THE REFLECTION GAME chapter 35: The Way home/Questions Without Answers
The Final Push Logan seized the moment, leaping toward the Keeper with his blade raised high. “This ends now!” he shouted, plunging the sword into its core. The Keeper let out a deafening scream, its form disintegrating into tendrils of darkness that dissipated into the air. The remaining shadow creatures vanished, and the oppressive atmosphere lifted. The group stood in silence, their breaths heavy. “Did we do it?” Ryan asked, his voice tinged with disbelief. Anna closed the book, its glow fading. “I think… we did.” --- Returning to the Guidance With the Keeper defeated, the path to the central temple was clear. The group moved cautiously, their exhaustion evident but their spirits high. As they approached the temple, the guidance spirits appeared, their forms radiant. “You have done well,” one said. “The anchors are restored, and the realm is balanced once more.” Anna stepped forward, holding the book. “Can we go home now?” The spirits nodded. “Place the book on the altar

The group reunited at the library a month later, drawn back to the place where it all began. They sat in silence, each lost in their own thoughts. “I keep dreaming about it,” Logan finally admitted. “The battles, the creatures… it feels so real.” Ryan nodded. “Me too. It’s like I’m still there.” Mia shivered. “Every time I look in a mirror, I feel like something’s watching me.” Anna took a deep breath. “Maybe we didn’t just imagine it. Maybe it was real, and we just… forgot somehow.” Evelyn’s words echoed in Anna’s mind. The underworld will always remember you. The others exchanged uneasy glances, their silence speaking volumes. Whatever had happened to them, it wasn’t over. And deep down, they all knew it. The library was quiet, its usual hum of activity reduced to the sound of pages turning in distant corners. Anna, Logan, Mia, and Ryan sat at their usual table, a heavy silence hanging between them. The shadows from the evening sun seemed to stretch unnaturally long,

The lights flickered, and Evelyn’s voice suddenly rang out behind them. “Step away from the shadows!”Anna turned, relief flooding her at the sight of her grandmother. “Grandma! What are you doing here?”“I had a feeling,” Evelyn said, her expression grave. “The bond you share with the underworld is still strong. It’s trying to pull you back.”Logan’s jaw tightened. “How do we stop it?”Evelyn reached into her bag, pulling out a small vial of shimmering liquid. “This is an elixir blessed by the spirits of the Seven Realms. It won’t sever the bond entirely, but it will weaken the connection long enough for us to act.”Ryan frowned. “Act how?”Evelyn hesitated, her gaze sweeping over the group. “We need to seal the reflection game permanently. If the book is gone, it means the curse has shifted… to you.”Anna’s stomach churned. “What does that mean?”“It means,” Evelyn said, “you are now the anchors. The underworld is tied to you, and it will keep trying to pull you back unless we break

The battle raged on, each blow taking its toll on the group. Despite their injuries, they pushed forward, inching closer to the glowing altar that stood in the distance. The beast guarding the altar roared with fury, its enormous claws swiping at them relentlessly, each strike carving deep grooves into the ashen ground. Logan gritted his teeth, his body screaming in protest with every movement. He lunged at the creature, slashing at its thick hide, but the blade barely left a scratch. “We’re not making a dent!” he shouted, frustration evident in his voice. Anna, clutching the vial tightly in her trembling hands, glanced toward the altar. “We have to distract it! I just need a few seconds to reach the altar!” Ryan, battered but determined, stepped forward. “I’ve got this.” He grabbed a broken spear lying on the ground and hurled it at the beast’s face. The spear struck its target, lodging just above the creature’s glowing red eye. The beast howled in pain, thrashing wildly. Its

