Face contorted, he struck with the base of his staff at the ground whilst 2nd Prime Anu held him down, using her innate Pseudo DemiG.o.d ability, 'Heavens Might'

Blobs of energy coated her arms, greatly boosting her strength as she held Elder by the shoulder stopping his every moment.

It drained her severely.

She was an Early Pseudo DemiG.o.d Cla.s.sed Irunmole who had broken in just recently. It had enhanced her strength, making her tough to just waive by. With the enhancement, she was able to breach the gap that existed between a Prime in Transcendency and a normal Prime.

Even at that, she could barely hold her own, stopping Elder. True that she was almost at DemiG.o.d level, but the Prime before her, had his powers boosted on par with a DemiG.o.d.

That was something huge.

And to top it all, Elder was not even try to resist her that much. He had tried to move but after she resisted, hands on his arms, locking him in place, he let out his frustration on the staff.

Elder on his own end, looked straight at her , weary and angered.

First he had unleashed several techniques to take down one Wolf. Well, not any regular Wolf. It was a Rare Cla.s.sed 9ft p.r.i.c.kled Bane Winged Wolf.

But still he hadn't expected it to have withstood them much. Maybe because he hadn't practiced in a long while. Maybe that was why he had become rusty.

But again, he could have taken it just before it made any efforts. He could have.

But he chose not to.

All because of the prophecy. Sunday was destinied for darkness. And all the measures he had taken was to prevent the prophecy from taking place. He was even en route to the Ilu of Medicine and Prophecy to properly verify and cleanse his son when the wolf showed up.

Initially, he had let it slide, trying to know just what and why the wolf appeared. Within seconds, he found the answer.

Sunday was the fated being that drew the wolf to them.

And since then, the Orisha went silent on them, even Obatala. For such a thing to happen, it could only mean one thing- Sunday's Existence was a fated to bring doom to the Irunmole World. And the Orishas forbid that his own son would be that devastation.

And that was why he refused to make any attempt to save Sunday.

That was why he had left the wolf to do what it had come here for. To balance out Reality by taking out the fated being-- Sunday.

Elder bit his lips, his breath ragged as he closed his eyes shut, worry and anxiety flooding him.

That decision he made , he wasn't at peace with it. He saw the look on his son's eyes. A look of disappointment and disgust. If he himself was Sunday, he wouldn't have done any better.

His son merely wanted to show that he was strong.

Stupid Child!

'All of what I have done has been in your favour. I wouldn't have been on this journey if not for you. If I didn't love you, none of this would happen.

But some things are just bound to happen nonetheless. It's why I let the Wolf attack you.its why I did what I did.' Elder thought.

The image of the Gryphoon taking his son and Niniola in a distance hurt him deeply.

'If only I didn't have this d.a.m.ned responsibility of being The First Prime. But with great power comes great responsibility and what I do I do for the greater good of my own. And never will it go down in history that My Own Son will be the progenitor of doom. I love you , My Son. But I cannot allow you further.

That was why I had hoped that the Wolf would have taken you down, possibly. But instead, you absorbed it. A feat I still don't believe.

But that goes to prove the prophecy was going to come true.

This Gryphoon, I hope it will complete the job.'

Elder thought, a bitter smile cutting across his face as his eyes glistened.

In a flash of light, his body quivered, trembling under the strain of Transcendency. Transcendency was a move that boosted the power of a Prime but was not one to last long. But because of the belssing of the Orisha as the Elder of all the Primes, being the First Prime of Obatala Ilu, he was able to extend it for this long.

Still it had it's drawbacks.

He s.h.i.+vered as a wave of white light washed over him, slowly wiping of his Transcendency off from him.

Slowly, his golden armor that shone and glittered, giving out sensations of danger s.h.i.+mmered before fading out. His now golden staff followed the same motion, all of it's gold sheen vanis.h.i.+ng down to the bottom.

Before exploding in an explosion of shockwave.

