Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 764

Chapter 764: No Longer Holding Back

"Detonate them if you dare!" Kaelus roared. His voice echoed across the collapsing space as he lunged forward. "You’ll die with us!"

His massive fist was just an inch away from Neo’s face.

The force of the swing distorted the air around them.

Kaelus believed no one—no sane being—would ever set off so many Black Suns at once.

That belief was his undoing.

"All you can do is bluff—"

Neo gave the command.

The Black Suns activated.

The world turned white.

The explosion tore through the Independent Space with a noise that wasn’t sound at all, it was pressure, light, and raw energy fused together.

Reality itself seemed to scream.

Kaelus didn’t even have time to move.

His body, soul, and Core, were erased instantly, vaporized before his mind could register what had happened.

Velion tried to resist.

He spread his wings and shouted in Dragon Tongue, his words shaking what little remained of space.

His mana wrapped around him, forming barriers and shields, but they shattered as soon as the wave hit.

The Black Suns consumed everything.

Space folded in on itself.

Time stuttered.

Velion’s body broke apart piece by piece.

His scales peeled away like burning paper.

His wings were gone.

Half of his soul was melting under the sheer heat of the explosion.

Yet, as his vision blurred, he caught sight of Neo in the center of the destruction.

Neo wasn’t moving.

He was burning too.

Velion’s cracked lips twisted into a smile.

Then he began to laugh.

It was a dry, broken laugh, one that came from deep inside his chest.

Even as his body crumbled to ash, he laughed louder.

Because Neo was dying too.

Not even his immortalities could protect him from this.

He could reincarnate, yes, but that would not save him.

’[I] will make sure you can never reincarnate into to the past,’ Velion thought with a mad grin, knowing his end was near. ’You’ll wake up in the future, when [I] am already too strong. You will never defeat him. You will never have your revenge.’

His laughter continued as his body dissolved completely, the sound fading into the roar of collapsing space.

Then, everything stopped.

The explosions froze in midair.

Light and sound halted.

The burning debris stopped moving.

Even the shattered fragments of the Independent Space hung still like pieces of glass caught in amber.

Velion blinked, or thought he did.

’What...?’ he thought. ’He stopped time? He can stop so many Black Suns?’

That was something no Stage 6 God could do.

To stop even one Black Sun’s explosion required the energy reserves comparable to that of a newborn universe.

But Neo had stopped all of them, hundreds at once.

’How does he have so much energy?’

Velion’s thoughts trembled.

For the first time in ages, he felt true fear.

Neo lifted his hand.

He turned back time.

The shattered space began to mend.

The broken fragments reversed, sliding back together as if the explosion had never happened.

Velion’s wounds closed.

His body restored itself. His soul reformed, glowing faintly.

And then, to his disbelief, Kaelus reappeared too, alive again, breathing heavily, his wings spread out in confusion.

"I... I’m alive?" Kaelus muttered, looking around.

Velion didn’t answer.

He couldn’t.

His throat was dry, and his body was trembling.

He watched Neo in silence, cold sweat running down his back.

Now, finally, he understood what kind of enemy they were facing.

The fear he felt wasn’t the fear of death.

It was the kind of fear he had only known once before, when he stood before the Prime Death.

Neo looked at them, his expression unreadable.

"You couldn’t survive that," he said calmly. "But you resisted well. Perhaps you’ll do better the second time?"

"...What?" Velion’s voice cracked.

Neo raised his hand again.

The previous Black Suns had been erased to their existence as a paradox.
