Chapter 64

"This maze is a sham," Kyoji declared, his words sending a ripple of astonishment through the group.

"What do you mean, a sham?" Klein questioned, his brow furrowing in confusion.

His question echoed the sentiments of the others. They all turned towards Kyoji, eager for an explanation.

"Exactly what I said – the maze is a fake. There's no actual exit. Even if we try every single door, we'll just end up back in this central room," Kyoji stated, his voice calm but firm, radiating an air of certainty.

"Are you suggesting it's some sort of illusion?" Hana asked, her brow furrowed in thought.

"I don't think so, everything about the maze feels real, tangible. I doubt it's an illusion in the traditional sense." Kyoji replied.

"But you just called it a fake," Nick interjected, clearly perplexed by Kyoji's contradictory statements.
