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.
