Limitless The Strongest Revenant

I called my six other Soul Avatars out to play. The girls all showed signs of annoyance at my act. While they were sort of useful in using weapons, against Reapers that knew how to fight, they were weak.

The Hammer team in particular saw how powerless my Avatars were to the vampires. It is sufficient to say that aside from the battle with Savior my Soul Avatars had little use. The fight with George Clay drove that point brutally. But that ended today.

Looking at the girls I had my six other bodies call my other disciplines.

"[Defender]." "[Gladiator]." "[Sky Sentinel]." "[Heavy Gunner]." "[Executioner]." "[Ninja]."

The girls all got into combat stances as they raised their weapons. Unlike me who already knew what they could do, my upgrades were something they had yet to figure out. Or so I thought.

"Husband's new Discipline system allows his body to fight on par with us. They all also can invoke {Fates} using {Programs} as a proxy. I cannot tell who Sunday is. Even with {Insight}. His body has evolved to that of a 9th generation Descendant."

"Do not worry, everyone to show you how powerful my new {Kismet} are, I will all beat you in your own respective fields." I had all of my bodies shouted.

At that moment my avatars all moved. Similarly, the Sirens somehow picked the discipline based on them and chased after each avatar.

"[Hellsend's Armory]. Tomahawk shield, AA-12. [Wall]! [Vortex]!"

I ran forward with Monday. He was using [Defender], which was my tanking discipline. Armed with my shield along with a full auto shotgun I invoked one of [Defenders] skills. [Wall] was the {Program} version of {Reinforce}.

At my words all of my Avatars manifested {Shelter} Armor. Liv who noticed also ran forward. She invoked [Asura] and began shooting me with 40mm low velocity grenades. Liv didn't bother using [War Cry] and instead tried to blow me away without mercy.

"{REINFORCE}! HERE I COME MY LOVE!" She roared!

I raised my shield as I continued to charge towards her. The explosions around me were blocked by the very air. Similar to bubbles, distortions in the air absorbed the shrapnel and flames as I passed. This was the new anti-projectile ability [Vortex]. The second skill for the [Defender] discipline.

"HO? Impressive defense Beloved! You use Lilly's sub spaces as forcefield. Good! But how does it stand against this!"

Liv's support arm aimed the 1887 and fired a 10-gauge slug. My eyes could see the slow projectile fly through the air as the bullet flashed red, orange and white.

"Sunset slugs? FUCK!"

The slug pierced through my [Vortex] forcefields and exploded. Thankfully, my shield shrugged off the brunt of the impact. As the fires from the explosion burned everything around us, I raised the AA-12 and pulled the trigger. Only for my Valkyrie to use her shield to smack away the slugs I shot.

As Liv and I sprinted towards each other the distance between us quickly shrunk. She then lunged for me with a sword as her other arms fired the 1887 lever action and M32 grenade launchers nonstop.

'No wonder the Vampires were slaughtered like sheep. Liv's Asura style is fucking tyrannical.'

Determined to resist my Beloved's overwhelming onslaught of attacks, I braced my body for a terrifying beating. I redirected her sword to the side. Only to be peppered by 10-gauge and 40mm caliber slugs.

Thanks to [Defender], my [Wall] soul armor didn't break. And I also didn't get blown away despite getting pummeled with high powered rounds. I again raised my gun and fired at Liv while hiding behind my shield. It was a good thing, my {Fates} allowed me to aim accurately without vision.

My Valkyrie tanked the rounds and continued to pepper my body point blank. She even smashed her sword and shield into me intending to break my stance. But I stood my ground.

"My love! Just surrender! It pains me to harm you like this!"

{Block} and {Shelter} as well as {Reinforce} protected against external force. But they while they all negated external force similar to {Withstand} they were only half as effective for internal forces. As there was no new {fate} that boosted {Endure} my insides got hammered.

"Fuck! Liv, you are so fucking badass!"

