Limitless The Strongest Revenant

Using my {Kindred} link, I tried to give the one I adored counsel.

'Beloved, let us take them with us. I think they are ready.'

My partner looked at me, then nodded.

"Okay. Then this will be our party. Gareth, I apologize for not being able to fight two days ago. But our promise still stands. The Sirens and I will be the only ones fighting. Your group will guard Connie while she does her thing.

Am I clear?"

It saddened me greatly to see the honor of my {Kindred} tarnished. All because I was too weak to stand up after creating {Call My Name}. I looked at my sisters, and they all had the same frustrated faces.

Since I felt that the girls and I were experiencing the same emotion, I sent a proposal to the Siren Server.

[NeverEnoughCows: Everyone, I would like to propose that Beloved be excluded from the first charge. In light of our failure, we must make amends. Let us take the lead ourselves.]

[RealWomenLikeDolls: I concur. I still cannot forgive Gareth for saying that women have no place on the battlefield. But would Dearest agree?]

[MastiffKnight: He will. If we all ask Possum, he will be like putty. Let's go, Liv.]

[ChainsawsAndPropane: RIGHT! We can do this! Darling will cave, I know it!]

[OneWomanOrchestra: I also want to put Gareth in his place. It is my words that have brought shame to the husband. You have my support Liv.]

[SiliconeChipDiva: Carry on Liv. We will just reserve Honey for the Alpha. As his {Kindred} we should clean house.]

[HaveYouMetMyFish: Ara ara. Everyone seems fired up. Though I can't say I understand. I also agree if Shujin approves this plan.]

With everyone on board, I walked over to my man as he explained {Call my Name} to Gareth.

"Beloved, the Sirens and I wish to establish the forward position on our own. Will you please allow us to show our worth?" I pleaded earnestly.

My {Kindred} looked me in the eye and went through a hundred emotions in a few seconds. He clenched his jaw as he turned to the Sirens and me.

"Then I will leave the first attack to you, my {Kindred}. Please be careful."

Elated at his acceptance, I dove in to kiss his cheek. Normally, I would be more reserved, but only a Siren knew how overprotective Limitless was.

He cried so much when he saw our condition as we created our {Kismet}. Allowing us to fight was against all his instincts.

But because he trusted us, he agreed. Unlike the husbands who made fools of their wives, Beloved truly relied on us.

The turmoil and worry in his {Kindred} link felt surprisingly pleasant. It only showed how much Beloved wanted us to be safe.

"Thank you, my love, come join us as soon as the Alpha is found," I said affectionately.

He nodded wordlessly as he turned to Gareth.

"We are ready. Open the gate to the 24th level."

"Yes, my lord," the Phantom replied. A great skybeam fell upon our group.

As our bodies began to disappear under the light, a thunderous roar came from the rest of Hellsend.

"TO THE LORD AND TO THE LADIES! MAY YOUR FATE END THE DARKNESS!"

May your fate end the darkness. As I pondered these words, our party warped into our new battleground.

***

Feeling my feet on solid ground, I opened my eyes. We were in what appeared to be a dark and desolate land.

It was dimly lit and eerily quiet.

"{Portal}! Exa, how many enemies are there?"

[Lady Bella, scans show that there are over 10,000 Rank D Lizardkin. Over 20,000 Rank E's of various types along with over 900,000 Rank F undead. The enemies are scattered all over the floor. Finally, there is a Champion Rank Alpha of an unknown type, last seen in zone 1247-6.]

"WOW! SO MANY! Darling! I want a reward later okay!"

"Shut up, you nut job! Possum, we are leaving now."

"Husband, watch closely."

"Shujin, we bid you farewell. Lilly-sama, please do the honors."

Listening to my sisters, one would not think that they were about to go into an extremely fierce battle.

"Dearest, we will be back soon. IN THE NAME OF LIMITLESS! SIRENS! ESTABLISH A BEACHHEAD AT ZONE 1245-1! OPEN COMBAT!"

