Limitless The Strongest Revenant-Chapter 622: Too quiet. [1/2]

If you had told me a month ago that I would soon be driving a Cadillac in Hell, I would have called you crazy. Yet here I was in Hellsgate doing just that.

I had originally planned to ask Hellsend to take us to the warp point. According to Gareth, the warp coordinates for each floor, if not marked, were like elevators. That is, if you went down from a particular set of coordinates, you would arrive at the same place, just on a lower floor.

The only exceptions to this rule were the warps used to travel between Earth and Hellsgate, and the warps in the fallen zones. For the fallen zones specifically, the places where people warp in were intentionally placed at the edges of that zone.

This was done to both protect the mercenary and give them time before starting their mission. Outside of Death Seekers, however, you had to get permission from the manager of the target floor before warping in. Otherwise, the manager had the option of suspending the warp.

Gareth, who knew the managers of the other floors, said that the 30th floor manager had only one point of entry into his domain. And that was in the middle of the courtyard of his castle.

We used the fort on 1245-1 as our base, then I had Hellsend create a defensive perimeter. Said perimeter spanned several zones. The 30th floor warp point was in zone 1304-2. The equivalent floor for us would be 1244-2, which was 2 zones away.

Since each zone was 3,861 square miles, I had to travel 62.13 miles to get from one end to the other. So to get to 1244-2, I had to travel over 124 miles.

While I could use {Portal}, I wanted the girls to rest. And as if by tacit agreement, none of the Sirens wanted to hasten my departure.

However, just as I was about to borrow one of the M1078 LMTVs. Lilly then stepped forward and handed me what looked like a toy car. It was about the size of a Hot Wheels toy.

"Dearest. This is a gift. This toy is your Escalade. It is now, in a sense, a Soularm. I used {Bestow} and granted it {Compact}. You can now shrink it to this size by calling {Compact}.

That way, you would not be burdened with storing it in your [Inventory]."

Extremely pleased with her thoughtfulness, I gave her a kiss before trying it out.

"{Compact}," at my words, my Cadillac Escalade V made its first appearance in Hellsgate.

We were currently traveling to our destination in comfort and luxury. Esca had an extremely nice interior. And the air conditioning and the comfortable seats made it a pleasure to drive.

My current group consisted of Jas, Liv and Lilly, team Hammer. D and Pixie my {Vassals} and finally Leo and Nyda.

It was kind of funny that Leo and Nyda were confused when they saw my car. Their thoughts were written all over their faces. Leo Armstrong looked frustrated while Nyda was positively beaming.

Considering that there were hardly any mounts in Hellsgate, they must have prepared something like the {Cavalry} soulgear for our journey.

After all, one of the great advantages of becoming a horse was that you could put it away whenever you wanted and save on feed and water.

Of course, a horse was only a horse. No matter how good it was, it could never beat a luxury SUV.The four who rode with us couldn’t help but comment happily.

"And here I thought we would have to struggle to become horses again.

Even luggage is no longer a problem! Our lord is amazing!" Nyda Flowers praised.

Her husband agreed as he added. "The best part is that we can conserve our strength this way. Who would have thought it would be possible to drive a luxury vehicle in Hell? It would also shorten the travel time! But I feel like an idiot for choosing to walk all these years."

"If this continues, won’t Limitless completely modernize Hellsgate? I’m half inclined to buy a Skydio. Did you see Connie use it? Technology plus {Fates} makes a fearsome combination!"

Meanwhile, my vassals were enamored with the car itself.

"UWAHHH! D, look at this leather, it feels so nice! And this chair is so soft! Have you ever been in such a nice car back on Earth? Is this what people spend their money on? It is amazing!"

"Yes, this is the life. This car is real classy. Maybe I should get one. We made a lot of money the other night. But I don’t know how to drive..."

"I know! Sister Lucrecia can help us! She said that as fellow {Vassals} it would be good to help each other. I am sure she will teach you! She is so pretty and so nice!"

"Pix, I know they be fellow vassals, but those two are bad news. I feel like they are bad people."

While the four in the back had their own conversations, my girls and I were silent.

Liv and Jas weren’t talkative to begin with. Lilly didn’t say much, she simply clasped my hand in hers. I was not in the best of moods for reasons everyone already knew.

And because of our {Kindred} bond, it was impossible to hide my feelings from them. For one thing, I felt extremely tired.

Keeping it together was probably all I could do at the moment.

The image of the Anvil team crying at my departure was still fresh.

Jo was a blubbering mess, her words incoherent as she kept crying while trying to talk.

Her eyes kept flickering between red and green. Green was the color of Jo’s eyes. Every time they changed to red, it meant that Vela was driving.

After I told her to wait for me. The one who hugged me was Jo, but the one who answered was Vela.

"Darling. Please make sure you come back. It is unfortunate, but such farewells are necessary. I will defend your domain with Jo and the other Sirens, you need only take care of yourself and my sisters."

Jo was usually cheerful and used simple words. In contrast, Vela was cold, authoritative and regal. I nodded at her statement and hugged her. When I kissed her, by the time we parted, Jo was already the one in control.

Just like Jo, Aki sniffled and tried to hold back her tears. My normally mature Kamisan had reverted to an almost childlike personality.

Still, it was probably the most vulnerable I had ever seen her. She continued to act like a supportive spouse, holding her head high while her entire body trembled.

"I will wait. Only because of you, Anata. I will wait. I will protect this place with my life. So please do not die before I do."

Robyn tried to act cool, but she could not stay cool when it was time for me to leave.

"Don’t worry Possum. I-I have everything under control...sniff. I-I can do this. I am your Sheila and {Kindred}, I can handle being left...hick...FUCK THIS CRAP! WAHHHH!!! POSSUMM!

TAKE ME WITH YOU!!!!! DON’T LEAVE ME!!!!! I DON’T WANT TO BE ALONE!!!"

But before I could answer, she reigned in her own emotions. My kitten was doing her absolute best to fulfill my will. To give in and change the plan would spit on her resolve.

Only Bella remained calm. But her eyes were also filled with tears as she tried to focus on the bigger picture.

"Honey, the Code family will make sure that no one invades our land. I will have the Derycks reinforce our numbers and strengthen our defenses. When you return, it will be unlike anything you have ever seen before."

Despite her arrogant attitude, she held her hand behind her back. I saw her do this every time Bella got scared. Still, I just gave her a kiss and said goodbye.
