Chapter 301
The wall was the only thing in Angele's eyes .

The engraving of a pale-faced woman was surrounded by black vines as she herself was silently staring at him with a pair of dark hollow eyes .

"You can understand my words?" Angele responded in the ancient language . He stood in front of the wall and looked into the woman’s eyes which were akin to two dark shallow holes .

"Of course . " The woman’s face moved as though she was nodding in response . The vines around her were being dragged to the side .

"So, why did you decide to talk to me?" Angele asked .

"You heard the voice of that young boy, right?" The woman smiled . "This ruin is dangerous, very dangerous . Unfortunate things will happen if you are not careful enough . Tell me why you are here . Perhaps I can offer you some help . Seeing you is like seeing my long-lost children…"

"Why am I here?" Angele hesitated .

"Yes, one does not come here for nothing . This is the Nightmare Realm which will make you have an experience as if you had a nightmare . So tell me, why are you here?" the woman replied in a light tone .

"I'm searching for a bloodline that will help me enter this realm again . " There was no point for Angele to hide his true purpose .

"Why do you wish to enter this realm once again?" the woman continued asking .

"For the sake of obtaining rare resources, knowledge, and . . . some other things," Angele answered in a serious tone .

"Why do you wish to obtain the knowledge and the resources?" Clearly, she would not stop any time .

"I want to become stronger, to advance to the next rank . "

"Why is that? What will the high rank bring you?"

Angele stopped and pursed his lips .

"What will the rank bring me?" He lowered his head and started thinking .

‘Power? Money? Beautiful women?’

‘No, none of those . ’

Angele once asked himself the same question but the conclusion he got was to keep moving forward .

"What are you seeking from this world? Have you ever thought about it?" the woman questioned him again .

"What’s the purpose of your life?"

Angele was getting confused .

He recalled his former life back on Earth . The only thing he had done every single day was to have fun . This lifestyle made him feel like he was rotting from the inside like a worthless worm .

His past life was boring but safe .

Yet if he had not reincarnated into this world after the car accident, his dull, boring life would have continued as it was, forever .

This new world, on the contrary, was charming . His life was far more colorful than dull as it had been before .

At the beginning, Angele wanted to gain power in order to protect his family and to become a strong individual . His dream had come to fruition when he advanced to become a formal wizard, then the only thing he needed to accomplish was to keep progressing as a wizard .

There was no point in him stopping as all the resources he needed was near his grasp .

Angele could have chosen to return to the west coast and merely settle in selling potions the rest of his entire life . He could have enjoyed being in a peaceful environment for the next several hundred years .

However, such a way of life was not what he desired .

Angele now figured out the answer to the questions .

Suddenly, he raised his head and glanced at the woman again .

"What is your name?" he asked .

The woman smiled . "You may refer to me as the 'Wall of Confusion' . I can see through your mind and I shall guide you to your life purpose . Once you find the answers to my questions, I shall bestow you a special reward . "

"What if I could not?" Angele narrowed his eyes .

As he lowered his head, he saw countless black vines climbing up his legs which nearly covered his waist . Angele's legs became numb, unable to move it in the slightest bit .

"If you cannot find the answers, I shall consume you . I feed on wanderers' confusion as it will let me become more powerful . " The woman started laughing .

"Interesting . " Angele blinked his eyes, then he slashed the vines with his cursed scimitar .

*Clank*

The scimitar was blocked, and the vines were not damaged .

He took out the Light of Thorns .

"It will not work . You must find the answer, then I will free you . " The woman pursed her lips .



"Find the answer, huh?" Angele took a deep breath .

"You want to know what I’m seeking from this world?"

*KA*

The vines started climbing again . Angele had already felt tired and he could barely move his arms .

Back on Earth, Angele had no passion for his job and the only thing he wanted to do was to search for an exciting purpose in his life .

"I will keep moving forward to search for the things that will excite me; this world is vast . The higher my rank is, the more interesting things will I encounter . I will climb the peak of the mountain and enjoy the best view . "

He had these thoughts in mind and spat everything out without organizing his thoughts too much; these were his pure desires .

