Chapter 521 521: A New Journey
"It\'s just been such a long time since I met them, I thought I\'ll visit them once, and maybe bring a few gifts for them."
Gabriel didn\'t tell Avilia and the rest about what he was really going to do. However, unlike Zena who was kept in the dark, Avilia had already heard many things about Gabriel\'s past when she was a prisoner of the Temple of Time.
She knew what happened to Gabriel in the past. As for the so-called friends, she could also take a guess as to who he was talking about.
The friends were in essence his true enemies who he hated the most.
Avilia didn\'t know just how dangerous this trip was for Gabriel, but she couldn\'t do anything. Since Gabriel didn\'t ask her to go with him, it just meant she was too weak. She couldn\'t even stand against the Temple of Time after all.
Amongst the group that Gabriel was taking with him, one was a goddess while the other was a demigoddess. It was already a group made from three of the four strongest people in this place, excluding Alion.
Zena was unaware of Gabriel\'s past since everyone had kept it a secret from her.
Moreover, Avilia was always accompanying Zena, also to make sure that she didn\'t accidentally hear anything outside since almost everyone else in this world knew of Gabriel\'s past.
In the end, Zena was completely ignorant and actually believed Gabriel\'s words. Since it was only a short trip to meet friends, she didn\'t worry too much.
She stepped closer to Gabriel. With her left hand, she grabbed his right hand and raised it.
As for her right hand, it was already clenched into a fist. After raising Gabriel\'s right hand, she also raised her right hand, revealing a six leaf clover in her hand.
She placed the six leaf clover in Gabriel\'s hands.
"A six leaf clover?" Gabriel frowned, slightly confused, not understanding what it meant.
Even though it was pretty rare to find it, but for someone like him, there was no meaning in a few leaves.
"There\'s a human saying that a six leaf clover signifies great luck and longevity. It\'s very rare." Alion could notice that Gabriel was confused. Since he wasn\'t here for the last thousand years, he hadn\'t heard many of human superstitions. So he took the lead to explain.
Gabriel only gazed at the six leaf clover in his hands, in the end, revealing a smile.
He kept his sister\'s gift safely. Even though he hadn\'t known about the superstitions behind a six leaf clover, he knew how rare it was to find one.
Still, his sister had found one in the first week itself. He still remembered how happy she looked, bragging about the clover she found. It was as if she had found a treasure for herself.
Her reaction had really intrigued him, since it was interesting to think how humans could find happiness in such small things. However, he hadn\'t bothered asking her why this clover was so special to her. It was only now that he found out.
He was slightly taken aback to think that she had given this to him, when it was the only one he had.
In the end, he placed his hand on his little sister\'s head. "I\'ll make sure to bring it back safely..."
After a few seconds, he retracted his hands, looking at Jia and the Goddess of Nature. His smile had disappeared, returning to his calm expressions.
"We are leaving now." He didn\'t look back twice as he turned around, and left Avilia, Alion and Zena behind.
His robe waved with the gentle wind as a portal opened before him.
Jia and the Goddess of Nature stepped forward, standing behind him.
Even though the spatial portal looked like a normal portal, the Goddess of Nature could see that it wasn\'t ordinary by any means! She could see many intricate elemental lines, forming a structure that even she hadn\'t seen in her life.
It was as if the portal was cutting through the space time continuum, connecting to the Upper Realm.
Usually, it was impossible to connect to the Upper Realm without permission from the Upper Realm. However, Gabriel had forcefully opened the void. It wasn\'t his first time doing this either. .
As soon as the portal connected to the Upper Realm, an unnatural amount of energy rushed out from the portal. It was the energy and aura of the upper realm, which was multiple times purer than the energy on earth before Gabriel had turned this into his domain.
The Goddess of Nature felt so refreshed, basking in this strange yet familiar energy. She could understand why the Goddess of Light was so eager to go to the Upper Realm.
"It\'s stable. We can enter." After the portal was stabilized, Gabriel entered the void, disappearing into the darkness.
Carrying her heavy sword on her shoulders, Jia also entered the void.
The Goddess of Nature was the last person. She took one last glance behind her, gazing at Alion. "Please take care of my brother. He\'s somewhat stupid, so if he doesn\'t listen, you can teach him a lesson. But please, don\'t kill him."
She knew the flaws of her brother the best. She understood how he was like an entitled child with arrogance filled in his bones because of her position. However, she also didn\'t want a situation like what happened with Gabriel again.
Thus, she granted Alion the permission to train the guy to at least improve his attitude. As long as her brother was alive, it didn\'t matter if he suffered a few losses. .
After telling Alion everything she had to, she also stepped inside the void.
As if the void was only made for three people. As soon as the Goddess of Nature stepped inside the void, the portal closed on its own, as if collapsing.
The strange energy that had rushed inside was still left behind, but the portal was gone.
Alion looked at the empty space, wondering what the future was going to be l
ike. In his eyes, this was the most dangerous battle for Gabriel, in a world that was much different from earth.
He also wanted to accompany Gabriel, but he couldn\'t. Someone had to stay behind to protect this place as well. In the end, she could only wish Gabriel luck for his new journey.
