Limitless The Strongest Revenant

The surreal scene before me was something I could not explain. There were seven of me staring at each other, and all at once I saw, heard, and felt everything they were experiencing.

"My Lord, perhaps it would be better to start slowly?" Pixie warned.

The dissonance of hearing them from different directions made my brain spin. Much like the overlapping viewpoints, her position differed from where the soul avatars stood.

I felt like throwing up from the discomfort. It was like being forced to watch seven different movies on the same screen. I had little idea what I was seeing, and the sensory overload was just one big fucking mess.

To compensate, I closed my eyes. Funnily enough, I could still see. I covered my ears and blew out my eardrums with soul.

"Ack! My lord, are you all right?"

Ignoring the noisy child, I tried to see with one of the avatars. I think it was Tuesday. This soulgear named each avatar after the day of the week. So the main body was aptly named Sunday.

Using Tuesday's eyes, I looked around and noticed that everyone else was hunched over. Sunday was bleeding from his ears and had his eyes closed. The rest looked like retarded mental patients.

'It's a good thing they didn't drool.'

I then proceeded to remove the eyes and ears from the rest of the avatars. The dissonance disappeared as my senses became one. After completing the exercise with Saturday, I returned to Sunday and invoked {Regen}.

With my hearing restored, I opened my eyes and saw my other bodies with their hands to their ears and their eyes closed. I then looked at Pixie, who had a pale face.

"Pixie. Tell me how to use this. You have an hour and forty minutes left."

"My Lord! You have already done a lot on your own! We were supposed to start with a rubber hand illusion!"

The rubber hand illusion was a famous mind bending trick where you used a rubber arm to trick your brain into thinking it was your real arm.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Why did you have to start there?"

"You're the strange one, my lord! {Day by Day} requires a consciousness to enter the avatar's mind. Most people don't have such an ability. For you to switch and command all seven of your bodies is already amazing!"

"Enough flattery. Tell me how to solve the sensory overload problem."

Pixie made a face before grumbling.

"Can't you ask nicer? I thought Limitless was the perfect husband! Why are you being so mean?"

"Then find a husband, I am your master. I have no need to be nice to you when you have yet to fulfill your end of the bargain."

Then Delroy came between us, trying to mediate.

"Brutha, please forgive Pixie, she be a little young, yeah? She means you no harm. She can make it work, you saw earlier. Scaring her will only make it take longer, man."

I knew he was right in his assumptions, but the discomfort I was feeling put me in a really bad mood. So much so that I had no energy left to coddle this brat.

"Move," I said coldly.

Probably sensing that I was serious, Delroy backed off. Pixie, recognizing my demeanor, began to panic.

"Ahem. You n-need to use something to serve as your c-control."

Seeing the child tremble made me feel terrible. This young girl probably had the idea that I would beat her if she did not do her job. As frustrated as I was, I would never do such a thing.

I took a deep breath and knelt before her.

"Pixie. Calm down. I am sorry for being so harsh. I will not lay a hand on you. I grew up being beaten too. I will never hurt you because you couldn't teach me.

I swear it in the name of the Sirens".

Hearing my words, the child visibly relaxed a bit.

"O-okay. The concept is like an old school TV, your avatars are the channels. And your mind is the screen. As a beginner, you have to force your mind to focus on only one channel and tune out the rest."

I see, so it was like the cocktail party effect, but taken to the extreme. You had the ability to focus on certain things even when other things were going on. In this way, you could still talk to other people at a concert or a large gathering.

While I could understand the concept, it seemed like a waste. If I couldn't see the other avatars, they would lose half their value. If that was the case, then the answer was not to turn it into a simple television.

"Huh?"

Using my mind as a filter, I tried to separate and organize the information.

'Guys. This shit is hard. Can you give me a hand?'

As if hearing my words, my vision suddenly split like a zoom meeting. I had one main screen, and three small screens appeared at either end of my vision. It was similar to using a futuristic HUD or playing a racing game.

"Haha, you guys are awesome as always," I praised excitedly.

[{Code}, {Eat}, and {Perceive} expressed their pleasure at your compliment. {Listen} has also prepared the soul avatar hearing to be linked to this conference HUD. They have also added it as a default feature of {Limitless}.]

Amazed at my {Fates}, whatever frustration I had was blown away.

I then willed Monday to open his eyes. When he did, one of the small screens on the left now showed me looking at myself.

"Great. Tuesday. You're up."

Unconsciously, even though they were all me, I began to order my other bodies as I would order other people. Of course, it was bullshit because the avatars didn't move when I didn't, so it was literally playing house alone.

I repeated the exercise with all the avatars and found that the dissonance had already disappeared. Unfortunately, I couldn't hear anything from the other avatars.

"Pixie, do these avatars heal?"

"They do not, my lord. The avatars are set when they are summoned. To heal them, you must unsummon and then resummon them. Once they are split into souls, the damage they took is reset. And when they return, they would use your current state as their starting point."

"Ho? So it is like my own {Fate}. Very well. {Day by Day}".

At my words, the soul avatars disintegrated into particles of light and vanished. My split vision deactivated and returned to my normal vision. At that moment, I called upon my soulgear and resummoned all six avatars.

I then watched as all my bodies stared at each other. Using Sunday, I summoned Ebony and fired at the ground.

The gunfire surprised both Delroy and Pixie, but I didn't focus on them.

Expecting to suffer some sort of discomfort, I was surprised when I was still fine. I heard the gunshots coming from all seven bodies. But just as with my vision, only Sunday's vision heard it in full. The others were greatly diminished.

"Okay, this works."

Using the conference HUD, I continued to switch viewpoints as I spoke. I no longer felt uncomfortable and could switch eyes at a moment's notice.

In the future, my goal would be to eliminate this and be able to process everything at once.

Having a new goal to strive for made me hopeful. This power had too many applications and fit my fighting style to an amazing degree.

Still using Sunday, I faced Pixie and asked for the next step.

"Pixie, I can see and hear with all the avatars. Now tell me how to move them."
