.Very early the next day, Emi rose, and waked up the rest and they prepared and set out. Bidemi took the lead, she knew this creature better than anyone. They rode for almost half a day before reaching their destination. Some meters before them stood a dark cave.
"Are we going into it" Ogunjimi asked feeling awkward
"No, it knows we are here, this demon treasures it's cave, although no one knows what's in there"Bidemi said.
Like Owo Iku heard their conversation, it majestically walked out of the cave and snarled, as thick saliva drooled from its mouth.
"Everyone disband, Ogunjimi make sure you have a clear stand" Emi said, as he watched his team disbanded into different angles, leaving only him and the beast face to face.
"Eledumare, grant me a portion of your strength " Emi muttered and picked up his pace towards the demon, as the demon also at first slowly advanced, but gradually it picked up fast pace.
Emi joined his fists together and slammed on the beast, in retaliation, it used it's hand to push Emi to the ground, and snarled, lowering it's huge mouth, in an attempt towards Emi's face. Emi placed his elbow, between his chest and the neck of the beast, preventing it from tearing his head.
"Bidemi" Emi shouted.
An arrow came at the neck of the beast, and shattered into pieces.
SNAAARRRRRLLLLL!!! The beast looked towards the direction the arrow had come from seeing Bidemi hanging from a tree, it ran towards her. With a huge bang, it collided against the tree, pulling it down, as Bidemi lost balance.
Ogunjimi, from where he took cover, knew Bidemi was done for, but he could do something. He tied a rope to the edge of an arrow and tied the other end to his leg. He then shot the arrow to the branch where he stood, and dived towards Bidemi,
ARRGH..he caught her and swung back to the tree where he stood. The creature became more furious. Emi summoned his beast soul and
slide on his knees the force pulling him under the creature and he wasted no time in punching it from beneath. The creature became more furious, what happened next made Emi wish he didn't use his beast soul.
Right before them, this beast stood on two legs like a man, standing about 8feer tall.
"Attack" Emi shouted, and they all ran towards the beast, excepting Ogunjimi and Bidemi, who still stood on the tree.
WHACK, whack this beast swooped them with just one swing of its hand. Emi luckily drove it's sword into the beast, forcing it to its knees, he reached for the Hellstone, he was halfway pulling it out, then the beast used the last strength in it to push Emi away, it raised its hands up, and Sliccck, it came off. and it fell to its kneels.
Emi was certain he didn't do that, someone saved him, and it wasn't his team, then who was it. Emi struggled to his feet, and right in front of the dead beast was Ajanaku,.
Ajanaku bent down and pulled the hell stone, out and dipped it inside his Ankara bag.
"Brother" Ajanaku said looking at Emi.
At his sight, the other warriors, grabbed their weapons and stood at alert, no one trusted Ajanaku.
"Lay down your weapon" Emi ordered, "why are you here"
"Walk with me" Ajanaku said, stepping forward. After they were out of ear shot he continued. "Thank you for the love, you have shown my son" Ajanaku said.
"I knew it"
"Emi, my son does not deserve to grow with a father like me he deserves someone better, and you are the only one I can trust " Ajanaku said, facing Emi squarely.
"Me saving you today, is because of my son, and for this life you owe me, please take good care of my son" Ajanaku said and immediately faded.
Emi stood still, not that he was confused, but Ajanaku trusting his son to his care, even condemning himself for not being a good father.
Emi faced back and could see, Ogunjimi having a heated argument with Bidemi.
"Let's go" Emi said not having interest in what they argued about.

"I am Bidemi, follow me, I have the necessary information you will be needing to defeat Owo Iku " a lady said from the crowd.
.
.
She served Emi and his crew a bowl of soup, with mutton meat, after eating, she packed the calabash and immediately stated the main situation.
"Tell us something, what we don't know" Oguntomiwa said rubbing his mouth with his palm.
"This creature, only weakness is to pull out the hell stone on its chest" She said and continued "the more this stone glows, the more powerful it is "

"Any plan, on how to pull this stone out " Ogunjimi asked
"I was hoping, one of you has one hundred percent accuracy "
"Yes, am the best around here" Ogunjimi said, trailing his plaited hair, which he plaited in three parts.
"Let's see" Bidemi said and pulled out her bow from under the table.
"Am not competing with a lady, even, you are no match for me" Ogunjimi said, folding his hands.
"You are scared" Emi said and they all laughed loudly.
.
.
"PHEEEWWWW PHEEWWWW Bidemi effortlessly shot two arrows,at the table. The first one, spinned a calabash into the air, as the other one balanced it steadily against the wall.
"Woooooaaaahhhhhh"everyone except Ogunjimi shouted feeling impressed at the move.
"Your turn"
"What, you know am better than that, Human God, you have seen me in action, haven't you" Ogunjimi said, waving his hand towards Emi.
"I don't think so" Emi replied with a stern face. "the lady replaces you then, you won't be on the field tomorrow"
"Impossible, you want to exclude my name from list of legends" Ogunjimi shouted and withdrew his bow and grabbed two arrows.
PHEWSZAPP!! ogunjimi shot both arrows. The first one hit the wall, while the second one, pierced the first arrow, splitting it into two.
"That's an old trick, I have seen you do that like forever" Alara said.
"She hasn't seen that,have you"
"Am better than you" Bidemi said and went into her bedroom.

Mummy Shedrach, once will beat hell out of me for telling her school won't get me job.
Not until I showed her through the art, and novels that I do. And how much I pull from it.
But all the way, education still gives you an advantage over those that lack it, and much opportunity, if you will putting your brain to work. I mean critical work.

