CH 46SPACE, IN HELENA’S UNIVERSE.As Helena stepped into her universe with her physical body, she noticed the shackles holding her from advancing her cultivation disappear. [SO, THIS IS WHAT A NEW UNIVERSE LOOKS LIKE.]Alpha said in a fascinated tone.“I’ll take you on a tour later. First, I have to see if my plan will work.Helena said in an anxious tone as she swipes her hand, shifting space and teleporting to a barren planet in the universe. She sits on the ground in a meditation pose before saying.“Alpha, assign all my universal points to the universal QI stat,”Helena instructed.[ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THIS?]Alpha asked in a worried tone.“Yes… I am.”Helena said with a determined expression.[DING][ALL UNIVERSAL POINTS HAVE BEEN ASSIGNED TO UNIVERSAL QI STATS.]The system prompted.As soon as all the points were assigned, Helena's body expelled an enormous wave of universal QI, destroying all the planets in the solar system.*BOOM*[DING][CONGRATULATION YOU HAVE REACHED THE
INSIDE HELENA’S ROOMTHE NEXT DAY.As the morning sun rose and its light enveloped the moon, Grace transformed back to her human form. “Ahhhh-hhaaaaa… It’s morning already.”Grace said while yawning, as she stretched her body, feeling a bit sore. She opens her eyes and notices that she wasn’t in her room but in Princess Helena’s room. “Oh, no, not again.”Grace said in a panic as she stood up from the ground quickly and searched for a cloth to cover her body. She glanced towards Helena’s bed and was surprised when she found it empty.“Huh? Why is the princess not on her bed, staring at my body as she always does?” Grace said in her mind. But for some reason, she felt disappointed that Helena was not there to stare at her. “What… am I thinking?”Grace thought, shaking away her naughty thoughts about a seven-year-old princess.*KNOCK* *KNOCK*After hearing a knock, Grace turns her gaze quickly toward the doorway.—---------------------------------------------------------GIGGADON EM
INSIDE HELENA’S ROOM.“P–princess, how–how did you come out of that?”Grace and Nora asked simultaneously, pointing at the portal with shocked expressions.*SNAP**VROOM*“Huh, what are you talking about? Ha-haha”Helena questioned with a clueless expression. after snapping her fingers and making the portal close.“But - but it was just–”Nora stuttered. She was sure that the princess had jumped out of a black hole just a few moments ago, but now it is gone. “But, Nora, what are you doing in my room this early?”Helena asked. She knew why Grace was there but did not know why Nora was in her room this early in the morning.“Oh, yes… I almost forgot. Your Highness, I received a letter from a maid who is from the empress’s palace.” Nora said as she brought out a letter with the royal family seal, out of her pocket and handed it over to Princess Helena.“Are we just going to forget about how the princess jumped out of a black hole in front of our eyes?”Grace thought in her mind, after
IN THE EMPRESS PALACE.*KNOCK* *KNOCK*“Your Majesty, Princess Helena has arrived.”One of the empress's maids who escorted Helena into the empress palace announced after arriving at the empress's room.“Come in…”A voice said from inside the empress’s room.*CREAK* *DOOR OPENING*After the door opened, Helena walks into the Empress' room with Grace and Nora following behind her.“I am curious to see what the empress looks like.”Helena thought as she was walking into the empress room, she noticed one maid standing at each corner of the room, and at the center of the room was a table with a tea set ready.While pointing to the tea table, one of the maids said.“Princess, please you may have your seat…”Helena walks to the table and takes a seat with Nora and Grace standing behind her as they wait for the empress.*CREAKING*The sound of a door opening catches Helena’s attention. As she turns her gaze toward the direction of the sound, she noticed another doorway inside the room.And w
“Muhahahaha…”Empress Selene laughed hysterically after calming her anger. She could not believe that she let a child stir up her emotions that easily.“Ha… you are a clever little thing, aren’t you?” Empress Selene said as she chuckled with an astonished expression.“Well… your speculations were correct. I do want to see this empire fall, but I think so do you. As we both share the same pain of losing our family to the empire.”Empress Selene said.“... What is she talking about?”Helena thought in her mind, confused by Empress Selene's words. She could not think of anything they shared in common.“Oh, no. From your expression, it seems that you don’t know.”Empress Selene said in vague words as she stared at Helena with a pitiful gaze.“... Just say what you have to say.”Helena said in an annoyed tone as she glares at Empress Selene.“... As a mother, it pains me to say this, but… your mother is in a coma, after being pushed down off her balcony by her maid. And the people who ord
TWO DAYS LATERVALKARIE PALACE HELENA’S ROOM“My liege, I have prepared your disguise… but are you sure I do not need to prepare a teleportation scroll?”Grace asked Helena in a concerned tone. She could not understand why her liege would not use the teleportation scroll that would allow them to get to the secret base in seconds, but instead wanted to run to the secret base.*CREAK* *DOOR OPENING*“The teleportation scroll would be faster, but I need to check something out.”Helena said as she walks out of her bathroom. After coming out, she sees the disguise Grace prepared. It was a brown-colored cloak with rough patches, and she noticed a magic spell of concealment on it.“Hmm… the disguise is great, but it still needs a little touch.”Helena said as she stretches her hand forward before saying.‘DEN’A portal leading to her universe opens, and she walks into it.“It’s that black hole again. I wonder where it leads to.”Grace said as she walks closer to the portal, observing it. Aft
GIGGADON EMPIRE.OUTER AREA OF THE MISTY MOUNTAINS.*POKE* *POKE*“Hmm… she passed out from the shock,”Helena said, crouched beside Anna, as she poked Anna’s cheeks with a twig. But, after getting no reaction from the unconscious Anna, she throws the twig away and stands.“My liege, I found this on the remains of the boy.”Grace said as she walks towards Helena with a wooden object in hand. After getting close, Grace hands over the object to Helena.“I see, so they were trainee knights. No wonder they were weak. But this has become troublesome.”Helena said. After recognizing the object. It was a wooden badge with the emblem of a wooden sword, which signifies that the holder wasn’t fully a knight yet.“My liege, would you like me to erase their trace?”Grace asked as she placed her hand on her dagger, ready to kill Anna.“No… if two trainee knights go missing here, it would attract the Royal knights’ attention to the Misty Mountains. Which will become a headache.”Helena explained. W
INSIDE MISTY PEAK.THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MAGIC FORMATION.*VROOM*“Huh? So, the magic formation was also a teleportation circle?”Helena thought in her mind after being teleported into a large hall. She glances around the hall and notices something familiar about the architecture. “Unlike the medieval architecture of the Giggadon Empire, this hall’s architecture looks really similar to ancient Rome. How is it possible for two different civilization architectures to exist on the same land?”Helena wondered in her mind. But could not find an answer. As a result, she decided to ask Grace.“Grace, why does this hall's architecture look different from the Giggadon Empire?”Helena asked in a curious tone.“I also don’t know much, My liege. But, from what the former dark knight guild master told me. Before the Murla Kingdom, which later became the Giggadon Empire, was built, there used to be a civilization that occupied this land, thousands of years ago. And they are the ones who built this
