A Magical Tale: The Peerless Summoner

Chapter 173: Forced invitation



After Lydia said that, Helena nodded her head in agreement.

She then said "Alright."

Then looking at the kids before her, she said "Alright kids, let me take you guys back to your parents"

A few hours later since they didn't come across any carriage driver and walked on foot, they finally arrived at the human settlement areas in the kingdom.

Looking at the kids, Helena said "Alright kids, you can find your way from here to parents' homes."

Once she said that, the kids nodded their heads.

Then they began to walk from there to return to their parent's homes.

When they left, Helena looked at Lydia and said "Let's visit the last shrine and hope that we would get what we want"

Lydia nodded her head.

Then they went to find a carriage driver that would lift them to the last place where a shrine was.

When they got there some hours later, they walked towards the shrine with readiness for battle in their eyes.

While Helena who was at the front shouted "Witch, if you are in there, come out now. I want to have a word with you."

However, there was no response.

The place was quiet as a graveyard.

Helena then looked at Lydia and said "Perhaps she also isn't in. She could have probably fled too. Or what do you think?"

Lydia exhaled.

"I think so too." She said.

She then continued by asking "Would you like to go in to check?"

"Yes. That is what I will have to do" Helena replied with a slight nod of her head.

"Alright. But you should be very careful" Lydia said.

"I will" Helena replied with a smile.

Then when she arrived at the door of the shrine, she forced it open and looked inside without stepping in first

She then saw kids within the cages in this shrine too.contemporary romance

Helena shook her head in disgust.

"Bastards!" She said angrily.

She then walked in to break open the cages. But first, she casted an Enchantment Demolishing spell to break away the spells that would have been casted upon the cages by the evil witch.

Bang! Bang! Bang!...

Then in the next second, bang sounds began to rampantly ring out.

A moment later when the bang sounds stopped, Helena went forward to one of the numerous wooden cages in the shrine to force them open.

She then began to help the kids out one after the other.

When she was done, she began to scan round the shrine to search for anything that she could use to magically trace the witch from this shrine to wherever she may be at.

Not long, she came across a hairpin.

Then she broke a smile in her face and went forward to take it.

When she came out of the shrine and casted a Fire Spell on it, burning it to ashes, she said to the kids whose eyes glowed with happiness "Kids, you are free now. It's time to return to you guys back to your parents. And I promise that the vile spawn that cut apart the bodies of the other kids that I saw in the shrine won't escape with their evilness. I will make sure to give them a taste of their own medicine."

The kids heard that and nodded their heads happily.

Then Helena began to lead them back to the human settlement areas in the kingdom where they would then find their ways back to their parents.

But as Helena was doing this, always returning with many dozens of kids, people had taken notice of her. Helena herself had realized this, but she didn't care.

When they eventually arrived at the large human settlement areas in the kingdom, Helena said to the girls behind her "Let's return to our room in the inn. I have something with me that I feel should definitely belong to that damned witch that fled from her shrine.

"Alright" Her friends said.

Then they returned to their room to allow Helena do what she had in mind.

When they arrived in the room, Helena who didn't have time to waste quickly sat in the cross-legged position to cast a tracking spell on the hairpin that she placed on the ground before her.

Once she finished uttering that particular type of spell, the pin began to glow in all colors of light before it became enclosed in a orb of light that shone with all the colors of light.

Immediately this happened, Helena stretched out her hand at the hairpin that was enclosed in a orb that emitted numerous brilliant colors.

As soon as she did so, the pin shot towards her hand and actually disappeared into her body.

Once this occurred, images began to move really fast in Helena's mind. It was like a really massive book that had different parts of the kingdom drawn into different pages that it possessed, was being rapidly flipped before Helena.

Not long, the image stopped somewhere which was an old, seemingly abandoned hall in the kingdom. Then when Helena focused more, the area where the hall was located appeared vividly in her mind. And still intensely focusing, the region where the area that the hall was situated appeared in her mind.

"Cool!" Helena said with a beautiful smile.

She then stretched out her hand once again and the pin which was enclosed in a orb of resplendent light shot out of it.

The looking at her friends who were also looking at her to see if she arrived at a particular place where the witch that they were looking for would be staying, she said "I have gotten the place where the bastard is hiding. Should we move now or you guys would want to rest a little bit before we finally set out on our killing mission."

"We can go now. Once we kill them, we can come back here to rest for some days before leaving this kingdom to the next kingdom to start our second and last witch-hunting mission." Lucretia said.

After Lucretia said that, the others nodded their heads in agreement to what she said.

"Okay. Then we set out." Helena said, quickly standing to her feet.

But once they came out of the inn, many men seated on armored horses and wore uniforms that made them look like warriors or imperial guards of the kingdom, could be seen arrogantly looking at them with indescribable expressions in their faces.

"What do you people want?" Helena asked fearlessly.

"We have heard news of what you and your friends have been doing. So, because of that, the king wants to see you. And it would be best for you and your friends to follow us, or you might not like what would happen to you all if you disobey the order of our king." A guard with a blue cape, indicating his rank, said with haughtiness in his tone.

"I am sorry I can't do that. I have things to do." Helena said without any form of fear in her tone.

The guards and people around heard what Helena said and they visibly shook in shock.

"Did you just disobey the order of the king?" The guard with a cape asked with anger in his tone.

"No. Or did I? Well, I didn't." Helena said.

She then continued "Actually, we have something to quickly settle. Once we are done, we would come to see your king"

Hahaha!

The guard burst into a loud, raucous laughter.

"You have something to do and 'would' come see our king when you have settled it? Haha! How impudent of you!" The guard said.

Lydia quickly approached Helena and said "Helena, let's go with these guards to see their king. Let's hear what he as to say before going on our mission"

"You want us to do that?" Helena asked.

"Yea. Sure." Lydia said.

Helena exhaled.

"Alright then" she said.

She then looked at the guard with a cape and said "Alright. Take me to your king."

The guard broke a smile in his face and said "Thank your stars that you changed your mind, or you would have regretted making that previous statement that you made"

Then turning his head away from her to look at the other guards behind him, he said "Bring these girls a carriage so that we can lift them to the king's palace."

Once he gave that order, a carriage was quickly brought for them.

"Here, enter the carriage so that we can lift you girls to the king's palace." The guard with a cape said.

Helena and her friends nodded their heads. Then they went into the carriage before it suddenly shot off at a high speed with the guards at the front to the where the kingdom was located.

About an hour later, they arrived at the king's palace.

Then just from the massive gate alone, they could easily tell that the kingdom was one that a lot of money was spent on in building.

When they came down from the carriage with the guards at the immense gate opening it wide for them to enter, they walked in with furrowed brows, as they couldn't really guess what they should be expecting in the king's palace.