HAAIIIIII!!
"It is here" The lady said in fright, hearing the loud and horrible screams that came from the villagers
Emi looked at his team, and signalled to them using his head. The plan was to confront this demon, study it during the fight, retreat and figure out a way to bring it down.
Emi led the way, to the opening, struggling through the disorganized crowd, they made their way through, to confront this creature. In about a minute, the street was dry and totally silent.
"It's going into stealth attack" Ogunjimi said. And they immediately made a stealth formation, pairing three each, they formed a triangle. Putting their Shields forwards. They knew the demon was within, they could here it growl soft.
RAAAARRHHHHH!! The demon suddenly appeared and threw itself on their shield, as a means to lower their guard and advance attack.
HOOLLLD!! Emi shouted and they strengthened the force with which they held their shield, making sure their feet stayed rooted to the ground.
The creature growled standing some few meters from them. It's look was horrible, it stood on all four hinds, all upper part of its body, were covered with hard spikes, the hinds were like the feet of a man, right in the middle of its head, was a red glowing stone.
Ogunjimi, threw his spear at the creature, on impact, the spear broke into a thousand pieces.
"Eledumare" Emi muttered, he never imagined the spear to be shattered like that, at least he expected into just two pieces.
The creature snarled, stamping it's feet angrily on the floor, as it made huge crack on the ground.
"Everybody fall back"
The creature leaped towards them. Emi quickly channeled his beast soul into his right arm, and punched the creature hard on the face, creating a sonic boom, the force pulled the demon, hard on the wall.
It stood up, snarled at Emi, at took to it heel. Emi flexed his muscles.
"We have to find a way of getting rid of this animal, another hit with my beast soul, it will shatter my beast soul without recovery" Emi said.
One by one, people began to open their doors, windows flung open, soon there was already a huge crowd gathered around them.

dawno2008:
Good job @Devilpen pls keep it up,it get more interesting,I particularly like the plot of the story,but you made a mistake with one of the episode where you named one of the warriors as "saheed",I believed as of this era the Muslim fate as not arrived in thier mist,from the plot,this was an era when the gods lived and communicate with the people hence no need for such names

All the same nice story,always following you bro

Abasimasifikipayoum..... Thanks for this correction brother, I will find where it is and correct it, na na....
Thanks a million bro

Although this creature was not even halfway near the borders of Ayenireti, but the duty of a human god is not limited only in his town.
.
Emi had his best warriors with him, the ones he personally handpicked, each one he observe was as strong as three soldiers combined together. Altogether he had 7 warriors with him, in hunt of this monster.
Reaching the first village, it was completely razed to the ground, the stench from the dead bodies, grew stronger as they neared the village.
They all were alert as they rode their horses into the village.
"No living soul" Emi said and halted"This is curse walking among us" Emi said.
The entire village was still, even the air seemed to be eliminated.
"See, tracks" A soldier said, showing them the weird foot print on the ground.
"This is certainly not human, be careful, archers in position" Emi said, leading.
They followed the tracks for almost a day, which led them to the second village, also razed down, but there were few survivors.
.
.
They walked into the village, ignored by the people, as they tend to the injured ones among them.
"We have no food, no water, we lost it all in one day" A voice shouted. " Owo Iku(Hand of death) , should just lay it's mighty hand on us all"
"what about the human god?"
"we will all be dead before he arrives here"
Emi could here clamour and grief as they all complained bitterly. Emi and his team entered into a segmented area, where the injured were being attended to.
"What happened?" he asked a lady, that attended to the injured, applying herbs on their injuries.
"You shouldn't have come here, leave before he comes" She said, adjusting, the wrapper on her waist.
"Why"
"Owo Iku, he has been torturing us all, anyone who tries to leave dies, little by little, he is bringing us down".

They turned looking at Emi, with puzzled look on their face.
"Adeshewa, you told me he died"
"Yes, I saw him die, his head squashed, I saw him at the party"Emi said.
He noticed a bead on the boy child hand and walked to Adeshewa to have a closer look at the bead.
He studied the bead closely and knew what he saw.
"This bead belongs to Ajanaku" Emi said, holding tightly to the child's hand.
"We have to get rid of this boy" Emi shouted, his eyes flared in anger.
"Are you blind, Ajanaku Won't Leave his child here, if he doesn't trust us, you don't know what he is going through, or where he is" Adeshewa calmly replied.
"Don't hate him because of his father's mistake " She finally concluded
"What's his name" Emi asked collecting the child from Adeshewa.
"Eri(Witness), I think that will be a nice name "
.

SAVED BY A BROTHER
"Ba...dta " IRETI spoke with all keen eye on her.
"She spoke her first words" Emi said and threw her in the sky, as his wife giggled, softly not to disturb sleeping Eri.
"We are going for the hunt tomorrow, and if it's true what the rumors are, then, we might take longer than expected" Emi said, his words changing the happy atmosphere.
"It's late, you have to rest" Adeshewa said and began laying their bed.
Emi softly carried Eri in his hand, to allow Adeshewa lay the bed easily.
"I will try to get back early"
"Make sure, no soldiers goes missing, or dies horrible, you know they have family expecting their arrival" Adeshewa said and put her hands on his face, starting poorly at him.
"Yes your highness" Emi said and pulled Adeshewa with the free hand closer to him.
"You'll have to come back, before you can do it, and I won't want you to wake the babies" adeshewa said and laid on the bed.
"AHHHHH, am not impotent"
"Neither am I, love".
.
.
Adeshewa woke up early the next morning, to prepare Emi for the journey, ahead only to notice, he was gone. Her heart failed for a moment, Emi was going to face a creature rumored to have escaped from hell. A creature that has razed two villages to the ground.

IRETI cooed, as everyone drew their attention to her
"A grand god " Otun said,his mouth widely agape.
.
.
The King had a smile on his face,as Emi helped him to sit upright.
YOUR HIGHNESS they all chorused on after the other bowed, then stood upright.
"Welcome back"
"Thanks to everyone, Emi, a war ..."
"You have to see the new look of Ayenireti " Emi said, knowing what the King was about to say, he interrupted him, with his own words.
He held the King leading him outside as the Chiefs and the priest followed behind.
THE KING IS AWAKE
The words quickly spread round of ayenireti, as everyone left what they were doing and converged to the market square. What the King saw delighted him, his beloved city was already fenced round, mighty gate leading into the city, one way in one way out.
"Under Emi's leadership, I am delighted with what I am seeing".

