Limitless The Strongest Revenant

Not suppressing a smile, I teased them in response.

"Her name is Aira, and she has been my precious partner since last night."

[...]

Suddenly I noticed someone else in the video I sent to Bella's phone, Aira manifested next to me, just as she did in cyberspace. When I turned around, she was not there, leaving me confused.

[My ladies, please ignore my lord's words. I am his mercenary AI. Pleased to meet you all, I am Artificial Intelligence for Reconnaissance and Analysis Version 7.1, also known as AIRA. I exist only in cyberspace and have been assisting my lord Limitless in his missions.]

Gasps of surprise and admiration came from the other end of the line.

[And who chose your outfit and appearance, Aira? Was it Darling?]

[No, Lady Benelli. This form is based on a maid from one of my lord's games. When I suggested this appearance to him, he found it to be to his liking. I have used it ever since.]

[I don't suppose you have a list of female characters Husband favors?]

[I do Lady Denel. Even those he is sexually stimulated by. Should I send it over?]

"Oy! Aira!"

[Dear, please be silent. I like you, send the data over this instant. We will get along just fine.]

[Your words honor me, Lady Browning.]

[Just one thing, Aira, were you the one who blocked my access to Honey's personal data?]

[Yes, Lady Taurus. At the time, I didn't know if the Sirens were friend or foe.]

[Did we establish who we are to the Southerner?]

[Yes, Lady Ivaldi. Since last night, my lord's stress has steadily accumulated. But in the short time he spent with the Sirens, it seemed as if he was relieved of all his worries. My lord undoubtedly has great affection for each of you.]

"Aira!"

[Hmph. I still don't understand what you are, Slag. But if you don't support my wombat properly, I will make you regret it.]

[Of course, Lady Lithgow. I will not disappoint].

Since Aira didn't even have a physical body, I couldn't stop her from talking. Not that there was anything wrong with what she said. It was however kind of embarrassing.

[My Ladies, it is 7:36 p.m. here at our location. My Lord, Limitless has yet to eat or even get dressed. Would it be all right to schedule a call later this evening?]

[I guess it cannot be helped. Dear, we are on our way back to North America tomorrow. Try not to be so reckless, okay?]

[Lilly, that seems like an impossibility for him, right?] Bella joked.

[Yeah! Darling is crazy!]

[Husband, at least please try not to be so suicidal.]

[Hahaha, like the wombat would even listen!]

[Indeed, the blood of warriors is hard to quell. Wait for me, John, when I arrive, let us create legends worthy of the Northern halls!]

With a blissful smile, I nodded and said my goodbyes.

"See you all tomorrow. Stay safe."

Then the call ended and I was alone again in this beautiful suite. But for all its beauty, it felt cold and devoid of life.

"..."

Then I got up and got dressed. Because my suit was my {Auto} state. No matter how badly it was torn, burned, or battered, upon rewinding, it would come out like new.

I rewound this morning before taking a shower, so I had a fresh suit, just like last night.

As I was wondering where to go next, the hotel room phone suddenly rang. Then it suddenly stopped. Aira then told me something I wasn't expecting.

[My Lord, the package I ordered has arrived. I told the receptionist that the person delivering it is a friend of ours. He will be here shortly.]

"Thats fine."

[Unfortunately, we need time to set up, so please make do with the burgers in your storeroom for your meals.]

"Oh? This package is that important to you?"

[Yes, my lord, it contains your gift to me, it is a top item and must be handled with care].

"My gift, huh? Then I will refrain from asking and see what you have got yourself."

[You would be very pleased, my Lord. I intend to get your money's worth ten times over.]

Highly curious as to what was coming, I sat on the bed and waited. Not less than a minute later there was a knock at the door.

When I opened it, a man dressed in a sharp business suit stood there holding a sturdy looking metal case.

"Are you Mr. Limitless?" he asked in a gruff tone.

I didn't answer, but simply nodded. He pulled out a smartphone and held it out for me to sign. After I gave him my signature, he handed me the case and promptly left.

"My kind of guy." I couldn't help but comment.

The kind of people I hated the most were the ones who prattled endlessly. It was always better to say what you mean and mean what you say.

After I took the case inside, the television turned on and Aira appeared on the screen. Her face betrayed how excited she was, as if it was Christmas morning.

Without delaying the grand unveiling, I unlocked the clasps and opened the top cover. What I saw was a black quad-copter drone with its peripherals. A small label next to it said Skydio X2E.

"A drone? This is your gift?"

[Yes, my Lord. Earlier, you asked me to be your spotter. This device will allow me to fulfill that function. It also will grant me the ability to help you through scouting. This is currently the most advanced and best drone on the civilian market.]

"Oh? How much is it? And what do you want me to do?"

[My Lord, this unit is the X2E, so it costs $15,000. I paid a premium to get it immediately for tonight. The total price comes to $20,000.]

Wow! $20,000 was not cheap. There were even cars under that number. The gift was something that allowed her to help me. Clearly Aira was logical and had my best interests at heart. I couldn't wait to see what this thing could do.

[My Lord, please connect your GRI to the drone, spread its wings, and place one of the battery packs on it. I will take care of the rest. I should be ready before 8:00 p.m.]

"Got it, let's see what this baby can do."
