After rushing back to the Different Dimension Airship, everyone gathered inside — Yuya, Yuni, Yuzu, Katrina, Vivian, Yusho, Sarah, Ryu, Johan, Rio, Shark, Ruka, Rua, Reisho, Reiji, Reira, and Rebecca. The room hummed with quiet tension as they circled around the glowing Duel Disk display. In the center, Number 60 shimmered in and out of visibility, its golden frame pulsing with light as though it were alive.
Yuzu leaned closer, eyes narrowing at the card. "Why is it glowing?"
"I'm not sure," Yuni replied, studying the flickering energy around the hologram. "However, it's not normal. Number 60 might be trying to tell us something."
Before anyone could respond, a soft ripple of light filled the cabin. Three radiant figures — Astral, Enna, and Celestial — materialized before them. Their presence immediately changed the atmosphere, turning the air still and heavy with a faint otherworldly hum.
Rebecca stepped forward, gripping her hands together. "Did you guys know something?"
Astral's gaze lingered on the glowing card. "Number 60 might be trying to tell us to go to the Astral World."
The words sent a ripple of surprise through the room. "The Astral World?" several voices echoed at once.
Yuya turned to Astral, his expression tense. "Why the Astral World? What could it want from us there?"
Astral's tone softened, but his eyes stayed serious. "We don't know for certain. But within Number 60, I can sense Eliphas' power. It's faint, yet undeniable. I assume that Eliphas might want to meet us."
Rebecca blinked, caught between confusion and concern. "Eliphas wants to meet us?"
Celestial exchanged a glance with Astral and Enna. "We don't know... But we will need to go to the Astral World. This Different Dimension Ship is capable of reaching it."
Without another word, the three Astral World beings moved to the ship's control panels. Their bodies glowed with shifting streaks of light as they channeled energy through the system. The vessel began to vibrate, its engines roaring with an unfamiliar tone — deeper, resonant, and ethereal.
Everyone braced themselves as the ship lifted into a swirling blue rift that opened ahead. The world outside warped into a cascade of stars and light. Metal groaned, the floor shook, and a blinding glow swallowed everything in sight.
Yuzu gripped the railing, her voice barely audible over the noise. "Hold on tight!"
A final surge of light consumed the ship as it crossed dimensions. Then, suddenly, the turbulence faded.
When their vision cleared, they were surrounded by a sea of luminous clouds and floating crystal structures — a realm of pure light and infinity. The ship had made it.
They had arrived safely in the Astral World.
"So this is the Astral World..." Reisho murmured, stepping forward as everyone gazed at the breathtaking landscape.
The endless sky shimmered like liquid crystal, with countless orbs of light drifting through the air. Shining towers of translucent stone floated upside down in the distance, reflecting the stars beneath their feet.
"This place is beautiful..." Rio whispered, her eyes wide with awe.
"I agree..." Ruka added softly, reaching out as if to touch the glowing mist that surrounded them. "It's like we're standing inside another world entirely."