One that Anu was not so able to tank.

The shockwave rocked against her, vibrations. .h.i.tting her every joint as spasms of pain shut through. Instinctively, she pulled her hands, jumping several metres back, her wings giving her an added boost to her jump.

Her form shook too, exhaustion running through it. She wondered why she was able to feel the backlash of Prime's descension from Transcendency. After all she was but a Prime.

She struck out with a Palm to the ground, shooting up fron the ground to her feet. As she did, the Alphas all jumped into position behind her, probably sending a threat from Elder himself.

"Heh... Kilo shey awon eleyi?(1) So, because I jumped back you all piled her, like as if I am a maiden in distress. You under rate me. " Anu screamed, swerving backwards.

Ralia, Sena, Fayose and Balogun immediately went akimbo, heads down as they s.h.i.+fted away , inch by inch.

What had they done to warrant her outburst now. After all, their main mission was to protect the Primes. And in this case, the one who jumped backwards from Elder.

Maerius was doing fine, howbeit, he was on his knees, clutching at the ground.

Disheartened.

"Maerius, listen to me, Elders voice boomed out despite that his Transcendency was off, Find My Son!"

Maerius crouched his back upon hearing that, his face a mixture of emotions. He rose groggily to his feet, clumping the huge blade from the ground as well. His aura oozed out in small amounts, unnoticeable except to the Prime Cla.s.sed.

He heaved.

"As you say, Most blessed of the Orisha. Have the Orishas responded to you sir?"

Far behind him, Elder cluctched his staff tightly. "Find him, I have to take care of my ilu. Please, do what it takes to bring him back. He's my son, after all."

Elder said before he turned his back.

As he did, the s.h.i.+mmering Halo over his head vanished, signalling that he was no longer in for battling. As well as a sigh that seemed to echo on and on.

Meanwhile,

Sunday sat, cross-legged, hands raised in meditatorial mode, his face was clear, free of all worries as he concentrated on absorbing surrounding essence. And what more, his face seemed to be in some sort of excitement.

The type of excitement you give when you've finally found what you searched for.

But what could it be? Niniola wondered.

In all the times she had been with me, she'd never seen that expression on face. It just appeared immediately the bird like creature had dropped down on the Rocky landscape. After it did, it lowered it's head, rubbing the head against her body as if it knew her.

Initially she would have freaked out but not with Sunday in that state of fading off. She turned over to Sunday, noting that his frame was now becoming solid.

At that she heaved, a small smile crossing the corners s of her lips. Taking a step forward, she raised up to seat on his legs folded.

And then, his eyes shot open, the white spirals on his arms and legs radiating brillant light before dulling out.With a smile, he began meditation after noting that hulking bird like creature peeking at him.

He didn't seem to mind or freak out as before times. Instead, a calmness of spirit washed over his entire being, a strong feeling that he had realized something rocked the air.

However same could be said for the bird like creature. It had panicked, flapping it's wings and crawing as if it had sensed potential threat in Sunday. The reaction happened so fast that the only possible thing she could think of was to attack the bird like creature.

"oko killasi..(2)" A spear of solid appeared bursted into view wedged between her fingers. Running forward, to the bird only for it to take off, leaving a whirling storm of dust about.

She had stopped, regaining her senses and chiding herself why she had let out of control like that. She thought and thought about what the bird purpose was as she scanned the environs , half hoping that the bird would swoop down again.

Wary and careful, she stepped further away from Sunday, her light spear gleaming and giving out vibrant heat. She took another step again, noting the bird sailing across the sky.

The way it sailed, it... Something was amiss. Something was.

But that was then.

Afterwards, she had resumed her position in front of Sunday, now watching the graceful calming look he had on.

She soul gazed him, trying to see how far he had healed.

Name: Sunday

Soul Status: Elite

Energy: 10,599

* Huh?!* Niniola gazed, dazed at the Ascension that Sunday's sould had underwent.

