Allen held his breath and pricked up his ears to listen.
But there was no sound again.
"Did I really hear it wrong?" Allen said to himself, "Was I too nervous and imagined it?"
Allen took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.
"Allen."
That voice came again.
This time, the voice was a little louder.
She sounded very sad, almost like she was begging for help.
It came from a very far place.
"Allen."
In the mirrors around him, Allen found that the expression on his face was very serious and he looked very nervous.
But Allen finally heard the direction of the voice, it came from behind the mirror.
"Luna, is that you?" Allen shouted.
"Allen! It's me, Luna! "Luna's voice became clearer and clearer.
"Allen, keep going forward, defeat yourself, and you can come over."
Luna's voice was suddenly magnified countless times, and then there was no sound.
No matter how Allen called, Luna's voice did not appear again.
"Defeat myself? Go where? "
Allen did not understand what Luna was talking about at all.
Allen understood every word she said, but when put together, Allen was completely confused.
Allen randomly chose a direction and walked forward, and the scene in front of him changed greatly.
The wide mirror space seemed to be infinitely extended, stretching into the distance.
At this time, Allen found that there were not only four Allen, there was one Allen above and one under his feet!
This mirror space was particularly cold, except for Allen and his shadow, the surroundings were empty and silent.
Alan stopped in his tracks. "There's no end to this."
"There is no end to this!" A familiar voice said.
Allen clenched his magic wand and stared at the person, as if facing a great enemy.
Allen was not the only one here.
Allen was surprised to find that his shadows — the six shadows in the mirror were all gone!
These shadows gathered together, from transparent to gray to black, gradually solidifying and growing stronger.
Allen's shadow quietly passed through the cold mirror, quickly approaching Allen.
He smiled at Allen, a strange, familiar smile.
"Hello, Allen!"
He stopped a few steps away from Allen.
Allen stared at him in disbelief.
He was staring at him.
Yes, it was Allen himself.
Allen opposite him was smiling at Allen, that smile was as cold as the glass mirror surrounding them.
"Don't be afraid," he said, "I am your shadow."
Allen was not afraid, in fact, he was a little happy that he understood Luna's words.
As long as he defeated his shadow, wouldn't he be defeated?
As long as he defeated the shadow in front of him, he would be able to see Luna.
The shadow's eyes — Allen's eyes — stared greedily at Allen, like a dog staring at a meaty bone.
Allen's face was serious, but the shadow was smiling very happily.
"You are going to stay here!" the shadow said.
His voice echoed in the silence, like an icicle piercing glass.
"It is I who is going to leave. I will take your place and obtain your glory, your family, and your friendship."
Allen clenched the magic wand in his hand and stared at his shadow. Why did he not look afraid at all? Was he so sure that he would win?
"Why are you so nervous?" The shadow smiled wickedly. "Are you so afraid of your other side, Allen?"
He stared at Allen.
"I am like this, you know," the shadow said. "I am your shadow, your other side, your cold side. You don't have to be afraid, just accept your fate obediently! "
Although Allen did not know what the shadow was up to, he was very clear about one thing: if he waited for death, his shadow would switch places with him.
His shadow would return to the Hogwarts, and the real Allen would be forever trapped in this mirror dimension, this cold, deathly silent space.
Allen stared at his shadow and decided to stall for time. He asked questions and gave himself some time to think.
"Whose mirror is this? Who made it? "Allen asked.
The shadow opposite him shrugged. "How would I know? I am just your shadow, you know? "
"But how..."
"Time's up," the shadow said eagerly. "Don't try to stall for time with stupid questions. We should switch places. It's time for you to be my shadow! "
The shadow suddenly split into six and rushed toward Allen like a gust of wind.
Allen hurriedly ran. He did not know what spell to use to break his shadow.
He also did not know if breaking these shadows would affect him.
Allen's two legs ran forward rhythmically.
His two arms were swinging.
It was very clear and bright here. Allen could not tell whether he was running or not.
When he ran, he did not make any sound, and there was no air blowing in his face.
However, Allen still kept running forward in this seemingly endless, cold, and flickering light.
Allen's shadow was chasing after him.
But Allen could not hear his voice.
He had no shadow.
But Allen knew that the shadow was behind him.
He knew that if he was caught by the shadow, he would be finished.
He would be locked in this empty world forever. He could not see, hear, smell, or touch anything. He would be locked in this cold glass world forever.
"Stop, Allen!" Allen heard his shadow shouting behind him, "Stop right now."
His voice sounded very anxious! Why was he anxious?
He said before that the time was up! So, after a certain amount of time had passed, he would not be able to do anything to him, right?
Allen ran even more vigorously.
"It's useless, Allen! You can't run away. "The shadow was flustered and exasperated.
"I will follow you forever." Suddenly, the six shadows merged into one and returned to Allen's body.
Allen stopped. He suddenly understood what it meant to be followed like a shadow. He never thought that one day, he would have to run away from his own shadow.
However, it was useless. He could not defeat the shadow. He still could not leave this cold mirror world.
Gritting his teeth, Allen said, "Shadow, come out. I won't run anymore. Let's have a fair duel."
As if believing Allen's words, the shadow reappeared in front of Allen.
"What's the point of a duel? I am you, and you are me. Whatever you know, I know. Even your secret of coming back from the dead. "
