The Echoes Of The Abyss
Chapter 16: The Last Plan

Lian and Eris continued to walk through the dark alleys leading to the exit. But suddenly, they were faced with a large room. In the middle of the room was a large table and on top was a large wooden box decorated with beautiful carvings.

Eris felt that the wooden box had a powerful magical aura. He felt like there was energy spreading out from the box and made him feel scared. However, he also felt that the box was the key to getting out of this underground world.

Lian looked at the wooden box with the same feeling. He felt that there was something strange about the box, but he did not know what it was.

"The box is too strong to open," Eris said in a trembling voice. "But I have a final plan to get out of here."

Lian looked at Eris with curiosity. "What's the plan?" ask Lian.

Eris smiled. "I will use my magic to open a portal to the outside world."

Lian surprised. "Can you do that?"

Eris nodded. "I learned from my magic teacher. But I have to focus all my power on this magic. So, you have to defend me when I create the portal."

Lian nodded firmly. He promises to protect Eris with all her strength.

Eris began to cast her magic. He began to sing a spell and wagged his magic wand. Lian felt that there was magical energy spreading from Eris' body and filled the room.

Suddenly, a portal appeared in front of them. Lian looked outside and saw fresh sunlight and forage. He felt like he wanted to jump into a portal and exit this underground world.

However, before they came out of this underground world, a monstrous being appeared from the shadows. The creature appears to be large in size, with large black wings and sharp teeth protruding from its mouth. Lian and Eris are ready to fight.

"Jaga portal!" eris said to Lian.

Lian nodded and placed her sword ready to fight. He was ready to fight against that monstrous creature.

Eris took her magic back. He threw a huge fireball towards the creature. The creature dodged the fireball with incredible speed.

Lian tried to attack the creature with her sword, but the creature was too fast. The creature continues to attack and tries to cripple Lian and Eris.

However, Eris did not give up. He continued to cast his magic and hit the creature with his magic.Lian saw Eris struggling tenaciously against the ferocious creature with her magic. Although he continued to unleash intense attacks, the creature seemed to be invincible. Lian felt desperate, but she knew she couldn't give up now. He ran towards the creature and tried to hit it with his sword, but the creature dodged easily.

Eris noticed Lian's movements and quickly made a decision. He used his magic to make himself fly into the air and be on top of the creature. From there, he cast the most powerful magic he ever had, and struck the creature with his deadly magic. After a while, the creature began to weaken, and finally fell to the ground in a lifeless state.

Lian looked at Eris with admiration. "You're so great" he said.

Eris smiled broadly. "We're great together" he said.

Lian nodded, and the two of them walked back towards the exit. After a while of walking, they finally reached that door. Lian tried to open it with her strength, but the door was too heavy. Eris sees Lian struggling and immediately helps her. Together, they opened the door, and a blinding sunlight filled the hallway.

Both of them came out of that door, and felt a fresh breeze blowing on their faces. They looked at the blue sky, which looked so beautiful after being in the darkness for so long.

"Let's go home" said Lian.

Eris nodded. "I agree" he said.

They walked together, towards the same place where they arrived in the underground world. Lian was relieved that they had survived and had successfully completed their adventure. But in her heart, she knew that she would always miss Eris, and remembered all her sacrifices to protect them both.

Lian watched with a fixation as Eris tried to stop the creature with her magic. He sees Eris's body begin to weaken and he continues to pray in his heart so that Eris can defeat the creature.

Finally, Eris stopped the creature's attack with her final magic. The creature eventually fell to the ground, not moving anymore. Eris fell to the floor, seemingly out of steam. Lian immediately ran towards him, and held his hand.

"Eris, are you okay?" tanyanya's worried.

Eris smiled weakly, "I'm fine," he said, "But I feel so tired."

Lian helps him get up and takes Eris to the dugout they found earlier. He found a comfortable seat for Eris and sat down beside her.

"That creature is so powerful" said Lian, "How can you defeat it?"

Eris sighed, "That was my last magic. The magic was very dangerous, which should not be used," he said, "But I had no other choice. I don't want us to die here."

Lian nodded in understanding, "I see," he said, "But you shouldn't use that magic if it harms your life."

Eris lifted her face and looked into Lian's eyes, "I won't let you die here," he said firmly.

Lian smiled, "I know that," he said.

The two were silent for a moment, staring at each other. Finally, Eris took off her gaze and took a deep breath.

"Come, we have to find a way out of here" he said, "We've been here long enough."

Lian nodded in agreement and helped Eris get up. They continue their adventure, seeking a way out of the deadly underworld. But this time, they did so with more caution and caution, given the dangers that continue to threaten them at all times.

After several hours of walking, they finally found the exit of the labyrinth. Both of them felt very relieved and happy, they had managed to cross that mysterious and dangerous underground world.

They came out to the surface and felt the warm sunlight on their faces. Lian looked up and saw a clear, blue sky.

"We're finally out" he said, "I can't wait to get back home and meet my family."

Eris smiled and nodded, "I am also impatient," he said.

The two continued on their way back home, with hearts of joy and relief from succeeding through all the obstacles and dangers in the underground world. Upon arrival at home, Lian and Eris are greeted with joy by their deeply worried friends and family. They tell stories about their adventures, about the courage and perseverance needed to survive in a mysterious underground world.

As time went on, the relationship between Lian and Eris grew closer, and they could not imagine life without each other. They often travel to the underground world to explore places they have not seen before, and they both find happiness and peace among the darkness.

Carefully, they prepare to protect themselves and their loved ones from danger in a mysterious and dangerous underground world. And with that, they stepped forward, ready to face whatever might come before them. Their adventure is not over yet, and they are ready to take on even greater challenges.

