Limitless The Strongest Revenant-Chapter 850 : At least not now [1/2]
"So, what's your excuse this time?" Zach impatiently inquired.
"I don't know what you are talking about."
I turned to Nathan, "Can you set up a room for me and this bastard to discuss. If you can send some food there, I would appreciate it."
"Right away Mr. Limitless!" the clerk snappily saluted as he replied
He then left the counter and called for me and Zach to follow him.
"Isn't this bastard too happy?" Zach grumbled as he walked behind me.
"Nathan is an excellent employee of this establishment. So much so that I am thinking of hiring him. He has a knack for knowing what I want before I even ask."
"You say that like it's hard to figure you out, bastard. All he has to do is just to dump those girls on a bed. Even a monkey could do that."
I didn't even bother replying to this arrogant fuck. He was lucky I was in an extremely good mood. Waking to your harem's glorious nude bodies was enough to make even the dullest fucker believe in world peace.
Nathan never lost his smile as we entered what looked like a luxurious drawing room. It looked like a classy living room of a castle or some shit. The furniture looked expensive with bottles of whiskey and wine all at arm's length.
"Please use this room for as long as you like Mr. Limitless. This is one of our most exclusive ghost rooms. No one will bother you here. I will return in ten minutes with a breakfast platter. You will for a typical American breakfast, correct?"
Although I now had more cash than I would ever need, my tastes in food remained simple. Even though it would be more in line with my income to order some caviar or something expensive I didn't bother to do so.

I mean, I was rich. Who the fuck would I even need to impress? At the moment, all I really wanted was to eat in things that brought me joy. Whether that be items that were ridiculously expensive or cheap hardly mattered.
"Yeah. Thanks Nathan."
Just as he was about to leave, I wondered if this was what having a butler felt like. Having money meant I could buy whatever gave me joy. Nathan's care at my accommodations was something I appreciated. He made my stay here really enjoyable.
"Nathan."
"Yes? Is there something else I can assist with Mr. Limitless?"
"How much do you make in a year?"
"Uhm, haha. I don't mean to brag but I make about $100,000 after tips."
"I see. I will give you $500,000 a year. Work for me as my butler," I offered.
Nathan suddenly went slack jawed as he began to drool. It was comical that such an amount was enough to blow his mind out of the water. To me such an amount was no longer worth my notice. In just a month my sense of value was already warped.
I mean, Limitless Version 4 had cost 50,000 souls per activation. Each soul was worth $20. Meaning just activating my {Kismet} alone burned a million dollars. And the amount I earn in five days could easily in the hundreds of thousands of souls every night.
"Ughk! Are you serious Mr. Limitless?" Nathan gasped as he wiped the drool off his face.
"I am. Your responsibilities will be to take care of my family. Security is handled by other people, so you only need to ensure that those I love are taken care off."
"I. U-Uhm…"
"Do know however, I have many enemies. It's a high-risk high reward position. Think of it as working as the butler of a crime boss. Think it over. If there is any fee's I need to pay for you to leave this hotel, let me know."
"There is no need! I will do it! Leave it to me! Your family will be treated like royalty! I will hand in my resignation right now if you want! Oh, but if I did, who would handle your room here Mr. Limitless?"
'Exa?'
[The Derycks has built a modest mansion near the Simmons residence. It was designed with your preferences in mind. Vincent has yet to share it as it is still undergoing finishing touches. Should you wish to move there, you may do so as early as today.]
'Hmm. I actually do not have much in the way of stuff. I guess staying in this hotel is a waste of time.'
[I would also wish to add that Vincent has hired an entire retinue of chefs, butlers and maid to wait on you the Sirens and the Simmons. Most of them are more qualified than Nathan.]
'It's fine. I don't know any of them. And I like this person.'
[I understand. I will inform the Derycks that you intend to move there today.]
'Although, we aren't bringing anything and will leave immediately after,' I quipped.
"Don't mind it. I will be leaving the hotel today anyway. My secretary will give you the location of your new workplace. For now, your immediate focus is to serve my parents and my sisters. My wives and I will handle our checkout on our own."
"I understand! Thank you, Mr. Limitless. I won't let you down! I will give my life to serve you and your family! I will hand in my resignation and prepare immediately."
"Don't forget my food."
"Ah! Right! I still have to organize your meal and that of the ladies! I will get on it!"
As if someone lit a fire under his ass, Nathan ran back to concierge in a hurry. His face which I though was already happy now looked positively deranged. I couldn't help but chuckle at his fervor. Couldn't blame him though.
To those struggling, money really made a world of a difference. Maybe it was selfishness but seeing that I now had the power to change the fate of a human just by my whims felt pretty good. The world was still going to shit, but at least Nathan would have a better life.
Ending my short daydream, I closed the door. When I did, Zach was already seated but was scrolling on his phone. If you didn't know who this fucker was, you would mistake him for a common everyday uncle.
I took my seat in front of him as I allowed him to finish checking his messages. In the meantime, I had Exa send me the schematics and pictures of the house Vincent built for me. Contrary to what Exa said it was not modest by any means. It was a fucking mansion.
"Alright. Let's get down to business bastard. You even had me wait while you poached a human from Raymond."
"Raymond? You mean Raymond Gertrude?"
"What? You didn't know? This hotel belongs to him. He has I think over two hundred. He uses different names, but they are all his as far as I know."
"Well shit. No wonder he can afford to laze around."
"Cut the bullshit bastard. I am here because of the shit storm you kicked up! What is all this crap about reclaiming Antarctica? And that is beside the fact that you intend to go demon hunting in Africa!"
"Yeah, so? It's all-true thought? What do you want me to say?"
Zach then slammed his fist into the coffee table as he shouted, "I want to know why you are doing this? The political climate of the seven Battlefronts is already crap as it is! I applaud your defense from the Latinos attacking another continent is stupid!"
"Sigh. Zach, what are you doing?" I sighed while I placed my fist under my chin.
"What?"
"I asked why you are here demanding for answers and shit. Why do you think that you are entitled to receive answers from me? Hell's Eden does not answer to North America. That was the cost of foregoing your battlefront's protection."
"…"
"In case you need it in even simpler terms. You fuckers abandoned us to our own devices. Forget any transition, you left the 24th floor as it was being attacked by Lizardkin. No one helped when we settled in. I even did a favor for you bastards by taking out the Vampires."
"T-Thats…"
"My deal with David was to defend North America for half a year. We are obligated to respond to any calls for help from attacks from Hellsgate. That was it. I am not obligated to follow the rules you fuckers have set for yourselves.
