Limitless The Strongest Revenant

Chapter 315: How much? [2/2]



"WOOHH!!!" "TEN GRAVES!" "TEN GRAVES!" "TEN GRAVES!"

"Okay! Everybody settle down! Your team leaders all have their assignments. TEN GRAVES! TO YOUR ZONES!"

The ten groups of fifty people all continued to shout as they all warped into their zones. To the onlookers, it was like a gathering of overzealous lunatics.

As the groups disappeared, the area suddenly felt empty. My girls and I, along with Addison, Cynthia, and the employees gathered in front of Eva. Lilly and Aki were missing for some reason.

"It's a crazy gig you have going on. Even you people are crazy, boy. But what should we do with the food? There's still way too much here!"

I gestured to the 2nd Amendment and had them join us.

"Everyone, take some meat and put it in your {Autos}. While you are all mercenaries, the Phantoms will soon be called upon to perform zone defense. A supply would help you out."

"Commander, won't the mistresses take some?" Joshua asked.

Liv smiled as she replied. "Thank you for your concern, Captain, but the Sirens already have our share."

Robyn commented similarly as she juggled grenades out of boredom. "Possum is extremely overprotective. He has plans to feed us even if we are under siege for a year. Just take some."

The boys stared and laughed at her comment, Santiago commented in passing, "Hefe, why am I not surprised? If your women are loco, what does that make you?"

"Santiago, if you are looking for a new hole to breathe through, keep talking," I added as a joke.

"Brother Santiago. I would suggest that you refrain from insulting the Sirens in front of Patron. He is kind of crazy about them. Just as they are crazy about him," Yvonne added.

Mike added as he bowed after removing his cowboy hat, "Mi 'ladies, please forgive the Mexican, his word game is shit after all."

The group began to laugh at the comedy routine of the guys. Then a couple of reapers stepped forward. Faster than anyone could move, my Sheila appeared in front of them with her MAC-11's drawn.

"What do you want, cunts? Do the Harry before I blast you all."

"Eek!" "Shit!" "STOP!" "WE COME IN PEACE!"

"Kitten."

"But Possum, these Slaggers have been lurking around since earlier."

Then I turned to Bella and asked her a question.

[Mrs. Code, have the three spies been caught yet?]

Bella nodded as she answered. [Yes, Lilly and Aki are interrogating them right now.]

So those people were not the spies, but what could they want?

"Kitten, please stand back. You lot, why did you come here?"

Robyn made an angry face as she put her weapons away. Of course she came to my side and asked for attention. Obviously, she was still wearing bloody clothes, so no one would take her threats lightly.

"Limitless, we are a group of adventurers. We saw the commotion and wanted to ask if your food is for sale? We need supplies as well. I know it is a long shot, but if we could afford it, we would like to buy some."

When I heard the young man's words, I immediately understood. Unlike mercenaries, adventurers moved around a lot. Much like Warren did before he joined me. Even without the benefits of {Comfort Food}, just having a meal with you was a great source of security.

Eva waited for my answer before making her own. Technically, the entire spread was mine, so only I had the authority to decide what to do with it. I then approached Eva and asked.

"Mrs. Baker, can you cast your {fate} on the food to keep it from spoiling? A week would be enough. How much would it cost in souls?"

"Hmm, it would cost a little over 10 souls for a week. For 50, I can make it last a month."

"No, that is fine, 10 is enough," I replied.

Looking at the adventurers, I decided to do what a capitalist would do in this situation.

"Then each skewer of meat is worth 100 souls. That would give you a day's worth of energy for a single bite, and it will not rot or spoil for a week."

"Oh! That is quite cheap! I would like to buy five."

At my words the Sirens all moved to settle the details, Phillip guided the Adventures like a professional waiter and had Eva's people packed the food.

Jo and Robyn then went to opposite ends of our zone and began shouting with {Announce} "MEAT SKEWERS FOR 100 SOULS. THEY LAST A WEEK AND FILL YOU UP IN ONE BITE!"

The effect was immediate, the people standing outside our event suddenly all rushed to the tables.

"Lady! Give me ten!" "I'll take two!" "Three for me!"

Liv stood in front of Eva's table. Together with her husband, the lumberjack, they looked like giants among men. The customers were naturally intimidated just at the sight of them.

Bella and Jasmine came to my side as we discussed.

"For 100 souls, it is quite cheap. Considering its {Eat} and lasts more than two days. Good choice, honey."

"Husband, are you sure you want to give this away? We could have used it in the future."

"Yes, it is okay, I wanted to form a soup kitchen group to take to the north. If Eva's group could fill that need, we could start selling food like this."

"Liv would be happy to know how much you think of her," Bella teased.

"Well, it is expected. My brain is divided into eight compartments right now, one for each of you and one for everything else. My head is filled with nothing but information about the Sirens."

Amused by my words, Bella and Jasmine gave me a kiss before returning to help with the organization. While Eva had plenty of servers, she lacked cashiers.

At this point, two large groups approached us. One was made up of strong men in overalls and the other was made up of about two dozen people dressed in purple robes.

The pressure from both groups was considerable, especially from the strong men. Before I could even comment, I heard the sounds of safeties being removed and bullets being chambered.

Both the 2nd Amendment and Vela's wolves flanked my sides with their guns raised. Joshua spoke in an authoritative voice.

"Stop! If you continue to approach, you will be fired upon. This area has been reserved by the LLG and Limitless. If you continue to disrupt the event, we will use deadly force!"

At my squad captain's words, I noticed how on guard they were. Probably as a result of getting their asses handed to them, the army as a whole was tense. Too tense, if you ask me.

"Joshua. This is too much, Stan..."

Before I could finish, both groups knelt and bellowed at the same time.

"PLEASE LET US WORK FOR YOU, LIMITLESS!"

"What?"

"Limitless, I am Van Micron, my group and I are Formless Wraiths from Academics. We wish to serve under your banner! I have with me twenty-five of the brightest Reapers you will ever find!"

"Limitless, ignore the man-child over there and hire me and da boys! Name is Terence Anvil. Formless! I have fifty strong men from Fortification. If you got shit to build, we are your guys!"

Fortification and Academics, two of the five professions I have yet to talk to. And these people were all Formless.

Stunned, I remember what Bella said before.

"Honey, because you showed that people like us can fly, thousands now wish to take to the skies. And with the NA continent as your ground zero, the Formless from all over are coming here to meet you."

"Ugh. why can't things be simple?"
