Chapter-14

"You should know when to run in the face of a powerful enemy, if you can't run then use your head to deal with your enemy," Helen said in her teaching tone.
Ron looked at his head in confusion as he asked her, "how can I use my head to defeat the enemy?"
"..sign…in simple terms first observe your enemy find its weaknesses and strength and then make a perfect plan after that execute the plan to trap your enemy" Helen explained this as she released a tired sign.
And continue "...Just don't recklessly charge into the enemy without knowing anything about it, ok?"
"Ohh, you should have said that from the start big sis hehehe~, now I understand," Ron said while rubbing his head with his hand.
"As long as you understand, it's all good," Helen said with a small smile on her face.
Ron suddenly remembers something as he says "big sis, do you know anything about this mana tool?"
Helen looks at the blades with a serious expression.
*gulp*
Ron also starts to get restless because of the suspense.
After a while, she open her mouth and break the silence as she said "No idea Ron"
"Really!?? You don't know anything then what's with the suspense" Ron exclaimed as he stood up from the couch.
"Ron, I have no idea about it, since the mana tool itself doesn't have any signs of mana fluctuation in it," she said while putting her hand on her chin in deep thought and as she continue "It looks like normal old blades made out of a stone"
"But I swear this mana tool I awakened yesterday, believe me, I am not telling the lie!!" Ron said this loudly with tears in his eyes since he can't control his emotions seeing that his big sis also does not believe like everyone else in the church.
Even though he will accept anyone who does not believe him, seeing his big sis who he considered his dear family not believing himself is a blow to him.
Helen, seeing his expression of someone who is on the verge of crying, brought both hands towards his face.
*Pinch*
"Auauauau" His cheeks were pulled by her both hands while he is making weird voices.
"Don't think about I am not believing you, it's just I am only saying that it's weird, got it?" She said this while pulling his cheeks making his face look funny.
*nod* *nod* *nod*
"Good," She said as she released his cheeks.
"Ouuu ouu ouch" He mourned in pain as he rubbed his cheeks with both hands.
"As for the parameter you are seeing might be the key to activating the mana tool," She said while looking at the blades again.
"But…I tried almost everything in my home but it was all worthless," Ron told her with a tired expression.
After all, even after leaving the forest, he took several breaks during the rest of the journey for testing his mana tool like using blades while dancing, singing, praying or doing any other weird poses but in the end, it was all worthless.
"Maybe some kind of fuel" She murmured as she closed her eyes, after opening them again as she shrugged her shoulders saying "well, you know with time, but for now it's useless to think about without any clues".
Ron made a sad expression and said "But…you know I want to use them right now"
Seeing his Pitiful expression, she couldn't help but chuckle as she patted his head and said in a soft tone "Ron listen you waited for years for this, just a few more days Or weeks won't hurt right?"
"Yeah, maybe big sis you are right" As he said this with conviction "I can't give up now when I have the key of my dreams in my hand"
"That's my little brother," She said with a smile on her face while rubbing his head with her hand.
"Now go quickly take a bath and then let's eat something together" She stopped rubbing his head.
"Okay," Ron said as he stood up while he fixed his hair which was ruined by her big sister.
He grabs his clothes from the closet and exits the front door and runs towards the lake.
Seeing Ron leaving, she waved her hand as the door automatically closed.
*thud*
Making a loud noise, she stands up moving towards the dining table while the blades float in the air.
*snap*
With the snap of her fingers, the things laying on the dining table vanished into thin air.
She then placed the blades on the middle of the dining table.
While she grabbed her dirty necklace with both of her hands which were around her necklace as she whispered something in a very low voice.
Suddenly white light started to illuminate from the necklace, as the chains started to get visible from the body which seemed to be binding her whole body.
All the chains which were binding her started to break one by one while dirt on her necklace started to fade, becoming a very beautiful necklace with a purple gem in it.
Helen's body also started to glow in the light, as her hair started to change from dirty grey to milky white colour.
Her face, which was ugly and filled with pimples, started to get clean.
Her skin also started to get clean.
After a while a whole new person comes out, the person is Helen but her appearance completely changes.
Her appearance is so beautiful now, completely different from her previous state.
Her hair now has a beautiful white colour which is longer than her previous dirty grey hair reaching down to her waist.
Her skin now is fair like snow, maintaining her smoothness.
Her snow-white legs are long and thick.
Her eyes were still purple but they now looked more brightly like 2 gems.
Her lips were now rosy red, and her ears were now long like an elf.
Her breast is grown from F-Cup to I-Cup.
Her height also grew from 175 cm to 190 cm.
Her whole body illuminates golden light making her look like some sort of deity coming from heaven.
She is now looking absolutely beautiful like a living piece of art which can't be touched but only appreciated by distance.
If any living creature sees her in her current appearance, they might even forget to breathe.
She then looks at the blades, while pointing her 2 fingers to the blades as though 'I hope this works.
From the moment she first saw the blades, she didn't know why she had one uneasy feeling about the blades but she couldn't confirm anything due to Ron present.
After that, her necklace started to glow purple showing 10 light stars as she murmured "Soul Search"
She placed her two fingers on the blades while she closed her eyes and started to concentrate.
Suddenly her eyes wide opened as she was pushed by some kind of force produced by the blade.
*Crush*
She crushes into the wooden wall and makes spider web shape cracks in the wall.
She slowly gets up with horror in her eyes while sweating profusely due to fear.
'WHAT WAS THAT THING?!??' Helen scream inwardly while looking at the blades with wide-open eyes.
Soon she tries to take calm down while continuously taking deep breaths.
After calming down, she looks around to see the devastating condition of the house.
"What a mess" She mummer as she waved her hand and whispered "Restore" While her necklace started to glow again.
All the things that are destroyed started to restore in seconds.
these look like nothing happened.
"Perfect-argggg!!!" As she was about spoke chains suddenly bound her again at very high speed.
She couldn't do anything but just grit her teeth and endure the pain while she lay on the ground.
After a while chains covered her whole body but soon chains started to disappear.
But Helen is no longer in her beautiful appearance bin her Previously ugly appearance.
"Only 5 minutes after trying so hard for 6 years and here I have thought I might be e to break it" She murmured while she started to cry in silently.
After she calmed down, she stood up slowly and said in a low tone "Ron should be back at any time, I should go prepare something otherwise he will suspect something"
She paused for a while giving blades last look and continuing "I can't tell Ron yet until I confirmed what is this"
After remembering the scene she saw, shivers creep down her spine while fear covered her body.
"And I have to do something else for unlocking my full strength otherwise I can't able to protect anything I want to….protect," She said this last sentence remembering Ron and Helen's scene where they played and laughed together.
She then moves towards the kitchen without touching the blades more if she is now afraid to even touch the blades.
'One more year until we leave this house and move into a dangerous world and I will do anything to protect him from any danger in the outside world, no matter what they thought inwardly while griping her fist tightly and determination shining in her purple eyes.
