As Alex stands before her, she feels a deep sense of despair wash over her, causing her expression to remain stoic and unmoving. At this moment, everything around her fades to black and she can feel him standing tall and firm in front of her. After some time, he finally summons forth the magic spell, casting a powerful aura that fills the space around them.
As he braced himself for the unknown, a transformative shift began to unfold before his very eyes. The world as he knew it was dissolving, replaced by a breathtaking spectacle of light and color that beckoned him onward. With each passing moment, he felt himself being pulled deeper into an alternate dimension, unlike anything he had ever experienced.
Alex's recollection of his dream is hazy, but he can distinctly recall a profound feeling of happiness that pervaded throughout. As Alex found himself trapped in the ominous void, the inky darkness surrounding him made it impossible to see anything beyond a faint peach hue. Despite his desperate attempts to conjure different spells, each incantation was quickly consumed by the unrelenting shadow of the dimension. Every incantation he attempted proved futile, leaving Alex feeling utterly helpless in this desolate space.
As Alex ponders to himself, "Did I truly exist in the dream world, or was it just another one of my vivid dreams?" he remembers the spell Maya had given him, which could determine whether he was awake or not. With a resolute determination, he begins to cast the spell and immediately feels its energy coursing through him. As the incantation takes hold, a luminous glow begins to emanate from Alex's body, illuminating the darkness that previously surrounded him. The shadows gradually dissipate, revealing the vivid colors and intricate details of his surroundings. Alex can't help but feel a sense of wonder and awe as he gazes upon the magical world that lay before him.
The dream world is a fantastical realm brimming with potent mana, imbuing the surroundings with a profound sense of tranquility. It's as if he's wandered into a stunning garden, with an abundance of flowers in every direction. Alex takes a deep breath, and the sweet aroma of different roses fills his senses, making him feel like he's in paradise. As he meanders through this ethereal realm, he can't help but marvel at the ever-changing landscape around him. Suddenly, the garden he was just admiring transforms into a pitch-black void where terrifying monsters slumber. Alex's shock is palpable as he realizes that the flowers and their fragrances were nothing but an illusory manifestation. "Woah!" he exclaims, struggling to comprehend the surreal experience he's just had.
Alex was awe-struck as he gazed at the vast expanse before him. Towering monsters, some so colossal that their peaks disappeared into the clouds, lay peacefully asleep all around him. Their size was so immense that Alex couldn't even fathom where this landscape ended. As he looked out into the distance, a shiver ran down his spine as he thought of how he could ever hope to find Linda in such a daunting terrain. Despite his fear, Alex tried to stay calm and focused, determined to find a way to locate her. He searched tirelessly for hours, scouring every inch of the Dreamworld. But his search was in vain, and he found himself at a loss, unsure of what to do next. As he sat and pondered his next move, he realized that he needed a new strategy.