A BROTHER'S SON
The King paused for a while, smiled and continued.
"Let's dine, tonight".
.
.
Emi made sure the other villages that were invited were those that would benefit Ayenireti, he also saw an opportunity to sign a peace treaty. In total 12 kingdoms were invited.
.
Setting of the palace commenced immediately, the hall well designed and had been expanded to more than twice the size of the fight arena, could now contain enough people. Emi made sure IRETI was well dressed, beautified with expensive beads.
The hall began to fill with people of different high status.
CLING CLING CLING.
The King gently hit a spoon on the table, drawing the attention of everyone to him.
"First, I will like to make a toast, to Emi, he has done great, during my absence, a toast to the Human God" He said and they all raised their calabash in the air and drank up.
"Second, to my daughter, Adeshewa"
"We will like to marry her to our kingdom, let's become good friends" A king said, robbing his beards slowly.
"Am sorry, the Human god has married her, and they now have a child, let's give a toast to her"
"My Cheifs, the priest and to ireti"
Emi rejected the wines that came before him, after much persuasion from his fellow warriors, he had two gourds to himself.
.
.
He shook his head, watching the arm fight of the soldiers, and as they placed their bets. Suddenly everywhere was silent and seemed like a slow motion to Emi. His ears was sure not hearing anything. Then, amidst the large crowd, he saw someone he knew. He closed his eyes and opened it again, the person was gone, he could swear with his life that he saw Ajanaku.
He felt hands shaking him hard, and suddenly everything was clear.
"Your turn, Human god, I place 10 pieces of gold, that you are going to loose" A soldier said, raising his calabash up.
"Stupid, we all know the Human god will never loose" another said and poured his wine into his mouth in one gulp.
"20 pieces, the arm fight won't reach 5seconds". The bet kept rolling up.
.
.
.
A bang came at Emi's door, he woke up with an heavy eye, he never knew when the party ended, he attended to the door, and was surprised, it was sunny outside, he had slept heavy.
"Emi, something came up, the King request your presence"
.
.
Emi walked into the palace, only Adeshewa and the King was there.
"Emi, we saw this cute baby, at the step of the palace" Adeshewa said, showing the child to Emi.
Emi stood still, with the King was his daughter, and a child with Adeshewa.
"Ask from the kingdoms that came to the party yesterday" Emi said.
"Emi, the party was 5 days ago, and we saw this child this morning"
Emi felt uncomfortable, how come he had slept so long.
"Bright eyes" Adeshewa said complimenting the child.
"We have to find a way of disposing this child" Emi said firmly.

"Are you okay? " Adeshewa said irritated at what Emi said.
"Yes, am certain, this is something more than us"
"We shall keep the child, for the sake that, you were also an orphan, and the palace took you in, here you are, the most valuable asset, ayenireti have" The King said and continued "He is your responsibility " He said and gave IRETI to Emi.


"I saw Ajanaku, during the feast" Emi said.
"Hmmmm" Adeshewa and the King chorused together
.

Emi paused for some minutes, bending slightly.
"What's the cure? "
"Your daughter".
.
.
"OPEN THE gate" a guard shouted from the watch tower on the wall.
The heavy spiked gate, rolled with pulling from great effort. Emi rode into Ayenireti and straight down to the palace.
"Get me my wife, and tell her to come with IRETI, someone should bring the King to the palace" Emi said, as he walked through the steps that led to the palace.
.
.
.
The Cheifs and Elders all gathered forming a circle round the King, Emi collected his daughter from his wife.
"Water" He said, and received a calabash, filled with water from the priest.
Emi dipped IRETI's hand into the water, and let a drop into the King's mouth. Everyone paused, expecting something really weird to happen, after five minutes they loosed hope. They all turned their back, in confusion. Then they heard a cough.
The King coughed. The boils on his body, began to fade away.
TBC

They all moved back as Emi climbed on his horse, last night wasn't the best of night for the inn thieves, the least of all injury on them, was a broken arm. Emi smiled inward, if only they knew who he really was, but he had a task ahead.

Emi saw a hut standing alone in the middle of the woods, and alighted his horse, he drew out his sword and stealthily walked towards the hut. As he got to the door, it opened by itself, revealing a dark entrance. As Emi took each steps, oil lamps on the wall lit up for themselves.
Emi felt frustrated, the entrance, didn't seem to end, he had been walking for almost thirty minutes. He paused looked back, he could see the daylight outside.
"Just a step" A voice said from nowhere in particular. He did as told and meet himself a room, skulls hanged from every corner. In the middle of the room was a scared alter.
Emi walked closer
"Why are you here? " A lady said and her hand laid on Emi's shoulder from the back.
"I was hoping you had the cure for the King's illness" Emi replied facing the lady.
Emi wondered at what he saw, this so called Spirit Seer, was a girl, who Emi figured couldn't be more than 15 year

"Sit down" She ordered Emi.
She placed her hand on Emi's head, as her eyes shone brightly and same as Emi. And they went into a trance.
ZAAAPPPPP!!!
"Remi, watchout" Remi flew in the sky dodging the huge vehicle that almost crushed him, he shot lasers from his eyes, melting through the object that came at him. He had a black emblem of an eagle on his green suit, his golden cape made him look glorious.
"Mother" Remi shouted
"Call me IRETI on field, our enemies must not know am your mother" IRETI said, as they flew in the air.
Explosions from different angles, sharp metals going to and Fro, faster than what Emi had ever seen.
ZAAAPPPPPP!!! The trance was over, the spirit seer was thrown far from Emi. She stood up and walked to Emi feeling exhausted.
"What was that? " Emi asked panting heavily.
"The future, a great war is coming, and you won't be alive to witness it.

"The things in the vision, I have never seen them"
"Neither have I, weapons that will split thousands in one touch, I have never seen that in my 390 years of existence".
TBC

But how would they know, who or what the cure was, he looked at the Priest, if there was another clue
"I will try as much as possible, to find out more"
"I know someone who could point us in the right direction"..
.

