CHAPTER 11: Maze of wanders

He put down his book and look at me with an emotionless stare "is it just you?" he took a sip from his cup "There would be more, I think" I answered him and fixing my clothes "you think?" he took his cup down and gestured me to sit at the empty chair in front of him, I gladly took a sit.

A few minutes went by and then the door opened. Zagreus and Ashir were in the front followed by the others. "Well, then shall we start" Damon stood up and pulled a book out of a book shelf. He opened it and everything in the room changed. We're all in the middle of a garden maze.

"Here will be your taste, all you have to do is get out of this maze" he yawned "well, best of luck future guards, I'll be wait for you all or what's left of you" he yawned and vanish in front of us. I turned to Zagreus and the others but they weren't there anymore. I started walking inside the maze, as I keep on walking it feels as if the way was narrowing. I stop walking and turned left then right, then right again, and so on and on.

I went back to the first place that I was in and I saw one of the boys looking at the ground and mumbling something to his self. He turned and look at me, his eyes were wide and red, he let out a creepy smile to me. He swings his sword to me almost cutting my neck but I quickly dodge it and kick him hard on his stomach, he moves back a little but he didn't stop attacking me, he swing his sword from left, right, and towards by body trying to pierce me and hitting my vital points.

I took out my sword and block his every single attack on me, the creepy smile on his face never faded away but it grew more and more. As he was about to my heart, I move to my right and kick him on his face. I quickly back away from him, blood spilled out of his mouth but he didn't seem to feel tired at all. He stands up straight and kept on smiling at me.

I saw that there was a mark of the dead on his neck. It already happened, you got to be kidding me. He launched himself to me again striking his sword to my neck. I swing my sword and hit his sword making it fly away from his hand.

I swing my sword to him cutting his neck and making his head fell on the ground but his body is standing still in front of me. A black smoke came out of his body and warp it self around me. I struggle to get myself out but it was no use. This thing is every strong. It spoke to me in words I couldn't understand. Another one of them came and both of them turned towards me.

Oh no I'm not gonna be one of your vessels you, you wander. I open the box that I was carrying and a blue light came from it making the two wanders get suck inside the box. I drop down to the ground. I got up and took the box, my hands were shaking as I closed it. I carried it and walk back inside the maze.

If someone were to kill another person, what would they feel? Will they feel sad? happy? regret? I didn't feel any emotion when I killed that boy. I felt empty. I didn't feel anything. This is weird. Is this how it should be? Nothing to feel.

I kept on walking and saw a door in front of me. I opened the door and went inside. I saw my friends in front of me having a smile on their faces. I took out my sword again. All of them came at me and attack me and again I killed them, but it wasn't even them. I opened the box again and closed it. I kept on walking inside the dark tunnel, I found a door and opened it. I came back to the same place again. I slap myself to wake up me up from this trance. I calmed myself down and look up to the sky. I mustn't get affected by this place.

I don't wanna become one of the wanders here. I sat down on the ground and think. If I keep on going in the maze then I will just go in circles in the maze. This maze will mess with my feelings and how I will think. The only way out of this maze is up. I look at the stars and found the pattern that gives out direction on how to get out of here. WAIT WHY DIDN'TI THINK OF THIS FROM THE START? Dang it, I'm so stupid. I pouted my mouth and got up. I stomp my feet as I was walking to the direction of the stars.

As I was going to make a turn, a bunch of wanders all look at me. They came to attack me but I opened the box and all of them got suck in. I yawned. Closed the box again. I wonder how many souls this thing has, it better be enough to get that sword, in the original novel. One of the boys was the one who found this when Zagreus killed one of the boys in the second room, but due to me there I think that didn't happened.

I feel ashamed to give this box to a side character that only got this because it was pretty. He ended up using this anyway, but didn't get to use the sword because Zagreus took it from him because it holds the power to even kill the gods. The soul eater. I walk into the maze for a while follow the directions of the star.

I saw one of the boys fighting a wander, he looks terrified and scared. Should I help him? It's not really my problem, I don't want anymore opponents. Oh, his almost going to die. If I don't help him my conscience will eat up. I signed and walk towards him. Now that I'm almost near him this is the boy that got mad at me in the second room, I opened the box and the wander soul got suck inside the it.

"You, okay?" I help him stand up, he didn't take my hand and got up on his own "I had it under my control, why did you have to meddle?" he looks into my eyes with annoyance. Wow the audacity to say that to me, I was the one who help you out and now your angry at me for this?! Ungrateful little pine. "But I'll forgive you for your annoying action since you have a good-looking face" he leaned in closer to my face and a sword flew in between us.

