Chapter 55: Battle with Jennifer I


    "Can I also go back to my room? I would like to go and rest." Helena said.


    Deylina looked at her and asked "What really happened out there?"


    "Nothing, I was just tired" Helena said.


    "You weren''t tired. You didn''t have Aetha energy in you to fight." Deylina said angrily.


    Then before Helena could talk, Deylina asked "Where did your Aetha energy go?"


    Helena didn''t know how to respond.


    Then she felt that she had to tell Deylina the truth.


    "Ma''am, I am sorry. I turned My Aetha energy into an energy that my body could use to quickly do those squats" Helena said while looking down. She couldn''t look at Deylina in the face.


    "I thought as much. But why did you do that?" Deylina asked.


    "I wanted to impress you and so that we can move to other stuff other than squats" Helena said still facing down.


    Deylina looked at Helena and sighed.


    "You don''t need to impress me, Helena. You don''t have to impress anyone. I get that you want to leave the squats and make me teach you other things. But apart from having magic, you need to have a physically strong body. Okay. Imagine this scenario. You were fighting with another powerful enemy Spell Caster who might be a level or two levels above you. Both of you ran out of Aetha energy and so couldn''t generate magical attacks anymore. What would you guys do to take down the other. You both would eventually resort to physical battle. The one with a stronger body and possesses more skills would have all the advantage in the battle, as they would be able to deliver kicks and punches more heavier or deadly than yours." She said.


    "I think I have said enough. You can go. We would see again tomorrow when youe for training" Deylina said.


    Helena was surprised that Deylina didn''t get mad at her.


    She was expecting Deylina to probably beat her up or give her a great punishment. But she didn''t and just said that she should go.


    "Ma''am, I am very sorry if I had disappointed you with my actions." Helena said unhappily.


    "It''s okay, Helena. Don''t just do what you did another time. Am I clear?" Deylina asked.


    "Yes ma''am" Helena replied.


    "Good. You can go now." Deylina said.


    Then Helena turned to go to her room.


    On her way to her room, she met some girls on the way who looked at her with scorn in their eyes.


    "The bitch is getting a treatment that she doesn''t deserve. Chosen One my feet. So useless" A girl in the group of girls looking at Helena said in a harsh tone.


    Helena didn''t even spare her and the rest a nce.


    She just treated her speech as something said by a stupid person.


    "Why would you look at us when there is fear in your heart. You can''t do anything. So weak and useless." The girl said again.


    It was here that Helena stopped walking.


    Then she turned to face the girl who gazed at her with nothing but scorn in her eyes.


    Without uttering a spell, Helena stretched a hand out towards her and suddenly, a powerful st of air urred in front of the girl which sent her flying for many meters and then crashing into a pir.


    "Who''s the useless one?" Helena asked.


    Then she said further "you can''t even take or block a single weak attack. So useless"


    She then resumed walking back to her room. And as she walked gracefully to her room, none dared to curse at her. They just looked at her as she went to her room.


    When Helena arrived in her room, she went to lie in bed.


    She couldn''t do anything at the moment as she didn''t have a single wisp of Aetha energy in her body.


    Then after a long time of resting, she was able to recover some of her totally spent Aetha energy.


    She then began to practice the iplete spells that she studied from many of those books in the store that Sephia took her to.


    Some momentster, she ran out of Aetha energy.


    Then sheid back in bed again to recover her energy.


    After a great while, she stood to her feet to continue practicing.


    When she ran out of Aetha energy again, sheid in bed to rest so she could recover Aetha energy.


    So in this manner, Helena began to familiarize herself with many of the spells.


    ***


    A dayter...


    In the evening.


    Helena who didn''t leave her room at all to practice and familiarize herself with many magical spells was resting to recover her energy when her door was suddenly banged on.


    Once the bang sound was made instantly jolting up her from resting state, her eyes shone sharply.


    "Jennifer" She uttered and then exhaled.


