Chapter 171 - Exploring the Night

Her pupils flashed and her lips quivered. She jerked her hands off the other, down to her side and then...

"Law of War: Furious Fire!" 

Her entire body exploded in flames as she suddenly dashed forward, tot he gate in a flash, her whole body exploding in a gust of flames like a rocket as she speared into the air. 

And in the next moment, her entire body was all over the gate, a flash of light sparking out at the other side of the gate.

CURRENTLY DISCLOSABLE INFORMATION

Sage!

Humans are naturally physical existences on the physical plane that is Earth. This goes as far as to mean that there is very limited knowledge about the spirit world. 

That aside, this also means that they are unable to tap into the Aspectual Energies of the Universe, Agbara, that is. 

Amongst these people, there are even a minute few who surpass these conditions. 

People with massive amounts of Agbara in their soul who besides sensing Agbara can also cultivate it, via the Aspectual Laws. 

These people are called Sages.

Her reaction was quick. Just as soon as her body lifted over the gate, she quickly crouched together, folding up both upper and lower torso till her knee caps met her still growing b.r.e.a.s.ts, right at the c.h.e.s.t. 

In then little time since se had discovered her personality, she had been tutored by someone who had mentioned to her that it was often better to bring her body together when doing acrobatics like that so that she could minimize damage to her body, especially shock impact to her joints and caps. 

It had  been useful, as now, she did not have to make do with sprained ankles whenever she was done with a flip and what not. 

Her body rocketed tot he ground, the furious heat that had gathered around her and blazed through the night air now dissipating. She moved in a parabola shape and just when she was about to get to the ground, her instincts fired up again. Now, would be the time to let go of her body and just feel the moment. She had been taught that too. 

Even as she was to protect her body by bringing together, she still had to let go just inches from the ground so that she did not just crashland like a rock to the ground. IN that case, the damage would be even on a larger scale, much more than what effort was being put to avoid. 

It had moved her some inches from the gate but it was worth it. She heaved and then stretched out again, looking up to the sky. 

Behind her was the black gate with the dusty coating on the lower side of it. the ground before the gate was concrete and paved, sloping down into the metal mesh plating which was placed to cover the gutter before it. The metal mesh did not serve only as the cover for the gutter but also as a way to connect the pavement to the road, over the road, for the benefit of those who often drove in and out of the compound. 

To her sides, the gate had the wall of the compounding extending just a bit , making it seem like it was placed in an alcove. Even though the walls on the left and right of her did not extend much but it was enough to at least, cover her from view, over at the diagonal angle to the gate. That is, from both sides of the road. 

After the extension of the walls in the form of a cube, just after it were the refuse dump. it was not a refuse dump per say but it was made of two large containers, one of which had a broken jagged hole from the underneath, just extending for some inches up tot he edge of where kissed the ground. Through the crack, was a nylon of black extending out of it.

The one which was closest to her, which was the refuse dump that had the nylon coming out of the crack was uncovered. And the moment that Aderonke looked on to the it, the rodents that had been feasting on the open refuse had immediately jumped away, seeing the way Aderonke shone, even though the light on her body was dissipating little by little. 

The cover was just lying fallow and unoccupied, on the ground and just beside it, was a refuse nylon baggage, one end of it torn by the stick that was attached to it. 

The other refuse container was black too, but it was in a much more better shape than the one which was closest to Aderonke. It had a cover, although the cover was pretty much broken but it was not that obvious. Rather, it was still effective in keeping the refuse that was in it away from the infestation of the rodents, thus keeping the space about it clean. The space about the uncovered one was not so clean because some of the refuse from the bin had been shoved down, half eaten nylons and wrappings amidst food remnants, down to the ground and the gutter by the front of it, all of which done by the rodents that had been partying until Aderonke had come by.
