We have gotten to the middle of this books. It’s time to sound out all the hidden plots of this novel. See you along the way. Cheers!
“Ahhhhhh…”“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhuu…”“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…”“Hhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaa…” The distinct scream from Blesing continued tumbling through the air as her body quickly lost balance. In a fit of fear, she had jumped. Unwilling to find out what was coming after her. Or even what made that sound at all. The initial thoughts about this being a game completely eluded her now. She would rather be close to the one who brought her here. Than be away and be under attack by something strange. How would she explain herself to Lekan for not being able to reach him? That it was because of something strange which roared at her? Certainly not in the works.“Ahhhhhhhhhh…”“Yeow!” She howled out in pain as her body slammed into a jutting rock. Before bouncing off for another protruding rock.THUD!“Ouch!”THUDDDD!“Agghhhh!” She grumbled non stop just as he continued to bounce form one rock to another. The pain was sudden. Searing and instant. She screamed out her dissatisfaction about this g
“What?” Blessing gasped out. She looked at Dayo now. But the latter was gone. Her heart missed a beat as she panicked. She instantly swerved around, trying to locate him. But to No avail.“No… no, not again!” She grunted.Only for her eyes to catch the sight of something in black below her. It brought her relief. This time, she jumped down. Luckily for her, the distance was not that far until she got to actual ground.Only rolling in when she came to the ground. This time, she was thankful for the exercises she had with Monsieur Louise. It was so far helping her in being able to twist her body so that she was able to roll. Without having to experience the same thing she experienced when she jumped down, the first time. “So what’s the idea now?” She asked, running after Dayo.The man continued to walk, without looking back at her. When he finally acknowledged her presence , he had that annoying smile on. “Stop following me.” He mentioned it to her. “What?” She stopped short in surp
“Ah!” Blessing yelped as he pulled her hand.Without a warning form him, his body soared through the air. His feet effortlessly slapping against the ground while his hand continued to grip into her.It was very uncomfortable for her. Considering how very tightly he clutched on to her. She wanted to yell at him. But on second thoughts, he was only doing this for her own benefit. So she shoved it down her own throat, enduring until they got under the cover. For a second or two, the bombardment outside continued. The atmosphere rose up in heat. It got very uncomfortable even to the point of her sweating. Which brought back the question to her. If Dayo was indeed right, the how come she was feeling the uncomfortable heat of the flame bombardment out there?Did that not mean that this place was very dangerous to just anyone? And that the things in here could very much hurt her?Even though he said the trauma of a thing, she did not want to try it. At least, based one the type of uncomfort
“Uh…” Lekan groaned now.He tried to open his eyes but it felt so heavy. Why did it feel so damn heavy? What happened? Why did it every thing feel so very distant from him?He tried to make sense of it but the more he tried, the least he could do. He was tired. It felt very tiring even for him to think. His mind would not just settle. The smell of medicine started to attack his nose. Wah was it? How was it possible that he would gain his consciousness now and he would smell medicine? What happened?BEEP!Beep!!The continuous beeping sounds started to echo out in his ears. He found that very annoying he wished it would just go off but then… there was not nothing he could do about it. The more he thought about it, the more fatigue rushed into his mind.He just wanted to sleep. But at the same time, it felt so wrong for him to sleep. He had to wake up. He had been asleep for far too long?What even happened? Lekan tried to think again. All he saw was pitch darkeness that greeted him.
