Chapter 331: A Feeling (1/2)

Alex ran away with the man's talisman and read it. He had noticed a few talismans in that there were writings on the talismans that belonged to the participants.

He had come to notice two different sets of writing.

One said [CCHASTWDPH] and another one said [ETWLFEONT].

Alex tried to make sense of the 2 types of talismans and didn't notice anything. His own 2 remaining talismans were of the first variety.

'Is this something random to f*ck with me?' he thought. He gave up on thinking about it for the moment.

Alex ran through some intersections, redoing his runs multiple times cause he ran into dead ends. Finally, he was done with that section of the maze and walked out of it.

”What the?” he thought as he saw the scene ahead.

Unlike the previous times, there wasn't an open space to walk through like the previous times. Instead, in front of him was… himself.

Or more accurately, a reflection of himself. As he walked forward, he saw the walls move as well. When he finally entered that section of the maze, he realized, the walls were mirrors.

He walked ahead slowly and suddenly slammed on a wall that was placed at a 45-degree angle. 'Sh*t, this is going to be hard,' he thought.

He tried walking in another direction and could see nothing but himself in all the walls. So he carefully moved. Dead ends were much harder to return from since he didn't know where the intersections were anymore. He couldn't remember the places like he could for the other mazes.

So he had to rely on intuition now. Thankfully, he had his spiritual sense fully working, so he didn't have to worry about accidentally hitting a wall anymore.

Finally, after nearly 15 minutes of scurrying around like a headless chicken, he managed to get out of there. However, it was simply him getting out of the fire pan and into the fire.

The place in front of him was nothing but fog. He carefully placed a foot inside expecting the whole land to cave in, or some sort of attack to just at him.

However, there was nothing. He carefully walked a bit more and there truly wasn't anything. 'Hmm, so there really isn't anything,' Alex thought as he freely started walking forward.

As he walked more and more, he couldn't help but get the feeling that this was familiar. 'Isn't this just like…' suddenly, his eyes went wide.

He suddenly started to look around with anxiety and confusion in his eyes. He turned his head around to check but no matter where he looked, he couldn't make sense of it.

”Where am I supposed to walk towards?”

He was stuck in a formation, and this was one that took away his sense of direction.