He back away from me "mommy is cheating on daddy, awwww" I heard Ashir voice, I turned to him and he have a huge smile on his face "you could have hit my face, you know?" I said to him and pouted my mouth "sorry, sorry, I was just kidding, stop looking like 3-year-old child with that face of yours" he walks up to me and examined my face "what are you making a fuss about? There isn't even a single scratch on your face" he said to me and crossed his arms, just as I was going to say something blue fog came at us. "Cover your nose, don't inhale the fog" I said to them.

[ You are not affected by the toxic fog due to immunity in poison.]

This gas, that means that he's nearby. I look at Ashir and the other boy both of them are still holding their breaths. "Follow me" I run towards where the fog was coming from and I stop at the two paths I signalled both them to go in that path and both of them run to it. I push one brick on the wall and another wall slide down making the other path not visible anymore. I walk to the other path where the fog gets stronger and stronger.

I saw black flowers growing from the walls. I pick two flowers and put them on my pocket. I kept on walking and the fog gets thicker by the minute, I keep getting deeper in the path. I finally saw it the king of wanders, killian. His dark blue eyes meat mine. A lot of wanders came out from the dark and surrounded me.

[Killian information:

If the Killian where to be killed, the demon lord will come after your head. His powers are to controlling wanders, poisonous fog, and soul catcher.]

Why is there only a little information about this thing? Oh yeah, I got writers block writing this chapter, so I just put what ever I could think of and then I fallen asleep. Wanders came at me and attack me all at once while I was lost at my thought. I opened the box and all the wanders that were going to attack me is being suck inside the box. The eyes of the Killian glow bright blue and it raise it's hand to me.

I smirk because I know he will do this; he can't defeat me with his puppets so he resorts in taking my soul instead "Mirh!" Mirh appeared above me with her two large red wings that have the color of blood, her skin is white like snow, she really is beautiful.

This how I imagine her to look like "How dare a mere servant of a demon threatened my contractor by taking his soul!" her voice echoed throughout the hallway. "Mirh don't kill him okay" I called out to her and she just nodded in response she raises her hand and snap her fingers large red like shards came at the Killian and pierce its shadow body and instantly the Killian was now laying on the floor.

The wanders all fell to the ground and got suck in the box, I pick up the box and placed it near the Killian and sure enough bit by bit the Killian also got stuck inside the box, I put my sword in the box and closed it.

"What are you doing?" Mirh asked behind my back "secret no clue" I answered her and a few minutes a bright red light came inside the box and it was gone in an instant. I open the box once again; I took out my sword and the box dissolve into dust.

[Congrasolations, you have obtained soul eater]

The ability of the sword is to slain, absorb the soul of those who have been killed by the sword and kill any kind of opponents even if it is a god.]

"THE SOUL EATER?!" she yelled out "shhh, keep your voice down will you" I said to her and started walking deeper into the path "HOW? WHY?" she followed while still floating "secret no clue" kept on walking in the path until I reached the dead end. Huh? Shouldn't this be where the other exist is? Why isn't it here? Did I make a wrong turn? Why is it that bit by bit my novel is changing? Maybe it's me. "Mirh can you teleport me out of the maze?" I asked her "why should I?" she crossed her arms and leaned her face close to mine "because I have candy" I answered her and took out a pack of candies of my pocket.

She looks at the candies and drool at the sight of it, she wiped her saliva from her mouth and look at me "ehem, since you beg me to, I'll do it" she instantly took the candies out of my hand and started to eat it one by one, she snaps her fingers and we were already at the exit of the maze I saw Zagreus, Ashir, and that arrogant boy from earlier. Zagreus look at my direction and rolled his eyes at me. Why this ride little potato, that's all you have to do, no are you okay, how are you. Wow.

"I thought you were a goner" Ashir yelled out to me and wave at me "can they see you?" I whispered to Mirh "no, he can" she pointed to Damon that is sitting on a chair and drinking tea. "I'm going now before I get caught" she said to me and disappeared. I walk up to them "You wish" I said to Ashir and smirk "that sword" he said to me "oh I pick it up on my way here when I lost mine" I answered him "give that sword" Zagreus said to me while taking out his hand "no it's mine" I answered him "do you want to die?" he took out his sword and pointed it at me.

I glared at him "put your sword down Zagreus" Damon said to him "why should I listen you?" sh said to him, Damon flick his fingers and Zagreus went flying. I walk towards him and pointed my sword at face "are you sure you want to do that?" he asked me. I clenched my teeth and put down my sword "well, Congrasolations you all have passed please move on to next room" He said to us and we instantly went to the other room, the floor we are standing on is water but we all weren't sink.

A young boy emerge from the water, his face looks like an angel, his skin is white like mil and his eyes are the color of the ocean, he wears an ouji style outfit. The last guardian of the room. Heroin the guard of death.
