Day 2.
I've been flying for quite a while now, there seems to be absolutely nothing up here.
Xania stops flying, expecting to fall for hours due to how long and far she's been flying upwards, but lands in mere seconds, surprising her.
Huh? Didn't I fly for so long? Why did I land so quickly?
Xania contemplates it for a moment before not caring about it as she has no clue.
Screw it, I gotta find a way out of here.
For the next couple hours, Xania tries multiple waves to get out such as running in a straight line for an hour at full speed, trying to pass by the floor, trying to fly into the floor, with all to no avail.
Screw it, it's not working at all…
For the next few hours, she sits down on the same spot, playing with her tail as she goes to sleep despite not feeling tired even though she played nonstop.
Day 3.
Wow, back in here again…
Xania, getting sick of the darkness already, tried harder to escape during the third day, coming up with new solutions each time with every one of them dialing.
Day 5.
Xania keeps trying as she hasn't even taken a rest, getting more desperate as each solution fails completely, with no sign of even getting close to succeeding.
Day 6.
Xania sits down on the floor having given up.
Even if I'm stuck here, I wished I could have some light…
As she wishes for some light, not expecting it, she suddenly sees a orb of light appear In Front of her, surprising her as she reaches out to touch it, causing her hand to pass through it easily.
Wow, what was that?
Xania keeps creating more orbs and playing around with them as she starts to easily master it, being able to shine herself and finding out that her wings and tails are black in color with her surroundings being actually pitch black in color despite having light shine on them.
As Xania keeps trying out her magic, she eventually discovers different types of magic, such as water, earth, fair, wind, light, spatial, special, healing and dark magic or at least that's what she names them, with her favourite being dark, spatial and earth magic since dark magic seems the most destructive, spatial magic can create portals and teleport but sadly not out of whatever area she's trapped in and earth magic being able to create structures in this empty world of hers.
Day 7.
Xania keeps messing around with her magic as she falls asleep, failing her previous attempts at escaping with magic and physical means the past few days.
Day 8.
Xania keeps playing around with magic as she discovers new things constantly such as combining magic to make a stronger attack
The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.
Say 9.
Xania discovers that magic such as light magic can create illusions and water magic can create ice as part of their ability as she experiments with them and discovers that all magics have their own specialities.
Day 10.
She continues experimenting with magic, trying to use it to break out and learning new things at the same time.
Day 20.
She keeps trying to break out using magic.
Why doesn't it work?! Screw it, if I keep attacking, it'll work eventually.
Day 30.
Screw it, the problem is probably my control over it, right?! If I get stronger then it'll suffice right?!
Day 100.
Xania keeps practicing her magic having lost track of time.
Day 150.
Xania faints due to mana deprivation.
Day 200.
Xania starts trying to attack her way out again,
Day 300.
Xania fails and gives up on breaking out through brute force.
Screw it, if I use spatial magic with wind magic along with my wings, I can fly far enough to reach out of here eventually right?!
Day 400.
Xania keeps flying in one direction, with her mana constantly increasing due to her constant usage of it.
Day 500.
Xania gives up and starts flying upwards instead.
Day 600.
Xania keeps flying as she faints, waking up hours later to find herself lying down on the ground.
Day 700.
Screw it, if I completely master this magic I may be able to get out of here.
Day 800.
Xania keeps practicing her magic, getting closer to mastering some.

Day 5000.

Day 7500.

Day 10,000.
Xania having mastered all the magic she knows, but still not being able to break out, gives up as she sits down hugging herself.
Day 10,001.
Xania keeps sitting down, not having moved an inch as she notices some magic being used despite not using any and immediately looks up, noticing a weird circle with words on it and a portal in the center of it.
What is this?
Xania shakes her head, thinking that even if she died, it wouldn't be as bad as her current fate as she steps through.
As she steps through, she finds herself covering her face, not used to the brightness despite it being in a dimly lit cave with other beings like her but with them being injured and some being nearly dead as they all kneel in her direction, with her being in the center on a slightly elevated circle shaped platform with the same circle and words she saw on the portal.
As Xania looks around, ignoring them due her joy for finally getting out after being trapped for over 10,000 days in that hellhole.
Demon lord! You're finally back!
The demon closest to her exclaims happily causing her attention to go back to them.
What's… going on?
Demon lord, you have no experiences of the world yet, but let me help explain it to you.
As the person In Front of her opens her mouth to speak again, they get interrupted by a sudden crash and shouting.
Demons, Stop running and come accept your fate! One of the people covered in armour exclaims as all the people kneeling down immediately surround her in a defensive stance while preparing to attack the people who keep entering the place despite being much weaker looking and fewer in numbers.
Who… is my ally?
We are your subordinates, while those knights are the ones trying to kill us. The person who was closest to her says, being the only one to remain by Xanias side while in a defensive pose against the invaders.
So, should I attack them?
If… if possible, I would like to ask that you help us. The person who she now recognises as a woman due to her being closer says while sounding somewhat ashamed.
Xania decides to try helping, not sure if she can do anything as she raises her hand at them to aim and prepares a couple weaker bolts of dark magic and shoot it at some of the invaders, each piercing through their armies and their bodies, killing them in a single shot, making Xania feel surprised and more confident at how weak they are compared to her.
As Xania sees the rest running towards them, she prepares more shots and starts shooting them nonstop, easily killing all of them while healing the beings who have a similar appearance to her.
As she kills all of them, the demons go back to kneeling towards her, with somewhat of a shocked expression at her strength as she finishes healing then all as they try to hide their expressions.
Demon lord!!! You're indeed going to be our saviour, you are definitely the strongest one ever!!
Huh? Can someone explain to me what is happening? Xania says, surprising everyone with how soft and gentle her voice sounds, not noticing it earlier due to being in pain from their injuries and the knights.
Very well, I am the current second strongest demon alive, I will be your assistant, my name is Anise.
Second strongest, then who's the strongest?
You ofcourse!
Oh, what a surprise.
How could it be a surprise? You're the demon lord so of course you're the strongest!
Demon lord? What's that?
All of the people around her look up at her, slightly surprised at her complete lack of knowledge before Anise snaps of her slightly shocked state and starts talking again.
If… you could follow me, I'll explain to you while you sit down.
Anise follows behind, the sight of everything even if it's just the cave walls, the smell of blood and sound of their footsteps all helping her realize the reality that she's finally out of the terrible place.
