All Chapters of Ascenders: Rising From Zero: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

"Shadows Eye." The duo chanted as they faded into their shadows escaping the sonic roar. They popped up in front of the investigators smiling.But it was such a wrong move as two astral claws gripped their necks up high."Shit!" They cursed."The move is so easy to anticipate." Mackrys muttered while Terilius groaned on his knees."It's useless, we failed." Deola muttered as the astral paws began to lower while essence trailed from her eyes, mouth and nose."Tsk... can't use Agbara here." Tobia growled, squirming."You don't get it? The ghastly rod is meant to immobilize and cut off the victims acess to Agbara. Somehow he by passed it through his partners help but that doesn't mean the rod isn't trying to shut it down. As we are in the grip, that extends to us too.""Well... once we land, there'll kill us." "Yes, what do we do?" "I'm with the detonate item." "Me too."Tobia's

-SPOILERS- (Skip to Chapter 5 if new)-SPOILERS- (Skip to Chapter 5 if new)-SPOILERS- (Skip to Chapter 5 if new)-THIS chapter will be updated as author seems fit-If you have suggestions of specie you will like to see in the novel, comment here.***Do note that all creatures listed here are mostly spirit beings and as such require energy to keep about. (Humans are not spirits so they aren't counted in this novel)———Maximum energy levels is the highest energy that is accessible to each specie which will dictate the strength growth of that specie unless with aid of external factors. Only by studying the Aspectual Laws or the Laws Of Sin May a specie be able to ignore its Maximum Energy levels, pushing it further with the growth in soul classes.Another way of extending the point wall is to push oneself to the limit, usually by absorbing much more energy than is required or combat.

The teacher adjusted his glasses, taking a cursory look at the class of 45 students. The students wearing various styles of the latest fashion."Children of nowadays eh!" He sighed.Straightening up, he cleared his voice putting on the classic teacher stern look:"Let's do something different today. How many of you know about the rich culture of the Yoruba kingdom, of ancient times?"At that, a girl jumped up. She had glasses on too, obviously the class nerd with an all back braid plait. "I do, sir. About the times when the Orisha were not yet walking the Earth, right?" She asked gingerly.The teacher laughed, wiping his mustache with a white handkerchief. "That is close but not quite it, Stephen. Nice try!" "Ouch!""Ooh""Hurts!"The class suddenly erupted in laughter as they mocked Stephen with various oohs and Aahs. Sullen faced, She sat down after making faces to the close classmates about her."Ooh, com

It is theorized, scientifically, that the Brain is the last organ to die. All other organs begin to fail, each one fading off and failing to support the biological machination of human flesh and blood but the brain remains, seconds later, fighting before giving in, eventually.This was not any different in Bayo's case.HONKKKKKK....Was the last sound Bayo heard before his body went haywire. In a flash, the world tumbled over and over, fading off only to come clearer for a few seconds. 'God... God... No... No... Stop!' Bayo screamed mentally.At the corner of his vision, he saw the old security guard screaming but not for long as darkness began to fade in gradually. He gasped after it appeared he reached his maximum height and then began to tumble down. He felt all shades of sick as his insides  spun round and round.'No... no...no... somebody... anybody... help... anything to grab... please' Bayo panicked mentally as

Blink!In the darkness about, light suddenly sparked, bringing warmness to the dread, sad air. Bayo's conscience flickered, a glimmer of hope in the spark of light he saw. His sense of feel began coming to focus.He tried to feel where he was, floating in a space of nothing. Peeking forward, he felt gloomy dark around.He panicked.'Wait, where am I?'Trying to take forward look, he reached for his face but nothing.'My hands still not working?' He thought.But that didn't seem like it. He tried to move his legs but felt nothing. 'Maybe I'm so injured I can't move.' He thought, resigning himself to fate.He tried again, moving his body, any part, but this time a restricting force began to come on him. In annoyance, Bayo mentally refused and felt the restricting forces that came latched on him at several points disappearing.He sighed mentally, obviously relaxed. As he did, a flood o

For a minute or so, Bayo felt nothing. Emptiness. Then Thoom!A sudden blast of various scents hit him all at once. He could feel the heat of the sun blazing harshly at him and the stale air around  accompanied with the smell of fresh grass.Wow!This is how it felt to be alive.'Ah, I miss being alive.' Bayo reached for his face but felt nothing like arms. 'Wait, I am still bodiless?' Disappointed, he sighed, mentally.'Yasmin, uhm... you there?''Yes?' Yasmin's cool, collected voice came once more in his head. 'Why don't I have a body?' He asked.'If you had been patient earlier with the Ascender Induction, all of this would be explained already.' Yasmin replied.Bayo frowned mentally.'Well, help me, damn you.' Nothing.'Yasmin?' Bayo asked uncertainly.Why the forge was Yasmin quiet suddenly.'Yasmin, please, I'm scared. Don't leave me alon

Bayo exhaled now, baring out his fangs. He took a minute, observing his body carefully. He had strong muscles that pulsated with strength as he stood. His claws too were black and dangerously deadly. No way was any beast going to stand in it's way.He felt so super strong.Untouchable! Don't get too caught up, Bayo. Focus. For craps sake there might be an even mightier form out there. He cautioned himself. With that note, he turned around, sniffing in the stale forest airs.He had to admit it. All of this was wonderful but first he had to really explore his chances of survivability. 'Status, Yasmin'For some frightening minutes, Yasmin was quiet. 'Yasmin?' Bayo called out quietly'Yassssmiiinnnn...' he called out in a sing song mental voice.Still no response.'Shit! Don't leave m

Bayo trudged on, pushing his wobbly cub feet to walk. Each gait was seemingly tough to pull by. Honestly, if he knew that he was not going to become that all might 17 energy rated Dog earlier, instead of this wobbly weakling of a cub, he would have just passed by.InFact, Giving Yasmin control was so much better than this form he was in.Come to think of it, how was he going to survive here? He had only one thing on his mind.That is to eat Salamanders. Yuck! Beside that, he had nothing else. And that wasn't sounding good to him.What if he encountered a beast that decided on tasting him?What were his survival chances? He couldn't fight as a dog.How do dogs even fight?In his last life, he had only two legs but now having four seemed unsettling. But that didn't mean he was going to ditch this life however. Taking a quick glance around the forest again, he noticed the heavily