.
Emi tied his horse to a tree, that stood in front of the inn he would be lodging in, before continuing his journey the next day. He walked to the reception, noticing the caliber of people that gathered in the hall. Drunkards, in dark corners, he could see people holding themselves in pairs, commuting adultery. Well it was none of his issue, visibly the sight only brought back the guilt, the thought of him cheating on his wife, even if it wasn't deliberate.
"How much is the room, for a night?" Emi asked the receptionist.
"10 copper coins, for the smallest, with no bed, 15 copper coins, with pole beds and 25 copper coins for the executive" The receptionist said listing out the offers.
Emi dipped his hand into his money bag, and handed over a gold coins over to the man. The man was surprised at the sight of pure gold.
"Do you need, additional fun, I could arrange a girl for you" He said trying to show gratitude
Emi gave a cold stare at the man, the look said it all.
"Follow me" He said leading Emi.

Emi laid on the bed, which had been improvised to feel so soft, and comfortable to lay on.
He was going to meet a strange woman, for a solution that was in their kingdom. He thought within himself, even the gods have seemed to cease with their constant communication with him.
.
.Emi opened his eye, he could hear footsteps approaching his room, he knew immediately they had seen him give the receptionist a gold coin, and they had come to loot him of every dime he had.
"Why do you have to be in pains"

"You are behaving in a manner I don't like, these days Emi" Adeshewa said while bathing IRETI
"Nothing is wrong" Emi sighed, guilt hunted him knowing he laid with another woman.
"I know you laid with a woman, I am not angry" Adeshewa said as she poured water on IRETI.
Emi sat down where he was speechless, what he thought was a secret, no man would know.
"I am truly sorry, about it" Emi said, looking at the ground, he felt like it should swallow him up.
"Hope you will be more frequent at home, and not let guilt hunt you down" Adeshewa asked, she had missed Emi, although he was present but, emotions were far behind.
Emi smiled, if only he knew she would reason like this, he would have opened up earlier.
"Hope you know your daughter, has took her first step in walking"
How would he know, he was busy hiding his guilt, while the changes he ought to have noticed were skipping him already.
"Ahhhhhhhh, isn't it too early for her?" Emi asked
"For a Grand god, NO" Adeshewa replied and giggled softly.
.
.
Gradually the wall built around ayenireti was beginning to become complete, the wall stood about the height of three fully grown iroko tree, the width could contain two huts. The progress pleased Emi greatly, if he could sign treaty with other kingdoms and get them to do their works, Ayenireti could greatly improve.
.
.
Emi stood beside by the King, who still was unconscious. The situation now began getting worse, pores now began forming from the kings body.
"We have to find a solution" Emi said to the chef priest.
"The cure is in this kingdom, but I don't know where".
Emi felt relieved, for the fact that the cure was within their reach.
TBC

Emi manage to open his eyes, only to find himself stark naked, his sword laid on the ground, his beads were neatly placed on a small stool, he smelled horrible.
"You are awake" A lady said.
He turned his head towards the direction of the voice, seeing that the lady was also naked, Emi knew what happened.
"You took advantage of me" He shouted and rose in Fury from the bed, his eyes shot red liquid coal.
She jumped to her feet, in fright, using one hand to cuddle her breast, ashamed she placed the other on her pubic region.
"You asked me to lay with you" She said sobbing.
Emi anger died down and he placed his hand on her chin.
"Get out" He said calmly.

Months have passed, Adeshewa had already began to notice Emi now distanced himself from her, he never cuddled her as he did, even now, he prefers to sleep in the palace, and give excuse about attending to villagers query, and monitoring the work of the wall.


Adeshewa walked into the sparing ground and walked closer to where they trained.
"Princess" They all said and bowed suspending their training.
"Akogun, please let me have a word with you" She said and walked a reasonable distance.
"What happened to Emi, when you went to Ilu Nla" She asked
"Nothing"
"Did he lay with anyone"
Akogun stood rigid and looked sideways, trying to avoid eye contact with her.
"Just like I thought" She said and angrily walked out of the sparing ground.

Did the gods abandon you, there is still redemption, if you are willing to change, I need my brother back" Emi said placing his hand on Ajanaku's chest.
Ajanaku for a moment wished he never did the stupid things he did, but then pride won't let him be.
Ajanaku removed Emi's hand from his chest, and with swift reflex, he jammed Emi towards a pillar.
CRAAACKKK!!! The pillar began to scramble, as everyone took to their heels, running for their dear lives.
Emi wasting no time, shot his beast soul at Ajanaku, who dodged it, a part of the pillar crumbled down, Ajanaku wasted no time in giving a heavy punch against the crumbling part of the pillar, and it advanced towards Emi.
Emi quickly withdrew his sword and slashed the huge block into pieces, the dust from it gave Ajanaku another added advantage as, he did a backdrop in mid air, and his leg hit against Emi's head, slamming him to the ground.
"Ahh nice move" Emi said and staggered to his feet. Ajanaku threw a punch at Emi's face, he blocked it and pulled Ajanaku's hand towards him and gave a heavy nod on Ajanaku's chest. Still holding Ajanaku's hand tightly, he spinned him raised Ajanaku on his shoulder, with great force, he smacked him to the ground.
"Huuuhhhh" Ajanaku groaned, as blood, oozed from his mouth.
Emi grabbed his sword from the ground, and raised it up, preparing to stab Ajanaku.
AHHHHHHHH!!! Emi screamed and stopped the sword immediately it made impact with Ajanaku's chest.
"Do it, please kill me" Ajanaku said, tears dropping from his eyes.
"No, no" Emi muttered and threw the sword away.
"I will never forgive you for this" Ajanaku said, holding Emi's leg tightly.
"You caused this mess" Emi shouted sobbing.
Ajanaku pushed Emi with great force, away from a crumbling pillar.
WHIIMMMEEE!! The pillar crashed on Ajanaku, covering him up totally.
"No no" Emi mumbled, lifting stones after the other. After minutes of lifting blocks and throwing it away. He found Ajanaku's body,his head squashed against the floor, as he bathed in his own pool of blood.
"Noooooooooooooo" Emi shouted in agony. His heart was greatly troubled.
.
.
.
A heavy feast followed the next day, everyone rejoicing, even the happiness within, made the King felt better, forgetting about his missing arm.
Emi not in the same mood as others, drank himself to stupor, thinking about the good times he and Ajanaku had together. Gourd after gourd, palmwine after palmwine, he drowned himself.
"Here" Ayo said handing over another gourd of palmwine to Emi. "We shall keep to the end of our bargain, after the celebration, our workers will get the necessary and being work on the wall"
Emi only looked silly at him and only nodded in reply
"and I will not forget about you breaking my arm" He said. "Ladies, over here, keep the Human god company make him feel good" He said and left Emi to the two girls that sat next to him.
"Go aw....w..ay" He said stammering, "My wife waits for me at home" He said not in his right sense.