Two weeks had passed since Anna, Logan, Mia, and Ryan had awakened from their long slumber in the hospital. Life seemed to return to normal, but a lingering unease followed them. Though they tried to blend back into their routines, their parents noticed the changes—Anna’s sudden wariness of shadows, Logan’s tendency to flinch at loud noises, Mia’s restlessness, and Ryan’s sleepless nights.Their parents, determined to protect them, decided that staying in their current environment wasn’t safe anymore. The answer came in the form of an invitation—one that Evelyn had orchestrated.Evelyn approached the group one evening, the reflection game book clutched tightly in her hands. “I’ve made arrangements for you to attend a school where you’ll be safe and properly guided,” she announced.Anna frowned. “A new school? Where?”Evelyn handed them a brochure. The words at the top shimmered slightly as if alive: "Sanctum of Mirrors"—a hidden institution for those touched by the supernatural.“What

The days at the Sanctum of Mirrors turned into weeks, and the group slowly began adjusting to their new environment. The initial unease gave way to cautious curiosity, and as they attended classes and explored the sprawling campus, they found themselves surrounded by students who were just as unique and scarred as they were.It was during a particularly challenging combat class that they met their first new friend.The instructor had split the class into pairs, each tasked with sparring using enchanted weapons. Anna was paired with a fiery-haired girl named Kaelene, who wielded twin daggers that seemed to hum with energy.“You’re holding back,” Kaelene said with a smirk, dodging Anna’s hesitant swings with ease.“I don’t want to hurt you,” Anna admitted, gripping her sword tightly.Kaelene laughed. “Trust me, you won’t. I’ve been training here for years.” With a quick motion, she disarmed Anna and pointed a dagger at her throat. “But if you keep holding back, someone else will.”Anna

Anna's voice trembled as she continued reading aloud from the ancient tome, her friends huddled around her. The faint glow of the library's enchanted lanterns cast eerie shadows on the walls, making the symbols on the pages seem to shimmer with a life of their own. “This book—it talks about the Forgotten Anchors,” Anna said, her voice barely above a whisper. “It says they’re fragments of the original Reflection Game. They were scattered to keep something imprisoned. Something powerful.” Logan leaned in, his brow furrowed. “Are you saying the Reflection Game isn’t just a test? It’s a prison key?” “That’s what it looks like,” Anna replied, flipping to another page. The text was written in a strange, swirling script that seemed to shift as she read it. “And if someone collects all the anchors…” “They can unleash whatever’s trapped,” Mia finished, her voice tinged with fear. Ryan slammed the book shut, the sound echoing in the quiet library. “No. We’re not doing this again. We ba
Last Updated : 2024-12-30THE REFLECTION GAME chapter 42 : The sanctum of mirrors; routine
The Sanctum of Mirrors began its day with a grand and structured breakfast in the Hall of Dawn, a massive chamber filled with long wooden tables and high, arched ceilings. The walls were adorned with intricate carvings of mirrors and celestial symbols, their silver inlays catching the morning sunlight that streamed through stained-glass windows. The hall buzzed with activity as students filed in, dressed in their dark uniforms embroidered with the school’s crest. Despite the uniformity, each student carried a sense of individuality. Some had glowing eyes that hinted at their elemental powers, others bore tattoos that pulsed faintly with magic, and a few floated slightly above the ground as they moved, a mark of their connection to spiritual planes. Anna, Logan, Mia, and Ryan entered together, their footsteps echoing on the polished stone floor. The smell of freshly baked bread, fruits, and an assortment of magical teas filled the air. The students moved in clusters, each group defin

