Chapter 331: A Feeling (2/2)

Alex wandered for a bit but he was still stuck inside the formation. ”What do I do?” he thought. Even his spiritual sense didn't help as there was nothing to look at in the vicinity.

”Screw it,” he thought and came up with an idea. He took his sword and threw it ahead of him, but only a small distance away. He slowly walked towards the sword and stopped with both of his feet stuck together.

He then picked up the sword and without looking anywhere, threw it straight ahead of him. While getting to his sword, his body would try to make him move in another direction, but with the spiritual sense, he knew where he was supposed to walk to.

He found a person in the fog once but didn't dare break his direction as he would probably get lost if he did that. Finally, after repeating that a few dozen times, he hit a wall.

He quickly walked to the sword and realized that he had hit a wall. When he saw where he was, he frowned. He was back in the mirror maze.

Meaning he would have to repeat the same thing for an entire length of the maze. ”F*ck,” he couldn't hate but shout.

He was about to throw the sword when suddenly, he felt a… weird sense that something was calling to him. He couldn't tell what it was, or where it was. What he could tell was the direction it was coming from.

It was behind him. He couldn't tell what this feeling was as it wasn't anything like when the alchemy ingredients called to him, or when his body reacted to materials it wanted.

This was something different, something that felt more… home. 'What's going on?' he thought. He knew for sure this had nothing to do with his knowledge of alchemy or his body, but there was nothing else to him but that.

'Whatever at least it will help me now,' Alex thought and ran straight ahead. He didn't bother with directions or people, as long as the feeling was coming from behind him, he knew where to go.

In under a minute, he reached the other side of the fog and looked at the top. It once again said that he couldn't change his choice of entrance later on.

So he carefully, but in the end randomly, chose an entrance and walked in. When he saw the maze, he couldn't help but be surprised.

”Is this real?” he asked himself. Ahead of him was a straight line for nearly 200 meters. There were no split paths, no intersection, or anything.

From start to finish he could see everything. ”What's the catch?” he thought and slowly placed a foot in. He was expecting vines like the first time to pop out and lock him in place, but nothing happened.

Second foot, third foot. He walked more and more, but nothing happened. ”Haha! There's nothing?” he thought and started running.

He hadn't taken 10 steps into the run when—

BAM

He hit something and fell on his butt. ”Ouch,” he said as he stood up and looked in front of him, but there was nothing there.

”What did I hit?”
