The [Original Compass] started to work after Philip wanted to search for Mei'er's origin
The directional rings started to rotate in all axes around the sphere. The x-ring rotated and pointed 45° towards the north, the y-ring rotated and pointed towards 2° towards the north, and the z-ring rotated and pointed 2° towards the east. This means that the target is towards northeast and they could probably be a few meters above ground
The time meters had their indicators at the far right, center, and far left of the past, present, and future respectively. This means that the target is in the correct period of time
This also means that the ⟨⟨ Origin Seeker ⟩⟩ wasn't wrong to send him in the present on the Spirit World
The cube is still the same
The realm wheel wasn't spinning as it indicated that they are in the correct realm, meaning the Spirit World, and the both universal dials are still on number one, meaning they are in the correct universe, their own universe, the Golden Timeline
'I see... So this is the right period... But that's strange though, why still the present?'
'Maybe her origin is located somewhere here? Like her mother or something'
'Hmmm, you're right. Maybe the compass is pointing us to her mother?'
'Could be. Also, your power over fate might have affected Origin Seeker and this is the cause'
'That's true... My aim is to always control their fates after all'
'So, should we get going?'
'Not yet... I'm actually interested in these flowers... Scan!'
『 Hard Cracked Blooms 』
『 Parasitic Flowerings 』
『 Decomposite Flowers 』
『 Dead Carbonized Petals 』
『 Mossy Leaflings 』
『 Wooden Blossoms 』
『 Branching Twigler Orchids 』
『 Cambium Bloomers 』
『 Aery Polens 』
『 Bouncing Quadratic Petals 』
『 Floating Sprayers 』
『 Twinkling Windings 』
『 Sidewinding Florals 』
『 Soiled Lilies 』
『 Gravelled Petaling Glitters 』
『 Sprouted Grassy Pistils 』
『 Rooted Groundings 』
『 Baked Bark Orchids 』

『 Shadow Hiders 』
"Wow!"
Philip exclaimed in interest and awe after a Sidewinding Floral slid passed by his head
"Interesting names..."
Tenshi commented as she adored the Gravelled Petaling Glitters near her feet
'Interesting... Before we go... Emily...'
「 Yes? 」
'Knowing the Spirit World, the time ratio in this world and in the material world is different, right?'
「 Yes, that's right... The time ratio of the Spirit World to Earthenmana is-- 」
『 You are experiencing extreme time dilation 』
'Hm?'
『 Time dilation: 1:8766 』
'Ha?!'
「 Time ratio is one year in the Spirit World is one hour in Earthenmana 」
'Then that means... For every 2 hours and 26 minutes that we stay here... 1 second passes in Earthenmana'
'That's a very wide time ratio'
'Why is it like this? I didn't expect it for this wide'
Philip and Tenshi were speaking through their minds. They looked weird from a third person perspective since they only stare in empty space while glancing at each other sometimes
They have to practice to act normally because other people, or even observative and sensitive people, might notcie that there's something suspicious about them
「 Mysticism Age 」
'Ah! I see... Mana has spread through the Spirit World also? This is is Earth's Spirit World, right?'
「 Yes. All worlds have their own respective Spirit Worlds 」
'What was the initial time ratio before the Mysticism Age?'
「 One day on Spirit World is one hour in Earth 」
'What the?! The difference is astronomical! Well... I guess we should go then'
'Yes! I'm excited!"
"Heh..."
Philip looked at Tenshi from her excitement in adventuring. He gave a slight giggle from her happiness
They then started walking across the ground and the floating [Original Compass] and its parts began to contract towards the box. The time meters, dimensional indicator, and realm wheel was sucked back in the box and their respective results were displayed on the box
The time meters was displayed on the surface of the lower half of the box, adjacent and opposite of the upper half opening. The dimensional indicator was displayed on a circular screen under the upper half of the box. It's showing a three dimensional cube on the screen. The realm wheel was attached back inside of the compass itself where there is a glass window for allowance to see through
The spherical locator stayed above the opened [Original Compass] and kept on pointing towards the relative northeast
'By the way, are we going to take our time here?'
Tenshi asked in curiosity
'Ehh... It depends on what we encounter. We might even stay a year as we get jailed or catch the attention of all beings in the Spirit World and they overpower us'
'But we can take them on, right?'
'Yes, of course! No one in the Spirit World could match us. Unless there are powerful spirits that we're not aware of. There are Spirit Kings, Spirit Emperors, and Spirit Gods after all'
'Mastery stages?'
'No, actual beings of those ranks. They rule a specific amount of spirits and depending on their power and authority, their respective spirits will get empowered'
'I see... Are we just gonna walk to the location?'
'Hm, should we just fly there?'
'Flying could be dangerous and it could attract attention since I have to transform to my Holy Angel form to fly'
'That's fine, I'll fly instead and carry you'
'Ooooo! I like that idea. How are you going to carry me?'
'Here...'
Philip walked towards Tenshi and bent his body down. He placed his right arm behind her knees while he held her back with his left hand and arm
'Hup!'
Philip carried Tenshi in a princess carry
'...'
Tenshi became excited her heart beat faster. She held Philip's gray sleeveless hoodie by his chest with her left hand. The white ring shines from the reflection of the sunlight
'This is exciting!'
'Well... You always fly by yourself. At least this time, you'll get to experience being the heroine or female lead of a story'
'What do you mean?'
