Limitless The Strongest Revenant

"I am a multi-millionaire at this point, my lord. And I am still on the clock. As soon as my shift is over, I will go to Deathfall and put every last soul I have into your pot."

Shocked by his declaration, I almost fell out of my seat. Phillip made a stern face as he looked at me without a trace of humor.

"You. You're serious. Aren't you?"

"I meant what I said, my lord. I began my journey with you with only 300 souls. I will never forget how you saved my life. If you survive tomorrow, I intend to follow you forever," he vowed.

Phillip Scrivener was a greedy bastard. Cunning and manipulative, I will never forget what he told me on my first night in Hellsgate.

"Every generation has its heroes and I know you are the one for these dire times Mr. Smith, I would be more than willing to stake my life on it."

Overwhelmed by his words, I remained silent. Yvonne suddenly struck a triumphant pose as she exclaimed.

"Of course I am the same Patron! Vela's wolves plan to bet everything on you! Aisha is already placing the bets as we speak!"

"Then you would be broke if we lose, right?" I countered.

"My lord, the odds of you dying to anything less than a Revenant are impossible. The members of the original 2nd Amendment are also willing to risk everything. Much like Phillip, we will follow you," Joshua added

"I..."

"I speak for Minerva's Wizards as well, my lord. We have already bet every soul we have on you," Van Micron added smugly.

"If the wizards' bastards do, what of us, my lord! We are Freyja's bulwark! And she is the shield of Limitless!" Terence shouted as if he was on a mountain far away.

I couldn't even say anything as even Tildi and Wil followed suit. It was one thing to help people, but to suddenly receive such loyalty left me speechless. At this point, I didn't even care if their reasons were self-serving.

While it was true that I would not back down in the Seeker War, I was still very scared. I mean, fucking hell. Almost everyone I knew said it was a bad idea, even Specters came out of the woodwork to warn me.

It would have been better to know about the war and just get through it. But this fucking long ass wait was torture on my nerves. Whenever I was out of the fight, my mind kept going back to whether I had made the right choice.

The only times I really felt peace were when I was with the Sirens or my adopted family. To suddenly hear that many people truly wanted me to win made me feel grateful.

Desperately holding back tears, I nodded and made a promise to everyone.

"Thank you. I will remember these words forever. After today, you are all my people."

Everyone was in a joyous mood as they cheered at my words. When I asked why, Warren was the one who explained.

"Nigga, you probably forgot, but a lot of people saw the carnage you and the Sirens did to the rogues. Word was that if you touched one of Limitless' people, he would kill you and your entire family."

Claire then added as she hugged the African-American.

"Boo is right, Patron! The same stories have been amplified as news of Vela's wolves has spread throughout the Saint community. In fact, we received messages from numerous Saints of the Production Guild asking if they were true."

While I was very pleased with their news, one word caught my attention.

"Boo?"

Claire blushed as she buried her face in Warren's clothes. The former adventurer then smiled sheepishly as he hugged Claire tighter.

"Uhm. It kind of happened? I didn't think such a fine woman would return my feelings, but I got lucky. I must have saved the world in my past life or something," Warren declared proudly.

"Luck had nothing to do with it, patron. Boo is incredibly kind and extremely gentle. I am very fortunate to have received his affection," the woman added with a heartwarming smile.

Wow, watching that couple gave me diabetes. Claire was not someone who trusted easily. And Warren was not only dependable, but fiercely protective of his own.

I smiled as I wished them happiness.

"Congratulations, I am very happy for both of you. Please take care of each other. Warren. I think of Claire as my younger sister. If you break her heart, I will break your legs."

Warren's eyes grew wide as he complained. "Again? What the hell is wrong with all of you? You are the third person to say that to me!"

"Hehehe. Please forgive my man, Patron. Sister Angela and Lady Vela said the same thing. Boo, you better be careful. If you cheat on me, the people who will come after you are really scary!"

After a few more laughs, the department heads and I moved toward the Deathfall building. It had a big ass sign mounted on its roof, but unfortunately, even after everything, the sign still said the following.

[Limitless Seeker War Live Tally. Betting closes in 15 minutes]

[Limitless: 53.2 M | Savior: 124 M]

[Time until Battle Harem joins the war: 19 hours, 40 minutes, 3 seconds].

"..."

The whole place had a somber atmosphere. My girls had dark expressions as they stared at the amounts.

It was less than fifteen minutes before the betting closed. So it was understandable. Even though we had pooled all our resources, it still wasn't nearly enough.

Exa told me that of the 53.2 million, 10 came from Lilly, 7 from Aki, 9.6 from the Sirens, 3 from Hellsend and 5 from Phillip.

But before we could despair, a large group of people teleported in. They were all wearing gaudy robes that looked like they were desperately trying to look rich. There were about forty of them.

Not understanding what was going on, someone from the peanut gallery commented.

"Hey, aren't those the Limit Royalty bastards?"

Their leader strode towards the Deathfall building as he boasted.

"Hmph! Limitless is the god of gamblers in the flesh! We of the Limit Royalty know him best!"

'You have got to be shitting me,' I commented inwardly.

[Limitless Seeker War. Live Tally. Limitless: 65 M | Savior 124 M]

[Time until Battle Harem joins the war: 16 hours, 23 minutes, 20 seconds].

Everyone cheered as they saw the numbers updated. A wave of teleportation circles erupted amidst the cheering.

One group had five people, the other ten. Both groups hurried toward the Deathfall reception desk.

The one leading the five was a gorgeous beauty with white hair. Recognizing her, I called out.

"Isolde?!"

The woman saw me and smiled. She made her way to me while the members of her group continued on to the Deathfall building.

"AMI! Long time no see!" she greeted me with an elegant smile.

"Hello Isolde. Why are you here?"

"To bet on my friend, of course! Naturally, I brought others! Ones with deep purses!"

[Limitless Seeker War. Live Tally. Limitless: 85 M | Savior 124 M].

[Time until Battle Harem joins the war: 10 hours, 50 minutes, 1 second].

Before I could thank her, the numbers updated again.

[Limitless Seeker War. Live Tally. Limitless: 90 M | Savior 124 M].

[Time until Battle Harem joins the war: 9 hours, 26 minutes, 40 seconds].

A warm voice greeted him.

"Smith John, I greet the divine in you."

"Krishna?!"

"I have come to help how I can, my brother. My allies and I stand with you."

Just then a loud cry came from someone.

"EVERYONE! LOOK IT UPDATED AGAIN!"

[Limitless Seeker War. Live Tally. Limitless: 122 M | Savior 124 M].

[Time until Battle Harem joins the war: 0 hours, 33 minutes, 20 seconds].

Nearly a thousand screams erupted at once. I quickly searched with my eyes and found a fuck boi quickly leaving the scene. Explore new worlds at m,v l'e-m|p y r

"No way! Raymond Gertrude?!"

A whisper in the wind blew softly into my ear as the ghost left.

"The two million is from the Deryck family. I evened the odds since Xander bet on the Savior. Don't waste my 30 million, boy. Show me your resolve."
