"Ah, but I just want to note Successor. Most areas do not even have a McDonald's, so it's more of an economic problem than it is about health. I an, look at Mauritius; a quarter of their people are obese. Compared to my usual als, the food is exceptionally tasty."
Sohow, I felt defeated hearing Zanele defend the honor of fast food with obesity rates. While I believed the absurd fat and sugar in fast food contributed, I assud it was more about lifestyle. If you burned more than you ate, it was impossible to put on pounds.
While I may have been sedentary as a human, I was quite active as a Reaper. Every waking mont was spent fighting or making love, so my caloric needs should be intense. And even if it weren't, I wasn't even sure if Reapers' biology could get fat.
'Hmm. I wonder if Reapers gain weight? Does my hair even grow out? I an we are technically dead and made up of souls. Isn't that why we no longer die of old age?'
Just then, I felt a pair of hands grab my neck. They then made turn. A pair of lips and a tongue then began to kiss the insides of my mouth. The naughty way her tongue sucked on mine had Latina written all over it.
"Honey, you know I love you. But for the love of God, can you please fucking eat sothing else? Your mouth always tastes of salt, sugar, or grease," Bella complained, pouting as she released .
"I apologize, Mrs. Code. Mind letting eat you instead?"
"W-Wha…?"
Seeing her flabbergasted, I stole her lips and greedily licked the insides of her mouth. I felt sothing pull on my collar, yanking away. I was about to complain about the disrespect but heard the angry sermons of my Kindred.
"Husband, I packed plenty of healthy options; why did you still choose McDonald's and KFC? Explain. Now."
"Hmph. Anata, we made you an entire 10-course al in bentos, yet you ignored them all for unhealthy food full of MSG! Seiza!"
'Oh Shit.'
Jasmine and Aki argued about many things, but only one issue united them like sworn sisters. It was my fast food-centric diet. I quietly got on my knees and hunched my shoulders. I channeled my inner rock and tried my best impression of a statue.
Whenever they beca this way, even Lilly, Bella, and Liv shrank back from their intensity. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Robyn and Jo giggling like little devils. They likewise stood united when it ca to pranking the other Sirens or .
I tried to find help. I made contact with Lilly, Liv, and Bella. Yet all three of them awkwardly turned away and began chatting as they ate. The three pretended they saw nothing as Aki and Jas ca down on in righteous culinary fury.
"Well? Say sothing, Husband. Do you wish to lower your IQ even further? MSG may cause brain damage if eaten in large amounts! Your diet is 90% made up of MSG-rich foods! Are you intentionally trying to beco brain dead?"
"Anata, just because you lost so weight due to ascending does not an you can be careless. You should still be careful about high blood pressure, obesity, and heart disease. I know you like fatty foods, but fish and vegetables can be yummy too. But you need to get familiar with them first."
Getting scolded like this was sothing I had long accepted. Any and all attempts I had made in the past were pointless in front of these two. So I just bowed my head in repentance. I tried to look cute as I forced my eyes wider and begged.
"I am sorry, Kamisan, Wifey. Please find it in your heart to forgive . I will try to eat healthier. I promise."
"Sigh, Anata, that was what you said last ti. And the ti before that. I am starting to believe we should just burn all fast food in Hellsend's storage. Asking you not to eat fast food is like asking an alcoholic not to drink. We should just destroy the liquor cabinet."
"Wait, Aki, the rest of Hellsend needs those for stamina. It would be better to have Exa or Lilly deny Husband's requests when he tries to sneak off to eat them. Sothing like Seal of Seven but for Big Macs and fried chicken. Maybe we can make a {Kist} or {Program}."
As I continued to get grilled by Aki and Jas, I overheard Zanele and Olamide's discussion.
"Matriarch Zanele, are Successors and their Sins normally this… chaotic?"
"Haha, I know what you an, Prince Olamide. One mont they are at each other's throats, and the next they are all friends again. You would not think this group carries a mission that could decide humanity's fate. Their joy and happiness suggest otherwise.
"To answer your question, no. It is not normal. The ones I t prior to this group all had grim outlooks and reeked of despair and hopelessness. None of the Sins even lasted long enough to et each other. And the Successors couldn't even smile, much less laugh."
"Is that a good thing or a bad thing?" the prince asked as he gobbled a chicken nugget.
Zanele thought for a mont before she answered, "I am uncertain. But sohow, I feel that it is. Africa's Successor for this cycle has already died. To be honest, I had believed that the bouts had already finished. Limitless is quite late; there might already be a winner."
As I heard more information about the Successors, I felt my lips twist into a grin. While I intended to run away from the one in Africa for now, I fully intended to hunt him when I get stronger.
'But that would co much later. If Aki and Jas ever intend to release , that is.'

My health-conscious lovers finally forgave after half an hour. They almost didn't when I made the mistake of saying that Reapers don't even get fat. They were placated when I created the {Program} [MSG Blocker] against my will.
It was as it sounded. A {Program} that prevents from pulling food from my subspace if it has MSG. And it even fucking snitched on and sent ssages to Aki and Jas if I tried to eat sothing that soone else had.
Everyone sat back down with full stomachs. Aki and Jas still hovered beside like it was a matter of course. Zanele and Olamide didn't bother reacting and just continued.
"Let resu by starting to describe the Sin of Wrath. Third in position, they all grow up repressing their emotions for several reasons. The causes for their decision to restrict themselves differ, but the result is often the sa.
"The Sins of Wrath beco violent and are the most aggressive upon becoming a Reaper. While the Sins of Envy destroy to make others suffer, the Sins of Wrath do so for no other reason than they want to. Their {Fates} are typically offensive and destructive."
After she finished, Zanele gazed at Robyn, who was our Sin of Wrath, and waited for her reaction. My kitten then tried to wave her off nonchalantly, "Yeah, yeah, you nailed it, cunt. Get on with it. Do Sloth next!"
"Yes, Lady Rhiannon."
