Chapter 199 - The Campers II

"Sorry! I don't make jokes with hags!" Tayo coldly replied and moved forward. 

"What?" Ibiyemi's jaws almost dropped to the ground. 

But Tayo was not entirely done with her. He still had something more for her.

"You are annoying. Hags are always annoying. It's your birthright!" He reasoned.

And Ibiyemi almost fainted, feeling the heavy stings of the words all at once.

"You know, you really need to learn some manners. You are rude." Ibiyemi said.

"Obviously, you know that. Don't you have a boyfriend? Go disturb o something Just get off my case." Tayo said and then turned around to her. 

He waved a finger at her, as if to tell her to get away from him and then began to walk forward. 

the very action irked up Ibiyemi to the core. She wanted to walk right up to him and give him some ol' bashing in the head, or anything for the way he talked to her, mannerless. He simply did not have a way of relating with people. 

And to be honest, she would have pretty much preferred to be anyway else than to be here with him. 

But then again as she thought about it, she knew she could not just waltz out of there. Not if she did not want to get herself in some trouble of any kind. 

As a member of the disciplinary Committee, she doubted if her father could have all the power to stop her from whatever she was going to do to her, based on justice. Besides, there was the factor of which her father was barely holding on to the seat of the Blue Moon Mercenary Alliance House. 

Having him look out for her would only make the matters worse now. Even though she knew that her father would undoubtedly be on the lookout for her. 

However, there was the matter of Afolabi too. If her dad was on the lookout of ro her, then she would already know that the creepy Afolabi who was the brother of her would want to take that opportunity to make the strike and then offset the father. That was not what she had been here for. 

If that happened, she did not know what she would do then because all of the training had just been to be better than Afolabi could ever be and then best him so that the seat of her father could be protected.

Also now that she thought about it, she doubted that her brother would not be looking out for her. And that blasted guy who was with her too. 

She could not just leave because she was not sure what plans they would ahve laid down for her. So, if at all she was going to leave, she needed to make sure that she had learnt quite a lot and that she was ready for just anything the lot may have to throw at them.

She had to be as strong as she could be, knowing that Elisa would definietely be ont eh look out for. 

Besides again, she did not want to lave Tayo because doing that would mean that she was leaving her own friend. The one female to which she had found resonance with, which was Niniola. 

Their first meeting had been when they had both goals aligned, tat is, to save the person of Sunday.  Then, she had gotten the order to end Niniola and secure the bounty. But she had been hesitant about it because she did not see the reason why. 

She had her own fair share of things that had been unsavory, especially since the mission with the disciplinary bounty hunters then. She did have her own gains with then, after all, she had being able to get her own Eye in the battle where she had been pushed to her limits. But like Niniola had said to her, there was really no difference between them. 

And that was the real truth of the matter. 

She did not have anyone, besides Niniola who could understand her that much. Tayo was a no go area. That kid was a no brainer. 

So, she had to still stick with him because of the sake of Niniola. Niniola was in a bad shape, ever since since the wolf had brought her back from the first Heaven. She owed it to her, being that she had been the one who could understand her and also had seen to her further growth with them, to still stay around. 

At least, until she could get better now. Until then, she could not get it in herself to leave her for now. She owed her that much. 

And also for the sake of Sunday too. 

Niniola was the only one who had being with Sunday lastly. If there were ever going to get in touch with him, Niniola would be the best one who would know about that.

And for the sake of these, she was still willing to stake it up with Tayo. But then again, she could not help but wish she could actually land a hit on Tayo. Beat him up for the stupid things that he often said. 

At least, then, she would be able to get a bit of the anger off her c.h.e.s.t. 

She exhaled now and then stomped her feet on the ground. "You know what, Tayo. I really think i could beat some sense into you. "

Tayo paused on ehating those words. His body shuddered now as a soft laghter erupted from him. And after that, he looked back without having to turn completely to face her, gripping the hilt of his blade once more.

"What, you think because you ahve some eye, you would then become invincible and then ahve the guts to challenge me to fight?" 

SHNNNK! 

He smoothly pulled his sword out of the sheath and turned around then, raising the sword to her face with his right hand. "You do realise what you are doing, do you? Youa re not just trying to get me beaten for calling you a hag, you are asking to die... To die by sword!" He said, his face darkened. 

Ibiyemi swallowed as she saw the blade pointing at him. There it was, always happening again. When you confronted him on things, he always took it to the extreme. 

Either he was outrightly cold this time or he was tremendously hot the next time. There was no stable ground with Tayo. She wondered just how twisted his growing up could have been. Not that she was an a.d.u.l.t herself, though.

But this time, Ibiyemi had decided she had had enough of his bossy attitude. She frowned and then smiled at him, having a maniac expression pasted on her face. 

She threw a deep breath, reaching inwards, to the depths  of her soul as she attempted to pull out all the Agbara that she had within her. 

in this one moth that she had been here with him, she had one thing on her mind. And that was just how she could get as strong as possible. And that she had been diligently after, in the course of the month. And now, she had received ripe dividends. Dividends that she was not afraid to use now. 

Tayo sighed now, looking at her as she readied herself. He had to give it to her, Ibiymei had come upon some extraordinary growth in  strength. He had tried to help her when he could but then again, he did not always like to be disturbed. Yet, she had gone out of her way, trying her own best to see how she could push her strength levels up.

She had the heart of a warrior, he prasied her. But then again, vermin like her, needed to know her place. 

And her place, her place was below him. 

How dare she try to challenge him to a fight? And worse, she was not only drawing on the energy of her soul, she was also drawing on the energy of the eye. 

It was going to be quite a burden to fend off the attacks from both angles. Not that he was bothered, she still had a long way to learn. 

And in the meantime, he could make do with showing her her place that was below his feet. And he was ready to do that as fast as possible. 

ibiyemi smiled now, looking at him. She had connected with the energy reserves in her soul and the auxiliary reserve in her. It might be a little overkill but she had to remind herself that she was going against the cold blooded Irunmole with the name Tayo. 

If she was ever going to land a hit, she needed to do that as critically afast as she could
