Limitless The Strongest Revenant-Chapter 624: Don’t even exist. [1/2]
"Take her down," I said curtly.
Evelyn was choking Leo with one hand and holding a spear with the other, said spear impaling her sister. The only reason Nyda was still breathing was because she was a phantom.
Upon examination, her soulgem was on her collarbone. So, she would not die from the spear through her heart.
At my words, a powerful shot rang out from behind me. A 12.7×99mm NATO, also known as a .50 BMG, flew at supersonic speed. Designed by John Browning in the early 1910s, it was quite old. But regardless of its age, it was designed to penetrate armor.
There was a myth that a .50 BMG had so much power that it could kill people just from the pressure of the bullet passing by. While it was never really documented, such a story naturally grew out of the immense power of this bullet.
To a body of flesh and blood, however, it was no different than an eraser. Jas had little sympathy for other people. While she was loving to me, Jo and the other Sirens, my wife was heartless to everyone else.
I could hardly blame her for what she did.
Jas, in her desire to both free Nyda and push Evelyn back, shot the .50 BMG through our adventurer instead. The sheer force of the bullet tore a huge hole in Nyda, almost vaporizing her entire torso.
Her body split in half, releasing her from the spear. The bullet continued on, blasting through Evelyn’s chest. It tore through her flesh and pulverized her spine. The small woman then lost her supporting frame and collapsed in a bloody heap.
Leo, who had fallen to the ground, quickly grabbed the two halves of his {Kindred} and retreated. In the same moment, Liv rushed forward and mercilessly slashed away at Evelyn’s pile of flesh. That was before she aimed the 1887 and fired a 10-gauge Sacred.
"My my...how bloodthirsty," a beautiful voice exclaimed.
Despite the surroundings flashing with a blinding radiance, my ears and soul felt Evelyn flee before the Sacred purified her. The sound of more than a hundred wings echoed as they all flapped and carried her to safety.
Lilly, sensing the same thing, unleashed a barrage of bullets at the flock of flying animals. The sound of metallic bullets tearing flesh followed.
When the light faded, our vision returned. And sure enough, a swarm of bats was dancing around our princess’s line of fire. I raised my hand and Lilly stopped their attack.
The bats then gathered on another and then transformed into a beautiful woman. She had black hair and blood-red eyes. The creature before us wore a sultry looking dress meant to entice and drive men wild.
"You lot seem stronger than my sister and her pathetic excuse for a lover," Evelyn said mockingly.
Staring at me, she licked her lips as she continued.
"Despite only standing in place, my soul tells me to run from you. May I please have the pleasure of hearing your name, oh handsome reaper. You seem to be just my type..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Jas fired back. Another .50 BMG entered her left eye and blew out the back of her skull. A violent mess of blood and brain matter exploded like a firecracker. Of course, the right side of her face also fell apart horribly.
"He is not interested, you filthy harlot. Stop talking to my husband. Even if you try to seduce him and me, we have the mental strength to fight you!"
Jas then pulled out the SWS and fired it with one hand. A 7.62 Sacred glowed again and raced to destroy Evelyn’s body.
But faster than even supersonic bullets, her body turned into bats and escaped all over again. Needless to say, the bats that were too slow to evade were reduced to ashes.
This was practically the first time I saw the inhumane way Jas killed her enemies up close. Since her targets were usually extremely far away, few would see the gruesome manner in which Jas dominated the battlefield.
Her first shot destroyed the heart. The second targeted the head. Despite knowing that her enemy was immortal, Jas was already searching for her weakness. With {Variance}, she may have already found it.
"Fufu. Such bloodlust. I can see why the Duke of Arno was afraid of what was to come. Besides, you all seem to be carrying weapons blessed with holy power. How interesting..."
Somehow, I felt something tickling my soul. It seemed to make the woman before me extremely beautiful. As if I was under her spell. As I watched Evelyn, my girls all seemed plain and ugly compared to her.
Probably noticing my gaze, Evelyn pushed up her magnificent breasts as she smiled beautifully. Everything from her voice to her appearance captivated me.
"Do you like what you see, handsome? If you help me, you can do whatever you want with my body," Evelyn said in the sexiest way I had ever heard.
But unlike with the Sirens, the attraction felt empty. It was like craving burgers but eating cereal just to stave off hunger. It left me unsatisfied and angry. That’s why I didn’t even get the slightest hard-on, despite all her glamour and beauty.
’Exa, do something.’
[{Perceive}, {Listen} and {Code} have suggested a new {Kismet}. Should I tell them to create it?]
’Do it.’
[Understood. {Illusion Resistance} created].
At Exa’s words, my mind suddenly cleared, and I saw Evelyn as she really was. Unlike before, I now saw her true appearance. Her eyes were the most obvious difference. Her irises were black instead of white.
Her skin, a beautiful white before, was now semi-transparent. Black lines that looked like blood vessels could be seen, giving the impression that she was nothing more than a corpse. Evelyn’s lips were no longer red, but gray, almost the color of black.
As if that were not enough, her hands were no longer human. Instead of hands, she had what looked like the claws of a bird. When I saw the disgusting appearance of this monster, my feelings shifted. Evelyn Flowers was alive. But one thing was clear: she was no longer human.
Due to my new {Kismet}, my {Kindred} naturally all widened their eyes as they also saw the truth. If they had seemed unwilling to attack that monster before, now they seemed eager.
"What are you?" I asked in disgust.
Probably sensing the emotion on my face, Evelyn’s began to scream.
"YOU BROKE THROUGH MY ILLUSION? HOW? YOU! CAN SEE ME?!"
Gone was the flirtatious woman from earlier. Now there was only rage emanating from Evelyn. It was amusing that she now locked eyes with me. It reminded me of a hunter who wanted to kill his prey.
"I find it funny that you seemed angrier at me than my {Kindred}. Need I remind you that they were the ones who shot your disgusting excuse of a body to pieces? I haven’t even started attacking you yet."
"I WILL KILL YOU!!!"
Evelyn charged towards me. Her teeth seemed to turn into knives like those of a shark. Her claws also lengthened to almost a foot long. Completely enraged, she failed to see those around me.

A loud metallic noise crashed. Liv smashed her shield into Evelyn’s side as she approached. The sound of several bones breaking was picked up by {Listen}. Not done, Liv similarly slammed the 1887 onto her back, shattering her spine.

The two-pronged attack sent the monster to the ground, vomiting blood. Despite its fierce appearance, this monster was stupid as hell. But before I could say anything, the hairs on my back stood up. I quickly turned around, raised the SCAR-H and pulled the trigger.
Mirroring my actions, the girls all pointed their weapons in the same direction and opened fire. But in the midst of our attack, something zipped past us and took Evelyn. Even though I could see it take her, it was gone before I could even react.
With Evelyn in a bridal carry, the man then sprang up bat wings and quickly flew away. Ignoring us completely, his focus remained on Nyda’s sister.
