A Magical Tale: The Peerless Summoner

Lauren and Deborah who didn't know what Helena and Lucretia were talking about looked on with a perplexed expression in their face.

Lauren then proceeded to ask "What's summoning that you guys are talking about?"

"Well, recall that many hours ago when my sister was battling Anissa and this dreadfully powerful invisible presence appeared, it was actually a powerful and terrifying spirit from another world that was summoned to our world. So this spirit will possess or dwell in the body of it Summoner and grant them the powers or abilities that they requested from it." Helena said.

She then spoke further by saying "I believe my sister summoned the spirit of strength to give her immense physical strength. So that was how she was able to launch tremendously strong physical strikes at Anissa"

"Wow. So there is something else called Summoning? I never knew. I still need to know a lot of things." Deborah said and grinned.

"Same here" Lauren said.

She then spoke further by asking "Senior Helena, how do we do it?"

"Well, there are invocation words that we can utter to summon them. They are like spells too, but are kinda long." Helena replied.

"Oh. So those invocation words are like spirit summoning chants?" Deborah asked.

"Yes" Lucretia answered.

"That's awesome. I am going to learn that too along with my bloodline powers." Lauren said while Lucretia nodded her head.

Lucretia then said to Helena "So, what's your next move, Helena? What do you plan to do?"

"I don't really know for now. But what I can say is that I will keep practicing spellcasting to become adept at it. Then not forgetting body building and combat training, I will keep building my body till it gets stronger, and then my combat prowess till it has reached a stage where I would be regarded as an highly skilled formidable warrior."

"Then sometimes in the future, I will be able to summon those Calaendrian spirits into my body. Not just one, but at least nine to many dozens of them, even though it is a fully established fact that Summoners can only summon less than nine spirits into their bodies, or their bodies might explode into bits."

"So, those are just the plans that I think I may have for now. To spiritually develop and physically build myself" Helena replied with a smile.

She then asked Lucretia "What about you? What are your plans?"

"Well, same as you. To develop myself to a stage where I will become powerful and dreadful." Lucretia answered with a smile in her face.

Helena nodded.

She then said "I think it's time for you girls to leave. I want to practice. You girls should go practice too. So shoo!"

Lauren, Deborah and Lucretia smiled.

"Yea. It's time to go. Let's go train ourselves to become powerful magical warriors." Deborah said with a smile while the others nodded.

Then they stood to their feet to leave her room.

As soon as they left, Helena sat on the ground in the cross-legged position.

Then before she could do anything, she suddenly heard the voice of the primordial spirit of Chaos, Might and Reborn ring out in her head.

"Helena, congrats on your battle victory" It said.

"You! You abandoned me. You are just coming now to offer your not-needed congratulatory greetings. I don't want it. Keep your congratulations to yourself" Helena said.

"Are you angry at me?" The spirit asked.

'Yes. You claimed to have future-gazing power but didn't come to warn me of an impending doom that will make me sorrowful and full of anguish and bitterness in all my life.'

'What if I didn't make friends with Lydia that told me about Jennifer's evil plan for me, I could have been struck with an evil attack of hers that will definitely turn me into a magical cripple. I would have become useless, miserable and empty for the rest of my entire life.'

'But fortunately for me, some unseen forces in the world that didn't want that to happen, made me stumble into Lydia who I helped and then told me that shocking secret in return" Helena answered with anger radiating off of her inner voice as she spoke to the the spirit in her head.

'Calm down, Helena. Of course I had a future glimpse of the battle that will occur between you and that girl that you spoke about, and then the definite outcome if you hadn't met that girl that told you about your opponent's wicked plans for you.' The spirit said.

'Oh. So you chose to remain silent about it? Why didn't you tell me? I thought that you wanted something good for me?' Helena asked.

'Yes. That's the thing, Helena. I wanted you to be struck by that evil attack. So, I chose to remain silent about it so would be hit by it. But like you said earlier, some powerful unseen force in the world which I don't know if it actually exist, tried to alter the future that I got a glimpse of by causing you to come across that girl, Lydia, in your path.' The spirit said.

Once the Primordial Spirit of Chaos, Might and Reborn said that, Helena's body visibly shook in shock, while her eyes fully widened in amazement and puzzlement from what it said.

'Why? What's your reason for saying that?' Helena questioned inwardly with her brows furrowed.

***

- Planet Uygostria -

Within a particular massive building that seemed to be made from only jade, could be seen Jennifer whose body lied on a tall platform that had a large inscription of a strange pattern on it surface which glowed softly in alternating colors of light.

Then around this platform that was made from crystals could be seen a few blue-skinned and deep blue-haired people.

These people were members of the iIlinoith race. A race known for their Water Manipulation abilities and their powerful inventions to cause mass regeneration and mass destruction.

Luinaela looked at her older sister, Thakeela, and asked "She should wake anytime soon"

"Certainly. Then we can know what's wrong with her and do our best to help her." Thakeela said while Luinaela nodded her head.

Atchu!

Someone suddenly sneezed.

Then Thakeela and Luinaela quickly turned their heads to look in the direction where the sneeze came from.

They then saw that Jennifer had woken.

"She has woken. Our healing inventions never fails. But I wonder who beat her so hard like that it took a lot from our healing crystal platform to heal her wounds. Maybe she could tell us" Thakeela said while Luinaela nodded her head.

Someone from the Ilinoith race then walked towards where Jennifer lied upon.

At the moment, Jennifer had to stood to her feet and was looking around in shock of where she was.

"Who are you people and where is my mom?" She directly questioned with a sharp gaze in her eyes.

"Your mom? We don't know where she is. We found you lying on the ground before our building. Someone must have dropped you there. Maybe that person was your mom and then probably took off to do something. She might come back very soon for you" The person from the Ilinoith race said.

"You found me on the ground before this building that we are in?" Jennifer asked in shock.

"Yes." That person answered.

Jennifer's eyes widened.

'But where would she go? Why would she just drop me on the ground like that? Is something wrong with her? Is she okay?' She asked herself numerous questions inwardly.

She wondered why her mom would drop her on the ground and go like that without leaving a note or anything to tell her about where her whereabout or what she had gone off to do.

'I hope she is okay. You have to stay strong mom, your daughter is coming for you' Jennifer said inwardly.

She then recalled how she was been beaten by Helena and her eyes brilliantly blazed with anger.

"Hey. Calm down. You are in safe hands here, miss. We won't harm you." The person from the Ilinoith race who was in front of her quickly said.

The Ilinoith being thought that Jennifer's eyes sparked with wrath from a thought that they had probably done something wrong to her.

"No. I am not angry at you people." Jennifer said with the anger in her eyes quickly disappearing.

She then said further in an appreciative tone "Thank you very much for helping me recover from my grievous injuries and my impending death. If not for you guys, I should have died. You brought me in regardless of who or what I am and helped me to totally heal without demanding a single dime from me. So for that, I am grateful and will eternally be."

"It's okay, Outsider. You didn't need to mention that. It's in our race to help people who are injured, stranded or lost. We believe that a single, small act of goodness exercised or done for anyone will always find a way to return back to us. That's the belief our race." The person said.

Jennifer nodded her head with a smile in it.

She then bowed to them.

When she straightened herself, her brows wrinkled as a thought suddenly surfaced in her mind.

Then she proceeded to ask "I hope I am not asking for too much. Can you please find a way to cloak me or my presence from someone?"

"I have to conceal myself from this person as this person is my enemy and seriously wants me dead. I beg you." Jennifer said in a begging tone and with none of her pride, arrogance and haughtiness emitting from her.
