Chapter 335: Hellsend [2/2]
Still, the sudden changes in the LLG could not have happened just like that. I then connected to the Minerva Network and sent a message to my harem.
[Limitless: Everyone. Thank you. It is at moments like this that I feel how lucky I am to have each of you in my life. I am quite stupid, so please never leave my side, okay? My precious Kindred. The ones who own my heart.]
[Freyja: You are our world, love. And we would do anything to keep you safe.]
[Ishtar: Such is expected of us, dearest Otherwise, we do not deserve to stand beside you.]
[Rhiannon: Don\'t worry Possum. We\'ll always be there to set you straight!]
[Vela: Anything for you, Darling! We mean it!]
[Minerva: Just do what you do best, honey, we will handle the rest.]
[Satis: This is our right and our privilege, husband. Now and forever.]
[Inari: Of course, Shujin. We would never let you face this all alone.]
I couldn\'t help but smile at the corner of my lips. While I was resting, everyone was forming the new group Infinity to be something that could support me.
[Limitless: By the way, who came up with the name Infinity? It\'s kind of a mouthful. Can I rename the group?]
[Sirens:...]
[Limitless: Everyone?]
As I turned around, I noticed that the Sirens were all making interesting faces. Some were annoyed, while others looked embarrassed. Did the name Infinity carry so much weight?
[Rhiannon: I told you all it was stupid.]
[Minerva: Shut up, jailbait! We voted!]
[Vela: Hehe. Darling is kind of simple minded, he likes things in the most basic way possible.]
[Ishtar: But where is the poetry in that? How could such a complex and intricate group have such a rudimentary name? Romance people! Where is the romance?]
[Satis: Another case of how reading smut turns your brain into shit.]
[Inari: Lilly-sama, I think the problem is that you abhor simple names. Like Rhiannon said. Limitless of Infinity sounds a bit...]
[Rhiannon: It sounds stupid, you pervert!]
[Minerva: Stop it! Infinity is what Honey\'s group stands for! This faction will never run out of supplies! It is infinite!]
[Ishtar: Bella...sniff. Only you can understand me.]
[Rhiannon: That\'s because you\'re both out of your minds!]
[Freyja: But it sounded cool... the land of infinity. The Shield of Infinity. A good name.]
[Inari: Liv, I think you are focusing on the wrong thing.]
As I listened to the conversation between my girls, I couldn\'t help but smile. The romantics, Bella, Lilly and Liv, seemed to have chosen the name. While the no-nonsense group made up of Aki, Jas and Robyn had a different opinion.
Jo, was probably the one who cast the deciding vote. I could see her going either way. Not wanting to make a bigger deal out of it, I stepped in and calmed my girls down.
[Limitless: Everyone. Infinity is a beautiful name. If I had a ship, I would name it Infinity, but for our group, I wanted something different. If you don\'t mind, can I change the name?]
[Freyja: I follow you, my love. I do not care what we are called.]
[Rhiannon: Bloody oath, I agree with Liv. Have at it, Possum.]
[Satis: I follow your words, Husband.]
[Inari: I am the same Anata.]
[Vela: Make it good, Darling!]
[Minerva: If it sounds stupid, I will object, is what I wanted to say. But you already trust us too much with the group Honey. The least you can do is give it a name.]
[Ishtar: Sigh. Very well. I will relent. Let it be known that your spouse is a reasonable and supportive woman. When we get a ship, it will be called Infinity! Okay?]
[Limitless: Thank you everyone. I love you all]
I then turned to the leaders of the group we have and declared in a loud voice with {Announce}.
"Well done, everyone. Thank you for your dedication to my goal. I have discussed it with the Sirens and our group will have a new name. Infinity will be a reserved name for a later date."
Phillip wiped his monocle with a handkerchief as he asked. "I see, what would your forces be called then, my lord?"
Jo was right about one thing. And that was that I disliked extremely symbolic names. Names had power. And with that power it was best if the name was simple and direct.
As a Reaper, I had only one goal. It was to close Hellsgate. To end all the undead and free the reapers from their curse to fight for eternity. Now that I had a family, I wanted to end this nonsense in my generation. I did not want my children to inherit such a chaotic future.
What I longed for was to live with my women in a land without war. A place where we could live in peace, where we did not have to fear death or wickedness. What I wanted was an end to this hell.
"We shall be called Hellsend."
"Hellsend?" Phillip parroted in confusion.
Inside the Minerva Network.
[Sirens:...]
[Rhiannon: So fucking lame...]
[Freyja: This is... interesting?]
[Vela: Well, that is really simple. It can also be read as "Hell send" which is kind of cool?]
[Inari: Shujin...I...never mind]
[Satis: Husband, the name is good. Don\'t listen to them.]
[Minerva: Is it too late to use Infinity?]
[Ishtar: I understand the intent, but really? Hellsend? Dear, was that the best you could come up with?]
[Limitless:... is it that bad?]
I noticed people looking at the new name with wry smiles. Gritting my teeth in embarrassment, I roared as loud as I could.
"We shall be called Hellsend. Our purpose is only one thing. To end the need for this hell. To send the undead back to their graves and prevent their return. We will fight until we can\'t any longer, and we will stop the end of the world dead in its tracks!"
My words caused whispers and murmurs. Even if the name was bad, the intent was clear and direct. We were not going to focus on politics, religion, or some intangible goal. Instead, it was something even children could understand.
To end hell. To end the need for descendants and even reapers. To prevent the undead from ever rising again. That was my goal. And that would be the focus of this group.
"Three cheers for Hellsend!" Robyn hollered.
"Hiphip!"
"HOOORAY!"
"Hiphip!"
"HOOORRRRRRAY!"
"Hiphip!"
"HUUAAAARRRRRRAAAAYYYY!"
Their impromptu cheers prompted the majority to respond in kind. Each iteration of "Hip Hip Hooray" grew in volume and intensity. By the last one, the group was beyond excited.
I then raised my fist in the air and used {Announce}.
"I hereby declare the formation of Hellsend! Prepare yourselves for battle! We will crush as many undead as we can in the next eight hours! ARE YOU WITH ME?!"
The armies of the 2nd Amendment began slamming the butts of their rifles into the ground. Along with a rhythmic stomping of their feet. The beat infected the rest of Hellsend. It culminated in a loud cacophony of cheers and excitement.
At the peak of the energy, I yelled with {Announce} and death resonance!
"HELLSEND! BEGIN THE ASSAULT!"
