'W-what?' Bayo stuttered mentally, eyes wide open as he groaned.
Not that it was surprising but he hadn't expected the bite to take as much as 50 points of energy from him. His energy had dropped now from 745 to 695.
And as it did, the Law of Gluttony rushed in to fill the spot, fueling the Principle of Affection to absorb energy. But unlike before, the energy trickled in units of 5, 7, 3...
But it was enough.
Little drops of water make a mighty ocean after all.
Smiling inwardly, he infused energy into the Tailed heat conducting metal ball of spikes, drilling in 300energy points.
It was half of his energy but he couldn't afford to hold back. Not when there were two Vampires watching him.
Quickly, he mandated his business zone of his tail to heat up, bringing it in a swing for a home run.
THWACK!
The tail slammed heavily and quickly into the Wolf's side as the smelting of roasted fur steamed into the dusk airs. Fueled by the momentum of the slam, the Wolf growled, staggering away and blindly on a motion that was not its own, for ten meters.
Now, that was something.
"W-what?" The coarse voice of the Wolf sounded like the grinding of two stones together. It blinked, looking uncertainly at the Latent Stealth Dog ahead of it, which was engaging in a sort of tap tap dance with its paws.
It was mocking it.
"Tske... You!" The wolf growled, limping forward as Agbara blazed out from his eyes, making them a kind of energy flare sort of.
Bayo blinked.
He wasn't expecting this type of reaction from them all. Even the male vampire that had wanted to move for him earlier on but was stopped by a signal from the female just stared at him.
'Behold the power of My Super Star Dance Stun!' He gloated, as he prepped his limbs.
They all were stunned, and this was his chance to make the hit. His frame transversed the 10 meters gap, racing with reckless abandon with open fangs.
This was going to be the home run...

Hi, welcome to this breathtaking ride of fantasy. What if heaven was not what was believed so?
This is an answer to that question, a challenge of writing I took, delving unto the Mythological waters of ancient Yoruba Mythology with Gods as huge as mountains and powers as terrifying as what not.
This is a story of a human who lost his life and goes to heaven but alas, the heaven before him is different.
He only wants to live a normal life but unfortunately, due to the circumstances around his heaven arrival, things are taking an unexpected turn.
So, again, I ask, What if heaven was not what it was believed as?

-SPOILERS- (Skip to Chapter 5 if new) -SPOILERS- (Skip to Chapter 5 if new) -SPOILERS- (Skip to Chapter 5 if new) -THIS chapter will be updated as author seems fit -If you have suggestions of specie you will like to see in the novel, comment here. *** Do note that all creatures listed here are mostly spirit beings and as such require energy to keep about. (Humans are not spirits so they aren't counted in this novel) ——— Maximum energy levels is the highest energy that is accessible to each specie which will dictate the strength growth of that specie unless with aid of external factors. Only by studying the Aspectual Laws or the Laws Of Sin May a specie be able to ignore its Maximum Energy levels, pushing it further with the growth in soul classes. Another way of extending the point wall is to push oneself to the limit, usually by absorbing much more energy than is required or combat. Howbeit, the c
The teacher adjusted his glasses, taking a cursory look at the class of 45 students. The students wearing various styles of the latest fashion."Children of nowadays eh!" He sighed.Straightening up, he cleared his voice putting on the classic teacher stern look:"Let's do something different today. How many of you know about the rich culture of the Yoruba kingdom, of ancient times?"At that, a girl jumped up. She had glasses on too, obviously the class nerd with an all back braid plait. "I do, sir. About the times when the Orisha were not yet walking the Earth, right?" She asked gingerly.The teacher laughed, wiping his mustache with a white handkerchief. "That is close but not quite it, Stephen. Nice try!""Ouch!""Ooh""Hurts!"The class suddenly erupted in laughter as they mocked Stephen with various oohs and Aahs. Sullen faced, She sat down after making faces to the close classmates about her."Ooh, com
It is theorized, scientifically, that the Brain is the last organ to die. All other organs begin to fail, each one fading off and failing to support the biological machination of human flesh and blood but the brain remains, seconds later, fighting before giving in, eventually.This was not any different in Bayo's case.HONKKKKKK....Was the last sound Bayo heard before his body went haywire. In a flash, the world tumbled over and over, fading off only to come clearer for a few seconds.'God... God... No... No... Stop!' Bayo screamed mentally.At the corner of his vision, he saw the old security guard screaming but not for long as darkness began to fade in gradually.He gasped after it appeared he reached his maximum height and then began to tumble down. He felt all shades of sick as his insides spun round and round.'No... no...no... somebody... anybody... help... anything to grab... please' Bayo panicked mentally as
