Limitless The Strongest Revenant

Chapter 627: Fighting against your nature [2/2]



"Nyda, we are going to save your sister. Whether that means putting her down or bringing her back, I still do not know. But if it is possible to save her, I will. If it isn't, I will be the one to end her suffering." Read new adventures at My Virtual Library Empire

"Thank you, my lord,...I will return this favor," she cried as she kissed the back of my hand.

Then I remembered how emotional this woman was. I recalled that she had over a million souls, which would make it easier for her soul to collapse. But before I could wonder, I heard Lilly reassure me.

'Dearest. While you were comforting the Anvil team, I took some mass-produced benevols from Cynthia and Addison and gave them to our currenty party. I also gave the Adventurers {Rewind} so the benevols do not get wasted.

'Exa confirmed that {Kill Switch} is part of the download for {Call My Name}, so even though they have {Rewind}, our fail-safes are in place,' she added via our link

Feeling immense pride and appreciation for my princess's foresight, I looked at her as I spoke words of praise through our {Kindred} link.

'Lilly, you are such an intelligent and beautiful woman. I am so lucky to have you by my side. I must have saved the world in my past life to be able to marry you. Please never leave me. I will even lick your toes if I have to.'

The woman pulled down her cap in embarrasement and struck a smug pose.

'Fufu. Dearest, considering you and your foot fetish, licking my feet is not even humiliating for you. Wouldn't you consider it a reward? All kidding aside, all this is nothing compared to the pleasure you give me. I am your queen. My purpose and only desire in life is to love you and see you succeed.

Indulge me more if you feel grateful to me.'

'I will. I am down by four girls, so you three will have to suffer my libido for the foreseeable future.'

Unable to suppress her laughter, Lilly's melodious voice filled the air, "Hahaha. I see. I am looking forward to it, Dear."

Ignoring the gloating American, Liv and Jas both approached me with sad faces. I knew it was not an act, for their links were shrouded in negative emotions such as disappointment and self-loathing.

'My love, please forgive me. Lilly is right. I knew best how it felt to put my virtue down because I lacked the power. It's just that your love and support allowed me to follow my convictions for the first time in my life. I-I became arrogant. I told you before that I would commit any atrocity if you were at stake.

That is still true. Forget what I said before. I will personally behead Evelyn should the need arise.'

'Husband, I am sorry. I didn't mean to disrespect your will. You are the man I adore and cherish. I was afraid. Although we thought we had become powerful, Gaspar didn't even retaliate. It was as if we were like ants in his eyes.

The thought of facing such beings with only us is frightening. What if someone dies? What if I cannot save everyone? What if I make a mistake?'

Hearing the concerns of the two, I grabbed my Northern and African lovers by their waists. Pulling them close, I felt the softness and warmth of their bodies.

It was hard to believe that we were of the same species. How could my girls be so stunningly beautiful? Comparing them to me was like night and day.

Feeling the admiration and lust rising from my link. Both Liv and Jas pinched my arms.

'Husband, you can have your way with me later. We are talking now...'

'Beloved, please focus. I will fulfill all you desire as soon as this is cleared up.'

Annoyed, I sighed deeply before placing my hands on their cheeks.

Seeing the emotions wreaking havoc in their minds, I calmed them down before speaking. I sent love and understanding to both of them as I looked into their eyes.

'You two are too serious. There is nothing to forgive. Liv, my power is for your sake. Follow your beliefs as much as you want, I will take care of everything else. If I really did not want your opinion, I would have told you so. You are my {Kindred}, you are my guiding light, just being yourself is enough.

That was why I fell for you in the first place.

'Jas, I was the one who asked you to come here. The responsibility is mine. The {Rewind} family will defend us. I am grateful for your desire to protect everyone. But that is my job as the man of our house. Please do not take that away from me.

And we are in this together. We are going to figure this out as a family. You do not have to burden yourself with all of this.'

"Beloved, I-I"

"Husband, why are you so..."

Unwilling to let them remain lost, I gave them both a brief but passionate kiss.

"Beloved, Wifey, I know you are all fighting against your natures for my sake. I do not blame you, nor am I disappointed in you. I am grateful. I forgive you both. Drop this matter here, understood?"

"Yes." X2

Like teenagers in love, my girls threw themselves into my embrace. To be honest, I didn't even mind their discussion, but each of my girls were not drones.

They had their own feelings, opinions, and views. These personalities were the reason they were both making a mountain out of a molehill.

Liv probably felt guilty. If I followed her decision and suffered losses, it would be because of her stubbornness to save Evelyn. And her morals prevented her from saying that we should just abandon Nyda's sister.

Jas, on the other hand, was ashamed that her fear overcame her trust. Unlike when her life was at stake, Jas could not tolerate playing with ours. So, contrary to my words, she would not even try to fulfill our mission. The risks were not worth the potential losses.

Upon closer inspection, the reason Liv felt guilt and the reason Jas felt shame was because of their love for me.

How could I be angry with them if that was the case? Rather, if Liv did not care about me, her morals would trump our safety. Jas, on the other hand, would just up and leave.

Their love for me became the reason why they fought against their natural instincts. Such things showed how much these two adored me. More than a hundred confessions and a thousand kisses. To change your entire mind or will for another was true love, it was to deny yourself in favor of someone else.

With both Jas and Liv appeased, I raised my hand to call to the Siren who was not yet in my arms. As I beckoned to her, Lilly ran forward and jumped without a care in the world.

I caught her and spun her around. Her cheerful giggles and smile seemed out of place in the current circumstances, but Lilly Browning didn't care about such things.

Like the other two, Lilly could have just let Liv and Jas fight it out. In the European aristocracy, such heinous acts were the norm.It was what King used to keep the factions in check. But the Untamed also denied her instincts because she knew I wanted everyone to get along.

Rather than show the world that she was superior, she was fine with being number two so long as I was number one. For someone as arrogant as she was, what could that be but love?

I knew that the more situations I encountered, the more my relationship with the Sirens would be tested.

It was easy to be in love when everything was going well. But true relationships were not strong because they never fought. They were strong because they argued, fought over differences, and yet remained committed to each other. In the same way, this would be the reason why people would hold on.

Such emotions would be what pushed the Reapers forward. Like how Nyda risked everything for Evelyn. Like how Leo accompanied his wife, even though he would gain nothing.

If there was anything I believed had more power than death and despair, it was love, hope, and faith.
