Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 415

Neo felt satisfied as the bird cried.

He tied it above the mimicked flames before he walked toward the tree in the center of the farm.

The mimicked flames weren’t strong enough to kill Timothy, but they would terrify the bird for centuries to come.

The other two ostriches didn’t interrupt him.

If their eldest and fastest sibling couldn’t stop Neo, then they could not do it either.

They merely watched, their large eyes filled with silent resignation.

Neo plucked an apple from the tree before returning to the starting point.

"You did it," Kane said with mixed emotions, his gaze shifting between Neo and the restrained bird.

"You don’t look happy."

"The goal of the training was to teach you teamwork, but you brute-forced it," Kane replied. "Still, good work. If you can handle the birds alone, you should be a lot safer inside the Abyss of Nightmares." _{fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓}

While Neo talked with Kane, he noticed Percival staring at him.

"What is it? Want me to help you complete the training?"

"I can do it myself."

Percival slung the hammer over his shoulder and returned to the training.

Neo chuckled at his attitude.

He wasn’t worried about Percival.

At the rate he was growing, he should be able to complete the training within the next few days.

"You can go back now," Kane said. "We have two more days before we meet up with the Grand Expedition. Use this time to learn the Concealment Spell I gave you.

"Take this too."

Kane passed a piece of paper to him.

"What’s this?"

"Language Spell. We get a lot of immigrants in Tartarus, and everyone has different languages. This Spell changes your words into the ’Tartarus Unified Language’."

"What about the interpretation?"

Everyone would speak in the same language thanks to the Spell.

However, they needed to learn the language to understand its meaning.

"The Spell has an in-built interpreter that converts the language into pure thoughts, and allows you to understand them."

After talking with Kane, Neo entered the forest.

The trees loomed tall, their twisted branches forming a canopy that blocked most of the sunlight.

The air was thick with the scent of earth and distant, rustling leaves.

Suddenly, he heard a voice.

’Thanatos.’

Neo instantly expanded the range of his senses to the limit.

He frowned.

Thanatos was a name anyone in Tartarus should not know.

He searched around but found no one.

’Who said my name?’

’Was it Elementals?’

The voice had been familiar yet different.

Neo couldn’t place a finger on where he had heard it before.

’Who could it be….’

Neo’s thoughts stopped when he noticed the sun in the sky.

"Sunshine, did you call out my name right now?" he asked bluntly.

The Spirit should not remember Neo.

The timeline had been changed, and Sunshine never met Thanatos.

The golden sun remained silent, acting as if it was an inanimate object.

"Sunshine?"

There was no response.

Neo could only shake his head and return to his task.

Kyu?

"Is it just me, or did your pet just look at me and ask you if I’m its lunch?" Velkaria asked while sweating.

After Neo broke through multiple ranks, Beelzebub was strengthened as well.

He was now stronger than her.

Knowing the little glutton, she was worried she couldn’t escape if he tried to eat her.

Kyuuuu.

"He is saying he always wanted to try something from his same species. That’s why he wants to eat you."

"We are not the same species! We just look alike!" Velkaria shouted, stunned and horrified. "And if we were from the same species, eating me would’ve been cannibalism!"

Kyyu?

Velkaria choked when she heard Beelzebub’s question.

"No, cannibalism isn’t something to eat. It means…." She looked around, trying to decide the best words that would stop Beelzebub. "It means a person you should never eat. Yeah, that’s what it means."

Kyu Kyu?

Beelzebub said something similar to ’is that so?’ and jumped down from Neo’s pocket.

The ground beneath him was covered in soft moss, cushioning his movements as he dragged himself over to Velkaria.

While both were worms, Velkaria was not even half the size of Beelzebub — Beelzebub was much more pleasant to the eye.

He could down her with a single gulp.

Watching her closely, Beelzebub started to salivate.

Kyuu-

"Fuck no!"

She swiftly transformed into a floating eyeball.

The flew around and hide behind Neo, trying to use him as a shield.

Kyu?

’I ran away because you looked like you were going to eat me!’