Blink!In the darkness about, light suddenly sparked, bringing warmness to the dread, sad air.Bayo's conscience flickered, a glimmer of hope in the spark of light he saw. His sense of feel began coming to focus.He tried to feel where he was, floating in a space of nothing. Peeking forward, he felt gloomy dark around.He panicked.'Wait, where am I?'Trying to take forward look, he reached for his face but nothing.'My hands still not working?' He thought.But that didn't seem like it. He tried to move his legs but felt nothing.'Maybe I'm so injured I can't move.' He thought, resigning himself to fate.He tried again, moving his body, any part, but this time a restricting force began to come on him.In annoyance, Bayo mentally refused and felt the restricting forces that came latched on him at several points disappearing.He sighed mentally, obviously relaxed. As he did, a flood o
For a minute or so, Bayo felt nothing. Emptiness.Then Thoom!A sudden blast of various scents hit him all at once. He could feel the heat of the sun blazing harshly at him and the stale air around accompanied with the smell of fresh grass.Wow!This is how it felt to be alive.'Ah, I miss being alive.' Bayo reached for his face but felt nothing like arms.'Wait, I am still bodiless?' Disappointed, he sighed, mentally.'Yasmin, uhm... you there?''Yes?' Yasmin's cool, collected voice came once more in his head.'Why don't I have a body?' He asked.'If you had been patient earlier with the Ascender Induction, all of this would be explained already.' Yasmin replied.Bayo frowned mentally.'Well, help me, damn you.'Nothing.'Yasmin?' Bayo asked uncertainly.Why the forge was Yasmin quiet suddenly.'Yasmin, please, I'm scared. Don't leave me alon
Bayo exhaled now, baring out his fangs. He took a minute, observing his body carefully. He had strong muscles that pulsated with strength as he stood. His claws too were black and dangerously deadly.No way was any beast going to stand in it's way.He felt so super strong.Untouchable!Don't get too caught up, Bayo. Focus. For craps sake there might be an even mightier form out there.He cautioned himself. With that note, he turned around, sniffing in the stale forest airs.He had to admit it. All of this was wonderful but first he had to really explore his chances of survivability.'Status, Yasmin'For some frightening minutes, Yasmin was quiet.'Yasmin?' Bayo called out quietly'Yassssmiiinnnn...' he called out in a sing song mental voice.Still no response.'Shit! Don't leave m
Here, you saw the title, right? Of course, yes, they would return. You certainly have not seen the last of it. So, like what was done at the start of this volume, we had an author boss note where we discussed the charcters and whatnot. Remember i mentioned that I was nto goign to make bayo the entire focus of it? Well, he kind of became focus of it being that the whole novel is geared to his wellbeing. Lol. At the ending, we can see that he is paying the price in full for the warnings Yasmin issued to him. Dont ignore soul adaptation but what does Bayo know? And i certainly cannot blame him. He has a lot of pressure on him, forcing him to amke the most drastic measures to ensure he is not lagging behind. But reclal that Bayo did not tart life as the toher Ascenders. All the Ascenders started their Life at the soul class of Elite. Elite is from 1000pts and above. BUt Bayo began from Basic Class,with less than 20pt which wa
And Pain.. “AAAAAGAGHHHHHH!” The huntress yelled out as the chunk of earth ripped through her back, spearing its way through her entire body, all the way from the back to the front of her. “Now, you can burn!” Ronke said and then, with a smile, she stomped her feet on the deck of the ship, willing back all of the flames that she had been keeping at bay. All of it, towards the screaming form of the huntress even as the ship began to break and scatter into bits of matter down the mountain ranges below. “Now, now." Ronke said, smiling as she willed up a gust of wind to take her off the deck as the deck finally succumbed to the head and the destruction of the flames even after it provided a dying frame for the figure of the huntress earlier. And then,the hull of something already so familiar appeared, rising above the form of Ronke. It lowered itself, a figure, which was Hana standing at the foredeck with her hand extended waiting to take the hands of
A large spike of Earth tore through the front deck of the ship, ripping through the spot that Slyka had stood in only seconds away now. The moment it ripped through,a gigantic explosion of flames burst out in the lower deck now, the entire mass of the licked up in instant flames and heat, turning out to be a massive firework in the sky. Now.... Ronke panicked. The level of destruction that she had caused with her earth spike stalling was catastrophic. She had to keep a wall of oxygen deprived air about her to keep the flames from gathering around her or ve scathing her own skin. She was not insusceptible to fire,after all, despite being able to control fire though. She was worried. But then, the worry about the CFR was the least of her concerns. After all, in the battle scene, who had to worry about what happened to the enemy. The person who did do that was the one who was willing to get himself or herself at the losing end of the whole thing. But for h