The yell from Lekan was disheartening. Even to her. She had been by his bedside, refusing to leave even when she had almost been dragged away. No amount of threat or promise would make her leave.Now, everything paid off. Lekan was back. Unfortunately, he was not back to himself yet. At least, not the way she wanted. Not the Lekanwho would be bothered by her staying at the bedside. Not the Lekan who would be concerned about her questions. This one was distant. And lost. Pain stuck her heart as she witnessed the yell from him. The arching of his back and the crazied expresion from him. The sounds of footsteps marching into the room disrupted her thought process, seeing the nurses rush in. Obviously disturbed by the sudden yell from him. She gasped for breath just as she was nudged away unceremoniously. Though not consciously. The nurses who rushed in did not give a second thought as they all clustered around his bed.“What’s wrong with him?” Several voices rose all at once. She c
“I’m sorry. What?” May was charged up as she moved up to him. Anger was vividly displayed through her furrowed eyebrows and twisted lips.Even Favor was charged up as well. The latter who had been silent only fuming. Her lips slightly ajar in disbelief at this.It was his guts for May. She was stunned at the alacrity he displayed in coming in here. The fact that he had no human feelings to even say something like that. In the sight of the boy who was only recovering was annoying to her.His recovery ought to be outmost priority so what was he talking about? And whatever gave him the guts to get in here and say something like that, Something as ludicrous as that? Who wouldeven believe that? Which was why she could not place her head around it. How was it possible that he would come in here to say something like that and he so confident about it? She was angered ag it. That was why she held her hands back lest it went out against her face.Prof Bumj had a smile on his face. As if he
Livid did not cut it for him. He was beyond pissed. And he was tired. Tired of the fact that bumju was busy playing around. Like this was all some sort of fun for him. Something which he did not find very funny. And so. The inevitable happened. He lost his cool and that was it. His voice went out all out against the man, ignoring the age difference between the two of them. He was Nigerian on and out. And from this part of the world, there was a strong concept of respect for the elders. It was drummed into the ears of the children right from a young age. And he was no exception. He was no exception, especially when he attended a boarding school. That only complicates things.Thus after his yell at the man, the next thing he felt was the intense guilt that overtook him. He wanted to apologize instantly, his lips splitting already to spill out the words. Then he remembered that man was basically smiling through all of this. Though he did not expect much from him, the least that c
“What is the condition now?” Lekan asked again. He was tired of waiting at this juncture now. He wanted to know hate as applicable now. Especially since he saw the lady Beatrice in the room now. And the fact that she spoke on needing him with them as some sort of evidence. Perhaps, they were in trouble and his coming with them would prove to be sufficing for them. He wished it was within his power to refuse whatever they wanted to hurl at him. Just so that he would be able to see them get into that trouble. The trouble they were avoiding getting into by getting him with them. But that was beyond him for now. At least, he would have to be with them. AT the Bureau for him to know what was happening there. And unless he went there, with them which was what they wanted, he would never know. What Was even the probability that they were using a system on him to influence his thoughts process as of now? “Don't think that far.” Lekan breathed to himself. It was hurting to think of th
His vision was not like this. The future had changed. Lekan realized that now as he stood with the Mana blockers in tow. He locked eyes with Blesing who continued with her spell, unbothered by the fact that he was hee. And the strange creature of a woman that he had grown to be familiar with, in the red flowing gowns seemed to be urging her on. Whatever Blessing was doing, the woman in the red flowing gown seemed to need it quite urgently. He could not shake off the bad feeling about it. And the sensation that's why was his opponent. The feeling that he had had to fight her in a distant future. A future which a snow repeating itself for him, His vision waived now. The things he saw changed in a blink. In this time, he saw himself on the ground and a council which held over his head. They deliberated one thing about him and how to ensure that the timeline changed. {See the prologue} It felt very familiar to him. And this time, Lekan could not deny that this happened. Understand
Lekan got out of the building. Frost things first, he would get to make sure that blessing was alright, then he would make sure that the Bureau was set right. He did not want to run. Not away from it. He had been running for far too long and look what that led him to? What if as I ran away, more things started to happen to innocent people? People like Keder, the Bureau stealing her life and youth from her. The anger started to boil in him that he did not know when he started to run towards Blessing. The latter continued her spell as more and more mana started getting sucked into it. ‘ Just then, two people landed down from a building. One Of them having purple tattoos on her back faded off into nothingness. While the other one pumped his legs towards Lekan. Itw as Frank and Lekan. In no time, Frank caught up with Lekan and with strong hands, he hoisted him from behind. “What?” Lekan gasped out. His arms locked up from behind his back.. By the time he turned backwards, he
Just like it started, in the suddenness of the day, it ended. Relief swept across the ranks of the system bureau in one accord. They could all sit back and take in gasps of air. They had one priority while trying to ascertain what they were up against. They Had one thing which they had to do. And thaw was what they carried out all diligently. The safety of those who weep with them. THose who did not know what it meant to be system holders as they could not effectively fight back. Those who needed to be helped just because they did not have a system to start with. This was the priority of the higher ups in the actions. Only fighting back when they had no chance. All hope had been cast on monsieur Dayo and the actions he had been doing at the Research Facility. The research which had kept him busy back then, the same thing which had made him invulnerable to any threat which came from the council towards his being. It was in this moment that he would prove his mettle and hsi wor
