Limitless The Strongest Revenant

Chapter 296: I don't know [1/2]



Once again imitating a pancake, I felt my body being smashed to the ground. A split second later, the lights went out and I saw an interesting scene. Zachary Lynch was reading what looked like a pocket paperback.

And all seven of my girls were sleeping in rather uncomfortable positions.

As someone who had personally tried to duel the Nightmare, I could understand. The lines between illusion and reality became blurred when you had to deal with this fucker. The Siren's had uncomfortable expressions, but none of them were injured.

Zach, noticing my arrival, stood up as he put down his book.

"Did you get your answer, bastard?"

"I did. Zach, may I ask what your reason is? Why do you fight?"

The man in front of me adjusted his glasses as he looked at me in silence.

"I fight so that someone will keep David company."

"I see. Thank you for telling me."

So his reason was tied to David, whether it was brotherly loyalty, affection, or responsibility, I didn't care. What struck me was that Zach's reason was tied to a Revenant. That meant that until David died, the Nightmare would never lose his reason.

It was kind of romantic in a way. Between lovers or brothers or family. But the moment those bonds were broken, you got people like Xander.

"I'm surprised you didn't attack me for touching your precious harem bastard. What happened to your fangs?"

"Give me a break Zach, I just got back from fighting two Specters. I don't want to fight another one if I can help it."

"I see, are they well?"

Hearing the warmth in Zach's voice, it seemed he knew which Specters I was referring to.

"I suppose? They seemed alive, at least."

"Is that so? That's probably for the best."

Zach headed for the door. Before he left, however, he turned back and gave me a warning.

"Bastard. Your harem is fucking crazy. I had to sedate them because almost all of them tried to kill themselves. Three of them even tried to use {Soul Breaker}, for fuck's sake! Put a baby in them so they have something else to live for!"

Hearing his words, I couldn't help but chuckle in response.

"I will. Thank you Zach. For everything."

"..." The Nightmare made a surprised face at my words. Then he scoffed and promptly left.

For the moment, only my harem and I remained in the room. I invoked death resonance.

{My beloved kindred, the women who own my heart. Please awaken. I have returned.}

My words caused the Sirens to all rouse from their slumber. The moment they awoke, two figures immediately ran towards me.

"DAAARRRRLLIIIIINNNGGG!!!" cried my beautiful Italian. She threw herself into my arms and sobbed loudly.

Another figure was not as loud but curled up in my embrace. Her whispers were soft, but the emotion they radiated bliss.

"Possum. Possum. Possum."

I hugged them both and kissed their heads.

"I'm back, Jo. Robyn."

A little later, a voluptuous woman threw herself on top of us. Jo quickly made room and allowed Bella to nestle into my chest.

She pounded her fist into my chest like a child throwing a tantrum.

"BASTARD! FUCKER! ASSHOLE! I am so glad. Sniff. I'm so glad you're okay..."

Tears and curses came out of her, but I knew how relieved she was at my return.

A few more figures came forward.

"Husband, you are in big trouble." Jas declared, holding back tears.

"Darling, I demand to be compensated for this." Lilly remarked with teary eyes.

"Anata. Please don't leave me behind..." Aki said crest fallen.

I could only smile at the girls' words. The last Siren stomped towards me and picked me up by the collar like a doll. Liv then delivered a powerful punch to my left cheek.

Knowing this was my punishment, I took the hit without {Withstand} and {Endure}. Surprised to see my face turning purple from the blow, Liv bit her lip before shouting.

"My love, how could you suddenly vanish like that?! We didn't know where you were! My heart. It hurts. When I thought you were gone, even breathing felt like pure torture! This is all your fault!

"WHAT AM I GOING TO DO WITH THIS PAIN?! HOW WILL I SURVIVE WITHOUT YOU NOW?!"

The rest of the Sirens remained silent, as if in solidarity with Liv's words. I knew this was the natural consequence of falling in love. I smiled at the angry northerner and gently clasped her hands.

"Liv, my love. I am sorry. Your man is not very smart. I don't know the answer to your questions. But I do know that I am the same. If something happened to you or the Sirens, I would go crazy.

I never wanted to do this on purpose, please believe me."

The Northerner lowered me to the ground as tears streamed down her cheeks.

"I was so afraid, my love. More than when the Dead broke through the North. I..."

Not willing to let her continue, I pulled her to me and forced her lips to mine. With my kiss, I showered my Northerner with affection. When we parted, her eyes had a dreamy expression, as if she was intoxicated.

I then beckoned to the other Sirens. Without a word they all similarly ran into my arms. While there was much to discuss, I allowed my girls to vent their frustrations. Everyone was crying. So I pampered them in response.

While I was sure they were all curious as to where I had disappeared to, none of them asked. It was as if they had no intention to think about such things now, their only desire was to hear words of love from me.

Like cats and dogs craving attention, the girls continued to behave like spoiled children. They were in constant need of kisses and hugs.

Some demanded to be carried like princesses or to be told words of love. I didn't mind, as I enjoyed flirting with my women anyway.

After about an hour, the Sirens and I just stayed glued to each other. As if to make sure I was still there, they all held me in their arms. They asked me for all sorts of promises and favors in return for my worrying them.

As I sat on the floor, Lilly and Liv held both of my hands in theirs.

Bella and Jasmine hugged me from left and right.

Robyn, sat on my lap as usual.

Aki hugged me from behind. Our hearts resonated as her arms wrapped around my neck.

Jo, for some reason, snuggled up to my right leg as she closed her eyes.

I literally could not get up even if I wanted to.

Feeling horrible for what the girls had just been through, I said nothing, and just did my best to grant their wishes. I understood their fear and pain. If one of the Sirens suddenly disappeared, I knew I would be just as upset.

Zach said most of them tried to kill themselves while fighting him. The descendants in this group were Jo, Jas, Aki, and Liv. And three of them used {Soul Breaker}, whether it was because they wanted to win or because they wanted to die was hard to tell.

If it were up to me, I would forbid them from using it. But I don't think I have the right to make such a request, since I couldn't even promise that something like today would never happen again.