TBC

Emi gathered his army, early the next morning and set out on their horses, on getting to Ilu nla, they entered as strangers, covering their heads with rags. Emi and five others went in.
"The King and his son are to be executed today" Emi heard someone whispering.
He nodded at those that followed him, as they walked towards the palace.
HUGHh!! They made their way past the security guards.
Ajanaku stood in center of the market square, expecting his guards to bring the King and his son, so he could pass judgement and create fear into the villagers heart. After minutes of waiting, he decided to give a fearful speech.
"Let this serve as an example, I am now the one that rule this land"
YOUR DOOM IS near!!!! Ajanaku heard a voice spoke in his head, he paused and looked around
"Who said that? "
Everyone looked at each other, clueless about what Ajanaku was asking about.
"Check what is making them take so long" He ordered one of his guard, who immediately took off.
.
.
Emi pressed the padlock, and threw the dust to the ground. The King rose to his feet, he summoned the little strength within him.
"Ayo, the Human God"
"I told you, he will never come, the bastard broke my arm"
"We don't have much time" Emi said.
Ayo raised his head up, that voice sounds familiar, for some unknown reason, hope lingered in him.
"You came" Ayo said, in a happy tone.
"Follow, Ogunjimi" Emi said and pointed to the warrior that followed him, while the others stood guard.
.
.
Ajanaku began to feel impatient, he never thought, an ambush would occur, he angrily walked out of the market square and headed towardsthe palace, as the villagers followed behind him.
.
Inside the palace, Ajanaku entered angrily, and froze seeing a familiar figure sitting on his throne.
"Emi"
"The Human god came" a woman whispered softly, gradually the whisper began to get louder.
"Shut up" Ajanaku shouted, his beast soul, roaring loudly.
"Long time, brother" Emi said descending the throne, as his warriors followed behind. "Kill them" Ajanaku ordered, after some seconds he saw none of his warriors advance to attack.

"Seems we took them out" Emi said and moved closer.
"Kill the bastard" the villagers shouted, their noise, echoing through every part of the palace.

...........
Emi angrily threw his sword on the ground, furious at what Ayo said, pacing around his room, his mind was not thinking right. His attention was drawn to his daughter, that yawned, cooing and staring at him.
"Little one, I know you have lot to say, just wait for the right time" He smiled and lifted her in his hand.
He went to the backyard, there he met Adeshewa, preparing firewood. He stood still admiring her, she never did the normal Princess routine, she never wanted to live in the palace, why does she prefer the regular life.
"Let me help you with that" Emi said walking closer.
"I heard what happened at the sparing ground " She said still paying attention To what she did
"Hmm"
"Am not condemning you, I want you to realise, this goes a better way, you can get Ajanaku unaware, if he sees Ayo return, he will assume, you can't defend them, or you are still weak" She said and blew at the smoke that rosed from the firewood.
Emi stood surprised, he smiled within. Ajanaku would be unaware of an attack, which will get him off guard.
"What would I have been without you" Emi said holding firm to his daughter.
"We will ride first thing at dawn" Emi said and continued "Why don't you get the maid to do this? "
"Nobody should take care of my property for me, I am a very jealous woman" She said.
.

Ayo leaned on his horse, as he entered into Ilu Nla, everyone stood in tears, they expected to see battalions with him, they had imagined the Human god driving out Ajanaku. But what they saw was the opposite.

Ayo was pulled roughly to the ground, he groaned, holding tight to his broken arm, he knelt down before Ajanaku who sat on his father's throne.
"Tell me, why didn't the Human god come with you" Ajanaku asked scornfully.
"I suppose all of Ayenireti are bunch of cowards" Ayo replied "Where is my father? "
"Having a nice time in the dungeon, take him out of my sight"

"If he does not attempt to kill me first"
Emi entered into the sparing ground, and grabbed a sword, from the ranch.
"Get me the Prince "
Minutes later the Prince entered into the sparing ground, and walked towards Emi.
"Grab a sword" He said, pointing his sword at him.
"Why"
Emi groaned, what kind of Prince is this, the few ones Emi had come across, could at least go into defense position.
"I said pick a sword " Emi shouted, his loud shout, now drew the attention of the other warriors.
Ayo took a sword, threw it in the air and caught it, held it with two hands and ran forward, screaming. Emi hit his sword against, Ayo sword, the force, pulled Ayo to the ground, the sword fell from his hand, Emi pointed his sword at Ayo's neck.
"Again"
"No, am not doing it again, all we need is your help, if you can't let me know, or just admit you are scared of Ajanaku"
Emi really got angry into the bones, and held Ayo's shoulder, CRAAACK!!,he broke his arm.
AHHHHHHHH!!! Ayo shouted, tears flowing from his eyes uncontrollably
"Bastard" he caused Emi
"You lack manner of speech" Emi said and continued
"Is that how all your royalty treat common people? "Emi asked still annoyed.
"Escort him out of the village"
TBC

Emi patiently waited till Ayo finished eating, before he began bothering him with questions.
"You said you are from Ilu Nla (The big city), how come you have a terror in a city like that"
"It's our common enemy, ajanaku" Ayo said and drank a cup of water.
Emi gazed at Ayo puzzled.
"What do you want from us? " Emi asked angrily. Not that he was angry at Ayo, but him saying a common enemy.
"Help us drive him out deliver us from him" Ayo said in a pleading tone.
"Follow me to the palace"
.

