Let's Train Heroine

Suddenly, the chamber trembled, and the stone door began to creak open. But as it did, a deep rumble echoed from the walls, and the stone panels they had been working with began to shift.

From each panel, the elemental symbols began to glow with a fierce light, and the objects they had placed started to levitate. The rocks, the water, the torch, and the feathers all floated into the air, swirling together in a vortex of elemental energy.

"What\'s happening?" Maris exclaimed, stepping back as the objects merged in the center of the room.

"We failed, although we slove the puzzle we didn\'t slove it in time." Lucan said as he remembered this scene.

The swirling elements coalesced into four distinct shapes, each one solidifying into a humanoid form. Before Lucan and Maris stood four elementals, each representing one of the elements they had just worked with. Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind—each one a towering figure of raw elemental power.

"They\'re the punishment for not solving it fast enough," Lucan said, "If we don\'t stop them, we\'re dead."

The elementals moved with surprising speed, their forms shimmering with raw energy. The Earth elemental stomped forward, causing the ground to quake, while the Fire elemental\'s flames flared dangerously, the heat unbearable even from a distance. The Water elemental surged like a tidal wave, and the Wind elemental whipped up a fierce gale, sending debris flying.

Lucan\'s mind raced. Without their powers, they stood no chance in a direct fight. "Maris, we need to use the environment—find a way to disrupt their connection to the elements!"

Maris nodded, her eyes scanning the chamber. "There must be a weakness. Something that ties them to this place!"

The Earth elemental was the first to strike, swinging a massive fist made of rock. Lucan barely dodged in time, the impact sending shards of stone flying. He scrambled to his feet, shouting to Maris, "The symbols! They\'re connected to the elementals—if we destroy the symbols, maybe we can weaken them!"

Maris was already moving, racing toward the Earth panel. "I\'ll take this one—find the others!"

Lucan moved to the Water panel, tipping over the basin. The water spilled across the floor, and the Water elemental\'s form rippled and weakened, its once-powerful waves reduced to a mere trickle.

The Water elemental, now barely holding its shape, made one last feeble attempt to strike at Lucan, but its attack lacked the force it had wielded before. Lucan dodged the watery tendril and kicked over the basin entirely, causing the remaining water to splash out and further weaken the elemental. It collapsed into a puddle, its essence dissipating into the air.

Maris had managed to smash through the Earth panel entirely. The Earth elemental, now nothing more than a mound of loose soil and crumbling rock, toppled over and disintegrated. She gasped for breath, wiping sweat from her brow, but there was no time to rest.

Lucan and Maris exchanged a quick, determined look as they turned their attention to the remaining elementals. The Fire and Wind elementals were still active.

Lucan rushed to the Wind panel, where the feathers floated gently above the symbols. He grabbed them and threw them to the ground, stomping on them until the symbols beneath cracked and splintered. The Wind elemental howled, a sound like a dying storm, as its form unraveled, the winds dying down until it was nothing more than a faint gust.

With the Wind elemental destroyed, only the Fire elemental remained. It was the fiercest of them all, its burning form still dangerous. Flames licked at the air, threatening to surge and consume everything in its path.

But Maris was already moving. She picked up the remnants of the water basin and hurled it at the Fire panel, dousing the symbols with what little water remained. The flames hissed and sputtered as the water evaporated, steam rising from the panel. The Fire elemental\'s flames flickered wildly, its form becoming unstable.

Lucan grabbed a nearby rock and, with all his strength, hurled it at the Fire panel. The rock collided with the symbols, shattering them completely. The Fire elemental let out a final roar, its flames exploding outward in a brilliant flash before extinguishing entirely.

The room fell silent, the oppressive heat dissipating as the Fire elemental\'s remnants faded into nothingness. Lucan and Maris stood amidst the rubble, breathing heavily. The stone door at the far end of the chamber, which had been slowly opening during their battle, now creaked fully open, revealing a passageway that led deeper into the temple.

Lucan bent over, hands on his knees, trying to catch his breath. "That... was too close," he panted.

Maris nodded, her expression a mix of relief and exhaustion. "We did it," she said, though her voice was heavy with fatigue. "But these trials... they\'re getting more dangerous. If we had our power then."

Lucan straightened up, his face serious. "But we don\'t have, so We have to stay sharp."

Maris looked toward the passageway ahead, her expression resolute. "Then we\'ll be ready. I believe, together, we can handle whatever comes next."

They stepped forward, passing through a very dark corridor. As they were going forward, Lucan thought of last trial.

In the game, Maris could come here with four male leads, each having a separate route. The last trial will determine which male lead accompanies Maris. While Lucan doesn\'t know what the last trial will involve, he knows that he and Maris will be sent to a pocket space where they must complete a task. The last trial should be challenging but not impossible or life-threatening.