    Then she opened the door to leave the room and appear before a girl who was taller than her, had ferocity on her eyes and adopted an arrogant posture like she was a god that can step on all creatures and crush them to death.


    "Do you want to fight me? Remember that you couldn''t beat me. You struggled to fight with me. So, I will advise that you just surrender and give up yourself as my ve. It would save you from the wicked beating that I would dish out at you." Jennifer said.


    Helena looked at her and said "Well, how do you know that I would just receive all the beating from you without me putting up a good fight. Who knows, it could be the other way around this time"


    Deylinaughed.


    "The other way around? You would beat me this time? You?" Deylina asked many questions at once and cackled.


    Then she said further "Please, don''t make meugh. A weakling like you should stop putting up a bold front before me. You should rush towards me to quickly be my ve. Haha"


    "You should be my ve instead. You have the fine qualities that a good ve would have." Helena said.


    Jennifer heard this and her gaze turned chilling.


    Instantly, without uttering a speech, she stretched her palm out towards Jennifer who also did the same.


    Arge ball of fire suddenly discharged from Jennifer''s hand and shot towards Helena.


    While Helena who also didn''t utter a word caused the manifestation of an unusually strong gale of wind that sted into the attack that Jennifer shot at her.


    An explosion didn''t ur. Instead, it was the ball of fire that rapidly cooled and then vanished when the strong gale-force wind impacted it.


    Bing exceedingly heated up, the powerful st of wind that Helena caused it appearance, raged like a furious dragon towards Jennifer who quickly prepared to unleash another attack to block it.


    Still not uttering a word, a thick and wide barrier of fire suddenly appeared before her, sessfully blocking the strongly heated, destructive wind currents.


    Jennifer quickly performed some gestures and arge blue disc that had ancient diagrams on it surface appeared below her feet and then lifted her high into the air.


    As soon as she reached a height of thirty meters in the air, she uttered "Relmia Limira Fiero"


    Then an invisible constrictive force suddenly came upon Helena, binding her in ce.


    Helena at the moment felt that she was wrapped up a thousand times in an invisible chain that emanated both intense chilling coldness and searing heat.


    Fraction of a secondter after the restraining force came upon her, arge pir of dark green fire suddenly appeared in the sky and plummeted at a great speed towards her.


    Helena''s eyes widened in dread and horror.


    She could feel death looming.


    Without thinking too much, she proceeded to use one of those iplete spells that she had familiarized herself with.


    And surprisingly without uttering it like as if she had mastered it, which was however due to the great danger that she felt, eight discs appeared at eight different points around her in the air.


    These discs which glowed brilliantly in a violet color and had many ancient texts on their surfaces suddenly brought down a tremendous force of suppression upon everything around Helena.


    As soon as this powerful uncanny force of suppression appeared, the force that bound her up vanished in an instant. While the pir of green-colored fire falling towards her from a great height in the air shattered into thousands of bits which rapidly dispersed in the next moment.


    And because she didn''t possess enough energy to sustain the spell that she created without uttering it, the eight discs that floated at eight different points in the air around Helena and radiated great profoundness, vanished in the next instant.


    Helena fell to her knees, tired and weak.


    She was beginning to look sickly pale after overconsumption of the Aetha energy in her body by the powerful attack of suppression that she unleashed.


    Fortunately, it wasn''t only her that was feeling extremely weak.


    Jennifer had also heavily taxed herself to produce that powerful attack that she earlier unleashed at Helena.


    She had used a Sky-level Spellcaster magical spell which she had mastered tounch that powerful attack at Helena. But unluckily for her, Helena who had familiarized herself with an Heaven-level Spellcaster magical spell was able to abruptly unleash it as a powerful attack without uttering it.


    Also, due to the tremendous suppressive force that was emanated by the magical attack when it appeared, Jennifer who was greatly weakened by her own attack suddenly fell to the ground from that height in the air, as the disc that was beneath her feet and caused her to float in the air instantly shattered apart due to the insanely powerful suppressive force that came upon all things to crush them into smithereens.
