Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 119

'No, that can't be possible. Every person has only one Shadow.'

'The original Neo can't have multiple Shadows.'

Neo did not understand what was happening.

He exhaled.

'I'll think about it later. First I need to complete the task before me.'

He stood in front of Arthur's Shadow.

The Shadow did not try to fight back.

It knew its fate was sealed.

"Any last words?"

"Last words?" Arthur's Shadow smirked. "Shadows never die.

"We'll meet again and, next time, I'll make sure you stay dead.

"You damned traitor--"

Neo sliced the Shadow's head off its shoulder.

Quest completion notification appeared in his vision.

He ignored them.

"Dammit, I feel like shit even though I won."

Neo used Immortal.

There was nothing wrong with using his skill in the battle.

Still, he felt like had cheated.

It wasn't the type of victory he wanted.

"Fuck, this is almost as if I'm weaker than Arthur."

Neo clenched his fist.

He would surpass Arthur.

He didn't care if Arthur was the protagonist or the hero who was destined to save the worlds.

Neo was not going to give up.

Depth Level 3

Lucas activated the device.

A spatial ring formed around the crack in the space -- the Corner -- and it tried to forcefully close the crack.

At the side, Nathan used the communication device to alert the other teams on Depth Level 2.

Mars, Felix, and Cassandra used the device to close their Corners.

The three Corners were closed at the same time.

"It's done. The Window will soon close.

"We need to leave."

Lucas created a portal.

Arthur didn't step into the portal immediately.

"Arthur, we can't waste time."

"..."

Arthur nodded and entered the portal with downcast eyes.

The group moved towards the doorway of Depth Level 2 at a quick pace with help of portals.

They met with Felix, Mars and Cassandra.

"Where are the others?" Mars asked.

Arthur shook his head.

Mars face hardened.

He did not say anything for a few moments.

"I see..."

A sigh escaped his lips.

"Let's leave," he said.

The group returned to Depth Level 1 quickly and left the Window with the help of the portals.

The principal, Charlotte, and Elizabeth, disguised as Anna, were waiting for them.

"Good work. The medical team will take care of the injured.

"All of you can take a rest for three days. You'll receive your reward after that." _{freēwēbnovel.com}

Charlotte did not ask about the missing students.

It was easy to guess what happened to those who did not return.

She looked at the slowly closing giant tear in the sky.

Suddenly, Elizabeth took a step.

Rings of fire materialized around Elizabeth.

Before the students could realize what was happening, Charlotte's dolls teleported them away.

She stared at Elizabeth.