The Hunter is a killing machine which is specifically designed for such missions of severity, they do not show emotions and have no need for that because for the missions which they are assigned for, they have to be through and effectively. Their blows need to count and so the hunters are given new identities and introduced to the quality demanding system of the CFR. WHich would mean that even their souls are inculcated and taught about the values of the Cfr. In Other Words, they live for the CFR. However,this option of being a Hunter or Huntress is always so optional and never is forced on those within or without the CFR organization. It is only for those who truly seek to unlock the next level that the Cfr holds the key to. Lest we digress, the hunter is a single entity of overwhelming force. Unless the Hunters are all occupied at the moment or the CFR wishes not to involve them, then the army of
In life, we often do not have the option of choice. I mean, there is always the matter of choice but most times we have to choose between a great evil, and a far greater evil. In times like that, our sense of being is completely eroded, vanished from sight as we try to make the best of what we have to do. Sure enough, there might be a choice, lurking somewhere down the alley but for the matter of time being, we are blinded to it. And thus, the inevitable is what we eventually have to come for. Our choices are forced by the circumstance of the present situation. Which in hindsight does not look like a choice rather. In thesis is life and his priorities to keep. So, then, knowing about the instability of battle, the question is put out to all of you here. When faced with the tightest of situations, what would you do to ensure you live? To ensure that your values are not completely wiped out. In this situation, we have a matter of doing what is b
‘Yeoowww’ Bayo could only scream out in his mind, mentally as his whole body went through a wreath of red hot flames. Still in the gust of the momentum of the jump from earlier, his body went on, traversing space as he crossed the distance which was between the two ships. His body was roasting and he flew tall of the what, all of his insides feeling like marshmallows now. And oh, how hot the fumes were. The mere scent of the smoke that was about was roasting his nose, smelting down all of his internal organs that dealt with smell and breathing. His body hairs kept on shrinking as they blazed, the entire mass of the Lightning Fist Chimp now reduced to a literal burning mass of meat. Panic surged through his body now as Bayo crashed down to the decking of the larger CFR ship. While he wanted to re
The feeling had been instantouse for Bayo. For him to switch into the form of an Adze all in a bit and then revert back to the form of a Familiar Prime had been all so super fast. It was something which he did not think he would have been able to achieve, without Yasmin with him. Yes, of course, he could just as easily switch his body form ,without Yasmin being involved but also, he had to consider the event of the last time. He had spoked Ronke and the rest up when he had suddenly switched into the form of a growing Familiar Prime, as a youngling. He would not want something of such to repeat itself again, especially since it was bound to be a really rough ride in a bit, being that the CFR pursuing ship had arrived. It would be best not to unsettle anyone so that they could focus on what was really necessary and pivotal to their staying in the air for longer.
Beside a thorough negotiation skill as one of the prerequisites for a good CFR agent, another thing is to be considered in the midst of the yet many factors about a CFR agent. While the others may be so desiring, we would stress here once again, that lethal force is not always so desired in the CFR. If there is need forreal lethal force, there is the outer Consort of the Drakonian Confederacy or even the Inner Consort of the Drakonian Confederacy Army. If need be for thorough lethal force, then the army would be duly notified. An in such case this is often out of the hand of the CFR, However, be it known that it does not undermine the quality of the Cfr. While there is this option, the CFR does have its availability of lethal force. The Guardian and her aides are entities that are capabal of hta, so unless situation has escalated more than the numerous well trained CFR agents, then, Leth
Earlier… GBA MMM! A loud bang exploded now and the ship suddenly rocked to the left violently. Bayo could only growl silently in pain as his head, in reaction to the sudan movement, bounced against the wooden bar just before his head, towards the left hand side of the bed. “What happened?” ROnke and Hana shouted almost immediately as they jolted out of the cabin, looks of questioning on their face towards the one at the cockpit. Shin. ‘Well…” Shin cried out to them, his head tilted upwards, looking at something which was beyond them. “We have company and they have real mood swings.” He said, tilting to the right with the steering wheel as he attempted to stabilise the ship now. ****