She saw him. This was not like the threat that they had just faced down but it was still a threat for them. She glinted in anger as she started to run now. Ignoring the call of the other girls as they realized that the other demon had vanished as well. Thai was not their fight, at least, until they received further instructions from Monsieur Dayo on what to do next. His body scaled through the broken down side of the walling of the class snow. With her body still in drive now, she drove her hands to the stomach part of the demon. With quick succession ,she dealt multiple mana blocking blows there and then. The diamond screeched and the result was concluded immediately. It fell down with a thump as it revealed her to the people in the classroom now. And to the one she was looking to see. ‘Lekan!” Blessing called out with excitement in her face. “Blessing?” Lekan turned around with surprise in his eyes. He was hardly taken aback with many things. He knew that something would
Earlier on…. When he got the summon from Monsieur Demas, Dayo knew it was pretty serious. It wasn't something to be taken lightly. Especially when they had just crossed a milestone now. The unveiling of the Bureau would just be out there. This would be a major setback, if they did not handle it well. And so, he let go of the grudge he had with Monsieur Demas. After all, beyond their conflict and personal interest, they still had a duty to the System Bureau. They had to fly its flag and answer the summons against anything which was out there to bring it devastation and destruction. And this summon was just one of them. He braced for combat., literally. Donning his costume as what they knew of him as The Switch. He had to be ready for just anything and that included what he wore. This time, things would be different, Msnier Dayo said to himself even as they poured into the System Bureau. They would not have to depend on him alone in the combat of whatever they had to face. This
His words brought courage to all of them. Even Lekan himself could not help but feel fired over the words that he spoke. Perhaps, now, the perspective n of Donald by the people of his special class would change now. Change for the better, no doubt. The demon lady is frustrated. She shook her head, stomping her legs as her four arms slapped down on her waist now. “ Oh No! I hate this. Don't you play tricks o0n me>” he growled out as the decoy which she held in her hands now faded into nothingness. It was not the prey she wanted. And it infuriated her. “wEe need space.” Donald mentioned now. “Helen, your turn.” he called out. Immediately Helens dropped down to the ground. She slapped her hands flat out on the floor and then with a chant, her eyes went dark. All blacked out. “Shadow domain.” Dark circles appeared on the ground. They grew instantly with the demon lady with in the center of it now. The circles expanded instantly, merging into one gigantic black shimmering cir
The moment he got to know about the invasion of demons in this place; the first thing he did was to find a way to reach Leslie. He pretty much was trying to find his way about things in this place. And the only one who had shown the willingness to show his way around was none other than Leslie. Frank heaved as he held his right arm. It has healed over the time since the last time he had to get physical with anybody. And thankfully, there had been no cause for him to get involved with any fight. That is, he assumed Lee Min must have learnt his humility and then stayed to himself afterwards. He smiled to himself over this thought now. In the time past, he never did see himself as someone who would have to avenge anybody but now, it was becoming sort of his motto. Not like he was complaining about it. After all, the responsibilities of a King were numerous. And he had to exact them with the proper justice that was needed for each situation he found himself in. “What do we do?” HE
Power in the hands of chaotic beings is just a lower sample of hell. The demons surged about, numerous in their numbers as they screeched and roared. The unlucky humans who got up in their paths were gobbled up, eaten and then regurgitated as pieces of bones and blood. Fear gripped the ranks of the Bureau. In all their times of weidling systems, they never did expect to run into something like this. It has always been about fighting humans. Humans who would go against the way of things of the Bureau. Those who would flaunt the order of things. Those who would would want to thwart the general agenda of the Bureau. Never about things of this proportion. Never about misshapen beings that looked like a hybrid of several creatures. Black with wings, baleful eyes of red with poor patchwork of muscles over long bones for the ones who walked. Those ones measured several meters high, even as much as 8ft tall. The ones who flew were the smaller ones. Having the likelihood to apes, flying
Helen sighed, patting the black crop top she had on. The action brought focus to her belly button,the size of a water drop, externally. . It was slightly larger than normal. A phenomenon which was referred to as ‘dodo’ by his country's people. Oftentimes it was used as a term for light hearted mockery. But sighting it on her, the confidence at which she exuded even with it being exposed, it triggered him sexually. He loved her personality. The way she carried herself even though she knew she was not the best. But still had some air of confidence, as well as a bit of empathy. The fact that instead of leaving outrightly with him, she stayed behind to let him clear his head was lovable. Unlike someone who knew. The person of Lady Beatrice. She cared very less whether you’re anted to be teleported or not. As long as she had you in mind to transport, that was what she carried out. Consent or not. “You.” A raspy voice sounded now. It had a tone that spoke of humor and at the same time m
