“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
Sir_ImpeccableTime to introduce other siblings of Bayo. It is time for a good reunion, right> ? Lol

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.
Ascenders: Rising To Hero 168. The Ascender Chase
--- “HAHAHAHA…” Loud peals of laughter rent the air as the fast moving figure of the Kpelekpe hit the streets. His body blurred through the street, hitting every alcove, every dim corner in a crazy zigzag pattern. Using that to seek cover while he burst through the populated mass of the City. And when it came down to places with so many people around, he did not hesitate to push and shove his way through. And while he stuck at that, he kept sure to align himself with the buildings instead of being out in plain sight. He was not here to take risks. Not when he had two Ascenders on his trail. Just when did Ascenders start working together? He pondered, making sure that he would not get caught by either of them to fin

Taking that as a cue, he smiled to himself and then leaned backwards, his right leg stretched out behind him in an athletic pose, while his left leg was angled to his chest. He had his two hands to the sides of him, tightly, one stretched out widely and the other one brought closer to him like an athlete would do when they were about to race. “Haha. Ditched you too.” He laughed now, his body beginning to glow faintly, the entire outline of him turning translucent. BOOOOOM. Shockwaves exploded out from the back of his feet as his frame shot out into the road in front of him. Dust swirled up and loose matter picked up in the wind , the entire place becoming cloudy and shaded by the floating matter. However, when it cleared now, the Kpelekpe was still in the same spot.<
Ascenders: Rising To Hero 170. Heroes do not fear
Earlier. Bayo heaved for the umpteenth time as he considered the odds of this time alongside with Shon. If this was some Ascender who was in the environs, then this was some unaccounted stuff. He did not want to lose but at the same time, he did not want to be assimilated. He had come pretty close to being assimilated by the other Ascenders, except for the times of Vera, the second born, who was only intent on frustrating the life out of him. This new life, Bayo heaved once more, rubbing his face, it was tasking. He looked to Shin who was watching him with rather expectant looks on his face, as if to ask him what was the game plan here. He had changed over the course of time now. He had to make sure that he did not slack. At least, not when Shin was in the picture. Shin was the perfect one who should have been the First born. Not him. He was only struggling to keep up to that reputation which was why he did not want to meet any of the Ascenders just l
Ascenders: Rising To Hero 171. Crowning the New Elemental
Ronke smiled now. ‘Well, the demon waves never had to fight me. Upon my honor, they never had to fight myself nor my friends.” The female Familiar let out a fiendish grin. The Elders looked at her with their mouths open as if they had just seen a ghost. The Fire Familiar made to speak but then he held back, his hands twitching by the front of him. “Er…” Ronke sighed, looking down at the sudden silence that ensued about her. Had she said too much? Behind her, the three Elders all exchanged glances with one another as they held their tongue. Once they did that, they turned to look at the Fire Familiar to ask for his opinion o the mater. But as they did, they could pick out the cluelessness on his face.

Ascenders: Rising To Hero 173. Sibling Reunion
After saying that mantra in his heart, Bayo took in a large breath as he tried to calm his nervous heart. His body shook involuntarily as cold sweat broke out on his skin. When last had it been that he had willingly walked to meet any Ascender? He had never done it, if he could remember. The other time that he had come as close as that was when he was new to the Seven Heavens and he had met the Seventh Born who had tried to assimilate him right there and then. He would have been history now, if not for the sake of the appearance of the Second Born, Vela, who had come in the way of things and saved him. In fact,the way she went about it had set his heart ablaze. About how he wanted to be that powerful. Powerful enough to make the others fear him. But never for once did he think he would carry himself to meet any o
Ascenders: Rising To Hero 174. Sibling Reunion II
In the times of the present such as this, we know of the measures that have been placed in motion. The killjoy plan of killing each and every Ascender out there by the Ascender Extermination Force has already been put into motion. And as we know of it, some Ascenders have already been hunted by the Irunmole Society and have, as we speak, been destroyed, wiped out from existence. That or they have them in custody, hoping to learn something from them from what Trixius the Great plans to do. We know of the 13th born who escaped from the bounds of their detention camps and then chased after the First Born consistently with the aim to assimilate him. If she had been successful with her mission, perhaps, our focus would be on her, as the owner for the First born essence now. By definition

196. Fate Has Decided
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.

193. Ronke's Gambit
Life is not one thing that is set in stone. Our fate is not set in stone. One moment, we may think we have it all but then at that same moment, Life plays its expensive jokes at our expense. There and then, the life that thought was perfect immediately takes a sour turn, making for nightmares what once thought we had. It is a pitiful tale of our own very existence but it is so that we must live. One by which we must abide in, as far as we are not gods.

There is nothing in life, that being said, there is everything in life. Let us not think that at our best moments, we do not expect the worst. Always set out good things but then, keep a handy
192. The Wave is Over
“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. What if they decide to turn Bayo over to seek the peace like they usually had to do/ Her Heart raced, numerous thoughts surging through them. She would have to find a way to protect him. Sh
191. To defeat a Sonic Beetle
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. The Turtle Backed Sonic Beatss was already in front of him and the form of it was indeed tremendous. Just like he had seen from a distance. 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
190. Brother and Sister in Arms
“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
189. Stepping Up as First Born
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
