A Magical Tale: The Peerless Summoner

Helena's eyes widened in shock upon noticing Trikki's action.

However, she immediately uttered a spell to block Trikki's fist that was raging towards her chest.

"Cyaro" She uttered.

Instantly, a strong gale of wind suddenly manifested before her and blasted into Trikki, knocking her off her feet and shoving her backwards for many feet I to the distance.

She landed to the ground with a heavy thud.

But she instantly got back up to her feet by doing a kip-up. And immediately she sprung to her feet, she jumped towards Helena again.

But this time, her fist began to actually glow.

Then immediately she punched out, a blast of energy shot out from her fist and raged towards Helena.

Helena who had narrowed her eyes and studied Trikki's every action immediately pointed her hands at the blast and quickly uttered "Silvario"

Then two massive palms that were silver in color and radiated a type of pressure that caused the ground to actually crack discharged from her palms and shot towards the blast.

Bang!

A loud bang sound rang out and was immediately accompanied by a powerful gust of wind when the two attacks collided into each other.

When the intense situation calmed, both Helena and Trikki looked at each other.

They had actually paused in their attacks.

But Trikki at the moment was surprised at how Helena could block her attacks.

"Where did she learn those magical spells from?" She asked inwardly. Then she questioned further "She could block my attacks and even knock me backwards. Up till now, I haven't been able to successfully hit her. How is she doing it?"

As she queried herself in her mind, she then looked at the room that Helena came from once again and suddenly had a thought surface in her mind.

'Hmm. I understand now. She must be someone that's excellently versed in magic spell weaving. But I don't see anything special about her. Why would she be given the room when Jennifer is around?"

Unexpectedly, Trikki turned around and left the place to head back to Jennifer's room.

As soon as she left, the females watching the battle became unhappy.

The battle they were excited to watch didn't go on for long.

Then they began to leave to their various rooms with astonishment appearing in their hearts.

This new girl could actually parry and block Trikki's attack?

Where is she from?

And she is so bold.

She was the first girl to go against Trikki since she had been brought to this place in their batch to learn magic.

When Helena saw that everyone were beginning to leave to their various rooms, she too turned around and went back into her room to relax.

But she was excited over her victory.

However, she knew that this was just the start of her problems, as she felt that it was someone that sent Trikki to come try her out. And now that she had chased back this person, the person that sent her would come for her very soon.

"Aii!" She sighed.

Anyways, she wanted battle to improve herself.

And since they wanted to battle her, they should come.

"Trikki, i heard from others that you weren't able to conquer that new, little bitch that just arrived. What really happened? You are too strong to cause her to burst into mist of blood if you wanted it. Were you holding back or what?" Jennifer asked.

Trikki exhaled.

"I wasn't holding back. If I could get to her, I would have torn her apart. But I couldn't. She is really fast with weaving magical attacks and she knows large numbers of different magical spells." She said.

Then she continued "Besides, when she blocked my last powered attack, I came to an understanding that this girl wasn't ordinary. If she was ordinary, she wouldn't be given that room we all see as heavenly. There must be something totally unique about her that made them to give her that room"

Haha!

Jennifer laughed.

"She's totally unique? That thing? Don't make me hit you." She said and grinned.

Then she continued "If she's unique, what am I? I am from three powerful races while she is an ordinary human who knows magical spells"

"Hmm. Well, Jennifer I really don't know what to say. All I know is that if I had continued to fight her, I wouldn't beat her. But what I don't understand is why she was given that room and not you." Trikki said.

"Well, I don't care about any reason they may have for putting her in there. All I know is that I would come for her soon. That room would surely be mine." Jennifer said.

Then she looked at Trikki and said "You disappointed me"

Trikki sighed.

There was nothing she could say more than what she had said.

Next day...

On the training field.

"Everyone listen, we now have a new member amongst us. She was brought here from the Tale world to come study magic under us." A spell instructor who stood on a platform that was before a large assembly of people that consisted of mostly females said.

She was the senior spell instructor since her uniform was different from that of the other instructors that stood behind her with hands at their backs.

After the spell instructor said that, she looked into the huge gathering of people before her and said "Helena, come out from within the crowd"

Helena nodded her head when she heard that at where she stood. Then she came out from the crowd to stand before them.

"This is Helena. I believe most of you have seen her yesterday after her battle with Trikki the strong. While the rest of you must have heard about her." The female instructor said.

Then she continued "Now that she's amongst us, you must treat her like your sister. Anything she would need help with, you should put her through. Am I clear enough?"

"Yes ma'am!" Everyone roared together.

"Good" The spell instructor said.

"Now, carry on with what you are here for" The spell instructor said while everybody nodded.

Then she stepped down from the platform and walked towards Helena who still stood before the platform as she awaited her own instruction since she didn't know what next to do.

"Helena, I believe you know a little about magic, right?" She asked.

"Yes ma'am. I do" Helena said.

"Good" The spell instructor said.

Then she asked further "Do have any hand-to-hand fighting experience?"

"No ma'am" Helena replied.

"Alright. Then we would start with that first since you have little knowledge on magic" The spell instructor said while Helena nodded her head.

"Come with me" She uttered as she led Helena to a side of the field where she would begin to receive her combat training.

At this part of the field, Helena met a huge black woman who had a scar that ran across her face making her look ferocious. Also, she had a fierce expression on her face. And with two horns at both sides of her head and eyes that glowed in intense blue, Helena became frightened by this towering horned woman.

Was this the person that was gonna train her?

She felt so.

"Good day, senior" Helena respectfully greeted.

"I don't want your greeting. Only until you can bring me down can you greet me. But now, hold your fucking greeting to yourself." The woman harshly said.

"Alright senior" Helena politely said.

"Now, for the introduction. This is Deylina. A warrior from the Rhinoidae race known for their amazing strength, durability and combat prowess. She would be your teacher. Do everything she tells you to do or you would be wickedly struck down by her." The female instructor who was behind Helena said.

"Understood ma'am." Helena said and nodded.

"Alright." The spell instructor said.

Then she looked at Deylina and said "Start her training"

And as soon as she said so, she left. While Deylina looked at Helena with a fierce smile in her face that gave Helena the chills.

"Give me fifty squats" Deylina said.

Helena's eyes widened in shock.

'What?!' She questioned loudly in her mind.

But in the next instant, she remembered what the senior spell instructor said that Deylina would do to her if she didn't do whatever she demanded for.

Immediately, she bent her knees and lowered herself to a level where her thighs were parallel with the ground. Then she raised herself back to a standing position and counted "one".

However, before she could continue with the squats that she was asked to do, Deylina stopped her.

Then with a fierce gaze in her eyes that connected with that of Helena and invoked fear in her, she shouted "Stop"

Helena quickly stopped what she was doing.

"Am I doing something wrong?" Helena asked fearfully.

"Yes. There is something wrong with the way you are counting. That counting belongs to you puny humans." Deylina said.

"Oh!" Helena exclaimed.

Then she asked "How do I count?"

"Don't bother, I would count for you" Deylina said.

Helena nodded.

Then she began to lower herself into a squat and raise herself back to her standing position. After doing it about six times, Deylina said "One"
