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.
"Hmmmm, that's a good news now." The guy in the military uniform responds.
After a few days, in a huge palace which is seemed to be covered in gold. It is shining brightly with festive sounds and people welcoming nobles from the earth to this realm. They are meant to have a meeting about making Uriel the king of spirit world as their alliance and loyal guardian.
"Lord Lucifer, we are visiting Uriel's palace for alliance, but if he sniffs out our plans for his daughter and that kid, we won't come back alive from the palace. Please rethink this matter about teaching the kid a lesson." Simon says to the guy in the black military uniform who wanted to teach Faust a lesson. Simon is the loyal guard of Lucifer, from the house of nobles of earth called "The house of asuras(demons). One of the strongest house of Aztecc Nation, on earth.
Lucifer just smiles as a reply to what Simon says.
"Did you handover the mission to our kids?" Lucifer asks Simon.
"Yes Lord, I formed a team of 4 members from the top and I gave them the gear they wanted." Simon replies to Lucifer.
"Great, give them that device too, we can't go unprepared with the princess of the spirit world." Lucifer says with a displeased and evil smile on his face.
Simon with a raised eyebrow "B-by device, you don't mean that soul whisper, do you? My Lord, it is too risky, it disrupts one's soul!" Simon panicked.
Lucifer once again just smiles as a reply to Simon who seems to be in a shock.
*"This is not good. Uriel is a monster, he will slaughter every member of the house that betrays him. If he gets to know that Lord Lucifer is planning something against his daughter. I'm sure it will cause a war with the whole house not just lord Lucifer, also we are not fully prepared to fight these creatures yet"* Simon keeps thinking of the consequences of this meeting.
Lucifer gets stares from the Noble's of other houses who are walking in the balcony along with him towards the meeting hall.
"Is that the Lucifer? The maniac from the so called house of demons? He look like a useless twig to me." A noble from another house 'The house of Rauza(garden)' from Agartha nation wearing a green military outfit talks to his guard regarding Lucifer.
"Yeah, having the brains and strategy is not important. Having the strength is important here heh. The house of Asuras sent this weakling to ask Uriel to be their loyal guardian for the next decade? Pathetic." Another noble from 'the house of Nina(gift/gifted) from Aztec nation in a brown outfit adds fuel to the words of noble from Rauza.
"How dare you both make a mockery of my master? Do you all want a piece of my cumberjung??" Simon says while he takes out a wooden shaft with flails on both ends.
The cumberjung is special weapon, it has two double-ended flail of two sharpened discs attached via a metal chain to a wooden shaft on either side, which is engraved with mouldings for grip.
"What did you say, you damn peasant?! How dare you raise your voice against us?!" The noble from Agartha said angrily as his face grew darker from frowning, looking down on Simon at the same time.
"Simon, let's go, we have things to do rather than bark at this people." Lucifer tells Simon coolly.
*"Hmph, talk as much as you want Lucifer, once we convince Uriel to take our side with a strategy we made, we will destroy you people and I will personally slice you and your peasant into pieces."* The noble from Agartha thinks as he suppresses his anger to tear down Lucifer, who is right in front of him.
First thing as Lucifer and Simon enters the room, Lucifer gets chills down his spine and sweat starts to rolls off his face as he was nervous to see Uriel who is standing right in front of him without saying any words. His dark aura is emitting from his body and his amber like eyes glimmering from inside his hoodie.
*"What happened? Why does he look so serious? Did he figure out our motives?!"* Simon is out of words to define his terror.
"I'm sorry Lucifer, but Simon just broke the iron clad rule of not activating weapons inside the palace, I'm afraid he cannot accompany you anymore inside the meeting hall." Uriel says to Lucifer with a comfortable smile.
The noble from Agartha let's out a little smirk from the corner of his mouth upon hearing Uriel.
"Ah I'm sorry Mr. Uriel. Simon, you can wait outside." Lucifer says and heads inside the room and Simon stays back outside the room, but fear has taken upon him after seeing the behavior of the noble from Agartha.
"The Nobles from different families of earth. I, Uriel welcome you all for the meeting held once every 10 years. It is an honor for me to be with the house of Mutual court, and I would like to hear if the other houses have any task that I can help with for the next 10 years." Uriel said with ease as he welcomes different Nobles of earth from different houses and the meeting begins.
