Hearing those words from Ronke set a strange fire in the heart of Obey. Homeland integrity? Uncertain civilization? What did she mean? What exactly was she driving at? He squinted, his lips pursed as he looked at her with hollow eyes and a confused gaze. But even as he did that, whether she noticed the change in his facial expression or not, the Unique Familiar kept on speaking and expressing herself. Her voice began to rise, the pitch increasing with righteous fire as she spoke to him, fervently with conviction in each words she spewed. “Ignorance is bliss, but ignorance will kill you.” Ronke contorted her face in anger. “But what you know would never KILL YOU!”“W-what... Do you mean... That the Leaders are wrong? That Earth is not an ideal place to be?” Obey retorted

Ronke had been moved to the brink of letting down tears from her eyes when her teammates had spoken up for her.This w as more than she could even dare to ask for . This was a ratag team of people who she had brought together who at this point in time had decided to buy into her vision and her dream. It was something that did have the rights to bring her to tears but for the fear that it would make her look weak, she had refrained from doing so.She smiled to herself now, wiping off the tears from her eyes which had gathered there again now.Thinking back to how Hana had been the first to speak up for her was something of note. This was Hana, the same Hana who would not hesitate to draw out her sword. The same Hana who had believed that it was okay to draw out a sword to slice off the head of anyone who would dare to pick out on them.Yes, there were some times when this was okay. Sometimes when it had been crucial in saving them. Like the time when they did have t

Just then, right abtout the time Ronke wanted to reply, some other steps before the sudden sound . And then, at the flash of a second, three other forms appeared, one at either side of her.Ronke turned around now, seeing to her shock, the three Elders fo Familiar Realms standing one to the East, west and south of her respectively. While the Prime Elder remained right in front of her.“What do you mean by this?” Ronke asked to him, her face frowning as she did not bother to hold back her rage. “This is not the paln. I have no tintention of going down to Earth with you.”“Oh.” The Elder Prime apeared faintly shocked now, his face contorting shortly to shadow a smile on it. “Is that it?” He asked of her.“ Yes, that is si it and you would do better than to tell the people out there that this is what i want.” Sh said to him.“Abiola was right. She was never going to come down to Earth with us. Telling us to get aligned with teh Drakoninan Confederacy, stupid

Dismissed from the company of Ronke; Bayo and the two hadjans had already made it all the way back home.Home?It was a strong concept in the mindset of Bayo. His home was Earth, that much was a given. His mother was everything to him.But that was in the past life he lived. Regrets would not cut for him anything now.No, not by a long shot.His only bet right about now was to make sure that he could get to be at peace where he was. He was sure that his mum, based on how she was, would be relieved and happy once again.

Ascenders: Rising To Hero 163. Hana’s Surprise Discourse II
They wanted to know what this warring lady had to say even though the possibility of it being a trap was very much out there. She could be saying it just to get close to them and deal her vengeance on them but then, their curiosity was already piqued.And so, they retraced their steps, back to Hana. Readying to listen.“You have our attention now.” Bayo said to her once the two of them had began to retarce their steps.“Thank you.” She said in response, clearing her throat.At this very act of her now, the two males exchanged rather curious glances with one another, their foreheads ceased with worry lines as they tried to anticipate what it was that she had to say to them.However, it did not nto take them so long for them to now the subject matter that she was driving at. Hana began to speak and this time, she spoke with conviction, all of which was unbecoming of her usual natur.“You guys have noticed that things in this place is a lot different form how things a

“What are you driving at?” Shin asked, frowning in response. “We are a lot more stronger than we were at that time. I don't think even Ralia could hold up anything to us. At this time.” He said. Haan smiled. “She never held up a candle to us. The only reason why she gave us a tough time was because fo the chaos at the Amphitheatre. We had already used our energy up back then so when it came down to her being in the show, it was a type of walkover for her. I promise that if we do get to meet her I would be the one who puts her down.” Hana added, her words brimming with conviction as her hands were clenched even tighter now. Bayo and SHin shivered at the statement which she made now, AT the time when they ahd to fight Ralia the 13 th Ascender, Hana was already out of commission.

“You are Pseudo Lord Classed?” Bayo asked, confused. A brief pause ensued as the wind blew along silently. “I didn't reach there with the ep of some deity sealed inside of me. I got there on my own power. And I can get up higher on my own power too.” Hana replied. Bayo sighed at this. ‘ It struck him then that he didn't really have the chance to soul gaze either of them so he did not know what their energy was capped at. Not like he did not have the chance, he didn't just see it as a necessary thing. After all, he was only used to soul gaining those who would put themselves against him in the field, not those who he was allied with. But upon hearing what she said now, he had the urge to find out w

“Dnt let him get to you.” The Kpelekpe said as he rubbed his face and then exhaled out to the Sun Down Airs. “You Are the Ascender to Grace. Everything about you is Graceful. Let's get on with what we have to do in this place and beat the road as soon as possible.” The Kpelekpe said as he heaved out. He was the Fifth Born and so far, he knew what it meant to be the Ascender of Grace. It meant that his Presence paved the way for him more than often. He did not have to sweta over things like others would have to. Things just happened to work out for him. And for him, he was more than grateful. The only thing which was bothering him about the recent times was the event of the Wave which would be coming. Inasmuch as he would have loved things to be, he was not yet at the peak of the power that he would ha
Ascenders: Rising To Hero 167. Another Ascender in Town
THUD! The bare feet of the Kpelekpe landed softly on the rooftops now as his hands were drawn out to the side of him. He had a smile on his face, grateful that things were happening to turn out his way despite the presence of the new faces in the town. He no longer had a sack over his shoulder. Instead, the sack or what appeared to be a miniature sized sack of it was tied to his waist, the hem of it being attached to the hem of his trousers now. He had some hair grown out at the ankles and then at the elbows, subtle markings of a hyena beginning to spot on his body. However, just as he landed now, several other figures jumped out in all directions, all of them being members of the Town Guard and with determined looks on their faces, they closed in on him.

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.

Apart from absorbing bloodlines while you fight, what else did you notice about this battlefield/’ Yasmin asked Bayo as he flexed his fingers right in front of the Beast.

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. It's staring at me and making me feel somehow.’ Byao complained. The Beast in front of him seemed to study him with beastial intelligence. It remained still, pausing and waiting while its Beetle eyes

“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

No matter what happened here, Ronke’s plan was not foolproof. Things could always go south. It was for this reason, Hana remained jittery all through the wave. 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