Lian and Eris arrive at the entrance of Lian's house without any unwanted incident. They thanked each other and promised to remain friends. Lian opened the door and the two of them entered the house.

However, once they get inside the house, they realize that something is different. The house was empty and it seemed to have been unoccupied for a long time. All the furniture had folded neatly and there was dust in every corner.

"Eris, what's going on here?" lian asked, a little confused.

Eris pondered for a moment and said, "I have a bad feeling about this. I think we should get out of here."

Lian nodded in agreement and the two of them started looking for a way out. However, as they walked through the living room, the door suddenly opened violently and someone appeared from behind the door.

It was a tall man with a black robe and a black mask covering his face. He looks very strong and dangerous.

"It's been a long time since I've been waiting for you guys" said the man in a hoarse voice.

Lian and Eris looked at each other with confused gazes, not knowing what was happening.

"Don't know who I am? I am the Demon King, and I have been waiting for your arrival," said the man, trying to scare them.

Lian and Eris looked at each other again, this time with determined gazes. They knew that they had to unite and fight the Demon King if they wanted to get out of it safely.

"He's a big mistake if he thinks we'll give up easily" Eris said in a fiery voice.

Lian agreed and raised her sword ready to fight the Demon King. The Demon King laughed loudly and shot towards them quickly.

The fight was fierce and difficult. The Demon King was extremely powerful and had enormous magic abilities. However, Lian and Eris had equally great courage and determination.

They took turns attacking the Demon King, and finally managed to defeat him by using their skilled magic power and swords. The Demon King collapsed to the floor, helpless.

Lian and Eris breathed heavily and hugged each other, celebrating their victory. They know that this is not the end of their adventure, but they will always unite and face challenges together.

Eventually, they left the house and returned to the outside world. The sun was shining brightly and fresh air filled their lungs. They both smiled happily, knowing that their adventure had changed their lives forever.

A few weeks after their adventure in the underground world ended, Lian and Eris kept texting and visiting each other. Both of them give each other support and encouragement in their lives.

Lian continues to learn magic from Eris and shows promising progress, while Eris continues her research on the underground world and her increasingly powerful magical abilities. The two also share happy moments together, exploring the world and enjoying delicious food and drinks.

However, they also face challenges in their own lives. Lian must learn to overcome the anxiety and fear she experienced during their adventure, whereas Eris must find a way to help friends in the underground world who are still trapped there.

However, with persistence and support from each other, Lian and Eris overcome these obstacles and grow stronger. Their relationship is also growing, and they end up confessing their feelings of love for each other.

Eventually, Lian and Eris decide to return to the underground world to help the people who are still trapped there. With magic power and a powerful spirit, the two of them together lead the way out of the deadly labyrinth and bring everyone to the surface.

Their adventure in the underground world may have come to an end, but Lian and Eris know that they can always rely on each other to overcome whatever obstacles may lie ahead of them, and they are ready to face the future together.

They arrive at ground level safely and find themselves in a vast prairie. The sunrise and the warm sunlight touched their faces, adding a new spirit into their steps.

Lian turned to look back, finding out if there were any signs of the underground world around her. However, he only saw a beautiful and calming scene around him. There was no sign of darkness or danger.

Eris looked at Lian and smiled gently. "What are you looking for, Lian?" tanyakanya.

Lian shook her head, "Nothing. I just felt weird, it seemed like the whole adventure was just a dream."

Eris smiled again, "It wasn't just a dream, Lian. It´s real. And you made it through."

Lian pondered for a moment, recalling everything that had happened during their adventure. He smiled, felt relieved and grateful that he was not alone in facing the danger.

The two of them continued on their way, seeing the beautiful scenery around him. They don't know what will happen next, but they know that they will face it together.

Finally, they arrived at a small town where they found an inn. After bathing and eating, they sat together in front of the campfire, pondering over everything they had experienced during their adventure.

Lian looked at Eris and smiled. "Thank you, Eris. I won't be able to survive without you."

Eris looked at Lian with soft eyes. "No need to thank you, Lian. We help each other."

Lian pondered for a moment, then decided to take the risk. "Eris, are you going back to the underworld?"

Eris smiled and shook her head. "No, Lian. I gotta go. But remember, we can always meet again someday."

Lian smiled, knowing that they would meet again sometime in the future. He said goodbye to Eris and hoped she would always be okay.

After Eris leaves, Lian decides to return home. He knew that there were many things he would have to face in the future, but he was confident that he would be able to deal with them well, especially with the experience and friendship he gained during his adventure in the underground world.

On the way home, Lian and Eris discuss their experiences in the underground world. Lian was surprised by Eris's courage and strength in the face of the threats and dangers there. Meanwhile, Eris thanks Lian for helping him during their trip.

After several hours of walking, they finally arrived at Lian's house. The Lian family was very surprised and happy to see their son back. Lian recounts everything that happened during her disappearance, including her adventures in the underworld.

Lian also meets Eris and is impressed by her magical abilities. Eris reveals that she has some magic skills that she learned from her witch father.

After staying a few days at Lian's house, Eris felt that it was time for her to return to where she came from. He promises Lian to keep their relationship and may come visit again in the future.

Before Eris leaves, she gives Lian an object she calls a "magic crystal". He said that the crystal can give magic power to anyone who has it. Lian was shocked and thanked for the gift.

When Eris leaves, Lian feels sad and longs for their adventure together in the underground world. However, he also felt excited to restart his life and use the new power provided by that magic crystal. He was convinced that his next adventure would be waiting for him in the future.
