Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 142

He reached Grade 3 Awaked a few hours ago and he still couldn't use the flag post, so it was not counted as surpassing himself.

"Are you going to return to the world of living?"

"No, I'll grind some stats until the skill forcefully revives me."

Neo left the mansion.

He tered the forest.

The place was empty.

He did not find any monsters.

"It was the same last time. Is this place supposed to be always empty?"

Neo doubted it.

Forest of All Beginnings was where the souls appeared after their death in the world of living.

It should've be filled with monsters, Grim Reapers, and souls.

Suddly, he ssed a monstrous presce.

His heart froze with dread.

The presce was like a giant demon covering the sky.

"It's neither a soul or a monster…

"What is it?"

The presce was dangerous. However, it did not feel 'alive'.

Neo moved towards the presce.

Closing onto it, he climbed the trees and hid in them to scout the surings.

"What the fuck?"

Neo doubted the sce before his eyes.

The forest was crushed as if a giant being stepped on it.

A massive depression formed in the ctre of the destroyed region.

Hundreds of monsters sured the place.

"The monsters were gathered here."

They were trying to ter the destroyed forest.

The thick aura of death radiating from it killed them as soon as they stepped close.

"These monsters all are differt species. Why ar't they fighting amongst themselves?"

It was differt from the usual behavior of the monsters.

"Is there something inside that place?"

Neo stretched his sses.

Doing so made him visible to the monsters.

They ignored him and kept trying to ter the destroyed forest.

…!?

Neo stiffed.

After reaching Adept-mastery in Death, he gained Death elemtal vision and his sses of Death increased.

He could 'smell' the intoxicating sct of death in the air.

There was a treasure in the cter of the destroyed forest.

The monsters wanted it.

There was just one problem.

"That's my blood. There is no way I'll mistake the sct of my own God Blood." _{freёwebnovel.com}

Neo's blood, which was at the cter of the flatted forest, was the source of rich aroma of death.

"Everything makes sse now. This was why the forest was empty."

Neo recalled the first day he vtured into the forest.

He washed his blood in a river and ded up attracting a giant monster on par with Exalted Demigods.

"There is no way that monster would've left my blood here.

"It probably ded up fighting something else that wanted my blood and lost some of it here."

Goosebumps rose over his skin.

The forest was flatted as far as he could see.

The presce of death lingering in the area was ough to kill an Awaked Demigod as soon as they wt close to it.

If the collateral damage caused the tire landscape to change, Neo shuddered to think how the actual battle would've be.

"I better think twice before bleeding wh I'm Underworld."
