"So where was I supposed to go now?" Max mumbled. It had been a few years if he counted the time in the trial. Even though only 7 months had passed in the real world.

Max closed his eyes and went into his spirit world looking for the map which he received from Kaiser a few months back.

"Where is it?" Max searched through his belongings which only contained food, ores, his weapons, and armors.

"Found it!"

Max finally found the map and as he turned around to leave, the gang was already onto him.

"Ah! Not now, guys. I am not here to play now. How about we do this later?" Max struggled as he took onto the three cubs, one centipede and a Sera.

The spirit world had not been accessible to Max in the trials. But he got chances to meet Sera and the groups during the break between the two trials.