--- A Narrow Victory They regrouped in the woods behind the school, their breaths coming in ragged gasps. “That was insane,” Mia said, collapsing against a tree. “What if he comes after us?” “He will,” Anna said, holding up the journal. “But now we have something to fight back with. This journal—look at it.” She opened the journal, revealing sketches of ancient runes and notes about the Reflection Game. At the center was a detailed map of the Sanctum, with markings that seemed to indicate hidden passageways and artifacts. Logan frowned. “He’s been tracking the game’s influence here. And these markings... they’re connected to the anchors. He’s been trying to locate them.” Mia’s eyes widened. “Why would he do that? Isn’t the game over?” Ryan shook his head. “It’s never been over. It’s just... dormant. He must be trying to reactivate it—or use its power for something.” Anna’s stomach churned. “We need to take this to Principal Katie. She has to know what’s going on.” --- A Sec
THE REFLECTION GAME chapter : 62 Unwitting Players
The next morning, the students of Sanctum of Mirrors returned to their usual routines, oblivious to the danger lurking among them.Anna and her friends gathered in the dining hall, where the chatter of students echoed against the enchanted ceilings. The room was abuzz with excitement about the upcoming inter-school competition with Obsidian Crescent—a rivalry steeped in both magic and mistrust.Logan jabbed his fork into his scrambled eggs. “I don’t trust this competition. It feels... off.”Mia rolled her eyes. “You don’t trust anything. Maybe it’s just a way for the schools to show off their skills.”Ryan smirked. “Or maybe they’re just trying to spy on us, like we’d do the same if we had the chance.”Anna, however, was lost in thought, her mind lingering on the book they’d found and the secrets it revealed about the Reflection Game. “What if there’s more to this than just rivalry?” she murmured.Logan raised an eyebrow. “You mean, like another layer to the game?”Anna nodded. “Or ma
THE REFLECTION GAME Chapter 61 : A Betrayal Within
The tension in Sanctum of Mirrors was thick as the senior staff of the school gathered in the Principal’s Chamber. The grand circular room, illuminated by enchanted chandeliers, exuded an air of authority. At the center stood Principal Katie, a tall, composed woman with piercing green eyes that seemed to see through souls. She folded her hands behind her back, waiting for silence. To her left sat Headmaster Ewan, a stern man known for his mastery of elemental magic. Next to him was Headmistress Liora, who specialized in dreamscapes and illusions. Around the table were the other senior teachers: Professor Armand of combat training, Professor Evelynn of spell theory, and Professor Helia, the youngest, who oversaw magical artifacts and their histories. “Thank you all for coming on such short notice,” Katie began, her voice steady yet firm. “I’ve called this meeting because of recent... disturbances within the school.” Liora raised an eyebrow. “Are you referring to the Crescent studen
THE REFLECTION GAME chapter 60 : The Rivalry
The peaceful days at the Sanctum of Mirrors were suddenly disrupted when Principal Katie called for an urgent assembly in the grand hall. The students, buzzing with curiosity, quickly gathered in the enormous, echoing space. Anna, Logan, Mia, Ryan, and Zara sat together near the middle, their expressions a mix of intrigue and concern. Katie stood on the elevated stage, his silver robes shimmering under the enchanted chandeliers. “Students,” she began, her voice steady but grave, “you are aware of the sacred purpose of this institution—to train and protect young souls blessed with supernatural abilities. However, it has come to my attention that another school, The Obsidian Crescent, is working against us.” The room erupted into murmurs. The Obsidian Crescent was infamous for its dark practices and competitive rivalry with the Sanctum. Unlike the Sanctum, which trained students to balance power with responsibility, the Crescent encouraged mastery of forbidden arts and ruthless ambit
THE REFLECTION GAME chapter : 59 The Principal’s Summons
When midterm break ended, the Sanctum of Mirrors was abuzz with activity as students returned. Anna and her friends walked through the grand gates of the school, their eyes scanning the familiar stone walls and towering spires. Despite the normalcy, the glowing marks on their wrists served as a constant reminder of the Reflection Game’s lingering presence. The hallways were alive with chatter about the break. Students compared spell techniques they’d practiced at home, shared stories of family adventures, and exchanged enchanted trinkets gifted by relatives. But for Anna and her friends, their break had been far from ordinary. --- The Principal’s Summons The next morning, as the students gathered for breakfast in the grand dining hall, an enchanted parchment appeared in front of Anna. The glowing script read: “Anna Nilsen, report to the principal’s office immediately.” Her friends exchanged worried glances. “Why would he summon you?” Logan asked, his brow furrowed. Ann
