Limitless The Strongest Revenant

A 7mm Remington magnum had 4,309 joules of energy and traveled at 2,860 ft/s. That was almost a third of a tank round in raw power! This penetrating capability allowed the 7mm to accurately hit targets up to 1000 yards away.

When the Fortification Reapers saw their last shield destroyed, their expressions were somber. Terence bowed his head in shame as he wailed.

"My lord, forgive me, that was the best shield we had. It was made from E-class monster materials that we managed to scrape together. I promise, if we get better materials, we can make something better!"

'Ho? Even E-class materials were that good? Then with proper smithing techniques, we can make fortifications out of what we kill. Still. If it was possible to improve food and give it {Eat}, maybe I can do the same with {Withstand}?'

I slowly walked over to the last shield and asked the Reaper to give it to me.

With a crestfallen expression, the man handed me the defensive armament.

I closed my eyes and gently touched it as I spoke to my {Fates}.

'Guys, do you think you can grant this material {Withstand}, {Endure}, and {Carry}? But I want the buffs to be permanent. Something like mithril from western fantasy.'

My soulgem burned and gave me a brand new {Kismet}, similar to {Comfort Food}, but for shields and walls.

"{Tempering}."

When I opened my eyes, I noticed that the shield had changed. The hole I made with the 7mm Remington Magnum was gone. Originally white, the shield had turned pitch black with my invocation.

Several whispers began to echo as the peanut gallery commented.

"Limitless is a production reaper?"

"What the fuck are you talking about, he's been a Death Seeker since the beginning."

"But he modified the shield with a soul! Isn't that what a Production Reaper is?"

Ho? So that was why Terence called himself a true craftsman. If simply casting {Fates} on items was enough to be called a Production Reaper, then I would agree. Obviously, those who could also wield a hammer and a forge were more authentic.

I threw the shield as Liv before asking. "My love, do you trust me?"

"Yes."

"Turn off {Withstand}, {Endure}, {Carry}, and {Pack}."

"Yes, love," Liv replied without a shred of hesitation.

Seeing the smile on my Northerner's face, I brought the BLR 81 to bear and shot her.

Like a trained shield maiden, Liv brought the shield over her body and rested it on her right shoulder. A loud popping sounded as the powerful 7mm Remington Magnum bounced off the metal surface.

"Darling, please run further out," I pleaded.

Wordlessly, she moved away from me, hiding her body in the shield. I kept firing at the shield, but instead of being pierced, the bullets kept bouncing off Liv.

"[Inventory] F90s"

Aiming at the SL40 grenade launchers, I fired two 40mm rounds at Liv. 40mm were actually armed by spin cycles. This meant that unless they were fired from a rifled barrel, they would not fire no matter how much you smashed them.

The only way I could get around this was to use [Double Damage] on the bullet. Since it stored kinetic energy as heat, the combo skill was enough to ignite the 40mm HEDP even at close range.

Liv hid behind the shield as the explosions engulfed it. Reloading, I fired four more rounds for a total of six. I then dropped the F90 and called for the finale.

"[Inventory] FT5."

With a 95mm warhead, I fired it at Liv. A much louder explosion erupted, causing a blast of wind and heat to spread from her position.

"Dude! What the hell?! Limitless is shooting his own women! Let's get out of here!"

"LET'S BOLT!"

I threw the FT5 as I ran towards Liv. I raised my hand as I called out the combo skill "[Absorb]".

Like a vacuum cleaner, my hand sucked up all the fire and smoke until I could see the figure of my Northerner. When she noticed the lack of fire, Liv lowered her shield and turned to face me.

I quickly ran to her and checked her for signs of wounds or burns.

"Liv, are you hurt? Even though I knew you would be fine, I still worry."

"Fufu, my love, you are so adorable at moments like this. I am fine. Your shield protected me. Looks like you made something crazy again."

The Fortification Reapers all crowded around Liv and me in awe. Terence, who couldn't contain his curiosity, asked eagerly.

"My lord! What was that? I had heard that some Productions Reapers could reinforce materials, but it took months to make them. Or the materials were so heavy that they had to be cut into pieces first! This new material is amazing!

I asked Liv for the shield and handed it to Terence, who looked like a child at Christmas. The other blacksmiths also began to feel and examine the shield.

"How is it so light?!" "Wood is practically heavier than this!" "The missiles before were similar to {Fate} magic, right! And it withstood them all!" "Amazing! And it took less than a minute to make! What the hell is this?"

Surprisingly, even the scholars wanted to examine it. Terence and Van started going back and forth about who should have priority over the shield. I didn't really give a shit, so I threw the shield to Phillip and asked him to settle the matter.

Liv and I left them and headed for the other Sirens. Lilly commented angrily in a sharp tone.

" Dear, I can't believe you. You are doing too many impossible things at once! As if {Comfort Food} was not enough! Now you want to create new materials?"

"I'm sorry, dear, my curiosity got the better of me," I apologized.

While the other Sirens scolded me, I noticed that Aki had already returned and was talking to Eva. When my Japanese lover saw my gaze, she immediately ended her conversation and walked over to me.

"Shujin, I have returned."

"Thank you Kamisan, did you learn anything?"

"Yes. The Minotaur Shapeshifter was brainwashed. I also checked the mist shapeshifters, and they have the same symptoms. The moment they were captured, they forgot everything. The last memory they have is over three months ago."

"So it is a dead end. I will work with the Admin boys to investigate," Bella commented irritably.

"Don't worry, everyone! We have bigger fish to fry. The next time someone comes, we can just shoot them again! Right, Darling?"

Feeling lighter due to Jo's cheerful personality, I nodded with a smile. Robyn then looked at Aki as she asked.

"Did something good happen with the food guys Aki? Were you going for a barbie by any chance?"

"No Rhiannon, I asked Baker-san if she would be interested in joining Master's group permanently as part of my squad."

"Fuck me dead! Everyone is forming squads too fast!"

Out of curiosity, I wondered why Aki would want the soup kitchen people. I understood Eva Baker and her husband, but the rest were shit. Probably sensing my questions, Aki smiled a little as she explained.

"I got the idea from you, Anata. Instead of looking for athletes, I can just raise them with {Eat} and {Comfort Food}. I am confident that I can create a powerful force once I find people with strong wills."

"I see, that makes sense. What will you call them?"

"They will be known as Inari's Kitchen. I will make them our assassination and counter espionage unit."

"My goodness. I feel like the competition for Dear's praise is reaching insane levels," Lilly complained.
