Several months later.
The sea area to the east of the Ouden Continent is called the Sea of Stars, also known as the White Sea, due to the existence of tens of thousands of islands.
To its south lies the Aphotic Sea, where darkness prevails day and night. Although the Sea of Stars is the smallest among the Nine Seas of the Claud World, its area still surpasses that of the Eastern Four Kingdoms.
Suddenly, over an island that appeared uninhabited and tranquil, a massive number of storm clouds materialized, gathering rapidly within minutes.
The sky turned pitch-black in an instant, as gale-force winds howled ceaselessly, with lightning flickering within the dark storm clouds. The wind's roar, resembling an angry shout, echoed through the air.
On the formerly deserted island, a semi-transparent barrier materialized, covering more than half of the island. It was crystal clear and contained immense energy to withstand the crazy storm from beyond the sky.
