2020-08-13 04:42:43From times of old till now, Orun Apaadi has being and always being the choice hunting grounds for all creatures.
Although at a risk of one being polluted by the raging dark energies that roam the demon infested lands, the immense rewards cannot be overemphasized.
And as such, The BlueMoon Mercenary Alliance has gained mass levels of strength as well as wealth from hunting through the world. This is because of the ever present availability of resource rich creatures, especially Mythic Type Beasts whose understanding of laws gives almost every part of their body an astounding value.
Of Course, there exists Rare Type Beasts with equal amount of value but no one would ever pray to encounter beasts of such kind.
A Rare Type Beast can never be Soul Gazed and as such, no one can ever determine the true level and Powress of them except they are attacked first, which often is no nice sight.
This reason is why this Rare Beasts are abandoned in Orun Apaadi and Mythic types are more sought of.
However the cost of Taint of darkness on the Irunmoles, Spirits of war and light has always been of great concern. The law of light has given some succor in expelling the foreign dark energy by Light Healing Pills. But the most we have gotten is basically a standstill between the dark energy and light energy, each one trying to outdo the other.
The Law of Love, Orisha Osun aspect of reality seems to contain more promise however that is still undergoing research. And until leeway has been given, no one should deliberately take to mastering the Law of Love, especially since it costs so much to master a foreign law( A law one has no affinity to).
Until then, Orun Apaadi will continue to be transversed by us all until it's in-depth riches are unlocked for maximal profit.

[Why are you so weak?]
Shuddering under the continuous super sonic screech, Bayo cursed, painfully, ignoring the calm but sharp voice penetrating his mind.
Damn Beast!
Such a proud entrance!
Just then, he heard a soft thud somewhere above him but far from him. However, he couldn't be bothered by that as the feeling of numbness swept through his body. Bracing himself, Bayo tensed his muscles as the footsteps of the Sky Gargolye's elephant limbs sounded closer and closer.
Gah!
Like as if I can even face this creature head on.
[Why? You look so pitiful, sibling.] The voice came back again, reinforced sharply that he couldn't ignore it.
What?
'Yasmin? Why is your voice sounding different and feminine on top?' Bayo asked, confused.
'I am currently fighting off an invasion of your soul matrix. Something is off, Bayo.' Yasmin voice came in, sounding pained.
[You have two souls, sibling. That is very strange.]
Suddenly, The numbness overclouding him cleared as his conscioness shifted inwards. Before him, he could see a blob of energy sloshing here and there with an attached miasma of darkness.
He frowned, seeing a second blob of energy trying to interact with the first one by sending out streams of energy towards it.
Simultaneously, the miasma shot tendrils of darkness, fending off most of the new energy streams.
'I cannot hold your consciousness here for long, Bayo. We are within your soul space and I brought you in to have a better understanding of what is happening. You must fight back, Bayo.'Yasmin's pained voice ebbed from the miasma.
And FLASH!
His eyes cleared, numbness all gone as he stared right in the face of the Sky Gargolye.
Uh... hi
He waved a paw, hoping that the creature would understand. Instead the Gargolye heaved, a wash of depressing pressure descending all over him. Being so close to the creature now, he felt an inert pressure field build around the Ascender, giving it fearsome vibes.
The Gargolye reared it's beak head backwards, giving Bayo some air time. Gasping, Bayo crept backwards,slowly, watching the Ascender with suspicion that he didn't see it coming.
The three clawed fingers blurred, raking across the ground as it swept into Bayo's side, knocking the air out of him.
Gah!
The air current from the simple wave of hand swept him off the ground, sending him tumbling for some seconds. Then the next second, he crashed down, heavily on his back.
Quickly, he flipped over to his limbs, his feral instincts coming to play. But as he did, something entered his peripheral vision.
The tree by the right of the pathway seemed to have a superficiously large branch that was way bigger than the rest of the trunk.
Taking a quick look, something shifted with slithery patience as gold eyes now revealed themselves, staring at him.
Immediately, that familiar but of attraction sparked in the back of his head making him gasp.
Oh God! Not another Ascender.
*Gasp
[Why That look sibling? Don't tell me you are just seeing me? I feel insulted.]
'Yasmin, can you talk?'
'Only briefly, Yes.' Yasmin's voice was beginning almost a whisper now.
'Can you scan that... snake?'
[Me, Snake? Insult to injury, Bayo.]
How did it learn my name?
[but I don't blame you. You are undergoing soul decline already because of my presence here. Wait, I should help you.]
Just then, The Gargolye struck with its beak down with super fast motion. Faster than Bayo could even react only for the beak to stop few inches from his frame.
HISSSSSS!
A low hiss spread into the air from the serpent, sending chills down Bayo's spine.
[Ah! This Seventh Born Sibling needs to learn to stay low when I am around. I am not his age mate by any means.]
'S-seventh born? What's that?' Bayo asked cautiously.
[Oh, sorry! I have a rather rude sibling here too. Allow me teach this sibling manners. But here, have this from me. ]
A raspy sensation hit him, drowning his senses for a brief moment.
'Full growth stage for young adult IronSpike Tailed Dog reached. Evolving into to Adult Form... Full Growth stage for Adult IronSpike Tailed Dog reac... Ground Class Achive...
What? No!
This is impossible. Your growth was just accelerated. I cannot believe this!' Yasmin complained, bringing up the soul Status Screen without Bayo asking.

