Limitless The Strongest Revenant-Chapter 1002: A really long time [1/2]

Within a second, the Vithriss appeared by my side with a tense expression.

"I have arrived, my lord. What would you ask of me?"

Nodding, I asked her a question, "Are you busy at the moment?"

"I was only coordinating with Lady Liv via technopathy. Do you have something else you need of me, my lord?"

"I see. If it's from Liv, then that is fine. Do you have a second-in-command among the Awakened?"

A couple of loud footsteps echoed. The earth vibrated violently under me due to the one who had just arrived.

"Limitless, you seem like you're having some fun. Let me play."

Unable to control myself, I turned toward him as I released death resonance.

"…"

"…"

Seeing my reaction, the hulking lizard hunched his shoulders and took a step to the side.

"If you need my wife to do something, I can do it. I'm not much for talking," he said sheepishly.

"That works. Take over Sabel's post. Guard the African Reapers. If any one of them makes a sound or moves a muscle, kill them on the spot."

Roach, the Awakened, asked with a glint of excitement in his eyes, "Really? I can kill them? What if they all make a move?"

"Kill them all," I said in a clear and powerful voice.

"Hehehe. Great! I can do that! What do I get in return?"

The greed in Roach's eyes could be more apparent. He stared at the massive boulder-sized spiked mace I had on my shoulder. The lizard even licked its lips lecherously as if he wanted to make love to it.

I raised the Faker Morningstar and answered, "I will make you one of these."

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! DEAL! I WILL DO IT!"

Roach's large, muscular tail began slamming on the ground like a jackhammer. If you measured his excitement by the number of times it flailed about, Roach was beyond excited. He then turned toward the African prisoners and leapt up with all his might.

A large, deep crater formed from his launch point. It then got scooped up by the power of his jump. A few seconds later, a mighty crash echoed all the way to where I was. The distance was over a mile. He then brought out his guns as he roared.

"I NEED A NEW WEAPON! MOVE, YOU FUCKERS! I DON'T CARE WHO!"

Before slamming his leg so hard on the ground, a large portion of the earth around him fissured like snakes. With such a powerful force, some of the Reapers were thrown off their knees.

"AH! THERE! YOU MOVED! HAHAHAHAHA!"

"Wait! You're the one who made me move!"

"HAHAHA! LIMITLESS DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THAT!" Roach bellowed.

Roach was mad with excitement and hunger for battle. He began to massacre the prostrated African reapers. Due to the power of the Awakened's weapons, a M134D Minigun and the Denel FT5 rocket launcher, it was chaos. Even those who stayed still in the beginning moved.

The entire African army of over 200 Phantoms began to run. It was either due to Roach's attacks or sheer desperation. And against such numbers, even Roach would be hard-pressed. Only he wasn't alone.

A unit of Vithriss suddenly ran into the melee from the right side. One of Roach's wives screamed at the top of her lungs as she pulled out her Faker Rapier, "Awakened! The lord has spoken! Death to all who move! MY SISTERS! KILL THEM ALL! OPEN COMBAT!"

"WAIT! I SURRENDER!" "FORGIVE ME! I DIDN'T MEAN TO MOVE!" "YOU CRAZY MONSTERS!" "RUN! RUN AWAY!" "MERCY!" "I DON'T WANT TO DIE!"

If that was not enough, a unit of women also appeared from the left side. They raised their SCAR-H rifles and opened fire! Their target? Those among the prisoners who tried to run left.

"WOLVES! PATRON WANTS TO PARTY UNDISTURBED! BY LADY VELA'S COMMAND, DO NOT LEAVE A SINGLE ENEMY LEFT BREATHING! WOLVES! OPEN COMBAT!"

As if by some coincidence, Roach, all the Vithriss and Vela's wolves shouted in one voice!

"{IN THE NAME OF LIMITLESS}!"

A one-sided massacre erupted in my name. Despite having superior numbers, those who fought were quickly dispatched by the Vithriss. The Faker weaponry cut flesh and crushed bone. No matter what the Africans shifted into, their soulgems were destroyed.

The larger beasts and a pair of stone golems were demolished by Roach within seconds. The savage Vithriss hunted agility-based soulforms like panthers and cheetahs, and even the wind, like ducks. Within a few minutes, whatever hope the prisoners had all but vanished.

In a separate part of the field, my ears heard the squabbling of the other Africans. Zanele, Amari, Mia, Nandi, and Zinhle formed one group. Opposite them were the clansmen of the four princes. The stuff they were arguing about was the usual.

"Prince Amari, you must reconsider! This is insanity!" "They are murdering our people! This is a plot to destroy Africa from within!" "The sea scum cannot be trusted! We must force them out!" "Yeah! And they must leave behind their weapons!"

But Amari stood his ground and rebuked them.

"The Jaber clan came here to kill. You all were there. I begged Rashid several times to stop. Yet he tried to rape the women of Hellsend. Even more so, he insulted the Kindred of their king. Tell me what the royal family would do if their Matriarch were insulted?"

A deafening silence followed. None could speak out.

"He was warned by the Awakened and the Soulless many times, yet he did not listen. They didn't even thank Hellsend for cleansing Kismayo of the Hellsborn. They attacked those who ended the nightmare! Hellsend performed a duty that was supposed to be theirs!"

"But they destroyed Kismayo too!" "Did you see the tower of vines and stone?" "That was the work of demons!" "Thousands of humans died!"

This time, Zanele herself spoke out in a loud, yet regal voice.

"AND WHOSE FAULT DO YOU THINK THAT IS! Rather than our fellow Africans, the ones who save our people are the sea scum you so detest! Even if we agreed, why aren't you raising your fangs and claws against them yourself? Why ask my son to fight your battles!

"You are all nothing but a bunch of senile cowards! How dare you all blame Hellsend when they have done more for the continent in a day than you have in a decade! Have some shame, you spineless pigs!"

Seeing Zanele acting like her stature was all well and fine, but my interest was elsewhere. A lone woman moved towards Roach but was blocked by five men. Funnily enough, the ones protecting Roach were the ones we saved: Olamide and the other four princes.

"Induna Nomvula, where are you going?"

"Get out of my way, Olamide; as an Induna, I have a duty to protect my people."
