A Magical Tale: The Peerless Summoner

Chapter 174: Declining the king's request



Not long, they arrived at the hall where the king was staying.

Then in front of them could be seen the king seated on a throne with an arrogant look in his face.

When Helena and her friends arrived in front of the king, they respectfully bowed.

Then they straightened themselves back to look at the king.

The king then said "Girls, I have been hearing about what you all have been doing."

"Oh" Helena uttered.

She then asked "Can the king tell me what we have been doing?"

Hahaha!

The king laughed.

He then said "You have been coming back with kids from places only known to you."

He then continued by asking "Where did you bring those children from?"

"Well, from shrines that belong to witches" Helena replied.

"Hmm. So, you are that powerful to fight witches all by yourselves?" The king asked with shock in his tone.

"Yes, king" Helena answered.

"Hmm. Then tell me, how were you able to do it?" The king asked.

"Well, there is nothing too mysterious about the way that we overpowered and killed those witches. We were only at the same spellcasting level. So, that was how I was able to simply destroy the ones that we came across." Helena answered.

"Hmm. Alright." The king said.

He then asked "Where are you girls from?"

"Well, from a society that train people to become powerful magical warriors" Helena answered.

"Alright." The king said.

He then asked "Can you girls become my guards' magical trainers? I will pay you girls heavily."

"I am sorry, Your Lordship. We can't do what you requested from us. We are to return to our society as we have been away from it for too long" Helena answered.

"No. You can't reject my request. You have to do it" The king said.

Then before Helena could speak, he asked "Alright. What about for six months?"

Helena shook her head to reject.

"No. Don't do that yet. What about three months?" The king asked.

Helena then spoke "Your Majesty, I am sorry. I can't agree to your request. We have to return to the society that we came from or they would become excessively worried about us"

"Hmm." The king uttered, looking at them with an angry gaze appearing in his eyes.

He then made some signals at his guards.

Once he did so, the guards behind Helena nodded their heads and then moved on to close the door to enter into the hall that they were all in.

Helena and the rest saw what the guards were doing and then respectfully asked "Your majesty, what is this that you are doing?"

"Well, since any of you won't agree to my request, then you all should be ready to be imprisoned here for as long as the flames of life will burn within you." The king said angrily.

Helena then produced a smile in her face and asked "Do you think that you can keep us in here forever? Don't you know that many powerful spellcasting experts from the society that we are from will come here to scatter your kingdom just to set us free?"

Hahaha!

The king raucously laughed once again.

He then said "I don't believe that you are that important to them. So, I am not wary about anyone from your society coming here to wreak havoc and devastation."

Helena who still retained her smile said "Well, even though I am not that important to them and they don't come for me, I can set myself free from here. Nothing in here can hold me back from living"

Once Helena said that, the king's eyes glowed.

"Oh really?" He asked.

He then continued "Let me see what you can do to leave here"

Helena shook her head with a smile appearing in her face.

She then said "Your majesty, I am going to destroy your palace and everything else around it if you try to carry on with what you have in mind."

The king only smiled upon hearing what Helena said.

He then spoke with pride and haughtiness in his tone "I have tens to hundreds of thousands of soldiers under me. So, what can you really do to that number of soldiers even if you are extremely powerful."

Helena smiled.

"Well, I have something with me that can level all this place at once." She said.

Hahaha!

The king laughed again.

He then said "Bring it out. Let me see if it can do as you said."

Helena however only smiled.

She then asked "Do you really want me to? If I bring it out, you might regret ever asking me to"

When Helena said this, the king only grinned before shaking his head.

"I said that you can bring it out. Let me see if it would amaze me to the point of horrifying me." He said.

"Okay." Helena said with a nod of her head.

Then she produced her modified beast storage bag and brought out Vinna.

Once Vinna came out from within the beast storage bag, she roared, instantly causing the roof of the palace to blast away into the far distance.

So, just like that, the palace became roofless.

Helena then looked at her friends and immediately said "Let's leave here"

Once she said so, Lydia and the rest nodded their heads.

Then Lauren caused her wings to expand out from her back which she used to fly towards the entrance gate that the guards earlier closed.

Once she arrived before that gate after using her wings to deflect the arrows and spears that were launched at her by the guards there, she used her powerful lustrous wings to heavily blow them away and then break the gates open.

Immediately she did so, she landed back to the ground with her massive wings retracting back into her shoulders.

When Helena and the rest arrived a few moments later by her side, Helena tapped Lauren by her shoulder and said "Good job Lauren"

Lauren nodded her head with a smile in her face.

Then she dashed along with Helena and the rest out of that broken gate to the palace's outer courtyard.

As soon as they arrived there, they came across numerous guards who were stationed there and could be seen pointing their weapons at them.

"Deborah, please shove these guys away for us" Helena said while Deborah nodded her head with a smile appearing in her face.

She then suddenly shot into the air immediately after the wings at her back expanded out. Then with a single flap of her immense glowing wings , raging currents of air capable of stripping away a really large and thick layer of earth suddenly appeared and moved with a vast tearing power towards the guards in it path, instantly shoving all of them hundreds of feet away.

Once they were blown away, with the tyrannical wind currents moving on to fully destroy the gates and fence surrounding the palace, Helena and her friends appeared in the street that the palace was located and began to run off at the highest speeds that they could muster using Quick Movement spells on themselves.contemporary romance

At the moment, the king who was looking at Vinna was shocked to the core of his being. He had never seen any beast as large as this before in his life, or have heard from people or have seen in old books that had records of many things that once existed in the far past, like many million years ago.

After sometime that Vinna stared fiercely at the king, inducing great fear in his heart and horror in the whole of his being, it suddenly shot away to return to Helena who she could see had run off into the far distance with a powerful movement spell that she casted on herself.

Helena and her friends who had run off into the far distance stopped where they were. Then Helena quickly produced the beast storage sack for Vinna to go into it.

Once Vinna did so and Helena sealed the sack, she returned it back into her artifact storage sack and continued dashing at great speeds with her friends into the far distance.

After sometime that they had left the palace far behind, they entered another route to go to that area where that hairpin showed them that the witch who was it owner was staying.

However, since the place was really far, they had to stop somewhere to recover their lost Aetha energy, as they had expended everything in their Aetha veins to make sure the Quick Movement spells that they each casted on themselves continued operating.

Seated in the cross-legged position behind a building in a long row of buildings that looked old, Helena, Lydia and Lucretia began to inhale, trying their best to quickly recover their lost Aetha energy. However, Lauren and Deborah didn't do as Helena and the rest were doing at the moment, since they didn't use Aetha energy but their bloodline power to control their wings and grant them the ability of flight.

After sometime, Helena stood to her feet from her cross-legged position on the ground and then said to the girls around her "Let's go"
