Chapter 132: Helping to expand their map


    "Okay. But how do we supply you with our Aetha energy?" Lucretia asked with a curious tone in her voice.


    "All of you shoulde behind me and ce your hands on my back." Helena replied.


    "Oh... Okay." Lucretia said.


    Then they came behind Helena and ced their hands on her back.


    Immediately after they did so, Helena said "Now, let out your Aetha energies from your palms. I will absorb them and make them mine so that I can use them to sustain the time-reversing spell that I want to cast."


    "Alright" The girls said at once with an understanding nod of their heads.


    Then they closed their eyes to focus on what they were about to initiate.


    As soon as they shut their eyes close, they focused within themselves upon the Aetha energies flowing within their Aetha veins like a stream.


    Then when they started concentrating on their Aetha energies, they made the energy circting in each of their Aetha veins to flow to their hands.


    Then when the energies flowed out of their hands and into Helena''s body, Helena guided them to her Aetha veins where they merged with hers.


    She then said in the next instant.


    "Tselma valmyr dezaro!"


    The instant that she said that, a wave of unexinable power suddenly erupted from her body and swept into the distance like a furious flood.


    Immediately this indescribable power gushed out out of her entire body and rushed into the distance within the organization, the hundreds of cracks made into the tiled floor of the building by the destructive power of the ravaging wind that Deborah unleashed, began to heal up.


    Not that it was actually healing, it was because the time affecting it was being reversed. Therefore, due to the reversal of time, all the fragments that were previously ripped or gashed away from it due to the extreme corporeal sharpness that emanated from the wind that Deborah unleashed, returned to where they were shredded away from and keyed back into those ces, with the lines at which they werecerated from rapidly fading away.


    However, since the Temporal Reversion spell was an iplete Heaven-level spell, the hundreds of gashes made into the tiled ground couldn''t totally disappear. Many still remained. Besides, Helena''s Aetha energy and the additional inputs from her friends weren''t enough in any way to sustain the spell that she casted for a longer time.


    At the moment, Helena and the girls were feeling so weak that they could copse to the ground. That iplete Heaven-level spell that Helena casted had drained them of all their Aetha energies.


    The woman holding the scepter then walked forward to meet them.


    With a smile in her face, she said "You girls aren''t done yet. You have only fixed one-tenth of the organization."


    She then said further "Look at the floor, it has not been restored to his previous state. And look at the walls of the hallway, they still remain the way they are. Restore them back to the way that they were, and I will let you girls off. But if not, I wonder what Olivia and her deputy will do to you girls after they hear of what you girls did here."


    ''Ugh!'' Helena who felt excessively fatigued said inwardly.


    She then knelt in front of the woman and said with a sincere tone in her voice "We are really sorry, ma''am. Please forgive us. When we make money, we wille give it to you to have this ce fixed."


    "You will give me money to have this ce fixed? That''s good. However, when Ist checked, you girls don''t have a single dime on you. So, how are you going to pay me to have this ce restored back it to previous faultless state? Or you have abruptly brewed up a n in your mind to steal from others ande here to pay me with the money stolen or robbed from people?" The woman wielding the scepter asked with a serious tone in her voice.


    "No ma''am. I will never do such things like that again." Helena said.


    She then said further with an apologetic and remorseful gaze in her eyes "Ma''am, can you please pardon us? I beg you"


    Aii!


    The woman sighed.


    She then said "Alright. You have begged enough. You can stand back to your feet."


    When Helena heard that, she stood back to her feet with happiness written all over her face.


    She then looked at the woman and asked "Have you have forgiven us?"


    "Yes, I have forgiven you. And this is because I understand why you did what you did. Also, you are still young, and don''t really understand how to go about many things in our world. So, I will let you off this time. However, this must be thest time that you will ever do this. Or you might put yourself in deep trouble someday" The woman said while Helena nodded.


    The woman then looked away from Helena to thedy that brought Helena and her colleagues into the organization.


    "Paulina,e here"


    Thedy then quickly walked to where they stood at.


    When she appeared before them, the woman holding the scepter said while looking at Helena and her colleagues "Now, I want you all to apologize to thisdy."


    Helena nodded her head and apologized to thedy with a slight bow. Same with her friends who apologized to her with sincere tones in their voices.


    Thedy who was called Paulina then broke an amiable smile across her face.


    She then said "I heard when you were speaking to Danie, our chief guard that you wanted to see a long time friend of yours, which was why you came into this ce to steal a map that you will use to find your way to her ce which would be really far away, right?"


    Helena nodded.


    "That''s right, ma''am" She said with a smile.


    "Okay." Paulina said with a small nod of her head.


    She then spoke further by saying "Since you girls really want the map to her ce, I will give it to you."


    But seeing the surprised gazes in their eyes, Paulina said with a light chuckle "Are you girls actually thinking that I will give you that expensive map? Haha! Don''t even dare to imagine that I will give you such a thing. Even if a Summoneres and fiercely demands for it, he or she would only be able to get it over my dead body. Haha!."


    She then continued after she stopped grinning "Actually, the map is something that we have been working on for many years. It''s was onlyst month that wepleted it. However, itpletion costed us a lot. There were just so many obstacles on the way that our brave and zealous men had to use their rapier wits to surmount."


    When Paulina said this, Helena and the rest of the girls in her cult who stood around her had their eyes glow with awe.


    "Excuse me, ma''am. If I may ask, why did you build such a map?" Helena asked with bright inquisitive eyes.


    Paulina slightly grinned.


    "Well, the kind of map that we created is the very first map in our world to have all the kingdoms drawn into it. Our men knew what it would take them to this create this map, they still however went ahead to do it."


    Helena nodded her head with astonishment written over her face.


    She then proceeded to ask a question that surfaced in her mind "So, you mean that we can''t find this kind of map anywhere else in this world?"


    "I am overly confident that you can''t. Haha! It''s the only map that shows all the kingdoms in this world. There is none like it that would be found anywhere else" Paulina responded.


    "Oh. That''s cool." Helena said with a nod of her head.


    She then proceeded to ask another question that shed in her head "So, who do you really intend to sell the map to? And does anyone else know about the existence of a such a map?"


    Haha!


    Paulina chortled.


    She then answered by saying "Well, you shouldn''t be too concerned with who I want to sell the map to."


    She then continued by saying "Then to answer your second question, anyone who isn''t from this organization definitely won''t know about the existence of a such a map. We kept it really hidden. Also, the organization is supposed to be way bigger and grander than this, but because we don''t want all notorious eyes gazing at our establishment, we tried to be as low-key as possible. And it has greatly helped. Since we established our organization here, we haven''t been attacked by anyone or by groups or bands of powerful people. But this is only because people would think that something that would attract or interest only mortals can be found in here. Well, except you girls who came demanding for our map." She said and shook her head as she stared at Helena who only looked down at the ground, since she was ashamed to meet Paulina''s gaze with her clear and bright eyes.


    "Well, that''s by the way. Now, let me attend to your need." Paulina said.


    She then stretched out one of her dainty-looking arms at Helena.


    "Uhm... You stretched out your hands at me." Helena who was confused by Paulina''s action said.


    "Yea. Give me your map. The map that was given to you for your mission." Paulina said.


    "Oh. Alright." Helena said.


    She then brought out the map which was a small disc-shaped crystal from her artifact storage sack and gave it to Paulina who collected it with a smile in her face.


    Helena who had a bewildered expression in her face, asked "What do you intend to do with it?"


    "I will ask the map drawer to help you expand your mission map by adding many more ces to it. So, with your modified map, you should be able to go from here to the region where the kingdom that you friend resides in is located."
