Eiro and the others continued waiting for a while. It took a whole ten minutes for something to happen, though. The time-freeze field in front of them had suddenly deactivated, and Eiro could sense a change in the flow of magic around the hallway.
"Alright, there we go," the Demon pointed out, looking at his party members, "Let's keep going, but don't-" Eiro started, but was soon interrupted by a sudden event. He had been able to see it happening, even if it occured at a speed that he couldn't physically react to. Space was cut apart and shifted aside.
Eiro found himself in a different space. A large, empty hall. There was just a single door on the other side of the room. The Demon let out an annoyed groan, "Fuck... well, at least I warned them. They should be able to take care of themselves."
