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.

Zai

"... I killed the Second Ascendant of Steel."

Zai heard the woman Rui was talking to say this as she approached. She'd felt the movement of the Third Ascendant of Lightning, and had decided to approach in case Rui had gotten herself into some situation.

"Is there a problem here?" Zai asked in Canthic as soon as she arrived.

The Third Lightning glared at her, before snapping at the guards to "Keep her moving."

They hurried to obey, shoving at the woman but, Zai noted, not putting any muscle into it. They were afraid of her.

Morlock still stood where he was, so Zai took the opportunity for some verbal sparring. "If this is how you treat those that fight for you, I wonder at the treatment your allies must suffer," she said, not even bothering to look at Morlock as she watched the woman's back.
