Klein turned back and smiled at the blurry crowd: "Don't worry, we will bring the light back."
As they step deeper into the abyss, the surrounding environment becomes increasingly harsh, with strange creatures and suffocating atmosphere testing their will and strength every step of the way. However, whenever they feel desperate, the words and trusting eyes from ordinary people can always ignite a spark of hope in their hearts.
"We are not just fighting for ourselves." Klein said silently in his heart, and the holy sword became more radiant because of his belief.
"Hold on, the light is always ahead." Ivan followed closely, and the holy shield emitted a warm glow to protect the team.
"This power... is ancient and powerful." Su Mo whispered, her eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the darkness and find traces of the unknown existence.
As they went deeper, a huge figure slowly appeared at the end of the darkness. It was a kind of terror and majesty that could not be described in words. It was that ancient existence. Its eyes were like black holes, revealing hundreds of millions of years of loneliness and anger, staring at these uninvited guests.
"Finally...does any human dare to come here?" The voice of the ancient existence echoed throughout the abyss, both asking and talking to himself.
"We are here, for this world, for the balance of light and darkness." Klein stood still, holding the holy sword high, his words full of determination and unyielding.
"Balance? Ridiculous. A small life that thinks it can fight against fate." The ancient existence smiled scornfully, and then an irresistible force surged towards the four of them.
Just as everyone was trying their best to resist, a subtle fluctuation flashed on Klein's holy sword. It was a resonance coming from the depths of time and space. Klein's heart moved, and he realized that this might be the key.
"Our faith comes from the hearts of everyone who believes in the light! Not just us, but also them -" Before Klein could finish his words, images of ordinary people on the road appeared around the four of them, including the smiling faces of children, The gratitude of the rescued traveler, the tears of the old man, and the cry of the young woman.
This power, condensed by the beliefs of countless people, miraculously competed with the ancient existence, causing it to show a hint of shock.
"How... is this possible?" the ancient existence whispered, looking no longer so arrogant for the first time.
"Because we are not lonely warriors, we are the hope of everyone." Sebastian said solemnly, the weapon in his hand shining with unprecedented light.
Stirred by faith and courage, the abyss began to tremble. The ancient existence seemed to feel some kind of threat, and its eyes wavered for the first time.
Just as the two sides were in a stalemate, Klein suddenly remembered the old man's words: "Faith and courage will guide your path." He closed his eyes and felt the call of every soul with his heart, and a pure and powerful force of light came over him. It gathered inside him and finally exploded.
"For the light!" Klein shouted, and the holy sword slashed into the darkness. A bright light tore through the abyss and directly hit the heart of the ancient existence.
At that moment, the entire abyss was trembling, and then gradually collapsed, the ancient seal was re-strengthened, and the existence roared unwillingly, and finally fell silent.
When all the dust settled, Klein and the others stood there, their auras weak but their eyes full of determination and relief.
"We...did it." Alvin murmured, in disbelief.
"Yes, the light is never far away, as long as there are people who are willing to believe and fight for it." Su Mo chuckled, with a smile full of happiness for the rest of his life.
"Now, it's time to fulfill our promise and return to those who are waiting for us." Sebastian looked towards the road he came from, his eyes flashing with longing for home.
The four of them supported each other and embarked on their return journey. Behind them, the abyss fell asleep again, and the seeds of light sprouted quietly in every once-desperate heart.
"Look, they're back!" The child in the familiar town was the first to spot the figure in the distance and shouted excitedly.
The residents of the town poured out, their faces full of anticipation and gratitude. When Klein and his group approached, the crowd automatically separated into a path, and eyes of awe and love accompanied them as they moved forward.
"You did it, our hero!" The old man stepped forward and held Klein's hand tightly, his eyes full of pride and relief.
"This is not our personal victory, but a common victory for all those who believe in the light." Klein responded, his voice calm but full of power.
Surrounded by everyone, they shared stories about their journeys. Those fragments of courage, sacrifice and faith inspired everyone. At this moment, Klein knew that new challenges and adventures would eventually come again, but they were no longer afraid.
"As long as the light is still in your heart, nothing is impossible." Klein looked at the night sky, where the stars were shining brightly, as if they were also celebrating.
"Klein, have you really encountered that ancient legend? What does it look like?" A curious young man squeezed into the crowd and asked impatiently.
Klein smiled, looked around at the eager faces, and spoke slowly: "It is ancient and powerful, and is a witness to time and space. But more importantly, we found that no matter how powerful the existence is, it cannot erase the light in people's hearts. .”
"Then how did you defeat it? Do you have any secret skills?" Another voice sounded, this time it was a young girl, with admiration shining in her eyes.
Sebastian took a step forward, patted the girl's head gently, and said with a smile: "A secret skill? Maybe you can say that. Our greatest strength comes from every ordinary person who believes in light and delivers hope. Yes Their trust and support have created our strongest armor.”
"Just like the old man we met and the villagers who still have hope in difficult times, they made us understand that heroes are not only about fighting and winning, but also about protection and inheritance." Ivan added that his There was warmth in the words.
"And don't forget the young woman who shouted loudly before we set off. Her courage is also part of us." Su Mo said softly, with a gentle light flashing in his eyes.
"So, the real secret is the belief of heart-to-heart, and every small but persevering soul." Klein concluded, his eyes were deep, as if he could penetrate the night sky and see the farther future.
"So it turns out that it is everyone's common belief that creates miracles." The young man suddenly realized, and there were also thoughtful whispers from the crowd around him.