"How?!"

' A while ago, you were on Basic or Pseudo Messenger cla.s.s. With energy ranking of 2945.And to top it all, you were just dying then...

But now, you're soul had underwent a jump, ignoring the Messenger Cla.s.s totally to place you in Elite Cla.s.s.

Ah, so the beast you absorbed has pushed you up the hierachy. My G.o.ds, you're getting powerful now. No wonder...

No wonder you had that calm smile on.The Wolf directly jumped you up due to it's High Cla.s.s Rating.

But, if that is it, you should probably be at Omni Cla.s.s* or even Lord Cla.s.s preferably.

Uhm... That should be possible since the Wolf must have been very strong. Hmm.. however , I feel that the wolf was unable to further his soul's exponential growth as a result of the the strain it would out on Sunday.

Probably, that should be why he is just stuck at Elite Cla.s.s.

Wow... That's great. Which means, he can hold his own against a Sky Cla.s.sed Demon.

Possibly even more than that.

If that was it, I mean, Sunday and I could raid Orun Apadi together.

As before times.

Those guys that picked on him then. Now they won't have that chance anymore to do so when I am not there.

Really, this is good.

And with time,you and me, I mean we could... There's so much we could do

Ahh... Orishas, mo dupe ooh( ).' she thought, cheer and excitement as she looked at the possibilities ahead.

Just then, the sqawk of the bird like creature soaring above distracted her from her thoughts. Looking up, she swore under her breath.

She was going to take that thing down.

Whatever it was called.

As she prepared herself to battle thoughts of how she could lure the target down flooded her mind. Just then, a pained gasp escaped Sunday's rather peaceful soul

And she knew what it was. His soul was rejecting the sudden changes it had underwent.

Spasming, Sunday jerked forward, eyes open and rolled up. His arm jerked aith cuts appearing across his face, faint traces of energy escaping.

"No, no, not now.. not now." She muttered, looking left and right, scanning the whole plain.

She had to find it. That plant , the dragonweed was a plant famous for it's soul calming effect. As a result, it greatly slowed Soul Decline And upon continued use, it was known to revive a soul from decline.

That was what she needed now.

It grew just anywhere but a place filled with rocks.

She pulled a foot backward, as she blurred, her perception of time , slowing down to her limits. She bursted forward, miniature rock pieces rumbling behind her.

Thud

Thud

Bam!

She was suddenly halted by her right hand, however the momentum her entire body was on didn't respond easily to her sudden halt. She jerked to her left, propelled by the remaining kinetic force before sucking in air into her stomach and stumbling down.

But what jerked her and stopped her motion didn't allow her fall. It caught her up, then threw her into the air, only to clutch at her throat staring mercilessly into her eyes.

She gasped!

"3RD PRIMEEEEE...." She screamed, excitement was.h.i.+ng over her whole being.

"Looking for this?!" The Prime asked, his other hand holding a dragonweed, a small smile playing on his lips

"Uh... Yes... 3rd Prime... I'm greatly honoured... " Niniola squealed after Maerius put her down

"It's okay, girl. I'm really surprised at you. You must have feelings for him, right?!" Maerius burted.

She blushed, a faint tinge of pink visible on her dark tone cheeks.Before she could reply, the bird like creature crawed up above them as it continued its circling.

"ER, Sir, She stammered jerking the dragonweed from Maerius, please help me deal with that bird creature up there. While I take care of Sunday, we don't have time to waste."

Wasting no time, she jumped to work, shredding the dragonweed and rubbing it's liquid on Sunday:s skin.It gave a refres.h.i.+ng touch to her hand, as if she were taking an ice cold bath on a very hot day, accompanied by the sensation of wanting to stay in the bath forever.

Although, it was quite different but she wanted to continue rubbing her hands against Sunday's skin. She felt the budding biceps, the broad chest, down to his abdominal muscles, smearing all with the dragonweed fluid.

