When I rested in the camp at the center of the zone, I covered the fallen reapers with cloth. It was regrettable that they died, but that was what we signed up for in this second life.
"Aira, can you get the stats from the battle just now?"
For , this battle felt incredibly easy, the impact of just having the Aira and the drone was imnse. Another thing was the blessed rounds, even though I couldn't use more than 10 of them at a ti, their power was well worth the high price.
I wasn't sure if it was because I was getting better or because this was my first fight where I actually had a plan. Aira and I ca up with the Point AB plan before I even fired my first shot.
Being a bit biased, the numbers would prove how viable this strategy would be in the future. For one thing, this battle was boring to because I never felt in danger.
[Yes, my lord. I will send it to you through your GRI. It should appear now. I also finished sending a request for a new defender].
"Thank you Aira."

I withdrew a McDonald's burger and so German beer. I didn't get a chance to stock up on better food, but I wasn't that picky in the first place. Taking a short break, I went over the report and noticed a few things I found interesting.
"Hmm. I made over $180,000 in less than an hour. Not bad. 743 bodies may sound like a lot, but this was practically a walk in the park. I am more surprised that blessed bullets made up 16% of my kills, even though I was so frugal with them.
[Indeed, my lord, your soul earning/expending ratio is absurd. If you didn't use {Fates} on the M60 machine gun, your cost would be even lower. To be able to use that much firepower and not lose a single bullet defies reason.]
"Haha, I have to thank you for this, Aira. Before your help, I could have had similar numbers, but it was a lot more work for . For one thing, I didn't get even a scratch this ti."
[I am honored by your praise, my lord. Would you like to call Reaper Phillip Scrivener?]
"Oh! Right! Please do Aira."
My GRI then made a call to Phillip, and after a few rings I heard the voice of my clerk.
[Esteed Limitless, are you finished with your first siren?]
I noticed that Phillip put a lot of emphasis on keeping up appearances. He changed the way he addressed depending on the situation.
When we were alone, he used Limitless, and when we were in a place where I had to hide my na, it was Mr. Smith.
'Esteed Limitless, huh? He only used that when there were representatives around. Were they still there?'
"Yes, I just finished Phillip, I am waiting for the new defender to arrive before I leave."
[Perfect, zone is... 1093-3. We'll be right over.]
"What? You're coming over?"
Before I could even process what my clerk ant, a skybeam fell not far from where I was. Its landing point was also where I had been when I arrived. I brushed the dirt off my pants and walked towards them.
[My Lord, the drone has the visitors in its vision, would you like to see them?]
"Got it, thanks Aira."
I connected to the Skydio drone and saw the thermal image of Phillip walking towards with a large group of people, about two dozen or so. I saw a few familiar faces among them.
"Are these the representatives we hired earlier?"
[Yes, my lord. The Reapers with Phillip Scrivener are mbers of the Overlord, Red Moon, and Golden Wick guilds.]
"Hmm. They are here for the loot, I guess?"
When Phillip's group and I t, the mbers of Overlord and Red Moon were all looking around. They seed restless for so reason.
"I am glad to see you in good health, esteed Limitless. The production guilds wanted to see the results of one of your battles. So I brought them here. One of Overlord and Red Moon's demands was that they verify the authenticity of your prowess."
"Is that so? Then co with ." I replied boredly.
I nonchalantly led the guilds to Point A, while they all remained restless.
About five of the girls from Golden Wick ca forward and started chatting around . Surprisingly, Yvonne was not among them.
"Limitless! Did your blessed rounds help you in this battle!"
"Hey! Stop bothering our employer! He may not have used them yet!"
"Esteed Limitless, I, um. I bet on you in the Annihilation Ranking. Everyone was cheering when your na suddenly shot to the top!"
I was already first? I couldn't rember what number the others finished with last ti. But I noticed that rank D's were not worth the effort if you were going for the highest score.
Amused by her encouragent, I thanked the girl who had bet on with a smile.
"Thank you for your support, sweetheart. I am blessed to have you in my corner."
The woman suddenly blushed scarlet and began to stamr.
