Ayodeji comes out of his planet
breathing heavily and exhales through
his mouth. He's admiring the view when
he hears a voice calling "master." "Boss."
Both Akindele and Yemi called him,
waving at him. He moved closer to them.
"Have you been waiting for me?"
"No, we also arrived just now. Master, let
go to the relaxation dimension; I have
reserved some space for us." Akindele,
directing his hand towards the
dimension.
"Okay, let's do that." He follows them as
they lead the way. To Ayodeji surprise,
everyone they meet on their way either
bows their heads to show their respect or
tries to hug or buttlick Yemi and Akindele
like a celebrity.
At the dimension, every seat has already
been filled except the one Akindele
booked. "This way, master." Pointing at
the reserved seat.
As they are moving towards the seat,
Ayodeji mistakenly hears some
conversation.
"Who is that guy?"
"Why are they showing respect to him?"
"Keep your voice down if you don't want
to see the other side of their face."
All this made Ayodeji develop
unnecessary curiosity. The three of them
sit around the table. Yemi starts the
conversation, "Boss, about our plans on
ascending to..." Before he could end his
statement, Ayodeji interrupted him.
"Please pause first; there is something
on my mind that I need your unjent reply."
Tilting his head back and forth.
"Please ask; maybe we can clear your
curiosity." Yemi nodded slightly.
"The question is that, throughout our
movement till we get here, there has
been some strange atmosphere, like
seeing people bow or buttlick you both,
and when we get here, you both are the
center of attraction.
Both Yemi and Akindele suddenly freeze
for a moment. "So is that your question?"
They both place their hands on their
chests to calm themselves down.
"What does that mean?" "We thought
you were going to ask something
strange." Akindele sits famely, "About
that after you disappeared, me and Yemi
conquered and maintained a spot on the
first ring for the past 50 cosmic years;
because of this, we have gained quite a
bit of fame and recognition you just
experienced." Akindele proudly
explained.
Ayodeji held both his hands together,
placing his chin on it. "Okay, what about
Morenikeji? You both looked somehow
when I mentioned her name the last time
we met. Is there anything I need to
know?"
Both Yemi and Akindele look at each
other. They both exhale out heavily. Yemi
decided to explain, "5 cosmic days after
we returned back, when we decided to
visit sister-in-law, not to feel sad about
your disappearance, on getting to her
shop we were both shocked to see her
expression. It's like something happened
in the fourth universe. We try to
persuade her but yield no response.
Both me and Akindele try to investigate it
both due to our movement restricted to
this universe; we only have our
speculation."
Yemi took a deep breath before
continuing.
"From our little discovery, her worries
and depression are all related to the
young master, whom Ika worships as his
master. Has we all known about what
brought about your first challenge on the
arena in this fifth universe and all those
assailants who sneakily attacked us
inside the rift, so all our speculation and
little evidence pointed at this situation?"
Yemi rounds up his explanation.
Ayodeji clenching his fist for a bit of time,
then relax. "Okay, let prepare to ascend."
Standing up from his seat with anger
written on his face. "You need to relax;
there is still something we need to
discuss." Yemi, try to calm him down.
Ayodeji holds back and sits to hear them
out. "Me and Akindele have already
qualified to ascend, but you are not."
"Why not?" Ayodeji asked. "To get
qualified, you need to complete two
tasks: first, to have about 50,000 saint
coins, which will be our fees for travel
through the wormhole; second, to
acquire a spot on the first five rings,
which you have not."
"Okay, how can I register without
wasting time?" Ayodeji said eagerly.
"No need to rush; leave that to us; we
can do that using our influence. So let
me ask you which ring should we appoint
your opponent." Yemi inquired but
wanted Ayodeji to select from the
weakest ring.
"Okay, select from the first ring." Ayodeji
voiced out with determination.
Both Akindele and Yemi look at each
other and speak unison, "What, first
ring." Akindele standing up, stretching
his body towards Ayodeji, "Master, it's
not that we don't trust you or
underestimate you? Jumping four rings
and challenging the first ring. Why don't
we do it this way? We will select from the
third ring." Ayodeji looks at them
disappointedly.
"Okay, you win; we are going to settle
that, so just wait for our news." Yemi
quickly changed the intense
atmosphere. They all come out of the
dimension. As they are about to depart
separately, Ayodeji turns to them and
says, "Yemi, Akindele, even though it is
too late, thank you very much, and also, I
just came to know about each clan
bloodline." Smiling at them.
Akindele also smiled in return, "You don't
need to say that; it is our decision to
follow you, and by now you must have
known the reason why I always say that
you are the only abnormal being in the
whole chronoverse.
They both said their goodbyes and left
for their planet.