"Firstly, young being, that is a Gryphoon up above us. It's a hulking eagle with a mascular lion tail instead of the regular bird feathers. And unlike it's distant relative, the Griffin, this Gryphoon, takes offense when called anything but Gryphoon.

And, it's quite rude of you asking me to destroy something that saved you, don't you think?" Maerius asked, whistling into the sky.

"Uh... I guess it is. Next time I'll call it by it's name. And erm.." She responded, absent-minded as her hands began caressing Sunday's Chest.

"Yes, please do."

"Ooh... Oooohhhhh... I definitely... I mean yes, yes of course, I..."

"Wha..." Maerius took his gaze off the Gryphoon.

"Awon omo de yii. She's drooling over his body already." Maerius thought aloud.

"What.. no, I mean... Noo..." She spun around, shocked that she had been caught.

"Ah, forget the denial. It's expected. " Maerius waved his hands in dismissal.

"You like him, and I know that. After all, he's the only one who deosnt see you as the exiled Irunmole that you are ." At that , Niniola recoiled, her eyes wavering as she rubbed her hands aainst each other, downcast.

" Why must everyone remind me of my past?" A whisper escaped her lips.

But he caught it.

"Ahhhhhh. Forget it, Maerius said with irritation, Like you said, it's all in the past. I just want to tell you something, girl. If you like Sunday, you should tell him now. You either act now or lose him. There are no second chances, Niniola. That has been the guidelines my life has based on so far."

Niniola exhaled.

How could she? After, she was quite older than Sunday, although not so much. But he looked to her as a big sister.

How would he take it if she told him that she.. she...

"By the way, Niniola, I must thank you for saving him" Maerius voice rang out. His hand rested now on her shoulders while his huge blade glittered.

"I do not consider you an exile, for you have proven yourself as a fearless Irunmole. The hierachy of things have been the reason why you did what you did.

And that too, had been the reason why , why Sunday took to that wolf alone.

I can understand all of that. That's why , I want to end it. I want him, Sunday, to embark on a mission to Earth. I just don't know if he will accept it.

I mean, he's still weaken..."

"I WILL. I will go on that Mission, To Earth." Sunday's voice shot out from below them.

They looked down, surprise cutting the edges of their mouths as he rose, painstakingly to his feet, wild determination burning through his eyes

"I will tour the Earth for whatever mission it is, 3rd Prime."

(A/N)

Hey hey, thanks for dropping by again.

I appreciate your reads and votes. Means allot to me. So far, we have reached the part where Sunday embarks on his first mission to the human world, Earth.

Now, if you note, the chapters all connect together with the First Chapter where Sunday Appears to the Bolu who's fasting -(see chapter one)-

That chapter was the start of TS initially and it continues down from there while showed Sunday seeking darker paths. But on a rethink, I wanted the readers to have some sort of emotional attachment to Sunday.

To be able to understand why he decided to trail shadows. To know what really went down in the heavens that darkened his soul.

So I went back and started writing from the time of the Wolf down to here. The end of the flashback

Yes, let's just say , REALIZATIONS, POWER OVERLOAD, MEETING TRIXIUS, SOUL BONDING are all flashbacks. But hey, I felt if I had indicated that, y'all would begin to read the flashback pa.s.sively while waiting for the main story. Whereas, the flashback plays a pivotal role in the main arc.

Did you notice that there's *Lord/Omni Cla.s.s that I mentioned?

yeah, I'm trying to develop the world building so that it takes quite some time to become a Prime.

so, i added two new cla.s.ses.

There will definitely be new races apart from Irunmole and Demons and beasts and I am counting on you to help out.

suggest New Races that we can add to the Heavens to make it quite different from the conventional Angel vs Demon story.

And oh, did I say that Bolu would become OP too? I mean, what do you expect when you...

Ahem... No more spoiler.

Have a nice day. And please vote me. It takes quite an effort to write and your votes and comments are the only way of encouraging to continue. Thank you
