After they have walked quite far away from the organization, Helena then spoke to her friends who weren't aware that she was being totally vigilant of their imdiate vicinity.
"Girls, when we were in that map-drawing organization, I could suddenly perceive an evil intention towards . The insidious intention towards probably leaked out from a person sowhere in that organization which the person then tried to quickly conceal. However, I could still vaguely sense it lingering presence, even after the person that accidentally leaked out the hideous intention from his or her heart tried to cancel it off from being detected by any other person. So with that experience, I have a feeling that so sort of people might already be assigned in that organization to trail us to wherever we are going to. As I speak, they might be anywhere around us now, ready to instantly strike us to death."
"Therefore, I want us all to be really vigilant. Watch where you step and put your ears out to listen to any sound that might be approaching any of us from far. And if you do hear anything, quickly alert the rest of us of the direction that the unusual, sudden sound is coming from." Helena said, causing the girls to be dazzled by all that she just ntioned.
However, they knew that since she felt such, she could be probably right. Besides, they had comprehended that they couldn't really understand how the innurous power of the Chosen One worked. So who were they to refute or disbelieve what she, Helena said?
Then very quickly after Helena made that statent, they all got themselves ready for any sudden sneak attack by putting their ears out to listen for any form of sound that might be quickly approaching them from afar.
And as they walked into the distance in the East direction, they warily watched the ground in front of them so as to not step into a trap, or into an unseen pit and then fall into it, in which Spatial Transfer-type magical spells could be casted at the bottom and would rapidly teleport them back to the map-drawing organization if they made contact with it, putting them at the rcies of their new formidable enemies.
"Girls, I am really sorry I got us into this situation. And since I am the one that brought us into this, I will also be the one to bring us out of it. I promise" Helena said while the girls sighed.
"Helena, when would you stop apologizing to us? It's kinda getting too much" Lucretia said in a displeased tone.
"Well, I just have to, because my recent actions have been nothing but foolish. Now, I got ourselves enemies after you guys who I don't know how strong they are" Helena answered with unveiled unhappiness in her tone.
"Well, your actions lately have been really foolish, you however got what you wanted. You have a map to your friend's place, and money to get ourselves things along the way, because judging from your intense delighted expression when you were given that pouch, I can say that the coins are much in number. So, your actions which were dumb have also yielded good fruits. Haha." Lydia said with a smile in her face and then grinned lightheartedly.
She then continued before Helena could speak "Besides, we are powerful on our own to be able to take on the enemies that might be trailing us at the mont. And with you who is the Chosen One, one ntioned to possess insane level of unfathomable, myriad magical and preternatural powers, we should be able to take on our formidable enemies, right? And by the way, isn't that what our deadly group, Heavenly Fiend Termination Cult is for? To slay bad guys and evil entities?"
Helena smiled with a nod of her head.
"Yea, that's what our group is for. To kill every bad guy that we would co across." She answered while Lydia broke a smile across her face that now had a serious expression written all over it.
Lucretia then unexpectedly asked "Co to think of it, do you think or feel that Daniella would also be a bad person?"
"Nope. She isn't a bad person." Helena outrightly answered.
She then continued while still warily looking about in her surrounding and perceiving with her heart for any ripple or pulse of arcane power that might suddenly surface "I could feel that when I stood directly in front of her. If she was truly a bad person and then tried to hide so dark intentions for which might suddenly spring up in her heart, I would still be able to perceive it. I am highly confident of that"
"But despite my closeness to her, all I felt from her was that she didn't want and you guys to get into trouble, or use the spells that we learnt from the training camp to satisfy our needs and wants out here in the world. So, she isn't a bad person."
"But I am really worried about her. I feel that those guys might kill her when they don't need her again. She won't even be able to escape. They would slay her in an instant."
Huuu!
The girls around Helena inhaled.
Lydia then asked with a bright glow of curiosity in her eyes "But what exactly did you say that made that sinister intent which you felt to suddenly manifest out of nowhere? Did you make so crazy derogatory remarks about the organization to Daniella and then caused the people within, who were probably listening to what you were saying by so ans to beco excessively angered and then mobilize themselves to co out to hunt us and kill us?"
"Haha!... And why would I do that? But I believe that what I said to Daniella was right. That there is sothing absolutely fishy going on in that dirty secretive organization. And since that devilish intent appeared, that ans my speculation about the organization being a demonic establishnt is correct. There could be dozens of evil people in that organization, probably in an underground room or hall that were listening to what I was saying to Daniella through so strange magical ans. I am certain of that." Helena replied.
"Hmm. Okay." Lucretia said and then kept quiet. Sa with the others who kept mute and then tried to increase their level of alertness to their imdiate and far surrounding.
After walking for more than two hours more in the East direction, they finally ca before a huge lagoon. They could however see many small boats and large boats there to transport them over the large water body to the faraway land at the other side.
"I guess we have to go by boat then. It's simply great that you asked for money, or we would be terribly stranded here with utter confusion in our hearts on simply what to do next. Haha!" Lydia said and grinned. Sa with the other girls as they chuckled.
