parent,xxxxxx and the parent doesn't exist.

Is there possible like ParentExist or NumParent?

1- Make the root do the helper check, and let the child set a root variable for that.
2- the child helper should reset that the root variable before it gets destroyed or root does it.
3- Then, the granchild (root > child > granchild) should check that root variable.

For example, lets imagine that your char "RYU" (which is the root) has a helper called CIRCLE (child) who spawns a SQUARE helper (granchild).
Ryu spawns CIRCLE. Circle sets the root var (40) =1. SQUARE checks if the root var is 1. Whenever CIRCLE is destroyed, it sets the root var(40)=0 (or RYU checks it there is any CIRCLE. If not, resets the variable)

So, you will need to add a triggerall = root, var(40) on the granchild.

root,numhelper(x) =1 or >0 as a triggerall

You can check for any helper regardless of who spawned it in the helpers as the helpers are always owned by the root.

Are the helpers owned by the root too? Like projectiles does?

All projectiles created by helpers immediately become owned by the root.
There is no mention about it at the manual.

I know it's not there but if you check the debug the helper is the root's first and parent's second. My ruby wouldn't exist if this weren't the case lol

Now that you are talking, I guess it makes sense (but its not totally right on a programming view) since the parent is owned by the root anyway.
