Trial of Mind: Ancient Stone

--

No one was in the reception area when Cedric came out. The place still looked the same as when he saw it for the first time.

Apart from the hall that led to the personal rooms of challengers, the only other doors led to the trials themselves. There's even a plate on top of the doors that dictates which one leads to what.

The system AI tipped him that out of the three, he should go to the Trial of Mind first. The AI didn't provide any additional details after that; it just casually mentioned this.

Cedric thought that he didn't have anything to lose, so he decided to follow its suggestions. He walked to the middle door, which led to the Trial of Mind.

Swoosh!

As soon as he touched the doorknob, Cedric found himself standing in a completely different world. It happened so quickly that he didn't even sense it happening.
