Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 769

Chapter 769: He Who Must Not Be Named

Even the Alliance had never truly trusted him.

To them, he was just a useful tool. A traitor who could betray again if it suited him.

"You were miserable, even when you thought you’d won."

Neo didn’t feel rage.

Only a faint pity for how far a being could fall.

But then the world around him shifted.

Neo suddenly felt something change deep inside his existence.

The Eye of Existence Watcher — the same one Xel’thar had stolen — was merging with him.

A wave of energy pulsed through his body.

His head felt heavy, his vision distorted.

Then, alarms started ringing in his mind.

It felt like he was being connected to something enormous. Something far beyond comprehension.

A wire, stretching into a vast unknown, linked him directly to a sleeping giant.

And that presence...

It was old, wounded, and resting.

But as Neo connected, it stirred.

A deep voice echoed inside his mind. It was heavy, distant, and filled with authority that could crush stars.

"Who is there?"

Neo froze.

The pressure from that voice alone nearly shattered his thoughts.

Then the voice grew clearer.

"A... Heavenbreaker? Is that you, Ultris?"

Golden lights began to materialize around Neo.

The alarms in Neo’s mind exploded.

His instincts screamed at him to stop, and cut the connection immediately.

That golden glow. That familiar pressure.

Neo remembered it.

It was the same golden presence he had seen when he met the Time Looper Void.

The ancient being that had trapped himself in endless cycles to fight this very enemy.

This was the same one.

The one the Time Looper had been fighting since time unknown.

"Heavenly Records," Neo shouted, clutching his head, "cut off the connection!"

No answer came.

The existence on the other side was awakening, slowly opening its eyes after ages of sleep.

Neo’s body trembled.

Intense anger rose from within him.

He quickly realized it wasn’t his own.

The feelings came from his bloodline.

He could feel his heart pounding painfully as his blood reacted on its own.

His ancient blood remembered something. A battle that had once taken place between their kind and this entity.

The mark of Ouroboros on his back suddenly burned.

The ancient serpent’s symbol twisted violently, reacting to the same presence.

Darkness poured out of Neo in thick waves.

The energy twisted and coiled like living shadows, lashing against the ground.

"CuttheconnectionNeo!"

The voice of the cacophony screamed in his mind.

Its tone was sharp, desperate, almost panicked.

It was warning him to cut the connection before the Existence of He Who Must Not Be Named woke up.

"LetgooftheeyeCutitoffnowBeforeitwakesup!"

Neo tried. He really tried.

He focused his will, trying to separate himself from the Eye of Existence Watcher.

But the connection didn’t break.

Instead, bright screens appeared before his eyes, flickering rapidly.

[Error! Unable to cut the connection!]

[The link is being maintained from the other side!]

Neo gritted his teeth and tried to rip the eye away from his soul, but the link was being forcefully maintained from the other side.

"You... have grown weaker, Ultris," the voice said again.

The entity was still half asleep, speaking as if it was dreaming.

But the sound of its words made the space around Neo distort.

He staggered.

His breath came out in heavy bursts.

The Eye of Existence Watcher glowed violently.

Golden light crawled up his arm, burning through his veins.

Neo’s surroundings began to shake.

The space around him twisted, and every layer of existence seemed to ripple in pain.

The being was locating him through the Eye.

Golden energy burst around Neo.

And at that same moment, the seed of Darkness inside Neo — the one that had been silent for so long — began to tremble.
