark white. It prompted him to close his eyes, to avoid going blind.

Also, in the next moment, he was already out of the spatial tunnel. It was as if the journey only took an instant.

On the other side of the Spatial Crack was the Northern World. However, even as they entered the Northern World, none from the Stein Clan came out, since this place was also facing spatial storms.

The ship kept traveling, without break. Only when it passed through the spatial storms did the others in the Stein Clan start coming out, to check the extent of the damages on the ship.

But fortunately, the damages were minimal and easily repairable. At best, there were only a few cracks that were visible, but that didn't affect anything.

As everyone came out, Gabriel once again disappeared, as if he was nothing more than a ghost. However, he didn't forget to observe the Northern World... The world which people dreamt to enter.... People like the Goddess of Light.

The Northern World was a beautiful place, with rolling hills covered in snow, icy glaciers, and shimmering auroras lighting up the sky.

However, that was only one side. This world also had areas with green planes, sea, and even mountains and volcanoes.

Moreover because of the diverse climate and rich history, the Northern World was also the most prosperous. This was also the place where the strongest in the Upper Realm resided.

Even the tenth strongest family in the Northern World was said to be as strong as the strongest family in the Southern World. The Stein Family was the fourth, even after their fall.

The Stein Family was established in the central zone of the Northern World.

Even though they didn't possess their old glory anymore, throughout the years, they had built an extensive network in the Northern World, collaborating with other renowned factions to establish their presence.

Although their strength had fallen from their peak, it still wasn't something that others could ignore. Unfortunately, many powerful clans were eying them as well, waiting for them to make one mistake.

With this looming threat, the Stein Family knew they needed to tread carefully and strategize their moves wisely to maintain their position and protect their interests in the ever-changing landscape of the Northern World. They understood that any wrong move could result in the collapse of everything they had painstakingly built over the years.

Thanks to their peculiar position, Gabriel felt that he was at the right place. However, he also knew that he had to be careful. A family that was already on their last steps, being surrounded by wolves, could easily toss him to the wolves to protect themselves, so he didn't quite trust them either.

After half a day of journey, the ship finally reached the area that was controlled by the Stein Family.

From the high above, the Stein Family looked wealthy. Just on the outskirts of their land, multiple giant golems could be seen. Moreover, the area of their mansion was multiple times larger than the ones in the Southern World.

As the ship entered deeper into the territory, a few more Ancient Ships could also be seen on the ground.

The ship on which Gabriel was traveling landed and finally, people on the ship sighed in relief. After a long journey, they were finally back.

Ulesis also got down the ship. However, she didn't forget to gesture to Gabriel to follow her.
