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
Sir_ImpeccableMore fights or some peacemaking? I don't know. I just know that I didn't let Chief Bamiro have some badass moves and it feels wrong. Chief Bamiro is someone other leaders are scared of so they don't bother him or the town. It would be bad to learn that a Hadjan and a Familair defeated him. Even if this is to redeem his reputation, he has to still find d them...

Obatala, the King of the Gods. The making of a deity who would be the King of Gods and is the King is a mystery that is greatly contested amongst a lot. Notwithstanding, there is even so little information about how the King of Gods came to be. Or how he got to be about the title. But there is one thing which is there for a fact. And that is, Obatala is the First Orisha. Not necessarily the first God or the first deity. Notice the subtle difference between the two of them. An Orisha is not necessarily a Deity. And a Deity may not necessarily be lower than an Orisha. While you may want to get information on why this is so, that would not be the topic for discussion. Some things are best left
Ascenders: Rising To Hero 123. The Masquerade Therapy
You see, the stories about creation are explicit in the true sense of it.When Eledumare created the Universe, he created the first beings that be. Understand first that Eleduamre is a cohesion between the two primary forces that existed before all of time.Olorun, Olofin and Olokun, each of them playing a pivotal role in how the gods did come to be. They set out in various spheres of curation, all of which constitute the reality that we live in.And once they were done, there was the general sensation that something was lacking.

Ascenders: Rising To Hero 124. Inside the Arena
Obatal, the King of the Gods and the King of white cloth. The first amongst the Orisha but certainly not the first being that existed, un terms of being supernatural.Obatala was, in fact, a secondary plan on the part of Eledumare as he/they attended to the affairs of the Earth.Awed by other awesome creation possess, Eledumare set about creating another being which would be like them. Perhaps someone to keep them company. Someone who could best appreciate the art of their works.They did, in their graciousness, give this being powers which could be deemed to be equal to theirs. While it would be rather interesting to discuss why transpired after the creation of this being, the purpose of this document is not to that extent.In other terms, Obatala is the focus of this book. And without doubt, we do know how the story did play out. Obatala was the substitute being who was created in place of the first being. After Eledumare had emerged.Obatala was c
Ascenders: Rising To Hero 125. The Training Prep Talk
Obatala was not entirely a Saint. Truth be told.He was tasked with the creation of the first beings, and the renovation or in better words, the beautification of the planet Earth which Eledumare had created.To go about that, he had to maintain a constant presence with Eledumare, learning as much as he could. Prior to that, the existence of great and mysterious creatures had already being in place. Here in the Heavens.The Heavens is the first place to ever have living beings. And not just any beings, beings with a measure of tremendous power. However, for the sake of this publication, we should not divulge deeply in that. Needless to say, the core focus of this document is to highlight Obatala, who was created as a substitute for the forest sentient being, after Eledumare.Thus talking extensively on other topics would not necessarily cut it.How did Obatala go down to the Earth? There was no record of World Bridges them. Indeed, there is no substa
Ascenders: Rising To Hero 126.The Training Begins
Perhoas it was because of the charge that he received that made Obatala erratic. Or it was simply because of the joy that he was the second one to be chosen, the first Orisha went to Earth in drunken stupor.He had taken with him some palmwine which was freshly fermented, thereby having high levels of alcohol in it. This he had gulped down upon getting to then point where he would reach down to Earth.When he had reached rendenzous point, he had being quite drunk enough. But then not drunk to the point that he could not navigate his way. He took the golden chains which Eledumare crafted specially for him upon hi request, the legendary item that he is known for this day - The unbreaable eternal chains of Obatala.Alongside, he took with him a snail shell and then a poultry fowl, hugging most to his left hand while his right hand kept hoisting the golden horn containing the palm wine for his convenience.

No more did the noise of the crowd disturb the harmony of both Hadjans as they stood still, both of them staring at the ground. 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.

“Did you know about this?” Abiola asked Ronke, mouth agape. “He is a monster.” “Yeah, that does not matter. We won.” Ronke dismissed the conversation. But on looking back, her eyes widened now. Several of the Familiars seemed stuck to even act as they stared at Bayo, standing over the gigantic mass of the Turtle Backed Sonic Beetle. She could instantly guess what they were thinking. Now, they would be putting two plus two together, making their observations about what was really happening. Holding her stomach now, she heaved and then screamed out, free hand in the air.

It was fearsome, its huge buck tripling the confidence of the monsters as it stared at him balefully. “You Want some?” Bayo taunted. ‘Focus, Biayo.’ Yamsin Called out to him. ‘I know, I just want to say something to it.

“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

None of that they had faced up till now could prepare them adequately to face a wave. She knew that much. Despite being Lord Classed, she still felt uneasy. Somehow, something would happen. 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. Fiery aura razing into the atmosphere about her as the air heated up considerably. Her mind went ablaze, alertness level surging high. This was the true power of the Lord Class. The Class were one had a Soul Aura, the first true step in the beginning of power ascension. She opened her eyes
