Limitless The Strongest Revenant-Chapter 1016: Heroine - : One down [1/2]

Chapter POV: Isabella Benelli-Smith

"Fuck! Is this fucking bastard a cockroach? We have literally been dropping the sky on him! How is he not dead? He is as ridiculous as Honey!" I complained in anger.

"I would have to agree. But given that he is also a Successor, I guess it can only be expected. Beloved similarly would not die from attacks by mere meteors."

"Ara. Correct your words, Liv. Compared to Shujin, this unscrupulous bastard is nothing but a fool! But we were able to get an idea of three of his {Fates}. That means he should be in the period of Wrath," Aki added.

I felt a pulse of souls beside me. An orange {Portal} opened up. Out of it came Jas and Jo.

Jo had on her shoulder what looked like half a female corpse. I say half as the body no longer had arms and legs. The spots where her limbs were supposed to be connected were charred and appeared to be sutured. Her head was bleeding from multiple places.

Due to {Limitless}, my enhanced hearing could still sense that the woman Jo carried was still alive. The nutjob was covered in blood. And, Jas, a poison specialist, was with her. So, the woman they brought must have experienced hell.

I gulped, thanking Honey that these two monsters were on my side. I tried to hide my disgust as I asked.

"You two get anything useful out her?"

Jo then frowned as she shook her head. Her expressions reminded me of caricatures. Her every action was graceful and exaggerated. It was cute. That was only if you could forget how deranged this bitch was.

"Nah, we didn't. I tried every trick in the book. I started with her nails, then her fingers, toes, and then her teeth. Even with her arms and legs. She must really know nothing. Even {Thrall} came back with nothing," she replied.

"Why didn't you just start with {Thrall}? This woman is a Wraith; even just [Whisper] would work. Why bother torturing her?" I asked in confusion.

"Ah, you're right. But I wanted her to suffer. So that when she meets her Successor, the fucker would know what I have in store for him. Hehehe!"

"Jo, stop it with your pointless antics. We should just bury her somewhere; she won't die anyway. If you really want her to experience hell, you should have put her in a prison full of serial rapists naked," Aki countered.

"OH! That's a great idea! I will even shave her and give her makeup and perfume, so they destroy her holes without mercy! I wanted to butcher her family in front of her, but they are all in Europe."

"…"

Listening to these two reminded me of Zanele's lecture. The Sins of Envy and Gluttony were second only to the Sin of Wrath in aggressive tendencies. I exhaled silently as I marveled at how Honey could love such batshit insane people.

I looked at Jas and hoped she had something better. "And you?"

"She came to this continent to meet Ethan Reed. They were supposed to meet tomorrow. He kills her afterward. She carries the Sin of Envy. But no matter what we did, she does not know of her legacy. Not even her past name."

Hearing Jas casually talk of altering the future, I sighed in frustration again. Normally, one would have to be careful about the shit she did on the fly. The butterfly effect was a real thing. But to this ass-heavy sadist, only Honey mattered.

'Not that I can fault her for thinking that way; I probably would do the same thing.'

"I had Jo spare her. If this woman dies, the legacy of Envy will just find a new host. Let's keep her here for the foreseeable future. What about your side? Aki, have the preparations for the assassinations been finalized?"

"Yes, Bella and I narrowed the list down. We have chosen 27 princes. For the sake of speed, we will be ignoring those that would take effort to kill. We can kill twenty-three quickly. The remaining four are from rival factions.

"We will fabricate evidence that makes them believe the other faction did it. Of the 50 princes remaining, 10 are toddlers protected by Specters. 15 are those who are neutral. If you take out the six already part of Shujin's faction, that leaves 19."

Hearing the plan I contributed to, I felt conflicted. Despite my insistence that I was not a bad person; I intended to kill even the 10 princes who were still in diapers. And none of the Sirens condemned me. In fact, they all wanted to do the same thing.

I clenched my teeth and continued for Aki.

"Of the 19 remaining, 10 belong to the conservatives and 9 to the reformists. Combined, there are 9 Specters between them. The princes who will lead the ENSAE army are all part of the reformists. Rather than risk getting tied up with them, we will use their half-siblings.

"There are four among the 19 that love their half-siblings on their mothers' side dearly. We will massacre these entire families. This will cause them to seek revenge. We will then let the two groups fight it out while Amari moves to absorb the remaining 15."

As we planned out the details, Aki's tactics were downright evil. They were war crimes. I no longer had any doubt that she had indeed massacred her entire clan. Her plans included bombing people in their sleep, burying them alive in avalanches, and poisoning their water and food.

The stuff she came up with was truly nefarious. And the clincher was that you could see how even reapers would die from her plots. After we gave her the princes' locations, she took thirty minutes to draft a plan to wipe them out. Only you had to add a million people who would die as collateral. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

'If this woman wanted to cause chaos, she could. With her abilities, she could start a world war in under a week,' I lamented inwardly.

"WOW! Nice job, Aki! That's so great! How about we kidnap the toddlers using Lilly's abilities? If we send Roach and Juno as bait, the Specters should leave them to weaker guards! We can add them to the chaos so even more die!" Jo chirped with a clap.

Just then another {Portal} opened.

Lilly and Robyn came out. The princess walked out bored. Robyn, on the other hand, was dragging a woman by her foot. The said woman was in the nude and in an extremely pitiful state. Severe bruising, as if she had been run over by a bus, was the easiest to spot.

She also no longer had ears, teeth, and her head was bleeding. But it wasn't from getting beaten, though. It was as if her entire scalp had been ripped off her head. Her fingers and toes were all bent in the wrong directions. She also smelled of burnt rubber, an ozone-like scent.

The woman's pupils rolled back to her skull. It seems Lilly overdid it with the electrocution. Really, when it came to Honey's safety, these insane girls all had little to no restraint. I found it hard to determine who brought in the more pitiful person.

"Welcome back, sisters. Did you find anything of value from this woman?"

"Ask the pervert. I told her I had it under control. But when she heard this sheila was the Sin of Gluttony, she had to light the cunt up like a Christmas tree. I'm not even sure if she is alive. {Restore} rounds didn't work."
