A Magical Tale: The Peerless Summoner

Chapter 69: Egg



Chapter 69: Egg

Not long when Helena crossed to the zone of the magical beasts, she could see bones that would definitely belong to either wild beasts or magical beasts on the ground. They piled up in heaps.

"Would the magical beasts in here be in large numbers?" She asked herself.

She couldn't be sure if the magical beasts in here moved together in large numbers. Because if they did, it would surely be a great problem for her.

Helena had a feeling that attacking five magical beasts would be too taxing for her. Then what if they were ten or twenty or worst, fifty?

However, she didn't let this frighten her.

She was determined to give it her best in fighting the magical beasts, no matter how much they would appear before her.

And if she couldn't overwhelm them? She would instantly take to her heels and leave them far behind by using a speed-type spell on herself with the intention of increasing her movement speed so she could quickly leave the presence of the magical beasts if they appeared to be dominating her in battle.

When she thought all these in her head, she braced up herself.

But as soon as her train of thought stopped, a roar that gave the feeling that it was enraged suddenly rang from far within one of the many interconnected routes. And surprisingly, as the roar continued to echo throughout many of the routes that led to one cave or the other, the walls of the numerous tunneling routes cracked in numerous places before small pieces of them broke away.

When the roar stopped, Helena quickly looked around her with great vigilance. She was very wary of magical beasts.

While looking around, she suddenly felt something thinly stream down from her nose.

Her attention was then abruptly pulled back to herself as she raised a finger to wipe what had streamed out of her nose.

After doing so, she saw that it was blood on her fingers.

"Hell! What caused this?" She asked in a shocked and puzzled tone.

Then she recalled that angered beastly roar that surfaced in the route that she was in a few moments ago.

"Could it be that roar?" Helena asked herself.

Then her eyes shone in the next moment when she concluded in her mind that it was the roar of that beast that caused this to her.

She then uttered in a loud tone as her mind whirled in shock "Oh heavens!"

After calming herself a moment later, she said "I wonder which route that magical beast would be in. Best to avoid it"

Then she continued on her way into a cave through the route that she took.

On arriving at the cave, she saw dozens of eggs that were the sizes of watermelons. But she wouldn't know this as the eggs were buried halfway into the floor of the cave.

The shells of the eggs glittered like diamond in the intense white light that emanated from the brilliantly burning white flame that wrapped around the bone which she held.

When Helena saw the eggs, she couldn't take her eyes of them.

"So beautiful" She said.

She then approached them.

When Helena appeared in front of them, she squatted and then stretched out one of her hands to rub their glossy, beautifully glittering smooth surfaces. But just as she was about to, a terrifying screech suddenly sounded from afar.

Helena heard the frightening screech and fear suddenly appeared in her heart.

However, she wasn't going to give up on these eggs. At least, she must take one with her which she was going to train as a pet.

Very quickly, she placed her hand on the ground and uttered a earth softening-type spell.

Instantly, a strange power flowed from within her to her hand and to the ground which that hand was in contact with.

Immediately this power connected with the earth, the floor of the cave instantly softened. It now appeared as if the eggs were in soft, muddy soils.

Very quickly, Helena who had abruptly scanned the eggs for the largest quickly pulled it out from the softened floor of the cave. And once she did so, with the mother bird arriving some feet away from her, she quickly uttered the powerful speed-type spell that was in her head.

"Travera!"

Immediately she uttered that, a dark blue aura that caused the air to surprisingly tremble suddenly erupted from her entire figure.

Then when she took a step, she quickly crossed a distance of fifty feet in a second, leaving behind many dozens of blue-colored afterimages of herself that rapidly faded away, thereby leaving no trace of where she would be for the mother bird.

The mother bird who thought it could go after Helena but lost track of her in the next instant screeched in rage and fury.

Then it made up it mind to search all the caves for Helena before she could leave the valley.

Helena who was using a Sky-level speed-type spell on herself quickly found a place to hide in.

At the moment, she was drained of all her Aetha energy. So, it would definitely be unwise to move around in the den of frenzied magical beasts without even a wisp of Aetha energy in her body.

Therefore, she chose an empty cave which was filled with bones of many other beasts to quickly recover her fully expended Aetha energy.

She however knew that she had to recover most of her Aetha energy on time, or when the true inhabitants of this cave came back, it would be a problem for her.

With her eyes closed and deeply inhaling for a pretty long time, she was able to increase the Aetha energy in her body by a significant amount.

After she felt fully charged, she picked up the egg and uttered a spell at it.

Instantly, a power flowed from within her and through her arms to the egg. And immediately the egg was imbued with this power, it began to glow brilliantly that the bright and resplendent luminescence coming from it overshadowed that coming from the bright white flame that burned without heat around the bone that hovered in the air. Also, this colored brilliance lasted for a long time that it took approximately ten minutes for the glaring prismatic glow coming from the egg to recede.

Then when it dimmed, what could be seen in Helena's hands was a small version of the mother bird which was chasing after Helena.

She had actually used a growth acceleration-type spell to make the egg rapidly develop and hatch.
