Once the ceremony for a Spirit Heart creation was done, everyone gathered outside the village, as Amethyst and Emerald shared some of their food with them for the trip.
"We wish you good fortune on your battles ahead." Said Amethyst. "I hope you can find your lost friends as well."
"Good luck!" Little Emerald said.
"Thank you for everything again, Amethyst." Palami smiled, sighing. "Without your help, we wouldn't had been able to go out while being as prepared as we are now."
"Yeah, we'll be forever grateful." Asure nodded.
"If you ever need our help, take this." Raito gave the Spiritian man a rainbow-colored piece of metal in the shape of an eye.
"What is this?" Wondered Amethyst.
"A special communication magical device, speak to it while imbuing it with some sort of energy, and it should be able to contact with us, you can speak with us from long distances." Said Celica.
"Like a long-ranged telepathy, I see!" Amethyst seemed interested. "Thank you for such a gift. Though, if possible, I wish to not annoy you anymore with my village, you must be busy on your own."
"Still, if something happens here, we'll come again, even if it takes a while." Truhan said. "We owe you a lot, and we'll pay the debt when you need us once more."
"Hahh... You're all too grateful." Amethyst sighed. "Where could your friends be now?"
"We sense them far away, into the southwest, above the skies." Celica crossed her arms. "We'll have to fly for that, thankfully, with the Spirit Energy we acquired, it shouldn't be too hard."
"You'll cross the Sea of Clouds without a vessel?" Amethyst asked in surprise. "But it might be dangerous..."
"We don't have much of an option for now." Meiji sighed. "None of us has the knack for crafting flying vessels either, so we'll have to do with how we are right now."
"Well, if this could be of some help, have this." Said Amethyst, giving them a small jewel of blue color.
Raito grabbed it and it instantly projected a large map of the skies, with many floating islands. Everyone was amazed of the amazing magical technology that the Spiritians used for their daily lives, which they could easily craft with their own hands.
"This is my Map Crystal, I've kept it for a long time, my ancestors used to travel the sea of clouds over enormous vessels, use it to guide yourselves." Said Amethyst with a smile. "It is my last gift to you all."
"A map!" Kizuato was surprised. "This'll surely help out! Oh? Celica, you said they were over there? There's a huge island in that place." He checked the map.
"T-That island is...!" Amethyst was surprised. "It is territory of the Empire of the High Heavens... If you ever dare go there, be careful. If your friends are there, they might have been captured as prisoners."
"This is getting a bit exciting." Raito smiled. "Time to strike back against those bastards!"
"Don't get too ahead of yourself, Raito." Palami sighed. "For now, we should hunt Spirit Beasts on the way, so we can further develop our Spirit Hearts. The stronger we can be, the better. I have a bad feeling about that place, that wasp woman might be there."
"Hmm, well, let's not waste more time, let's get to it. Everyone, I'll carry you." Truhan said, as he quickly grabbed everyone with his huge hands. "Thank you for everything, Amethyst!"
FLAAASH!
With a huge leap, Truhan flew into the skies, using his flames to propel himself across the sea of clouds. Amethyst and Emerald waved their hands as they saw the blazing titan fly far away.
"They're gone already!" Emerald said. "Wow, that guy was really huge, uncle!"
"Yeah..." Amethyst said. "I wonder if I should had tell Meiji about his spirits... Or, perhaps, it is better if he discovers what they have become by himself."

(Kireina's POV)
FLAAAASH!
Our spaceship pierced through the spatial and dimensional layers, traveling from Genesis to the Spiritual Plane. Our objective? Stop their invasion into Genesis, rescue our friends that were abducted inside, and probably defeat whoever is behind the invasion to begin with.
And the moment we landed in the Spiritual Plane, our surroundings changed completely. From the Astral Road of Genesis, filled with countless "fake" stars and the cosmos itself, we landed on a world of eternal clouds and endless skies.
A beautiful Sea of Clouds could be seen from all areas, expanding endless across this world. My eyes gazed and found out thousands of floating islands. There didn't seem to be any surface in this Plane, it was all just floating lands amidst an endless bright world of skies and clouds.
There were layers to the skies, whatsoever, and we could see above us several layers of them, higher heavens perhaps. The moment we appeared in here, however, we all instantly felt something.
Thousands of powerful eyes all looking directly towards us. Not only must they have felt our presences, but also the powerful presence of the Origin System, a power that distorted reality itself.
[Several powerful entities have set their gazes on you.]
[The Dimensional Universal Ruler [Supreme Governor of the Spiritual Plane] is looking at you while squinting their eyes.]
[Spiritual Energy of very high grade of quality has begun infecting your body and that of your allies.]
[Damage has been neutralized.]
[Your body has begun to naturally absorb and assimilate the energy.]
I felt a great amount of Spiritual Energy flowing across my body. It was first rainbow-colored, but then seemed to grow corrupted by my own Chaos Physique, and turned into something that could be called "Chaos Spirit Energy".
"Oh? Is everyone feeling alright?" I asked, I had brought only a few people inside the spaceship, keeping most of my family inside of my Divine Realm to keep them safe from whatever we could get hit with as we landed here.
"Y-Yeah, it's alright. But the amount of energy in the air is immense..." Zehe sighed in relief.
"Urgh, my head is spinning a bit... Guuuuhh..." Rimuru's eyes were spinning.
"Brontes?!" Suddenly, Nesiphae screamed as I looked towards Brontes' direction.
"W-What's this?! Argh...! M-My body!"
She was crystalizing?!
"BRONTES!"
I immediately ran to help her.
