A Magical Tale: The Peerless Summoner

Chapter 71: Retrieving the blade

Lydia contorted her face.

"Helena, leaving is going to be hard. Especially when she sees me with you, it's going to be a tough time for me too. And you know that I am not as strong as you. I won't be able to withstand her troubles. I hope you can understand" Lydia said.

"Hmm. Well, you still have to leave there if you want me to retrieve you blade for you. If not, I am sorry." Helena said while Lydia began to contemplate on what to do next.

As she was pondering, the large, wolf-like magical beast suddenly appeared in the distance from where it was heavily knocked to and began dashing back towards the both of them.

"Make up your mind fast!" Helena shouted.

"Alright. I would leave" Lydia quickly said.

Immediately Lydia said this, a smile crept up Helena's face. At least, if she couldn't become good friends with Lydia, she had successfully torn away one of Jennifer members. And she knew how badly affected Jennifer's state of mind would be.

"Leave here this moment. Give me some space to handle the beast" Helena said hurriedly.

Lydia nodded her head.

Then she ran away to stay at one of the many interconnected routes and watch Helena fight the beasts from there.

ROAARR!!!

The beast roared in rage and then exhaled a large stream of fire at Helena when it got to a few feet in front of her.

"Galaro Windus"

Helena quickly said and then pointed at the stream of fire that was raging towards her.

As soon as she said so, with her palm aimed out at the raging stream of fire which caused the ground to actually melt, a strong gale of wind suddenly manifested in the cave and rushed towards the stream of fire.

No explosion occurred except that both attacks canceled out, leaving thick fumes that obscured their visions.

Then before the beast could produce another long and large stream of fire at her, Helena who knew the beast's position quickly punched out at the beast as she uttered a solid attack-type spell at the same time.

Immediately she did so, a large amount of blue energy erupted her fist and rapidly condensed into a large fist that shot towards the beast.

Bang!

The beast was struck by the fist and was sent flying into the distance at a great speed.

Once the beast was knocked away again.

Helena began to breathe deeply.

She wanted to quickly gather more Aetha energy within her before the beast would dash back towards her. She had used more than half of her Aetha energy in that one attack.

When she felt that her energy level had raised a little above half, she actually went for the wolf-like beast that she knocked far away from where she stood.

And as she dashed towards the beast, she aimed her palm at the beast and uttered a weapon-manifesting spell.

Once she did so, a form of power erupted from her palm in the form of a resplendent stream of light which then condensed in the next instant into a large spear that shot at a great speed towards the beast.

Puchi!

The spear fully pierced through the wolf's body to the back. But it faded away in the next instant, opening up a large wound in it body which revealed what was behind it.

As soon as the solid spear condensed from magical energy vanished, purple blood began to ooze out of it wound in large amounts. And once the blood which released hot vapors got to the ground, the ground rapidly turned molten.

The wolf-like beast growled from the intense pain that it was suffering.

However, the beast who had both rage and intense suffering in it eyes still tried it best to move towards Helena to kill her.

But before the beast could make a move at her, Helena quickly placed her free hand on the ground and uttered another weapon-manifesting spell.

Once she did so, a form of power moved from within her and through that hand to the ground.

Immediately this power connected with the ground, the floor of the cave around her actually cracked in numerous places before hundreds of fragments of it broke away and floated into the air where they combined to form many long spears that then shot out like furiously fired arrows at the wolf-like beast.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!...

The numerous arrows of earth heavily struck the beast and pierced into it body to cause profuse bleeding, and at the same time due to their solidness and the speed that they moved at, they successfully shattered many of the bones in it body to pieces. Also, the skull in it head shattered into splinters upon being tyrannically struck by many spears formed from the shreds of earth.

When Lydia saw that Helena had killed the wolf-like beast, she quickly dashed from where was she was towards the beast.

With one of her hands pointed at the beast as she ran towards it, the blade in the beast's stomach began to tremble before it finally shot out through one of the numerous holes that the spear formed from earth made into it body.

Swoosh!

The blade shot through the air and appeared very fast in front of Lydia who grasped it with a smile in her face.

Then she stopped running and walked towards the place that Helena stood.

When she arrived in front of Helena, she said in a sincere tone "Helena, thank you very much"

"No need to mention" Helena said.

Then she asked "But why did you come into this place when you can only use teleportation magic? Isn't that sentencing yourself to your death?"

"I know. My teleportation magic at this level is only useful in combat against people, not high-speed magical beast at the moment. But when I get to a stage where I would be able to make my blade pass through all forms of matter, I would be able to go against beast them." Lydia said happily.

She was happy that she had gotten her blade back.

Helena looked at the blade in her hand which faded in and out of visibility and asked in a curious tone " Your blade, what's it called? And where did you get it?"

Helena had taken a fancy to the blade and wanted one just like that.
