Ascendant: Struggle

Zai, a soldier, and her squad live a life of brutal hit-and-run operations and training the people of Aviye to resist the will of the Hegemons that divided her nation. When a beautiful defector falls into her lap, the terrible secret of how the Hegemony creates its Ascendants, powerful warriors wielding powers only a few understand, is revealed, as well as a lost path to the same power. As Zai and Amri struggle to understand the truth of the path, deadly enemies and even divisions within their own people must be overcome. Yet in the shadows of the Hegemony lurks an enemy far older and more powerful than even they can imagine. -------- I invite you to consider my other works if you are interested: https://www.webnovel.com/book/the-demon-lord-is-an-angel_28486713700592205#review I also have a Discord if you want to communicate with me directly: https://discord.gg/ksJ8dJup4d Special thanks to SapphoAndHerFriend for her support and help with the cover.

Xu

Xu was exhausted. Getting the Separatist soldiers at the airport to defect took much more out of her than she thought.

After rallying the first group, they'd essentially marched from one end of the airfield to the other, bringing everyone into the hangars.

Eventually, she'd radioed for support and had to do some convincing to get a few squads sent out to the airfield.

Now, close to midnight, she felt she had some time to rest, and her squad had nested in the hangar that had been reserved for Ambassador Sommer's craft. The bodies had been taken off for burial, and Xu took a moderate amount of satisfaction from watching Quynh and the rest of her team enjoying some of the luxuries from inside the plane. Sommer's private plane had been well stocked with alcohol, snacks, and even candies that Xu found she craved as soon as she tried them.
