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.

The Battle of Ascension - Part 9

Amri

"I just need you to stay up a bit longer," Amri replied to Yue.

Noticing the green light in Yue's eyes, she turned around, feeling as Zai rose into the sky.

"Knowing her, she's going to buy us some time," Shenmi said. "Best figure out how to stop this army from making Markus stronger."

Amri turned to Makya. "Makya, right? Do you know anything about how the Master was coordinating all these Ascendants?"

Makya shook her head. "As far as I can tell, everyone was just doing their own thing. The ones he convinced from the Tournament were supposed to be elite fighters, but nothing's been done to preserve them outside of handing out some drugged elixirs."

"The Master doesn't need to preserve them, not if their deaths make him stronger," Amri explained. "We need to disable the army without killing them, if possible."

"I think I can help with that," a voice suddenly said from behind.
