After thinking for a while, Aion honestly thought that Seris and Arlana won't be able to endure that up close… Aion also thought that he would need to change his class and focus all his points on resistance to endure it.

"I guess this one will do. It is close to reaching the max level as well… but I can't risk canceling the death knights," Aion thought and then sighed. "I really need to master the Necromancer class soon."
All of a sudden, Aion had an idea and then decided to use the relics. Much to his surprise, several mirrors appeared in front of him, and the one right in front of them was shining as well.
"So, it is like that, huh… someone is trying to mess with the time in this timeline?" Seris asked.
"It appears so," Aion replied. "Anyway, we are going, so get ready since the last time the draconic wanderer caused me a lot of trouble. I don't know if the same person will be trying to mess with us, but it is better to assume that it will be harder."
Aion didn't make any items with his blood yet, so Arlana will have a hard time if the enemy focuses on her. Even Seris will since the level of the enemies skyrocketed later, but at least her magic was more combat focused.
Without wasting time, they crossed the shining mirror, and then they found themselves standing in the same region as before. However, the ice tornado looked smaller in the distance, and the cold was weaker as well.
"I guess it makes sense… since the tornado was created thanks to the frozen Tyrant's presence, and he grows stronger with the passage of time," Seris said.
"Do you know if there is any dungeon nearby?" Aion asked.
"No, why do you ask?" Seris furrowed her eyebrows.
"Just asking," Aion said and then used the relics again, and then a beam of light was pointed to the North of the region. "... What is in that direction?"
"Hmm? I am not sure… this is entire region is too cold for people to live in. There shouldn't be any village, town, or city two thousand kilometers in all directions. That is why we live relatively close to this place," Seris replied. "I am not entirely sure, but I don't think that any civilization existed here five hundred years ago."
Aion rubbed his chin thoughtfully. Since Arlana didn't say anything, he assumed that nothing had happened to the frozen Tyrant or he didn't do anything five hundred years in the future. Besides, considering how the ice tornado lost time, it was clear that they were in the past. The question was, how much further in the past?
In any case, they decided to fly toward the North and see what would happen. Most likely, someone was trying to do something to that primordial creature as well for one reason or another other, and it was better to prevent it from gaining favor with the frozen Tyrant. Maybe he will also dispel the ice tornado in the future for them.
As they began to fly, there was nothing around aside from relatively small mountains covered in snow and white forests for the same reason. It looked like it snows all year around in that area, so it seemed that Seris was right.
"I guess it will be hard to tell at which period of time we are… unless…" Aion said when he thought of something.
"Unless… what?" Seris asked.
"You want us to send us back to the hideout of the family, right?" Arlana asked.
"Yep… still, I don't think that it is a good idea to split up here," Aion furrowed his eyebrows. "The enemy might be waiting for us to give them such a chance. For now, let's just focus on finding what lies ahead in the North."
While Aion could keep making the earth room fly, he summoned the draconic wanderer again since the cold was bearable. Still, he told Seris not to use the flying rune since they might pass the area that the relics showed them.
Still, it took them two hours to finally find traces of something in the region… they found a lot of smoke ahead, and it was pretty concentrated.
"In that direction is… a volcano, I am sure… but I don't think it had ever become Active," Seris said while frowning.
"Come to think of it, while the frozen tyrant never woke up in the history that I know of, that volcano was supposed to erupt and destroy a lot of things in hundreds of kilometers since it gave birth to a dungeon that exploded," Arlana added.
"The world ended, and the frozen Tyrant never woke up?" Aion asked, visibly shocked.
"Yes… my guess is that they didn't find humans worth saving," Arlana explained and then looked away.
"I killed more than them, right?" Aion asked. "I guess that would explain."
"Yes… you also killed the wind maiden," Arlana replied. "She was supposed to be completely pacific, and she just erected a wind barrier to protect some countries… you didn't like that and destroyed her whole base."
"I see. It is useful to know what I might do if I become grumpy… that will help me control myself better," Aion said.
"Grumpy, that is more than just a little level of grumpiness," Seris said and then shrugged.