Iron Spike Tailed Dog

'You have even broken through the energy limit with a whooping 13 points. You...'
'Just shut up! How's that scan going?I suppose I should be happy but accepting help from strangers is not my thing.' Bayo queried mentally.
Just then, the a flash of light swept through the air, slamming into the Sky Gargolye with tremendous force so much that it reeled over, stumbling until it fell on its back.

Silver Scaled Bakunawa - Rare Type
Soul Status: Omni

The serpent is famed for its affinity with Law of Envy.
—— —
Really?
That it??
'Why are some abilities blank and this Famed for affinity of law or envy. That's like telling me the same thing the law says.'
A deep sigh escaped from Yasmin.
'Rare Type beasts are not meant to be soul gazed. Getting that much was all I could try.'
Gazing in wonder, Bayo observed the serpent as it remained still on the tree. If he was not there, he would never have believed that the superimposed extra tree bough of a serpent had struck against the Sky Gargolye.
So powerful.
'The way the scales connected, forming an overlay of protection for the serpent. It looks so smooth that it appeared as if the skin was bare.'
So deceptive.
So beautiful.
'And the tail, with that fish like ending with yellowy markings. Pretty!'
So Intricately engineered.
'Yes, so intricately engineered that one creature of beauty is capable of containing sheer might.'
So...
[HARK! Snap out of it. You are so weak that my passive ability is already affecting you? Hsssss! ]
HAGH...
Bayo shook his head viciously. Whatever passive ability that was was already mind controlling him to move closer to the serpent.
Looking closer now, the serpent revealed its silver color , no longer fusing with the color of the tree branch. The scales seemed to glow for a while before fading off.
That must have been what was lulling him since.
Damn!
Just how power packed are you already?.
[Enough with your stares already, sibling. Watching my scales will activate my passive ability once more.
And that would be distracting!
I have an annoying sibling to deal with, just hang by the side. Tsk!] The snake hissed, uncoiling itself further from the branch till it was merely hanging down form its head and tail.
[If you don't mind, Bayo, I have a rude sibling to teach manners.]
The Bakunawa dropped from the tree with a massive thud.
'By God, it's massive' Bayo swore, noting the lengthy body of the Serpent coil together.
[Call me, Vela. I am the Second Born. What is your number?]
Vela asked, turning away to face to the Gargolye.

So, like what was done at the start of this volume, we had an author boss note where we discussed the charcters and whatnot. Remember i mentioned that I was nto goign to make bayo the entire focus of it? Well, he kind of became focus of it being that the whole novel is geared to his wellbeing. Lol.

Damage Inventory
And Pain.. “AAAAAGAGHHHHHH!” The huntress yelled out as the chunk of earth ripped through her back, spearing its way through her entire body, all the way from the back to the front of her. “Now, you can burn!” Ronke said and then, with a smile, she stomped her feet on the deck of the ship, willing back all of the flames that she had been keeping at bay. All of it, towards the screaming form of the huntress even as the ship began to break and scatter into bits of matter down the mountain ranges below. “Now, now." Ronke said, smiling as she willed up a gust of wind to take her off the deck as the deck finally succumbed to the head and the destruction of the flames even after it provided a dying frame for the figure of the huntress earlier. And then,the hull of something already so familiar appeared, rising above the form of Ronke. It lowered itself, a figure, which was Hana standing at the foredeck with her hand extended waiting to take the hands of
The Combat of the Air Mistress II
A large spike of Earth tore through the front deck of the ship, ripping through the spot that Slyka had stood in only seconds away now. The moment it ripped through,a gigantic explosion of flames burst out in the lower deck now, the entire mass of the licked up in instant flames and heat, turning out to be a massive firework in the sky. Now.... Ronke panicked. The level of destruction that she had caused with her earth spike stalling was catastrophic. She had to keep a wall of oxygen deprived air about her to keep the flames from gathering around her or ve scathing her own skin. She was not insusceptible to fire,after all, despite being able to control fire though. She was worried. But then, the worry about the CFR was the least of her concerns. After all, in the battle scene, who had to worry about what happened to the enemy. The person who did do that was the one who was willing to get himself or herself at the losing end of the whole thing. But for h
The Combat of the Air Mistress
The Hunter is a killing machine which is specifically designed for such missions of severity, they do not show emotions and have no need for that because for the missions which they are assigned for, they have to be through and effectively. Their blows need to count and so the hunters are given new identities and introduced to the quality demanding system of the CFR. WHich would mean that even their souls are inculcated and taught about the values of the Cfr. In Other Words, they live for the CFR. However,this option of being a Hunter or Huntress is always so optional and never is forced on those within or without the CFR organization. It is only for those who truly seek to unlock the next level that the Cfr holds the key to. Lest we digress, the hunter is a single entity of overwhelming force. Unless the Hunters are all occupied at the moment or the CFR wishes not to involve them, then the army of

Sure enough, there might be a choice, lurking somewhere down the alley but for the matter of time being, we are blinded to it. And thus, the inevitable is what we eventually have to come for.

Saga of the Uniquely Stupid Chimp II
‘Yeoowww’ Bayo could only scream out in his mind, mentally as his whole body went through a wreath of red hot flames. Still in the gust of the momentum of the jump from earlier, his body went on, traversing space as he crossed the distance which was between the two ships. His body was roasting and he flew tall of the what, all of his insides feeling like marshmallows now. And oh, how hot the fumes were. The mere scent of the smoke that was about was roasting his nose, smelting down all of his internal organs that dealt with smell and breathing. His body hairs kept on shrinking as they blazed, the entire mass of the Lightning Fist Chimp now reduced to a literal burning mass of meat. Panic surged through his body now as Bayo crashed down to the decking of the larger CFR ship. While he wanted to re
