Limitless The Strongest Revenant

After the greetings were over, Amari and Mia placed their fists over their left hearts and struck twice.

"We greet the lord of Hellsend, the esteemed Limitless. Hail." X2

I said nothing and just nodded. I gestured for them to sit down and sat at the head of the table myself. Lilly and Bella sat at my sides. Jas and Aki took the next seats. Jo took a seat for some reason and moved it behind me. Liv and Robyn, seemingly enlightened, imitated her.

No one actually did such a thing, because being behind me would prevent Jo, Liv and Robyn from participating in the discussions. They had {Listen} and {Announce} so it wasn't like the acoustics were going to be a problem, but it looked odd.

Seeing the odd seating arrangement, Amari and Mia started to chuckle as they also sat at the table. Amari took the side across from me while his wife sat to his right.

"You don't seem to have changed much. Except for growing magnitudes in strength. And am I reading this correctly? All seven of you are his {Kindred}?" Amari commented in a deep voice.

"I know, right? Judy, Bonnie, Priscilla, how did you do that? I assumed you held a battle royale to choose a queen or something."

"Nothing, it was all Darling!"

"Mia, how many times have I told you to stop naming people after Zootropolis? And I don't know either. "

"I actually have no idea. But it's Honey, so half the time nothing makes sense."

Just from their light jabs and banter, I could tell that at least three of my girls trusted this couple. It had been three weeks since the enlistment. I had barely exchanged words with either Amari or Mia. I quickly tried to summarize what I remembered about them.

1. Amari Soldat was from the African Battlefront, and his {Fate} was called {Primate}, which grants a soul form. He turned into Kingkong.

2. Mia Flair was from Glasgow, Great Britain. Her {Fate} was called {Lycan} and she turned into a purple werewolf.

3. Amari was a bastard who used brutal methods to achieve his goal. Red and his group worked under his orders.

4. The two almost died trying to get the achievement during the enlistment.

5. Both promised to help me for saving them from the Brute and the Stalker.

6. That debt was paid when Bella used them to help smuggle Jo and Jas out of Europe.

7. The two were very much in love and called each other pet names. Choco and Fluffy, if I remembered correctly.

Remembering that Clive Zanardi was after my girls made me nervous, and as if that wasn't enough, Africa was one of the three continents that was coming for me.

Both Amari and Mia smiled wryly as they looked at me. As if trying to break the ice, they kept trying to make small talk.

"Choco and I actually bet on your pot. I'm glad you won! My heart was pounding when a greater demon suddenly appeared."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Even though it was brought down by Specters, the fact that you all didn't run away was commendable. As expected from the lunatic in my enlistment."

"..."

I remained silent. Then Mia looked awkwardly at the other girls and greeted them as well.

"I didn't get a chance to talk to everyone else, but I'm glad you're okay. Princess Lilly, I was so surprised when you turned out to be Formless! The European Descendants were in an uproar. At the time, I thought you were crazy..."

"However, her decision seemed to have been made with careful calculations. It was wise to jump ship and join Hellsend instead," Amari praised while nodding.

A loud thud echoed in front of them. Lilly pounded her fist on the table in anger.

"You are guests of my {Kindred}, so I have tried to maintain proper decorum. But you do well to hold your tongue. My Dearest and I are not mere guards you might meet anywhere. You are here as a representatives, addressing a Head of State. Gossiping about other people's lives in a formal setting is considered both ill-mannered and appalling."

'Dearest, now would be a good time to exercise your authority. You are a king. Power plays like this are a given. You must not give them the impression that any of us have any influence over your decision.'

'But you do. If you girls ask me to do something, I will do my best to do it.'

'I know, dear. And that is why I love you so much. But such a weakness will allow others to cause dissension in your circle. They will think that if they can gain the favor of the right Siren, they can control you through her.'

'What should I do then?'

'Arrogantly chastise me for overstepping and insult me in front of them,' Lilly replied.

'Tsk, that seems like a pain in the ass,' I replied irritated.

'Lilly is right though, Darling. Europe is old. Like older than dinosaurs old. They have all these archaic customs and rules that you have to navigate around. And as anyone who matters knows a powerful Specter. We have to be careful.'

'Husband. These two are prodding you right now. They are checking out the power dynamics of our group. If there is a chance for them to break us up, they will do it. It's a common tactic in the Middle Ages. Forcing divisions between the royalty and the nobility.'

'If they see a weakness, they will try to capitalize on it. Most countries forced the nobility to have harems not because they thought the king deserved a one. They did so because the queens, consorts, and mistresses became tools to control the king. Honey, you have seven of us. From their point of view, it would be the perfect setup to exploit.'

'Shujin, it doesn't matter what part of the world it is. Women are used to tame men. And even though you are very fond of us, this must remain a secret to everyone outside of Hellsend. In order for you to be respected, you must exert your dominance.'

Somehow, I disliked hearing that I had to insult or be rude to my girls. Why do I have to make horrible memories with my harem for these sick fucks? I had to lie and be a bastard to the women I love the most to please other people? Yeah, fuck that. Enjoy new chapters from empire

If a Revenant or a greater demon could force me to do shit, what the hell did these politician bastards expect? I bow to no one!

'My love, please bear with it for now. Please do what Lilly asks. It would be better if you also reprimand Jo, Jas and Bella for being too friendly with them. The girls are right, this has happened in my family as well. Such are the burdens of royalty.'

'Possum, I know you won't believe me because I'm stupid and all, but I agree with the Sirens. You may not like it now, but it will be easier for all of us. And we know the truth anyway. So what if the world thinks otherwise, yeah?'

An unpleasant feeling wrapped itself around my heart. I could not understand this shit. I live and fight for the Sirens. But I was protecting them by humiliating them in public?

And because of the Specters of Europe, I had to pretend I didn't love my harem? Who the hell died and made these fucking bastards king?

Unconsciously, more and more death resonance leaked out of me. I couldn't control my face as it twisted with rage. The girls were right. As I moved to the international stage, it was inevitable that I needed to become more politically correct. It was in my best interest.