At Lilly's words, we all invoked Beloved's {Kismet}.

"{LIMITLESS}!" x7

A powerful surge of soul enveloped our bodies, giving us a sense of omnipotence. Armed with the power of his name, I felt my blood burn!

The girls and I jumped forward and ran toward our destination.

[My ladies, every enemy on the entire floor has been alerted to our presence. Large numbers have begun to move toward our position.]

I could hear the loud footfalls from all around us. Beasts hissed, growled, and screamed from afar. But the girls and I feared none of them.

"My children, please set the table!"

At Bella's words, I heard the engines of the soulless army come to life! Switchblades and drones flew into the air. MAARs and Ripsaws all ran after us as well.

Within minutes of running, {Sonar} picked up close to 10,000 signals, most of them rank F's.

I drew my M32 and Tomahawk shield and prepared for battle.

'[Wizard], [Assassin], [Knight], Exa, let's do this.

[Understood, Lady Liv. [War Cry] is ready.]

Taking a deep breath, I summoned death resonance as I roared.

"{I AM FREYJA! THE SHIELD OF THE LIMITLESS! ANYONE WITH THE COURAGE TO FIGHT ME! STEP FORWARD!}"

[War Cry] was a {Program} I created. It used {Announce} and {Suffer} to create a powerful taunt that would direct all aggression toward me.

'I can feel it. The hatred of thousands of beings staring at me. Their blood lust. Their wrath. It is terrifying! '

But still I ran forward. Because I was not alone! And because of the one whose name I stood for!

"AAAAGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" I shouted to the heavens as I raised my M32 and prepared to fire.

My eyes, enhanced by {Perceive}, could see the army of the dead coming at me. Their eyes seemed to glow in the darkness of the night. But it didn't matter. They would all be gone soon.

The other girls stopped and shouldered their weapons. I, on the other hand, aimed the M32 at the undead and pressed the trigger in quick succession. Six thuds rang out, launching six 40mm grenades into the air.

They fell from the sky like meteors. Mighty explosions of holy energy shook the ground, sending dust and debris into the air.

Like small suns, each one bathed everything around us in a blinding light. All six explosions devastated the approaching horde.

My impressive feat seemed useless in the face of such overwhelming numbers. But such was our life. Fortunately, we were prepared. Loud gunfire from both my flanks.

Lilly opened fire with her minigun. Sacreds vaporized the approaching undead, leaving golden dust in their wake.

Jo and Robyn began darting around, blowing apart any undead that clustered together. The higher caliber of their weapons showed the absolute carnage they were unleashing.

[Rank E Cyclops detected. Number 3]

Before anyone could do anything, three powerful bolts of light erupted from behind me.

The projectiles flew toward the Cyclopes and crashed into their giant eyes. Like balloons, the massive monsters' heads burst before exploding in a mess of blood and gore. Find adventures at empire

Of course, such precision could only be the work of Jasmine.

[A ground of rank E Giants have...]

Again, Exa couldn't even finish her sentence when several Switchblades fell from the sky. The ensuing explosions tore the Giants to shreds. Ichor and bone blood rained down from where they powerful monsters once stood.

My eyes caught the blue torch of an Undertaker. But in the next second, he suddenly fell dead. There was no sound, no gunfire. I looked around and found Aki sitting on a ledge, sniping at them. Then she jumped up and started running in another direction.

"Tsk, what purpose do I have if nothing reaches me? Stop killing everything!"

Annoyed, I ran forward. Ignoring the plan we had in place. The Sirens were too powerful. If I stayed where I was, everything would be dead before I could even fight.

Laughing at the absurdity of my family, I jumped into the air and crashed into the middle of the enemy army, raging with all my might.

Despite the gravity of our situation, I felt at peace. That was the effect of fighting under the company of those I trusted.

And to wage war under the name of Limitless.
