My actions were fully observed by my mentor, but he did not stop me; he seemed to have known this would happen, so there was not a trace of shock on his face. It was as if everything was supposed to be this way, and if it hadn't happened, that would have been strange.
My hand wasn't blocked by the surface of the mirror, but instead it passed right through as if there were no mirror at all, just a black hole.
I quickly withdrew my hand, looking at my mentor in surprise.
"Mentor, is this...is this the entrance to the Paradise Realm? Why is it so dark inside, I can't see anything? What am I supposed to do for light when I go in, don't you have a flashlight or something for me?"
"Why would you need a flashlight?" The abnormality of the mirror didn't surprise my mentor, but my words seemed to confuse him, as he didn't quite grasp what I was getting at.
