"Ah ah... it is like you want to watch these few green grasses taste the sweetness of your blood while the dried leaves sip the remnants which escape the mouths of the few green grasses ehn!" Ade said with his countenance fixed seriously at his hairy chest.
The king added to his boldness as he said: "pull the trigger you bastard, son of no man. I own you, the land and every other thing on this land. I even own your properties including the big stick down your lap." Ajiun was yet quivering at the King's back and was still bare.
"Oh, today and now everything you own you shall own no more. I am the death to take your life. Look at me very well and remember my face very correctly and let the memory scorch your soul for all eternity beneath the earth. O... have you forgotten? I am not a bastard on this land. I am Ade the first son of Jogunomi... Jogunomi... Jogunomi...oooooo, man of valour, whose thudding feet alone as he approach the forest of the ghommids the ghommids ran away on their heads crying, singing aloud 'alas, the beastie being is back...'" He raised the front sight of his sakabula up and fired the last shot "boarrrrrrrrr" remaining in it to scare the king and shattered his boldness. On hearing the shot... Ajiun who was hiding at the back of the king fell on her back and the king fell on Ajiun's chest in utter fear. The front sight of the gun was returned on his forehead this time. Ajiun began to beg as the king began to beg as well, he was quivering now. They were both reeked with dirt now and were sweating profusely and so was Ade who was standing with the gun aimed, for minutes. The scene got filled up with hoary flames from the gun… though but Ade could still see through as he was used to it.
Ade laughed boisterously and said: "So the king can beg?"
"Yes, yes... please, I am not ready to die yet please... Name anything, any land and it shall be yours, I promise." Said the king rubbing his palms against the other giving the gesture of begging.
Ade laughed boisterously the more and boasted: "I have many shots left in my gun but I will not waste them on you. With due respect, you are a useless king. You have reduced yourself to one of those Barbados at the far end of our jurisdiction who have no laws, no integrity and uncultured. I will prefer firing the rest shots at stones or flies than than to waste them on your filthy flesh. I wouldn't blame her. You must have probably promised Ajiun lands so she felt happy to live without pride to open her two legs in the bush under iroko tree for you to rule with your tiny stick."
"Aaaaaaaah, this... this insult is too much..." said silently, Ajiun.
"You were talking to me right?" asked Ade with pretence he did not overhear that.
"No no... she was praising you. That is all" responded the king.
"Hmmm... I thought as much. You can stand up and cover your shameful features with your cloths. I know what to do...."
Ade began to return to Ajewole and Mopelola on the path to the forest with the gun put the across of his neck holding it with the two hands.