THE REFLECTION GAME Chapter : 58 The Origins of the Reflection Game
Back at Sanctum of Mirrors, the five friends sat huddled in the library, pouring over every book, scroll, and fragment they could find about the Reflection Game. After their harrowing experience at Cravenwood Manor, they needed answers—answers about where the game had come from and why it had chosen them. Zara flipped through a brittle, ancient manuscript titled The Forgotten Mirrors. “Listen to this,” she said, her voice tinged with urgency. “‘The Reflection Game was born in the Age of Shadows, forged by the council of the Seven Immortals as a test for the worthy and a trap for the greedy.’” Anna leaned closer, her eyes scanning the page. “It says here that the game wasn’t just a test—it was a safeguard. A way to protect powerful relics and knowledge from falling into the wrong hands.” “Protect?” Mia asked, her brow furrowed. “It nearly killed us.” Ryan chimed in, “It probably wasn’t meant for random people like us. The Immortals must’ve created it for their descendants or chose
THE REFLECTION GAME Chapter : 57 THE REVELATION
That evening, as the students gathered in the manor’s grand hall for a brief reprieve, whispers filled the room. Stories of those who didn’t return from the final trial circulated, and a heavy tension blanketed the air. Logan, Anna, Ryan, Mia, and Zara sat together at a corner table, their glowing orb resting between them. “Why does Kael look so smug?” Mia muttered, nodding toward the headmaster, who stood at the front of the hall with his hands clasped behind his back. “Because he knows something we don’t,” Zara said, her voice tinged with bitterness. Anna glanced around the room, noticing how other students clutched their retrieved objects with unease. The seniors, especially Lyra, seemed too calm—like they knew more than they let on. “Why do I feel like we’re playing right into their hands?” Logan whispered. Before anyone could respond, Kael stepped forward, his booming voice silencing the room. “Congratulations to all who survived the maze,” he began. “Your efforts have pr
THE REFLECTION GAME CHAPTER : 56 the second night
The second night at Cravenwood Manor was unlike anything they had experienced before. The students barely managed to sleep, as the house seemed to come alive. Whispers echoed through the halls, doors creaked open and shut on their own, and shadows moved where there should have been none. Anna tossed and turned in her bed, unable to shake the feeling that she was being watched. She sat up and looked around the room. Logan was asleep on the floor near the door, his arm draped over his head. Ryan was snoring softly in the corner, while Mia hugged her pillow tightly, her face twisted in discomfort. She decided to take a walk, hoping the fresh air would help clear her mind. As she slipped out of the room, she heard faint footsteps behind her. “Couldn’t sleep either?” Logan whispered, appearing by her side. Anna shook her head. “This place is... suffocating.” Logan nodded. “Yeah, I keep feeling like something’s going to jump out at us. Maybe I’m just paranoid.” They walked in silence
THE REFLECTION GAME chapter 55 : A Journey to the Old House
The announcement came the morning after their trials in the Hall of Mirrors. Headmistress Seraphine gathered the students in the Great Hall, her voice echoing through the high ceilings. “Today marks the start of a significant tradition for all students,” she began. “Each year, the chosen few are taken to Cravenwood Manor, a historic part of our school. There, you will spend three days testing your limits, bonding as a group, and learning the true essence of unity. Only the senior students have experienced this rite before. Prepare yourselves. The old house has… secrets.” Excitement mixed with unease as whispers spread through the hall. Logan leaned toward Anna. “Why do I feel like this is going to be worse than the Night of Revelations?” Anna rolled her eyes. “Because it probably is.” --- Arriving at Cravenwood Manor The bus ride to Cravenwood Manor was filled with chatter, though the group remained on edge. Mia kept glancing out the window, watching the dense forest grow thic