"We can help them if only they will agree to work for us" An elder said
"You want to indirectly make us your slaves" Ayo said, trying to pinpoint matters.

"Then we can't help you"
"If you go through this course, many will die and it will make you no different from him, please Ayenireti is our only hope"

"Your village has good woods, and good workman craft, let's agree to a term, your people shall help us build wall round our village, thats the only way" Emi said
"That can be arranged" Ayo said, "When do we ride"

"calm down, we still have to come up with a plan, Ajanaku is not someone you can catch unaware"




Ajanaku growled his veins like they would pop out of his body, if it got louder.
AHHHHH!! he screamed, the only one that survived had gave him news of what happened.
"You should have died with them, than come back to give me bad news," He said and drawed out the soul from the soldiers body, using it to charge his beast soul.
"We ride first thing tomorrow morning"
Ajanaku was grieved in his soul, if truly the way his soldiers were killed was true, then Emi has gained the spirit of the Human god, same as him, but worse for him, he couldn't use any power for long, as it would tear his body apart.
For the first time he was scared, but he had to show this people that no one dares defill him.
.


The Chief priest summoned Emi into his sacred chamber, red clothes placed on almost every part, a calabash hanging in mid air, in center of the room, a skull hanged from the roof.
"I have called you here to warn you" the priest said calmly. Why did he have to bring him to his power room, Emi thought.
"Okay"
"Tomorrow when you face Ajanaku, you must not kill him, no matter what happens"

TBC

Ajanaku in the village where he dwelled, had terrorized every living soul, he now openly collect from anyone, killed anyone who went against his order, even the King could not raise a finger in his own land.
Ajanaku barged into the palace and immediately silence fell on everyone. He walked arrogantly with his gang behind him.
"I here this meeting is delibrated on banning me from this town" He said and raised the King from the throne and sat on it.
"You are a stranger here, go back to Ayenireti if you are all powerful, leave ilu nla alone" the King spoke angrily.
Ajanaku without hesitation drew out his sword and WHACCCCKKK the King right hand fell off. No living soul among the Cheifs could make a sound, as they all stared to the ground, ignoring the King who rolled and wailed in pain on the ground.
"Anyone else" One of Ajanaku minions shouted, revealing his thick brown teeth.

"Now to business of today, I have come to collect my share from this month's tax" Ajanaku said, chuckling softly.

"Where is the prince" Ajanaku shouted, everyone in the palace was to pay him homage whenever he was around.
"He is out of the village" an elder spoke, to prevent another casualty.
"Where has he gone? "
"Ayenireti"
At this Ajanaku rose in rage his eyes turned red. In Fury, he beheaded the elder that responded to him.
"Bring him back here, dead or alive" Ajanaku said and stormed out of the palace.

Emi stood beside the King, places his hands on his forehead, there was no improvement, like the King was locked in his own body. Adeshewa only weepe

A horse rose furiously raising dust into the air, distance away, rode five other horses in pursuit of the First one.
HIYAAA the young boy that rode the horse shouted, kicking on the horse to run faster. The first spear, passed near his neck, luckily for him, it left just a scratch on him, the second one flew past him again, seeing the woods ahead, he was almost into ayenireti, he urged his horse further. All of a sudden the horse tumbled, throwing him to the ground, all hope was lost, as Ajanaku's bastard caught up to him.
"Ahhhhhhhh, get the boy " The leader said as they rounded him.
Huuh!!! The leader fell from his horse, lifelessly on the ground, his head was like it was drilled from the back to the front.
"who is that? " They shouted, in fright.
Another soldier was split into half, blood oozing from both half, springing into the air
A loud growl advanced from the woods like something horrible was coming, the soldiers felt strange within fear had dwelled in them.
One neck was snapped, without seeing who did it, another neck was also snapped, down to one.
"Go back and tell your boss, what you have seen" The horrible voice shouted as the last one bolted his horse out of sight.
The boy felt a hand raising him up.
"What's your name and why are you here" Emi asked trying to make the boy feel comfortable
"Ayo, I seek the Human god"

COMMON ENEMY
A soldier ran into Emi's compound, very early in the morning and banged loudly on the door. Emi was frustrated, at the first bang he refused to rise from bed, he only cuddled Adeshewa a little tighter.
"My Lord, your presence is needed" The soldier shouted and banged the door again.
"Duty calls, and I have to go see how father's health is improving" Adeshewa said placing her palms on Emi's face
Since Emi has taken the position of king, he concluded it was a burden greater than being a warrior Lord. He sat down on a stool in the palace, and a guard stepped forward, handing over a letter to him.

"So other Kingdom now wishes to join alliance with us" Emi said after reading the letter. " We will join alliances, if they are willing to work for us"
This saying pleased the elders so well, they began seeing Emi as a more better leader than Iretiade, their King.
The King laid lifeless, on the bed he was laid, a boiling calabash place at a corner of the room, different king of strange drawings on the walls. Adeshewa carefully placed a cold towel on his body to reduce the temperature.
"Ajanaku, stop, stop.. O.. op..... Thi....s. madness" The King murmured shaking roughly on the bed, like as though he would be killed and was struggling for survival. After a while the Chief priest ran in, said some incantation and the King body calmed.
"Why his he shouting ajanaku" Adeshewa asked the priest.
"That is the King's worst fear, he knows Ajanaku will surely return"
Adeshewa heaved loudly and continued
"We haven't heard from him in years "
"It's like a tiger, planning his next move, he shall return " The priest said and continued his check on the King.

