However when it came down to the males, Shin and Bayo, it had taken a bit more convincing about why they needed to be at the beach.An unusual sight, the beach, the entire surface around the lake being all cleared up. The trees were in the distance, the tall trees of the region all backed out in the corners, creating the perfect border for the lake.

One piece of it to wrap her chest and the other piece remaining as her gown. Hana, on the other hand, had her kimono wrapped to her waist, revealing her innerwear of a sleeveless jumpsuit. Not exactly beachy but for the moment now, it served the purpose. “How are you seeing this whole place and the vibes here? I think it's really satiating and co.

“Who the heck are you guys?” Shin shouted. “Who the heck are we?” the man with the circular painting at the forehead said, his knuckles creased. “You come to our realm and instead of paying proper respects, you think you can jump into our sacred waters and enjoy yourselves? The audacity!” He bellowed. And just as he did now, the other tribe men who had similar markings, except that theirs was of the color of red, drew closer. Each one of them having their gaze as heavy as possible with killing intent oozing off them. At this, Shin and Bayo exchanged knowing glances.

He had placed the right hand to his head, his eyes shut even as he nursed the headache which he had currently. He was bare chested, his chest wound with bandages, from his chest to the armpit of the right hand. Opening his eyes to the dark room, he blinked now, allowing himself to come to terms with where he was. A spark of recognition flared within his mind and he groaned in respect of it. The battle was over. He had lost. And right now, he was right in the home of the healer. The irunmole lady in the whole of the town, Iyabo. “Gah... Tch...” Chef Bamiro frowned some more in pain and rubbed his head together. As he did

After Abiola dispersed the assembly, he had said a few parting words to the crew and then left, his head heavy in thoughts. The City was in mourning. Whether they blamed Ronke for bringing in Ascenders in or not, it did not change the fact that Ronke was gone. There was no way in the Seven Heavens that they were going to get her back. At least, not in the form she was, when she was alive. Ken and Spyder stood a while back, watching but not daring to say a thing. They had not known the crew for too long, their only actual connection being no one sles but Bayo. Now, Bayo was gone. Or rather, Bayo had gone rogue.

“Ah!” Ronke moaned as her body slammed helplessly against the ground. She thrust her hands to both sides, her vision hazy. Looking for something to grab onto and regain her balance. However, for each object she touched, she could only make out the soft, squished and slightly distorted forms of them. These were once living creatures. There were the bodies of the beasts which had been stuck down by the familiars so far. Pride surged in her heart but at the same time, looking on through the hazy vision of hers, she felt a bit of panic. What was Bayo up to now? “Hey, need a hand?” A voice called to her, helping her get back up. Rejuvenated by the source of the voice, Ronke summoned all of her will power as she rose, hefting

Something that was unplanned for. That was what she looked out for. The one thing she would be able to tank out with her Lord Classed Soul Strength. Law of War churned in her soul space, furiously boosting her spirits as she held her blade, tense but ready for action. She dashed to the left, slicing through, her eyes shut.

The Class were one had a Soul Aura, the first true step in the beginning of power ascension. She opened her eyes
