Limitless The Strongest Revenant

At my declaration the girls were all frantic once more.

'Beloved, you know I adore you, but why did you do that? I understand you treat them as allies but they are still outsiders. They might betray us or worse steal the halberds for their battlefronts. If we truly wish to reclaim the North, this is something we do not need.'

'Hmm. Dearest you… No. I guess we can work to sell it as well. It will be an even bigger deal that Benevols. We can even use it as both a carrot and the stick. From then on it would be a question of supply and demand. I wonder if Roach can have Juno's sisters as material farms.'

'Possum, What the fuck? Have you turn into a bogan from getting pummeled? You know anti-soul weapons cut through {Rewind}, right? Our guys will get killed if the enemy get their hands on them. Wait until the rest of us become Specters at least.'

'Are you sure about this Darling? A trump card is most useful when no one knows its exists. It might work, but it is extremely risky. Once you invoke {Kill Switch} and expose Exa's monitoring, everyone will turn against you. We lack the power to beat everyone else into submission.'

'Mr. Code, I know you are not stupid. But I can't think of a single reason why you would act like a complete imbecile! You know that they will eventually trace it to Roach, right? Once they do, they will hunt him down and take him away under false pretenses.'

'Husband, I believe this is a mistake. We are not ready. While the other continents can tolerate the Benevols as they help Reapers, the anti-soul weapons are a different story. However, if such is your will. Then I will do all I can to support you.'

'Anata, I feel you are too mischievous. You are going to use Amari and Mia as bait aren't you? I have no objections so long as you will not take the responsibility of protecting them. I am confused though. Was it your goal to isolate them? Or lure out possible traitors?'

It was interesting to listen to my girls. They all focused on different things. Despite being presented the same issue, each Siren raise different concerns. And their concerns seemed to all take different facets of the problem into consideration.

Liv was as always concerned about our security and defenses. Giving them information would leave us vulnerable to betrayal should Amari and Mia decide to steal or sabotage us. I couldn't blame her as this matter affected the success of Antarctica's reclamation.

Lilly on the other hand already began weighing pro and cons about selling it. Considering that we tried to use Benevols or Devil's Remains before for trade, it was only natural. In reality, Roach's anti-soul scythes were on par if not worth more.

Robyn's mind was on the implications of them being stolen. At the moment we had yet to lose to anyone despite our insane antics. This was mostly because of {Rewind}. It served as our safety net. By giving our enemies access to anti-soul, we expose ourselves to danger and death.

Jo, the smartest of my girls seemed to correctly guess what I was about to do. She even brought up the parts I worried about. The simplest way to use the anti-soul weapons was as an ace in the hole, but why stop there? For the change I wish to see, I had to take a leap of faith.

Meanwhile Bella's concern went one step further. Once we used the anti-soul to exert control, our enemy's next step would be to figure out where we got it. And it wouldn't take long before they trace it back to our ally. It didn't take much to imagine what would happen next.

My chocolate skinned lover much like her sister saw the end result of my decision. The Anti-soul was just too dangerous. Rather than wait for me to attack them, they would invade and kill me first. Yet despite such grave states, Jasmine didn't even hesitate to throw her hat in my ring.

Finally, my Kamisan believed this act was a ruse to coerce traitors to move. If Amari and Mia notify their respective governments, the international intelligence agencies would all move. And rather than antagonize me, the spies hidden among us would find it easier to just attack Amari and his lover.

The one common thing about their concerns where they all assumed the worse in people. From betrayal, greed to our demise. The Sirens all acted on the direst of situations. Even Jo, who seemed to correctly guess my decision believed we lack the power to do as I wanted.

However, rather than answer the girls, I simply smiled. And from a confrontational pack of beasts, they all turned meek and turned silent. It was moments like these that I loved my girls so much. Even if they knew better. Even if they had their own preferences. When I talk, they listen.

Rather the prove me wrong, they respected my authority. And the best part was even if I made a mistake, I knew none of the girls would blame me. They would instead stay by side and fix the problem together. This was why I would never trade any of them for the world.

"Uh…Limitless, are you sure you should be telling us this?"

"Choco is right, Limitless. The complications of this is too great. Please leave us out of it."

The responses of the two showed that they were not idiots. Stupid people would see only the direct benefit of sending this information home. The average would know the changes it would make to the landscape. The truly wise would know the dangers of even just knowing.

Feeling this was enough to turned back to the Cynthia and Addison. "How many Devil's Remains have we managed to stock up?"

Cynthia hesitated for a moment before holding up eight fingers, "We managed to collect eight thousand individual pieces. The reclamation of the 24th floor alone gained us four thousand. Hellsend's daily farming rate is about 300 units per day."

"Out of the that number, over 4000 have been converted to mass produced benevols. the production has been quite slow due to everyone hunting to pay the tax. But as we plan to pay for next month in advance, we should be able to dedicate next month just to processing them," Addison continued.

Everyone's jaws dropped from the numbers we heard especially those from other battlefronts. 300 Benevols a day was incredible. The number of Reapers in the assault teams were quite small. A tiny fraction compared to the total population of the Reapers.

At the rate we were going we would be able to equip every Reaper with a Benevol before the year ended. But I was just getting started. There were three things America did right. Capitalism, gambling and our love of guns. And my next plan would take a move from David's own play book.

"Good. For the next thirty days all Production teams of the Ten Graves will hunt the bare minimum. They will concentrate on accomplishing my requests. Joshua, I want Cynthia and Addison's people to be able to pay my tax without leaving our base. Make it happen."

"Yes, my lord! Consider it done! We will drag the zombies out to outside their workshops if we have too," the Asian replied.

It was quite comical to imagine such a situation. But for what I wanted to achieve it was necessary. I then faced Yvonne and the saints.

"Yvonne, how many Sacreds do we possess? Do we have enough to arm a million guns?"

My words caused Yvonne to frown; she took a moment before answering. There was no trace of childishness in her face. Aisha and Claire, her adjutants all began discussing behind her.

"I apologize Patron. While we have not stopped making Sacreds, it is far from enough. We have enough to arm maybe 200,000. However, if the invasion is within a month, I swear to you we will bless till we vomit blood all to arm a million..."

"Good. I know you won't let me down. I want your Saints to create as many Sacreds as possible within a month. You can coordinate with Phillip, Leo and Nyda to hire Adventurers or whatever you need to do so. But for Golden Wick I have a different task."

When Yvonne heard the name of her old guild, she and her old guild mates broke into smiles filled with nostalgia. Among the Saints the ones I valued the most were naturally the original twelve of Golden Wick.

They were the first Saints to fight for me, and the first to ascend to Phantoms. Since then they have been at the forefront of every battle. Jo, Robyn, and Joshua trained them severely in turns.