LONG LIVE THE KING

Iretiola blocked Emi before he could open the door that lead to his compound.
"What do you want?, the contest is tomorrow" Emi said, this man was really getting on his nerves, right at that moment, Emi wished he could punch him really hard with his beast soul.
"I told you, the King is a murderer, and you a warrior god still let him sit on that throne"
"First" Emi walked head to head with Iretiola "I am no longer a warrior god, and second" he paused "I am a human god"
"and third, we don't give a damn about other people's past, only the future we hope to be better"
Iretiola was visibly shocked, it was time for his next line of action, he thought within himself
"If you won't reason, others will"....
Little did he know that what he called a plan was no longer effective as he thought it would. But for someone who was so blood thirsty for power, he failed to see it.
The moment for the fight arrived quickly, everyone already arrived at the arena, it contained the whole of the city and still spaces for about a thousand more. The city had really prospered during this little time after the invasion on it.

Iretiola was the first to walk into the arena, he wielded two swords in his hands, he was shirtless, with short khaki that he wore, his growl was deadly.
"People of Ayenireti" he shouted as the murmuring died down. "I have brought new hope, the one you call a king, Is just an imposter" He said.
On the part where the elders and Chirfs sat, they only looked at one another and smiled from the corner of their lips, relaxing their back to listen to Iretiola's terrible speech.
"Hmmm" Emi sighed from where he stood, with his palm wine gourd with him. He sipped slowly.
"Your king is a murderer, a beast who murdered his father" Iretiola said, as people began to murmur in surprise.
"I remember clearly that man, made us work to our bones, he collected from us what we don't have, what wrong with Iretiade liberating us from his father, even in such way" an aged man responded
YESSSSS!! the aged ones who witnessed such terrible reign shouted in support of the man that spoke.
Iretiola stood speechless, the unity in this city was BEYOUND what he imagined
"Get on with the fight and go back to your hole where you crawled out from" another man shouted and threw a tomato at him.

The King advanced towards the arena, a spear and a shield in his hand, his face was guarded with a helmet, he was also without shirt, and wore a light red short.

"Disgrace is the mother of all shame" The King said and with a swift movement threw his spear at Iretiola. He managed to dodge it, but it left a horrible wound on his chest.

The cheer from the crowd, weakened the spirit of Iretiola.
"Leave this city and never return" The King said, removed his helmet and headed out of the arena.
Iretiola grabbed his sword and rushed towards the King, the King unaware of this continued to head out of the arena. Emi saw this and threw the wine gourd and summoned his beast soul, he made it fast as possible, but it was too late. Iretiola slashed the King on the back, immediately, the King went down.
NOOO! Adeshewa screamed from where she sat, standing up to her feet.
The beast soul threw Iretiade into the air, swayed him and sent him to the ground. Emi quickly carried the King and ran towards the house of the chief priest.
The whole of ayenireti, hurriedly made their way after Emi, forgetting about Iretiade who managed to struggle to his feet. Now the best thing was to leave this town, he would still come back to get this throne, only that his plan won't be watered the next time.

After three days, there was still no improvement in the King's health, the sword of Iretiade was deduced to have been laced with an enchanted poison, although the priest did all he could do, there was still no improvement.
The Chief priest stepped out from the palace, looking at the sad faces that threw questions at him.
"The King in his present situation, has asked me to make Emi the King till he recovers, Emi would be our acting King, till the kings recovers"

"LONG LIVE THE King" the priest said as the people took it up and shouted repeatedly.
Emi felt troubled within himself, the King should be dead before they could chant long live the King on him, he threw a questioning look at the priest who willingly avoided eye contact.

Seat001 has been occupied, others should not disturb me o

Seat number 004 has been booked

Emi entered into his hut, and settled down to eat, the nice aroma from the vegetable soup almost made it impossible for him to wash his hand, as he began to eat greedily.
AUUHHAAAH he sighed using the palm of his hand to wipe the sweat the were dripping from his face. Adeshewa only stared surprised, she has never seen him that way, she giggled softly, drawing Emi's attention.
'Aren't you eating" He asked noticing he had being the only one eating.
"You feel hungry than normal, don't worry I will get another soup from the pot for myself" She smiled and kissed him light on the forehead.
Right in the palace, Iretiola was having a very heated conversation with the King.
"Renounce your kingship now, or I will let every living soul in ayenireti know what you did" Iretiola threatened, his face was fuming with anger.
"Let me ask you, why did you decide to return to Ayenireti after these years"
Though that question was rhetorical, Iretiola knew anyone who ruled Ayenireti, was like having the other Kingdom beneath their feet. He angrily walked towards the King.
"I am the rightful heir"
"Let me remind you, your father willingly abandoned the throne for the younger, and the gods chose me to rule, of which you are a living witness" The King said pointing his horsetail at Iretiola.

"You know our tradition, if a brother won't step down willingly, we have to contest it's duel, the winner becomes king" Iretiola said.

"You wish to defill the order of the gods, the duel with whom gods have rightfully choosen"
"Even the gods make mistakes" Iretiola said, "I challenge you tomorrow" He said and bolted out of the palace.

The King summoned the previous elder and Cheifs, Emi and his wife, and narrated what happened about and hour ago between him and his brother.
"We cannot let a monster rule us, I mean the devil we have known is better than the angel we haven't seen" An elder said as the other cheered in support.
"now that he has used the law, right to a duel, we have no choice than to comply" Another said again.
"If truly the gods chose you, my lord contesting with him shouldn't be a problem, since the gods will always support who they chose"
The King sighed and ordered, ink and a scroll should be brought to him, immediately he inked down on the scroll.
"I have accepted his challenge, Adeshewa tell the town crier to announce to everyone"

LONG LIVE THE KING

Emi got to his hut, only to see Iretiola with his child, playing with her, throwing and catching her. He walked closer, opened the wooden gate of his compound, Iretiola smiled on seeing Emi.
"She is a very strong child, I couldn't easily get rid of my hand from her grip " He said shaking IRETI's little body easily
"Where's Adeshewa?" Emi asked and stretched his hand to receive his daughter from him.
"Haaa" Iretiola sighed, feeling relieved, as Emi received his child. It was like he had lifted three heavy water calabash at the same time.
"She is in the kitchen" he replied and sat on the long bench that was near the wall of the hut.
"Do what do I owe this visit" Emi asked.
"I need to tell you something and I need your help"
Emi sensed a foul play already, he knew his visit was not about something good.
Iretiola smiled and placed his hand on his right shoulder.
"I know of your past failure, to protect your people" He said, carefully
"News travel so fast" Emi said

"I can help you unlock all levels of your Spirit soul in less than 3 weeks"
Emi stood still for a while and place IRETI on his legs, this offer was tempting, in three weeks he could become a grand god, and no one he cared about could die because of his weakness.
think about your wife, your child........
"What is in for you?" Emi asked.
"I want the throne"
What Ayenireti failed to know was that their village was rising very fast in popularity and in wealth and strength. What kind of people set themselves free from a god,not just any god, evil gods for that, and the killer of it all, they were supported by the grand gods.
All other King's trying to invade them now threw that thought far from them.

