Limitless The Strongest Revenant

Chapter 275: With friends like him [2/2]

The parents of those poor bastards had already managed to create an army out of sight. But for the mere promise of 750,000 souls, they all showed up.

Using the people of Savior, someone convinced the people who created the rogues that killing me was worth more than staying hidden. Next, the bastard incited the thugs to rape my women and beat my men, Phillip included.

Without both, I could only kill the rogues or the reapers looking for a payday. I took down hundreds the first time. And in the flashiest way possible. Yet these bastards were still surprised when I responded with deadly force.

If this was all orchestrated.

"That nightmare bastard just used me to kill everything that gave him a headache," I cursed in annoyance.

If Savior really wanted my head, the best time to use this army would be to overwhelm me during the Seeker War. If the entire force arrived when I had to deal with Savior's Phantoms, the chances of my death would be much higher.

Besides, according to Vincent's document, Savior barely had time to gather fifty people. There was no way they would suddenly have over thirty Phantoms to spare. The more I thought about it, the more it clicked.

"That fucking bastard, with friends like him, who needs enemies?"

I approached Grey Ash and spoke.

"Captain. I have no grudge against the White Guard. You were people my bride once led. Robyn attacked you because you stood in her way. With the Wraiths dead, we have no reason to fight. Do you agree?"

"..."

The longer my life as a reaper continued, the more I noticed the diplomacy of overwhelming force. No matter what this Ash bastard wanted to say, if he could barely keep Robyn at bay, there was no way his forces could survive an attack from the Seven Sirens and me.

Luckily, I was the one with the biggest stick. If it came to the situation that I was not. I would most likely just die needlessly.

'There are just too many enemies to prepare for. Undead, humans, reapers. Becoming as strong as possible as quickly as possible is still the best way. I have to work harder.'

Grey Ash made a face like he swallowed shit and nodded.

I held out my hand to him, he accepted my friendly gesture and I helped him up. The rest of his men stood up, seemingly dazed. Grey then moved to pick up the coat and hat that Lilly had so easily abandoned.

With a face full of longing, he held both reverently and called to the men behind him.

"Everyone, let us go back, the matter is settled. Change is coming and we must be ready."

Then the White Guard departed as quickly as they had arrived. Less than a minute later, the soul barriers surrounding the entire receiving area were deactivated. Soul suddenly surged around the place, creating the invigorating feeling I had become familiar with.

I then noticed dozens of people coming in with mops and buckets. With them were about fifty wraiths, all holding glowing red staffs. They all chanted in unison at the corpses littering the ground.

"{Fireball}!"

At their words, a light show began as small bowling ball sized fireballs rained down on the receiving area. The hit corpses were all incinerated without much fuss. I was quite surprised by their actions. Normally the authorities would examine the bodies first or something.

I turned to the 2nd Amendment, who still refused to move.

"Why the hell are you all still on the ground?"

"..."

I then turned around and noticed that they were all looking at my women. The Sirens were busy with different tasks. Lilly was storing Bella's children while the others were salvaging what I thought were Phantom soulgems.

"What? Are you afraid of the girls? They are adorable! They are the kindest women you could ever lay your eyes on."

In response to my words, people all expressed colorful responses.

"Nigga, I knew I made the right call. No nigga in the history of the world starts with a fucking massacre right off the bat! But hell naw man. You sure you want to clap them cheeks? Can't complain about the booty, but I don't think any nigga alive could handle all of them."

"White boy. Now I know why you loony."

"Commander, I'm afraid at this rate you'll get sucked dry and die on your honeymoon."

"John, I'm sorry. You must be blinder than a bat that can no longer scream in the middle of winter. How are any of your women kind or adorable?"

"Boss, I suggest you never cheat on your wives. Not if you want to die quietly. They may be extremely attractive, but they are all in the hot/crazy matrix danger zone."

"Hefe. I agree with the cowboy. Your señoritas are loco. They are possessed by demons, ese! Sleep with one eye open."

"Patron. I think I'm being paranoid, but I feel that your lovers want to kill me. Yvonne, you felt it too, right?"

"I know, right? Definitely sus! Patron, you based asf! I know you're a siren stan probs even a siren simp. No wonder you ignored my rizz. Gyatt!

The Sirens be lit asf! No cap! You gotta introduce me, Patron! Spill the tea!"

"I didn't understand a word you said, Miss Yvonne, please keep your speech professional. However, I do agree with the 2nd Amendment, esteemed Limitless. You are looking at them through rose colored glasses. They just killed almost a thousand people. Please exercise caution."

Ignoring what Yvonne said, I understood why my men were worried.

I certainly understood the hesitation of the rest of them, after all, half of my girls were drenched in blood, while the rest were as cold as ice.

But Phillips' comment about rose-colored glasses made me think. Would I want a woman who could not defend herself? Maybe when I was human. But now? No way in hell would I take on such a burden.

In that way, the Sirens were exactly what I wanted. People who would warm my bed as well as my heart. All while watching my back and helping me in battle.

I then looked at the Sirens as they all returned to my side. The sight of all seven of them safe was extremely comforting. In the midst of blood and death, something began tonight.

And I couldn't wait to see what came next.

Ignoring the complaints and warnings of my men, I simply replied as I looked at my women.

"Isn't that the best part though?" I replied absentmindedly.
