Adrian didn't encounter any more challenges in the corridor. He was able to pass through without anymore difficulty.
He felt relieved when he reached the end and didn't encounter any more mist puppets. He continued his way through the maze, wary of any more challenges that could be waiting for him.
He had been in the maze for a few days by now. Even though he didn't know where he was, he knew he had travelled a long distance already. He couldn't be far from the exit.
This realisation made him nervous and excited. His mind drifted towards the people he followed into the mystic realm.
What was their situation currently? Had they made it through the maze? Were they even alive? These questions bounced around his mind as he walked slowly through the maze.
ian launched himself forward, targeting the puppet on the left. His sword slashed in a high arc, only for the puppet to parry with ease.
That was fine. He hadn't intended to land the blow.