"Where were you when ayenireti was lost? "Emi asked he was about saying another word, when Adeshewa came out of the hut.
"My heart, welcome, hope you are having a nice time with our visitor? "She asked smiling.
"Yes, and he is about to leave, I have persuaded him to stay, seems he has a lot at hand to catch up on" Emi said and handed IRETI to Adeshewa.
She went back in to attend to what she was doing.
"If you won't comply willingly, let me let you know first that your beloved king is a murderer" Ajagunmasa Iretiola said and took his leave.

Sorry the update came so late, we have electricity issue at my lodge.
Meanwhile the King has also seek your advice.

Early the next morning the King summoned Emi and all the elders but Cheifs and non chiefs into the palace. The only way to win a war that comes like a killer without a sword is with good words.
He cleared his throat and without much hesitation began.
After he had narrated all that happened. Silence fell on everyone, he had freed them truly, and he was specially Choosen by the gods to rule, and no one has ever regretted living during his time. But an invader who is a son of the soil cannot be banned without any real reason.

A case like this, needed critical reasoning to solve. IRETI led out a ear irritating noise that forced Adeshewa out of the meeting.
"My Lord I suggest we kill him and throw his body" an elder said
AHHHHHHHH
Everyone exclaimed giving a dead stare at the elder that talked.
"My lord, for now we cant deduce any solution, let's wait and see his next line of action, probably it will give us an edge" Emi finally spoke
"hmm, the boy has reasoned well" One of the chief said and the others supported and immediately the meeting was disbanded.

.
.They all settle down to dinner, as food kept coming, the servants didn't fail in their duty of supplying before they ran out.
"Hmmmmmm, uncle I really missed eating with you" Iretiola said

The King only grinned and stared cold at Iretiola.
"Adeshewa, you might not remember Iretiola his father really sacrificed a lot for our town" the King said slowly.
Iretiola stared into Adeshewa's eyes,and smiled lovely at her.
"It's really being a long time, even I could hardly recognise her"
"And here is Emi, the Human God" The king continued his introduction, patting Emi lightly on the shoulder.
"Ahhhhhhhh, I have heard a lot about him, you really place an impression on people"

"He is also Adeshewa's husband" The King said.
"Hmm, I feel the love, beware of traitors"

Emi excused himself followed by Adeshewa, the heat of the conversation was becoming unbearable for them.
"This throne does not belong to you" Iretiola said,sitting opposite the King, both could clearly stare deadly at each other.
"Then who? "
...
40Years Ago
The mantle of kingship fell solely on the family of Ajagunmasa, history has it, they had taken the brave step of leading a revolt during their time in slavery, so as a reward for bavery, they became leaders, and started a new life. Down the line many generations had come and go, now it was the era of Iretiade, the father of King Iretilana (Present King).

Iretiade ruled the land with an iron fist, he made them work to the bone. The one that took after him was Iretiola(Son of Iretiade's brother) he always like the fierce way, trampled on the lower class, times were really hard for Ayenireti. Then something tragic happened. Iretilana put an end to his father's reign. He stabbed the King in his sleep, nobody knew how it happened. Only Iretiola was a living witness, but he said nothing, it was not his father, He thought the King in line was him, then the gods chooses a murderer, this event forced him to leave the town and swore to come back when he knows the case would have died down. Now he came to open fresh wounds.




"You called me Uncle, which am not, now tell me, why you are here" The King asked, after reaching for a cup of wine.
"Relax brother, I will be gone soon, are you scared your secret will be exposed"
Iretiola smiled at him and said "Of course, I am here to tell everyone what happend that night" He said and left the table.
The King felt heavy at heart, killing his father was the only option he thought he had, the man tortured everyone, even his mother was not left out, practically he set them free, now his past is hunting him.

Into ayenireti came a caravan, the decoration on the it told whoever was in it was from a wealthy family, it headed straight to the palace, two palace guards intersected it before it got nearer to the palace.
"Whose escort are you" a guard asked holding firm to his sword.
"Tell your King, Ajagunmasa,returns" one of the three escorts that followed the caravan said.
The guards signaled to themselves,as the one who questioned ran into the palace.
"My Lord, someone request your presence" He said kneeling down.
"Who? " the King asked irritated, someone would ruin the blissful union he was having with his family.
"Ajagunmasa"
The King suddenly froze where he sat, his body became pale, at the hearing of that name.
Everyone noticed the King reaction. He quickly got up and made his way, adjusting the crown his head,as the rest followed.
He arrived outside, Emi stood guard, drawing Adeshewa closer to him. For a moment everyone was still. The caravan door opened as a young man alighted, he dressed in a very matching attire, he probably was very wealthy, only very few could afford a caravan, and guards to follow, his face was radiant as he smiled at the King moving closer.
"Iretiola" The king said feeling stunned.
Iretiola walked gracefully and hugged him tightly.
"Traitor" He said to the King whispering to his ears,but the radiant on the face were opposite of their words.
"What are you doing here? "The King said and smiled.
"Your daughter is beautiful and even with a baby" Iretiola said and released his tight hug on the King smiling happily.
"Let's go in, it being very long, am happy to see you, you've grown oo" The king said and lead the way.
Emi exchanged a quick glance at Adeshewa, his spirit was really against this strange visitor.