"But the adventure is not over yet, right?" At this time, a middle-aged man asked, with both expectation and worry on his face.
Klein nodded and his expression became serious: "Yes, the battle between light and darkness will never end. Every victory is temporary tranquility. There will be more unknown challenges waiting for us on the road ahead."< br>
"However, with you and everyone in this world, we have infinite courage to face it." Sebastian's words were filled with determination, which deeply inspired everyone present.
"So, what are you going to do next? Will you continue to travel and look for new adventures?" A little boy asked with longing, his eyes sparkling with curiosity about the unknown.
Klein lowered his head and looked at the little boy tenderly: "First we will rest and repair the wounds, and then, yes, as long as there are places in the world that need light, we will continue to move forward. But next time, maybe it will be you The story of everyone’s courage and kindness can light up a sky. ”
"Yes, light belongs to everyone, and everyone can be their own hero." Ivan continued, and his smile infected everyone present.
As the night deepened, the crowd slowly dispersed, leaving long shadows in the moonlight. They supported each other. Although their steps were tired, their hearts were full of strength and hope.
"The road home is always the warmest." Su Mo sighed softly, her sight seemed to travel across the distance and saw the outline of home.
"I hope that next time I set off, I can have more partners with me." Sebastian looked at the night sky, full of expectations.
"Until the end of the world, light will last forever." Klein repeated their vows softly. It was not only an expectation for the future, but also an affirmation of past experiences.
Behind them, the town gradually returned to tranquility, with only the rustling of the leaves in the breeze, seeming to whisper the story of the hero and the new chapter to come.
"So, where will the next adventure be waiting for us?" Klein looked at his companions with a smile, his words full of expectations and challenges.
"Who knows? Maybe at the next dawn, or maybe on the other side of the distant stars." Ivan responded with a smile, his eyes firm and far-reaching. "Yes, no matter when and where, as long as there is light in your heart, the road will naturally be at your feet." Su Mo chuckled, his eyes shining with desire for the unknown.
"However, before that, we have to deal with the matter at hand first." Sebastian reminded, with a hint of imperceptible seriousness in his tone. "The defense of the town still needs to be strengthened. After all, we cannot guarantee that other threats will not sneak up."
Klein nodded in agreement: "Sebastian is right. Ivan, you and Su Mo are responsible for assisting the residents of the town and teaching them basic self-defense techniques. And I will visit the old man to learn more about this land. The history and legends, maybe you can find more clues about the dark creatures.”
"No problem, Klein." Ivan and Su Mo agreed in unison, the light in their eyes showing their enthusiasm and sense of responsibility for the mission.
Just as the four of them were preparing to split up, a young woman walked over in a hurry, looking anxious. "I'm sorry, are you the heroes who just returned from the abyss?" she asked breathlessly.
Klein stopped and responded gently: "Yes, madam, how can I help you?"
"My child, he never came back after venturing into the forest a few days ago. I heard that you have experienced many incredible things, and I thought that maybe you could help find him." The woman's voice was full of prayer.
Klein looked at the woman's expectant eyes and his heart softened: "We will do our best, madam. Please tell us first where your child last appeared and any of his characteristics."
The woman nodded gratefully and recounted the child's information in detail. After Klein and others recorded it, they decided to use this as their new starting point.
"It seems that we don't have to wait too long, a new adventure is already here." Klein half-joked.
"This is our life, Klein, it is always full of variables and challenges." Sebastian shrugged and smiled.
After a brief exchange, the four people immediately plunged into the new task. On the way to the old man's residence, Klein thought to himself: "Every challenge is a test of our faith. But as long as the light remains, hope will never die."
At the same time, every corner of the town is echoing with stories about Klein and his group. Their deeds, like the spring breeze, quietly awaken the courage and hope in everyone's heart.
As the night deepened, several travelers sat together in a tavern in the town. One of them held a wine glass and said mysteriously: "Have you heard? It is said that those heroes not only defeated the monsters in the abyss, , and now we have to go to the forest to find the missing child.”
"Is this really true?" A person next to him asked in surprise, "They are simply legends, legends living among us."
"Legends? In my opinion, they are more like the light in each of our hearts that doesn't want to be extinguished." The old man sitting in the corner said slowly. His eyes looked through the window as Klein and others disappeared. direction, eyes flashing with admiration and expectation.
The night wind blows by, carrying unfinished stories and new hopes, indicating that the battle between light and darkness will never end on this continent, and Klein and the others are the most dazzling light points in this long journey.
"Who knows, friend." The tavern owner interjected with a mysterious smile on his face, "In this world full of magic and miracles, everything is possible. Since Klein and his friends can return from the abyss, , finding a missing child may be just the beginning of another legend for them.”
There was a burst of exclamation and discussion among the crowd. Everyone was attracted by the unfinished story, and a blazing fire of curiosity was ignited in their hearts.
"Think about it, if that child is safe, it's because he encountered some strange creature or was protected by some ancient magic..." A young adventurer's eyes flashed with excitement, as if he had already been in the world. In that mysterious forest.
"Then they want to negotiate with the forest spirit, or solve a mystery that has not been solved for thousands of years?" Another audience member asked, completely immersed in the situation he imagined. "Hey, don't be so mysterious," an experienced old hunter shook his head and joined the discussion. "Although the forest is large and dangerous, it also hides countless creatures. Maybe the child just strayed into a certain forest. The territory of the lost beast is protected." (End of Chapter)
