Chương 542: Outside The Labyrinth

"U-urhhh…"

I slurred, regaining my consciousness slowly.

'I can't remember the last time I felt so lightheaded and drowsy.' My mind wandered as the blurry images of everything around me started getting clearer.

"… Uh?" My eyes finally regained sight, and I realized that we were no longer in the Labyrinth—or at least, I wasn't.

'Wait, this place is…'

"You're finally up." Someone murmured beside me.

Silver hair flowed with the breeze, causing me to glance in the direction of the owner of the voice.

"M-Maria…?"

The girl's eyes wandered elsewhere, as though intentionally avoiding eye contact with me.

'Come on…'

"How are you feeling?" She muttered once more.

I couldn't tell whether she was upset, shy, or worried. Her expression looked blank, and her blue eyes looked distracted.

"Y-yeah, I'm good. I feel much better now. Where are the others?"