'Like the ones in the movies? A superhero or the male lead with the ability to fly carries the female lead through the skies, across the city, and above the cloud'
'Ah! Yes! At least just this once... Let me be a normal girl'
Tenshi gave a warm and solemn smile
'I'll grant you that wish'
Philip gave a genuine smile that he rarely show from other people, even with his friends and previous family
The [Blood Wings] erected from his back and spread apart wide. His body began to glow with violet light as a violet aura wrapped his body from his hero title. His eyes are glowing with violet light surrounding his golden iris
Philip bent his knees and jumped up as the [Blood Wings] forcefully flapped downwards. He darted vertically, past the floating flowers and branches, until he passed the roof of the forest. He continued upwards until he almost reached the clouds
"Wow!"
"Woooaaah!"
Both Philip and Tenshi exclaimed in awe after seeing the entire area from the sky
Beside the large area of the forest, there were hundreds of more bigger floating flowers. In the forest in the distance, he could see a settlement since there were wooden houses in tree tops and hundreds of tree houses. That place looked pretty advanced by how eccentric but intricate constructions. There are also bridges that connects each building
Philip's stomach became excited because he has a prediction or guess on what beings were living there
But more importantly, the compass changed as they went to the sky
Of course, Philip faced the correct direction and the x-ring pointed directly north, the y-ring is pointed towards the north at -10°, and the z-ring is pointed at the zenith, directly straight up, since the third direction has been eliminated by Philip facing at the correct direction in the x-axis
Although, the z-ring occasionally teeters left and right, indicating that the target is moving left and right. Same as the x-ring since both axes are fairly relative
'Shall we go?'
'Yes!'
Philip and Tenshi smiled. Philip then curved his body and the [Blood Wings] flapped backwards and he darted forwards through the sky. A sonic boom was generated after he broke the sound barrier for a quick second
The sonic boom reached the roof of the forest and only rustled the leaves and shook the large floating flowers
Philip and Tenshi quickly went towards the horizon
~~~
Meanwhile, somewhere in the Spirit World, where ten beings are sitting around a round table by chance were talking
"Did everyone feel that?"
A person that had his arms crossed and eyes closed suddenly opened his red fierce eyes and abruptly turned his head to the left
He has red scales running across his cheeks, jawlines, and temples. His red eyes had fierce yellow slits and he has long ruffly black and red hair. He also has a two pairs of intimidating white horns on the side of his head that goes backwards
He has reptilian arms with red scales and brown claws. Red light glows in between the scales that gives a sinister feeling. He also has the same appearance on his legs and a long reptilian tail that looks like a fused triple tridents
He is a Red Dragon that transformed into his humanoid form. Out of all the spiritual beings present in the round table, he has the most intimidating presence
His identity is the Red Dragon, representative of the Spirit Dragons of the Dragons of Refugee in the Spirit World, who has a name of Fulkran
"Hmph!!"
A giant with four arms harrumphed and stood up from his very large seat. Once he stood up straight, he also looked towards his left
His two lower pairs of arms are resting to his side while his hands are clenched. His two upper pairs of arms are crossed on his chest. He is bald with long luscious white beard. He has brown eyes
He has an incredibly muscular body while only wearing some kind of hard leather ripped shorts and giant boots. He also has white cloth wrapped around his shoulders like some kind of small cape. He has a height of 500 meters
His identity is the Tetra Giant, representative of Mantle Giants of the Gigantic Giants in the Spirit World, who has a name of Adystyl
"What is that?"
"What do you feel?"
Two frail-looking girls asked fear because two of the most powerful beings in the round table was very alarmed
The first girl is an elf princess with a fitted green tunic, brown leather skirt that's tied together like frills, black under leggings, and brown fluffy boots. She looks like an ordinary elvish hunter from fantasy stories. She has emerald green eyes
Of course, she has double braided yellow hair, and a green gem on an amulet that's tied around her forehead like a necklace and head accessory. She also has some kind of aegis on her shoulder that some kind of object has to attach on it. She also has metallic gloves that has light fading in and out
She is the Elven Princess, representing the Elven Royalty of the Elven Races in the Spirit World, who has a name of Suzangulvurinariririnelieguraziel Amenethystiliar Amy Merrywood
The other girl is a fairy with three pairs of transparent colorful wings, short yellow orange spiky hair with two long side bangs. She wears a black spiky dress, white stilettos, and white opera gloves
She is the Fairy Princess, representing the Fae Nobility of the Faerie Continent in the Spirit World, who has a name of Lily Tinkerbell
Of course, both of them has small to flat chests, like the stereotypical ones in fantasy stories for some reason
"I also felt it... We have to go now and follow it! This is urgent... This has never happened for at least a couple hundred and thousands of years"
That's at least 12,500 years in the material world, not including the increasing time dilation for when the transition to Mysticism Age started. The years relative on Earth would've reduced drastically since four years and six months has passed since the start of the Mysticism Age
So, reducing 4 years from 12,500 years from the passed time in the Mysticism Age will translate to 35,088 years on in the Spirit World for just 4 years in Earthenmana
In other words, from the 300,000 years that passed in the Spirit World, about one fourths of that time has passed in just 4 years in Earthenmana, compared to the original 12,500 years in Earth before the Mysticism Age
In comparison, 12,496 years on Earth translated to 264,912 years in the Spirit World, whereas only 4 years on Earthenmana translated to 35,088 years on the Spirit World