"The horrifying Nightmare Realm, the mysterious Chaos Dimension, the legendary Void Domain—such adventures await me . Therefore, I must not stop advancing . "

Suddenly, Angele's body set ablaze and was surrounded by translucent flames, burning the expanding roots . The roots were burnt into ashes in but a few seconds and fell to the ground .

"Never will I stop until I discover every exciting thing in this world . Perhaps I could even explore all realms one day . . . "


Angele blinked his eyes several times .

"I might also be able to find out the reason why I have been sent into this world…Ha, you cannot feed on my confusion . "

*PA*

The last vine dropped to the ground and turned into black ash as Angele’s life purpose became clear .

"Congratulations . " The woman was not concerned that she just lost her prey . "I want to know how you solved the problem within such a short duration . Anyway, please accept the reward . "

She opened her mouth and stuck her black tongue out . The tongue moved to Angele like a snake; it was more several meters long .

On the tip of the tone was a golden key .

The surface of the key was covered by complicated patterns .

Angele grabbed the key without any hesitation . He could not feel any evil intention coming from the Wall of Confusion . It seemed the key was a real reward .

The key was warm . Angele wondered if the woman had a body behind the wall .



"Go down the tunnel and you will find a garden . Don’t talk to any living being you see inside it even if they speak first . Go across the garden and you will see a door . Once you open that door, you will find another door that this key will be used on . Everything you want is behind that door . "

When the woman finished her speaking, her face sank into the wall behind the vines .

Angele held the key in hand, turning around, then he started walking down the tunnel .

He found an exit after walking for several minutes .

He left the tunnel and entered a garden with bright sunshine .

The roses were bloody red and the vines on the ground were covered with sharp thorns . It almost looked like red flowers floating on a black sea .

The sunshine came from the sky, but it was so bright that Angele could barely see anything .

In the center of the garden, there was a white swing .

A short man, wearing a white one piece and a flower band, was sitting on it .

Angele blocked some of the light with his right hand and looked at the swing .

It was an old woman with dry skin .

She was singing a nursery rhyme while swinging, her voice was high-pitched but hoarse .

"The tales say that…from the other side of the sea…there was a cute muffin…its skin was golden…its feet were white…" The old woman was singing and smiling, she sounded happy .

However, the old woman stared at Angele directly in the eyes after noticing his presence .

Her long sharp eyes were bloodshot as if she had not slept for a long time .

The strange song being sung by her was still continuing .

The Wall of Confusion had warned him about the situation . He stopped looking at the old woman and started walking to the other side of the garden .

Angele noticed the voice of the old woman was becoming increasingly closer, almost as if she was already right behind him .

Angele turned his head around and saw the old woman approaching him . She was singing and smiling while slowly walking to him .

His skull numbed, and he decided to proceed with caution .

The old woman was only several steps away from him .



*PA*

When Angele finally found the large door, he quickly rushed to it and pushed it open . The surface of the door was cold and hard .

He stepped into the door quickly .

The old woman stopped outside the door, still staring at Angele but she finally stopped singing .

Angele took a deep breath and closed the door .

He turned around and found himself in a narrow brown hallway . The hallway was about 10 meters long and there was another door by the end of it .

The door looked identical to the engraving in the world stone laboratory’s that had exploded .

Angele compared the door to the record in the database and found some similar patterns .

The mysterious golden patterns on the door were familiar .

He walked to the door quickly and checked the key in his hand .

*CHI*

A small hole slowly appeared in the center of the door and it fitted the key perfectly .

Angele inserted the key into the hole and turned it to the left, but nothing happened .

He then turned it to the right .

*KA*

The door was unlocked .

‘Warning! Warning! You have 10 minutes left . 9 minutes 59 seconds . 9 minutes 57 seconds…’

Zero’s mechanical voice echoed in Angele’s ears .

He quickly pushed the door open .

*BAM*

Angele raised his head . What he saw surprised him .
