Limitless The Strongest Revenant

[IF YOU ARE ALL SO TERRIFIED THEN JUST FOLLOW ME! TAKE UP YOUR GUNS AND PULL THE TRIGGER! SO LONG AS I AM ALIVE, I WILL KEEP ON MURDERING THESE SICK FUCKS! I DONT EVEN NEED YOU BASTARDS AT ALL!]

"Fuck."

"What? My lord, you looked beyond dashing!" Connie grinned.

[BUT IF YOU ARE ALL FED UP WITH BEING WEAK! IF YOU ARE ALL FED UP WITH SUFFERING THEN PICK UP A GUN AND FIGHT! THIS IS OUR MAIDEN BATTLE! ANYONE WHO WISHES TO SEND THESE FUCKERS BACK TO THEIR GRAVES ROAR WITH ME!]

"Fuck."

"Cheer up my lord, just think of it as someone stealing your face and impersonating you," Phillip added between chuckles.

[THAT WAS PATHETIC YOU FUCKING BASTARDS! EVEN MY GIRLS HAVE BIGGER BALLS THAT YOU SHITS! AGAIN! ROAR LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDED ON IT!]

'How did they even get me to show up in video to begin with?'

At this point, Krishna and his friends along with the Limit Royalty all started screaming in the meeting room.

"HUWAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!"

"WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU ALL YELLING? CONNIE TURN IT OFF ALREADY!"

Probably seeing my reactions, they all started laughing. Mike in particular looked like his stomach was going to explode from holding it in. Krishna stood up and put his hand on my shoulder.

"Smith John, as amusing as all this is, I am serious. The Yuddha Rakshas are all eager to fight with you. When I asked them if they wanted to serve under your banner, they all unanimously agreed. My friends here are all in situations similar to mine."

Hearing about the Yuddha Rakshas, my head quickly cooled down. My embarrassing promo aside, the more important matter was what to do with the groups here. By taking them in, I would be taking their strengths as well as their problems with me.

Krishna was a hot potato for David and Zach right now. Li Wudi, the Revenant of Asia, had issued an ultimatum for his disposal. Knowing what I knew, the moment I turned him away, he would most certainly die in another trap soon in the future.

This was true of all the traitors Zach mentioned. Funnily enough, five of them were already dead. As far as I knew, only Isolde and Krishna were left. With Hellsend steadily growing Phantoms, we were on our way to becoming a powerful force.

Krishna Sangan, with his {Fate} {Captain's Sword}, turned even the weakest child into a capable fighter, and in a war of numbers, he was a fucking menace.

To the death seekers, our armies counted only combatants. So at the moment, Hellsend was still smaller than the Saviors.

We had about 80 combatants, while they had 200. If we could turn the hundreds from our various departments into fighters, along with the Yuddha Rakshas, we would have an army close to a thousand Reapers strong.

'But it is too soon. If I take them in right now, I would be putting a target on my back.'

However, when I thought about it, I felt stupid.

'Right, I have had a target on my back since the time of enlistment. And after murdering the Saviors, I'm sure others would want my head as well.'

Of course, just like the thousand rogues Lilly and the Sirens ended just last night, the reapers of Savior had families.

Fathers, mothers, sons and daughters. No matter who their loved ones were, after tomorrow, none of those people would be coming back.

This was what it meant to win. I would trample over two hundred others to secure my own. And frankly, it didn't bother me in the least. It was at times like this that I truly felt that I was no longer human.

But no matter how I felt, as long as I was willing to take lives, one day a stronger opponent would come to take mine. This was the cycle of hatred that kept the war going forever.

As a result, like a never-ending race, I had no choice but to become stronger. That is, if I wanted to live in peace with my harem and my future children. But unlike the undead, the Reapers were much harder to stop.

'This segue took far too long, my opinion of the cringe speech aside, the bigger issue was that I needed to quickly determine who among this bunch were bad eggs.'

With the matters of the wager coming to a close, the next issue was preparing for the war. I had little time to waste. I could just shoot them all again like we did with Terence and Van, but that would take too long.

"Cynthia, can you please screen Bernard's group and place those who do not want to fight in either the Ten Graves or Inari's Kitchen. Van, help with the screening and tell Minerva if any of them are a good fit for the Wizards."

"Yes, my lord!" x2

It was funny how I had gotten used to being called my lord by now. With more and more people joining, it was inevitable at this point. And for my purposes, I needed the manpower.

The SOS operation only proved one thing: with the right equipment, the Reapers could annihilate the undead.

"As for Krishna and the Yuddha Rakshas, Mike, can you talk to Joshua and see what he thinks?"

"Got it boss, but what about the beauty there?"

I looked at Isolde who still had a stern face. While she was smiling earlier, her demeanor changed after she saw Mike.

"Isolde, what do you and your friends want to do? Have your feelings changed?"

"No Ami, we still want to join Hellsend. My friends are all Soulform Reapers. They turn into mythical creatures. In terms of power, they will be very helpful."

Remembering the power of the German's soul form, I couldn't help but feel excited. The sight of a wyvern melting Draugrs into puddles of sanguine liquid was awesome.

If these four were as strong as Isolde, the five of them might be stronger than our entire army combined.

"I see, Phillip, have Isolde and her friends register as death seekers. We will decide how best to use them after I speak with my girls."

"Yes, my lord, I noticed that they suddenly disappeared earlier. When will they return?"

Honestly, I didn't know because they wouldn't tell me. However, I trusted them, so I wasn't worried. Your next journey awaits at m v|l-e'm,p| y- r

"They had to run errands at my request. They will be back before the war starts."

"Ami, are you sure you do not want to use the favor I owe you later? Part of the reason I came was to fulfill my vow to you."

'{Dragon's Vow}. As payment for today, I will give you one battle. I will fight any enemy you choose, even if it means my death. Thank you for saving Ami. And thank you for listening to my story.'

Remembering Isolde's integrity, I felt fortunate. To be honest, having Isolde in the war would be reassuring. But this battle was only for my harem and me.

"Thank you for your concern, Isolde, but I will be fine. My girls will accompany me after all."

"Okay, Ami, send everyone out except him."

Once again Isolde looked at Mike with hostility. The bloodlust coming out of her was palpable.

"Isolde, calm down. Everyone, please leave us. Van, please take Krishna's group to Joshua."

The people broke into groups as they left. The Limit Royalty, led by Bernard, left with Cynthia. Krishna and his allies followed Van, while the Wyvern's friends, led by Phillip, left to become Death Seekers.
