All Chapters of THE REFLECTION GAME : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

As dawn broke, painting the sky with streaks of gold and pink, Anna and her friends trudged back to Reflection Academy, their minds heavy with the events of the night. The adrenaline was slowly wearing off, but the reality of what had just transpired was settling in. They had barely escaped the creature and its summoners, and even though they had won the battle, the war was far from over.“I still don’t get it,” Mia said as they walked through the academy gates, her voice tired but filled with disbelief. “Why would Obsidian Crescent summon that creature? What were they trying to do?”“We don’t know yet,” Anna replied, looking back at the forest, where the clearing was now eerily silent. “But whatever it was, it’s clear they’re playing a much bigger game than we thought.”Logan was silent, his brow furrowed in thought. He hadn’t trusted Selena, but her help had been crucial. “She said she doesn’t want Obsidian Crescent to win. I can’t figure out if she’s being honest or just playing us

Days passed, and the sense of unease within Reflection game only grew. Whispers spread through the halls about odd occurrences—students seeing strange figures in the mirrors, books falling off shelves without explanation, and lights flickering at random. The once vibrant school now felt like it was closing in on itself, as if the walls themselves were aware of the growing darkness. Anna, Logan, Mia, and Ryan spent their evenings in the library, researching anything that could explain the unsettling events. They had learned long ago that information was their most powerful weapon, but now it felt like they were chasing shadows—every lead they uncovered only led to more questions. “It’s like the game is alive,” Anna said one night, frustration seeping into her voice. “Like it’s watching us, waiting for us to make a mistake.” Ryan nodded. “And it knows we’re not alone anymore. It’s trying to find a way to use us against each other.” Logan’s eyes narrowed. “It’s like it’s feeding off

The students trudged through the mirrored terrain in tense silence. The fragile alliance between Sanctum of Mirrors and Obsidian Crescent hung by a thread, with every glance exchanged between the groups filled with suspicion. The mirrored world seemed to grow darker with every step, the air heavy with an oppressive energy. The once-reflective surfaces now appeared cracked and dull, as if the realm itself was deteriorating under the strain of their presence. “We need to figure out how to fix this before it gets worse,” Anna said, her voice cutting through the quiet. Damon sneered. “Maybe if your school wasn’t so weak, we wouldn’t be in this mess.” Logan bristled, but Mia placed a hand on his shoulder, shaking her head. “Don’t. He’s not worth it.” Ryan, walking beside them, muttered, “I’d like to see how Damon handles this place alone. Bet he’d last five minutes.” Despite the tension, they pressed on, each group unwilling to let the other out of sight. --- The Mirror’s

The Chamber of Reflection was unlike anything Anna had ever seen. The room was a vast, circular space with a floor of polished obsidian that reflected everything like a dark mirror. At the center stood an ancient pedestal, surrounded by floating orbs of light. The air hummed with magic, and the walls pulsed with strange, glowing runes that seemed alive. Principal Katie and the headmaster of Obsidian Crescent stood on opposite balconies overlooking the chamber. “This trial will test not only your strength but your trust in one another,” Principal Katie announced. “The Chamber of Reflection reveals your deepest truths. To succeed, you must navigate its challenges as one, or risk being consumed by its power.” Damon smirked from across the room, his team standing at the ready. “Ready to lose, Sanctum stars?” Logan rolled his eyes. “We’ll see who’s laughing when this is over.” The trial began with a blinding flash of light. When it faded, Anna and her friends found themselves standin

The uneasy truce between Sanctum of Mirrors and Obsidian Crescent allowed both schools to rebuild their routines. Classes resumed, practice sessions intensified, and the rivalry cooled, but tension lingered beneath the surface. The shattered crystal’s remains had been retrieved by the faculty and locked away in a heavily guarded vault beneath Sanctum, though whispers of its residual power circulated among the students.Anna found herself waking up in the middle of the night more often than not, haunted by dreams of the shattered crystal reforming. One night, as she stared into the small mirror in her dormitory, she saw a flicker of movement behind her—a shadow that shouldn’t have been there.“Anna?” Logan’s voice startled her as he entered the room.She spun around, clutching her chest. “Don’t sneak up on me like that!”“You look like you’ve seen a ghost,” Logan said, narrowing his eyes. “Another nightmare?”“It wasn’t a nightmare,” Anna said hesitantly, her gaze flickering back to th
