Chapter 114: Library of a million spell books

- Great Sisterhood Training Camp -

"Don't think because you have defeated Jennifer that you won't increase your spellcasting and combat training intensity." Helena's combat and fitness private instructor, Deylina, said.

"I know that too, ma'am. That's why I have been attempting to learn and master Sky-level Spellcaster spells." Helena answered with a smile.

"Hmm. And how far have you gone with it?" Deylina asked.

"Well, it's only the Nine Golden Invincible Bells spells which I used to block Jennifer's evil magical attack that I have really mastered, since I can instantly deploy it with a single thought from me. However, I have been trying to master other spells and complete some unfinished high-level spells that I was introduced to by instructor Sephia. So very soon, I should master a few of them too" Helena replied.

"Good. And keep in mind that you will participate in the spellcasting competition coming up in two weeks time. So, you have to fully dedicate yourself to your training and be totally diligent at it."

"And as you may already know, in the competition that is coming up very soon, many seniors of yours, those who are in the Sky-level spellcasting stage will also be participating in the competition, since it is meant for them. And since you will partaking in that intense competition, you should try to master those third-level spellweaving magical spells on time, or you will be swept away by their powerful unceasing magical attacks and lose the awards and the beautiful prizes that you can keep yourself from winning the competition." Deylina said.

"Yes ma'am. I know that too. I was told by instructor Amber that many of my seniors will also be partaking in the magical competition. However, I am also seriously preparing myself for it, since I also want those magical artifacts for myself." Helena answered.

"Good!" Deylina said.

She then said further "Well, as an advice which you will want to adhere to, those shameless seniors of yours who already know that you are the chosen one will try to focus on you more to sweep you off the platform and then become famous as the male or female that swept you, the great and all-powerful Chosen One, away from the platform. So, you will want to sensorily avoid their joint or sudden, sneak attacks by mastering a Magical Awareness spell which will instantly produce a mildly or strongly tingling or burning sensation on any part of your body to alarm you off faraway or extremely close magical attacks."

"Okay. I will do so, ma'am. Thanks for telling me that" Helena said appreciably.

"Don't mention, Helena. And also, you should understand that the spell will benefit you in the long run since you will be instantly alerted of magical attacks that will be sneakingly fired at you from any direction. However, the only downside of the spell is that since it's a spell that needs Aetha energy to continue operating, it will deplete the Aetha energy flowing in your veins. But I have a feeling that you shouldn't really have problem with that since you are the Chosen One, as sometimes in the future, you will possibly activate an ability to endlessly gather Aetha energy from the world in tremendous amounts."

"Well, I can only hope to awaken that ability early." Helena answered.

She then said further "When today's strength training is over, I will try to get that particular spell that you spoke about."

"Alright." Deylina said.

She then spoke further by saying "Alright. Continue your press-ups."

Helena nodded and then went into the press-up position to continue her press-ups.

***

Few hours later when she was done with her body's strength training, she left the training field that she was on with the others to their various rooms to rest or do other things.

As everyone started leaving the training field to their rooms, Lydia came over to Helena's side and asked with a smile in her face "Hello Hel, how are you?"

"Hey Lydia, I just feel tired because I did many press-ups. My instructor is just so hard on me. Anyways, I will recover my energy when I get to my room and relax." Helena said.

She then questioned "What about you, Lydia? Hope you are good?"

"Yea. I am doing fine." Lydia answered.

She then asked "Going to your room now, right?"

"No, I am going to see instructor Amber to get a book of spell. I need a particular spell from it." Helena answered.

"Alright." Lydia said and nodded at the same time.

She then asked with a curious gaze in her eyes "Would you partake in that magical competition that will come up in a few weeks time?"

"Sure. I plan to." Helena replied with a smile in her face.

"Oh really? That is cool, Helena. I also want to participate in that competition too. I am trying to do everything to develop my abilities." Lydia said.

Then before Helena could say anything, Lydia proceeded to ask a question that surfaced in her mind "Helena, what do you say we team up against our seniors? I think we would be a powerful, invincible force if we face off against our seniors together."

"Yea. That's right. Just like how we were invincible when we fought those magical beasts in that Valley of Skulls. Alright Lydia, let's team up together and battle our seniors." Helena said with a sharp gaze in her eyes.

Then they both went to instructor Amber's office to see her.

Knock!

Once a knock was made on her door, Amber's voice rang out from within.

"Come in" She said.

Then the door opened for Helena and Lydia to come in.

"Helena, what's up? Do you have anything to report to me?" Amber questioned as she was surprised to see them.

"Not at all, instructor Amber. I only came here to request for your permission to use the library. I want to master a Magical Awareness spell since I will be going up against many of my seniors that will be partaking in that magical competition coming up in two weeks time." Helena answered.

"Hmm. Alright." Amber said.

She then turned her head to look at Lydia and asked "What about you, what are you here for?"

"I came in with Helena, instructor Amber" Lydia answered.

"Okay." Amber said with a slight nod of her head.

She then said "Alright. Come with me, the both of you."

Amber then stood to her feet and walked towards the door of her office to leave it. And as she did so, she was followed behind by both Helena and Lydia who had smiles in their faces.

This was their first time going to the library, a massive place where thousands of shelves with millions of large books on spellcasting could be found on them.

When they got to the library, they came across a middle-aged, partially bald man who wore a robe and emitted a shocking, oppressive aura of power and might from his body.

When Amber appeared before this man, she took a full bow. Then when she straightened herself back, she greeted respectfully "Good day, elder Jones."

Elder Jones only nodded indifferently.

His gaze at the moment was on both Helena and Lydia. He then turned his head to look at Amber and asked "What do they want?"

"They want to use the library to acquire some spells from some spell books in the library." Amber answered.

"Hmm. And what are their contribution points?" Elder Jones asked.

"Well, it's not long that they both joined the Great Sisterhood training camp. So, they haven't really acquired contribution points yet. But with time, they would do so and be able to exchange them for other things at the training camp." Amber responded.

"Okay. But they can't use the library until they have acquired contribution points. I am sorry, Amber. Tell them to return and come back another time when they have gotten contribution points." Elder Jones said, causing Amber, Helena and Lydia to feel shocked.

"Uhm... Elder Jones, she is Helena, the chosen one." Amber said, trying to change Elder Jones mind by telling him Helena's identity.

"And so?" Elder Jones asked with a furrowed brow.

He was actually slightly angered by what Amber said, saying that Helena was the Chosen One.

Then before Amber could talk, Elder Jones said further "Even though she is the Chosen One, she can't have possibly everything in here without working for them. Her being the Chosen One does not mean that she should be entitled to have everything in here without really working hard for them."

Then speaking further, he asked with his brows still furrowed and with that slight expression of anger still written all over his face "Why would she get things without a sweat when others are out there in the world risking their lives for them? I will rather give access to the library and to other restricted places in the camp to people who work hard to get contribution points than to someone who thinks that she can just get everything like she is really entitled to have them."
