Limitless The Strongest Revenant-Chapter 652: Probably not [1/2]

"Of course, there should be five on this floor. If what the bloodsuckers did to me was done to them then all we need to do is free them."

"Okay. Then we will abandon this place and make our way to the 32nd floor," I declared.

Nyda bowed to me while asking in trepidation. "My lord, you wish to abandon everyone else?"

"Indeed. The goal of this operation has not changed. I am doing to this save your sister and kill some vampires while I am at it. Saving George and his men would be an additional benefit, but I have no intention to sacrifice my time and effort for those who would not even follow me."

"I see, I understand my lord. Thank you for taking the time to explain. But what of the Dirge sirens? Do we ring them to call for reinforcements or proceed with just us?"

I thought for a moment before answering.

"Leave them be. I am here not as a Reaper of North America. I will tell them Zach after we return. For now, we will take it one step at a time."

"Understood," Nyda replied with a bow.

Pulling out the toy Escalade, I laid it in front of me.

"{Compact}," at my words the toy enlarged to a full-sized SUV. George made a comical expression at the vehicle. He probably needed a moment to deal with it.

"Lilly, do you mind driving? I want to ride on Burger."

"Not being able to ride with you is a bit disappointing, but If that is what you wish that I would do my all to fulfill it."

Pleased with her obedience I gave her a small peck on the cheek as I whispered in gratitude.

"Thank you, Dearest. What will I ever do without you?"

I felt my arm being tugged to one side. Only to find Jas pouting unhappily.

"Husband, why didn’t you ask me? I can drive as well."

Seeing how adorable Jas acted, I couldn’t resist also giving her a quick kiss on her luscious lips. Happy feelings surged from her link at my sudden act of affection. Her annoyance seemingly abated; the Ebony death stalker stayed in place.

"Wifey, I am counting on you to protect our convoy. Rather than have your hands on a steering wheel, I want them on the Barret M107. You are my guardian angel, so I give this responsibility to you. While you can drive, only Lilly can fight without the use of her hands."

This was mainly my reason. Lilly was able to use momentum and physics to wield bullets even without their guns. During the fight with the Slayer, even with both her arms gone, she could fight with just her portals and the stuff she had in her inventory.

Even her makeshift rail gun was a great example. That shit used a fucking mountain as ammo and electrocuted portals as the gun barrel. Such over the top techniques were Lilly’s forte.

Jas for all her abilities could not fight without a physical weapon. And while she had abilities that were just as powerful, it was like comparing apples to oranges.

"Hmph! Fine! But I expect a lot of kisses later," Jas replied, a bit miffed. Although despite her saying so, she quickly got onto the top of my car and prepared the bi-pod of her anti-material rifle.

"We do not have cars in the North. Wait for me my love, I will learn to drive one as soon as possible," Liv vowed with gusto. It appeared that seeing as how Esca would be part of our forces, she suddenly grew excited to learn how to drive.

I walked towards the Northerner and held her hands in mine, "knowing how to drive is a good skill to have. I can teach you, love. It will be another one of the things we can do together."

"I look forward to it then, Beloved," Liv replied. She brought my hand to her lips and gave it a kiss. Her eyes gazed at me in warmth and excitement. Naturally I couldn’t help myself and grabbed her by the waist.

As I exchanged a sweet moment with her, I heard the peanut gallery voice their thoughts.

"Nyda, he always like this? From how docile he is with his women, you wouldn’t know how insane he fights. I truly pity the bastard who hurts them in front of him."

"Well, it goes both ways from what I know of. Only three of the Sirens are present. The other four are guarding the 24th floor. But all seven of them are not only capable in combat but are uh…a little…no, very…no….hmm…"

"The word you are looking for is batshit insane, Cupcake. The Sirens are obsessive, psychopathic and frighteningly hold little to no morals when it concerns the lord. If the rest of them were here you would probably already be dead, George," Leo added.

Despite being stoic this fucker was both opinionated and a straight shooter. However, as none of what he said was wrong, neither I nor the Sirens saw fit to correct him.

"Mr. Leo please don’t say such words out loud. You might get shot!"

"Yeah brutha, the Sirens beat the shit out of anyone they don’t like. Armor won’t save you."

My {Vassals} on the other hand simply warned him of the consequence of his words. It was hilarious that the two of them didn’t even deny anything of what he just said.

After our lips parted Liv saw fit to lick my cheek as she traced my jawline. "Then farewell for now beloved. Let us proceed with our hunt." Her link burned with fervor at her declaration.

"Ho? You seem eager, love?" I asked in curiosity.

"I am. The North also has its share of vampires. I lost a few of my siblings to them. It feels like a dream, that I am now going to be fighting against those I could only run from in the past."

"That is understandable. But then again Liv, you at the moment, cannot be compared to the one who left the North."

The Northerner made a breathtaking smile as she grinned in bliss.

"It is natural. For one I have you now. I am no longer alone. That fact grants me unfathomable strength."

"Liv, Dearest, please stop flirting and get in the car already."

"Liv is clearly learning how to seduce and manipulate Husband. I have mixed feelings about this."

"Hahaha, I am sorry. Jas, Lilly, I will allow you to drown in his love before me as a peace offering."

"Tsk…Liv, you are starting to become shameless," Lilly replied. Jas on the other hand just rolled her eyes.

While the rest of our party boarded Esca, Liv sat beside Lilly up front, Nyda and George were already marking the locations of our targets on a physical map.

’Exa, earlier you summoned Fries away from the battle and had him launch a surprise attack. How did you do it? Doesn’t {Withdraw} and {Stock} have a limit of ten feet from my body?’

[Normally that would be the case, but Lady Bella has a way of bypassing it using {Portal}. Basically, with the entrance {Portal} close to you, the second one, can be placed at any distance you could manage. This fact combined with [Inventory] has both sub spaces treated as one long continuous space.]

’Oh. So, the ten feet could be stretchered infinitely with that approach, so long as she can manage requirement to open the {Portal}.’

[Yes, that is the case. My lord, the same feat can be replicated by your efforts due to the [Combat Shadow Silhouette]. The only thing I can do that you cannot is chain them all together into a single fighting style.]

’Wasn’t that the reason my body was out cold for the last two days? You drive my body even more reckless than I do. I would never willingly charge into an area being bombarded by Switchblades.’

[It was actually a combat tactic I got from you, my lord. Didn’t you detonate 40-mm grenades in close quarters to charge {Suffer}? It seemed like an extremely efficient performance wise thus I merely imitated it.]

’Yeah, that’s because you aren’t the one getting ravaged by shrapnel. It fucking hurts you know.’

[I would say it does. But my lord, haven’t you been through worse? I knew you had no such qualms about self-destructive tactics so long as it grants us victory. Was I mistaken?]

’…’

I couldn’t even say anything to her flawless logic. Exa’s words meant one thing. She knew I wouldn’t hesitate to blow myself up to kill an enemy. But someone if felt wrong when I was the one who got blown up when she fought in my stead.
