If there was one good thing that ca out of this damn reunion, it was that I got to see the Sirens dress up.
Seeing them try on elegant dresses that showed skin or hugged their bodies was a treat. But for so reason they told that they were not going to the reunion with .
After soothing with kisses and promises of a wild night, my girls kicked out of the hotel. This left with nowhere to go, so I drove to the Simmons residence.
Being able to drive Esca made very happy. Hopefully I would be able to bring her to Hellsgate. Originally, I couldn't because I didn't have enough storage space, but since I leveled up the {Store} family, I now had ample storing capacity.
The main problem was that I was reluctant to bring along one car.
"I an, anyone who saw Bella's army would think that, right?"
In any zombie apocalypse story, the military was usually rendered irrelevant. After all, if the authorities were doing well, the main character wouldn't have a chance to shine.
But if anything, from what I saw, a powerful force of Reapers and Sacreds could and would definitely be able to push back the undead.
"Mr Code. Believe when I say this. This plan is only possible, because of {Rewind}. We do not run out of ammunition nor supplies. Stamina is a separate issue, but you even resolved that too. You are a commander's worse nightmare."
Earth's military was already very experienced in destroying its enemies. If only their efforts were directed against the undead, how wonderful it would be.
"Still, if 58-foot monstrosities are going to be the norm, we are definitely going to need heavy ordinance. We should start moving in that direction soon."
With such thoughts in my mind, I finally arrive at my destination. I imdiately noticed a red version of my car parked on the driveway. It seed that Vincent had given Earl the car he promised.
As I got out of my vehicle, the familiar feeling of Phantom's were present. Most of them were familiar signatures. While others seed to be forr Wraiths who had just ascended.
What was certain, however, was that they were all from Hellsend. As more and more of them began to put down roots in this place, it would be good for security.
The best thing about small towns or villages was that every face was familiar.
While most would find that boring, for others it was a comfort.
Normally, a person couldn't rember everyone they t. At most, one could make a hundred friendships in a lifeti. Such truths were why small communities were better, in my opinion.
As I entered the house, I noticed a strange atmosphere.
"Madam, please forgive . I fear my lord more than you."
"Enough of that crap! As the mother of your boss, I order you to spar with ! You are human, right?"
"Indeed I am, but I can't. Do you have any idea what your son's reputation is in Hellsgate?"
"Oh? Then what is it? Co on then spill the beans, Vincent."
When I walked in, a bunch of huge gransters were stationed around my family's living room like bodyguards. Vincent tried to get away from Noelle while trying not to touch her.
Noelle, being the lunatic she was, tried to attack the gangster with kicks and punches. Earl sat and drank coffee. It was as if the whole thing didn't concern him.
Alana and Bless were watching what appeared to be videos from the Graveyard.
'Is this even legal? But Vincent is an example of humans who knew about Reapers. So I guess it's okay?'
The first one to notice was Vincent, and he bowed the mont he saw . Every mber of the Deryck family did the sa.
"Welco back, my lord! Congratulations on your victory."
"JOHNNY!" "Dipshit!"
My little sisters zood like bullets and crashed into .
"You're okay!" "Safe!"
I hugged them back, expressing my happiness at their warm welco.
"Hey Lana, Bless. I'm back."
"Are our sisters-in-law okay?"
"They are, they are getting ready for a party so they will be here soon.
After the girls took a step back, Noelle pulled into her embrace. I could tell by how tight it was that my adoptive mother was very worried about . Grateful for her, I hugged her back as I tried to reassure the woman.
"I'm back, Ma. I'm sorry if I worried you."
"Damn right, dipshit! I watched the whole thing, do you know how many tis I almost broke the TV! How can you fight like a lunatic! Take better care of yourself!"
True to her words, Noelle didn't ntion that I murdered almost 200 people on live TV. All she cared about was that I was safe.
It was like the families of soldiers welcoming them ho. No one would ask about the scars they received trying to co ho. The fact that they were able to was all that mattered.
After calming Noelle, who was crying with relief, I turned to Vincent and thanked him.
"Vincent, thank you for staying with my family. How much have you heard?"
"I watched the live stream here with the Lord Earl and Lady Noelle. I also saw the announcents of His Majesty the Invincible. By the way, congratulations, my lord. It really is a wonderful day to celebrate."
"Yes, thank you. I intend to bring the Derycks to Hellsend as soon as possible. Have your group ready. I will have an enlistnt as soon as we are prepared."
"THANK YOU, MY LORD! I am most grateful!"
"You are welco. Since the reapers have returned, if you and your family wish to rest, please do so. I will stay until my event later this evening," I replied.
"As you wish, my lord. I will have so of my n stay on the grounds to be ready to assist the Simmons. My lords and ladies, please excuse . I will return in the tomorrow."
After that, Vincent and half of his n got into their cars and left. I recognized those guarding Earl's house as part of the 2nd Andnt Squads.
Focusing on my family, I turned to the Simmons and told them the rest of the news.
"By the way, Ma, Pa. I proposed to the Sirens. All of them. And they said yes. We intend to get married as soon as things settle down in Hellsgate."
"WHAT! WHY DID YOU TELL THIS NOW!" "KYA!!!! JOHNNY IS GETTING MARRIED!" "UMU! GOOD!"
Of course, the won in the family were the ones who went crazy. Earl just nodded in understanding. But then he dropped a bomb that freaked out.
"Do you want to wait or have the honeymoon first?"
The mont Noelle heard those words, her hands acted faster than lightning. She grabbed by the collar and began to interrogate .
"Dipshit! You didn't sleep with them yet, did you? Please tell you didn't!"
"I did not. But I ca very close. I don't think I can wait any longer."
"Keep your hands off them! Wait until the ceremony! Don't be like those bastards who cum and go!"
"I would never do that, Ma. I really love them. But aside from the ceremony, we already pledged our futures to each other."
Noelle was at a loss for words and let go of my shirt.
"Haiiiz. I already know that. The fact that the Sirens ca to your war practically told the world how much they loved you. But marriage is not all sunshine and rainbows. It takes sothing much stronger to stay together."
My Ma was a Christian, so she believed that marriage was not just a piece of paper. It was a declaration to the heavens of our vows to be faithful to each other. Till death do us part.
To take a woman outside of that would be considered adultery. Even though in the old days it was the norm for n to take more than one wife.
What was important was not the number, but the vow. Therefore, even if you were monogamous with a single mistress, lover, or slave, they were worth less than those who had the title of wife.
