Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 132

They had heard Silas' complains, but they ignored it.

After all, it was rare for youngsters to accept political marriages so easily.

Silas married Quella after a few months.

The start of relationship was rocky.

Silas and Quella barely knew anything about each other.

Although it was a marriage born of out their villages' needs, they fell in love with each other as time passed.

Slowly, Silas came to love Quella for more than just her beauty.

Their son was born five years after the marriage.

Silas, the current village head, named his son 'Ron' after his late uncle.

He was happy with his life.

Just when he thought his life could not get any better, Quella gave birth to twins, Iris and Isla.

Watching his children grow, Silas realized his ambitions.

He wanted to develop his village to make sure his children had no lack of resources.

As time passed, so did Silas' fame.

The village slowly became a town.

Silas gathered talented people from around the place to help him govern his growing town.

Quella continued to assist Silas in the administration and other areas.

Over the years, she gave birth to two more children.

Silas' love for her only increased.

He never took another wife and treated Quella with same care as when they first met.

Time continued to pass.

Silas reached eighty, and he was on his deathbed.

"Quella... a-are you there?"

"I'm here," she whispered softly.

Quella took his trembling hand in hers gently.

Tears streamed down her face as she watched Silas weakly reach out, struggling to grasp her hand.

Their children were gathered around.

They were crying.

"Que-Quella, are you there….? I can't see you."

"I'm here. I will a-always be here."

Her voice broke.

She took out a silver cube she always carried with her and placed it between her and Silas' hand.

"This is?"

"Silly, this was your first anniversary gift to me."

She smiled, recalling how Silas had forgotten their anniversary back then.

He gave her the cube to make it look like he prepared the gift beforehand.

She had carried it with her since then.

She knew the cube was something Silas kept close to himself since his childhood.

"H-how many years ago was this?" Silas asked.

"It was…"

Quella continued to talk to make sure Silas did not feel lonely.

Before long, Silas stopped breathing. _{freewёbnoνel.com}

Her tears did not stop.

…

Neo gasped.

He was back in the hall with Sphinx.

Disoriented, he looked around.

Tears streamed down his cheeks.

"How was the vision, Inheritor of Death? Did you learn something after eighty years?"

"You!"

Neo threw away the table with a snap of his wrist.

He grabbed the Sphinx by its collar and raised it in the air.

"Send me back to my family! Send me back to my world! My wife, my children are waiting for me—"

"That was a fake life. It was a mere fragment of the past."

Neo froze.

He understood the Sphinx's words in his head.

Countless emotions crushed his heart.

Anger, Longing, Loss, Despair.

Emotions that weren't his own.

Emotions that belonged to 'Silas'.