"THEN CEASE YOUR FOOLISHNESS AND PLEASE LAID DOWN YOUR ARMS, MY LOVE! YOU CANNOT HOPE TO DEFEAT ME! I do not want to hurt you any further."

"Haha! I'm just getting warmed up, Beloved! [Inspire]!" I smiled as we continued.

At my invocation, my body regained stamina and calmed my nerves. [AutoRewind], which automated my entire {fate} family, casted {Regen}. My body healed at an accelerated pace. Beating Liv was never my goal, nailing her in place was already plenty.

A few kilometers away from Liv, Tuesday and Lilly were locked in combat. Lilly was dual wielding her greatsword on her right and the M134D on her left. Somehow the Minigun was tied on her forearm like she was a fucking mech.

In contrast I was wielding Roach's anti-soul polearm as I fended off her sword. Lilly twisted her body to catch me off balance before kneeing me in the gut. She then brought her elbow on my back before kicking me away.

"You are far too arrogant Dearest. I didn't become a Specter for nothing." Raising her Minigun, Lilly pulled the trigger and peppered me with Red 7.62mm NATO.

I tucked my body to one side as I ran forward. Monday's [Wall] armor absorbed the blows like a champ. The exploding rounds bruised my insides, but I shrugged it off ran forward and swung the polearm at Lilly. My aim? The rotary machine gun on her forearm.

"Too predictable. You are too soft Dear! Attack me and not my weapon!"

As Lilly took a step back, I invoked one of [Gladiator's] {Programs}, "[Duel]."

"What?! My body! Ugh!"

In response to my skill, Lilly' swung her sword instead of avoiding. As a result, we traded blows. Her greatsword cleaved my right shoulder while I sliced her Minigun's barrels to pieces. I smiled when she lost her weapon and forced my body forward.

As her sword was still embedded in me, my brash action tore open my wound even further. But rather than worry about my injury, I switched weapons. I raised my left hand and summoned a high-powered battle rifle.

"[Hellsend's Armory] HCAR."

Aiming at Lilly's abdomen I pulled the trigger. At this distance even if she was a Specter Lilly needed to either leave her greatsword or eat my bullets. [Maestro] predicted that if it was Phantom Lilly, she might have chosen the former. But now?

"Dearest, you severely underestimate me," Lilly said with a pout.

A small portal the size of a large plate appeared in front of my gun. My entire salvo of .30-06 Springfield rounds entered {Portal} harmlessly, disappearing soon after. Much like my [Vortex] Lilly used subspace as defensive layers with {Withdraw}.

"I would never, Lilly. [Valiant]."

Power surged in my body numbing the pain of my fucked-up shoulder. Using my own shoulder to lock Lilly's weapon in I used my right hand to keep it in place. My left on the other hand summoned another weapon.

"[Hellsend's Armory] Ebony."

"Pitiful!"

Lilly finally let go of her weapon as she sent a full powered punch to my sternum. Only I twisted my torso at the last moment, her fist instead glanced of my shoulder. My pistol was directly aimed at her lower thigh. I pulled the trigger.

"It usele..Argh! What? I got hit?"

The Specter looked at me in surprise as she quickly leapt away. She immediately casted {Regen} to heal her wounds. I did the same.

"How? [Valiant] only seems to invoke {Dope} on injuries. That doesn't explain how you undid my defensive subspaces!"

"You are so smart my princess. Yes, [Valiant] is exactly that. But [Gladiator] has another ability. It's called [Study]. It uses {Insight} and {Calculate} to learn everything about its opponent. This discipline is my boss killer mode Dearest.

I made it just for you."

"Tsk! How incorrigible! Try to make this entertaining sweetheart! I am just getting started!"

And so, my battles with the Siren's began. Monday successfully pinned down Liv with [Defender]. [Gladiator] arguably the strongest of my disciplines allowed Tuesday to barely keep up with Lilly.

While my performance for both match ups was not bad, it wasn't good either. But it wasn't Lilly or Liv who I needed to take out. It was someone else. And until I took her down, there was no way I was going to win.
