Limitless The Strongest Revenant
Chapter 229: Fuck yeah, I'm in [2/2]

The driver of the black F-150 rolled down his window and stuck his head out, yelling over his crappy rap music.

"Yo! Dawg! Race you to the other side! You game?"

It was obvious this fucker was trying to talk me into a dick measuring contest. The original Ford F-150 SVT Lighting on which his EV was based also had a V-8 engine.

Probably trying to prove his car was superior despite being only a quarter of the price, he kept waiting for me to roll down my window to respond.

It was childish, stupid, and made no contribution to society. I would have to be an idiot to agree to that. So I just let my baby answer him. I stepped on the gas and let the Escalade give a furious battle cry.

"Fuck yeah, I'm in," I whispered, smiling from ear to ear.

A deafening roar from the V-8 engine drowned out everything around me, from his crappy music to all other sounds.

The driver smiled happily and got back into his truck."Aight dawg! It's on!"

I touched the dashboard and started talking to the Escalade.

"Esca, we are going to smoke this fucker. Let me give you a hand. {Carry}, {Pack}, {Hike}."

It wasn't that I was hell-bent on winning. But my car was carrying a metal dress worth its weight in gold. Why should I let my baby lose her first race?

Both the Ford Lightning and I eagerly waited for the light to change, and I started to rev the engine as I got impatient. My opponent also tried to rev his engine, but since EV's are supposed to be silent, In comparison to my Esca, his sound was that of a kitten.

The road ahead of us was a straight line. The lack of cars made barreling down the road relatively safe. No fancy driving needed, just pure American muscle.

A second later, the moment I had been waiting for arrived. The light flickered and turned green.

I stepped on the gas as hard as I could and let Esca demonstrate her monstrous acceleration. Like the crack of a whip, a split second was all it took for the Cadillac Escalade-V to take off like a rocket.

Of course, since I had {Endure}, I hardly felt anything, but the cabin of the vehicle showed signs of the rapid acceleration. The rush of adrenaline through my veins was pure ecstasy.

I must have gone from 0-60 in 2 or 3 seconds. When I turned around, I noticed that the Ford Lighting was still in its starting position, just beginning to slowly move forward with the rest of the traffic.

"Wha..."

The loud wail of police sirens echoed behind me. It only dawned on me that the driver of the Ford Lightning probably knew there was a cop hiding along this route.

"Fuck, well played you bastard."

I pulled over and waited for the cop to come to my car. Since I couldn't roll down the window, I opened the door a little.

"Nice car you got brother, do you have any idea how fast you were going? License and registration please."

Feeling a little bitter about being pulled over, I reached into my wallet and pulled out my driver's license. When I saw my ugly face on the ID, I just remembered that I was no longer human.

"Who the hell ever heard of a reaper getting a ticket?"

I summoned death resonance and ordered the cop.

"You didn't see anything and I was within the speed limit."

Dazed, the cop nodded his head and prepared to leave. I then invoked the resonance again and added another command.

"The black Ford F-150 Lightning with me was carrying drugs. Search his vehicle, then take him to jail for listening to bad music. let him go after an hour."

People might say I was being petty.

But the F-150 driver should be happy, I was the one he encountered. If it was any other reaper, he might be swimming with the fishes by now.

"Understood. Have a good day."

Still dazed, the cop walked away, then started talking into the radio strapped to his shoulder.

"I have a confirmed suspect in a black Ford F-150 heading..."

I started to laugh out loud as I heard the cop following my instructions. My only regret was that I wouldn't be there to see the fucker get thrown in jail for his shitty music.

While the whole situation felt incredibly stupid, it made me smile. With most of my worries taken care of by Vincent, I quickly drove to the Simmons residence.

From a distance I saw a sight that brought me great joy. My adopted family and the Seven Sirens were spending time together like one big happy family.

Alana was playing tag in the street with Josephine and Robyn. They looked like three peas in a pond as they all had big smiles on their faces.

Bless, on the other hand, seemed to be engrossed with Bella, discussing something on the porch. Aki was dutifully wiping what looked like cookie crumbs from my sister's mouth.

Further away, Noelle and Lilly seemed to be trading blows in an intense no holds barred kickboxing match. Jasmine was waiting at their side like a maid with towels and a pitcher of water.

Earl and Liv were also arm wrestling off to one side. With a beer stein on their other hand. What the fuck were the two even doing?

The moment I pulled up, everyone looked in my direction. They all got up and walked towards Esca. The loud V-8 probably announced my arrival to the whole neighborhood.

I turned off the engine and quickly got out of the car. When they saw me, Alana and Bless ran at full speed and threw themselves at me like meteors.

"JOHNNY!"

Even at 18 and 21, my adopted sisters still acted like children. Although their innocence made me feel their affection for me, since I was not technically their real brother, I tried to minimize our physical contact.

But right now, all I wanted was to feel the warmth of my adopted sisters. After giving them both a big hug. I walked up to the house, flanked by the African-American sisters.

The Sirens all smiled wordlessly when they saw me. Except for Aki, the last time I had seen all of them face to face was barely a week ago. Still, it felt like I hadn't seen them in centuries.

"Hello everyone, I am back. I missed you all very much."

My heartfelt greeting was cut off by a threatening voice that made my blood run cold.

"Dipshit. Inside. Now."

"Ah fuck," I cursed silently.
