Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 165

Neo doubted his eyes.

"I came to help you."

Elizabeth stood in front of a silvery portal.

Beyond the portal, he could see the puppet maids of the principal.

"I thought high rank Demigods were prohibited from entering the Labyrinth?"

"That is master's problem. She will handle it."

Elizabeth motioned him over with a flick of her finger.

The Divine Energy in the air wrapped around Neo and picked him up.

"Let's go."

She carried him into the portal.

The two appeared in a mansion on a hillside.

Elizabeth brought Neo inside the mansion.

She entered the biggest room and laid Neo on the bed.

"Th…thank you…"

Neo's voice cracked.

Knowing he was safe, a wave of relief washed over him.

He felt accumulated exhaustion from the past days crash over him at once.

His vision blurred.

"Sleep."

Elizabeth gently covered his eyes, urging him to close them. _{freēwebnovel.com}

"You need to rest."

…

Neo woke up, refreshed.

He tried to move when suddenly a sharp pain tore through his body.

"Where am I?"

He looked at himself.

Tucked in a bed in an unfamiliar room, wrapped in bandages and antiseptics, wearing clothes that weren't his.

"The last thing I remember is I was about to devour the Minotaur's heart."

He massaged his brows.

The memories returned to him slowly.

"Was that really Elizabeth…?"

Neo smiled bitterly.

He owed her for saving him.

"Still, how did she know I was there? I don't remember telling her I went to the Labyrinth."

Neo decided to question her Elizabeth when he met her.

He tried to stand and nearly fell when his broken body refused to move.

Just then, Neo noticed the piece of paper tucked beneath his pillow.

[Come down to the mansion's training chamber at 9 pm. Until then, rest.]

"I guess I don't need to question who wrote this note.

"The demanding tone is quite clear."

He chuckled and sank back into the bed.

The battle with Minotaur left him with serious wounds.

For one, he could not use his Death affinity for a few days.

His core had been strained beyond its limit during the battle.

With nothing else to do, he called his status.

[Unique Skill Immortal has been mastered.]

[Three Unique Skill evolutions unlocked.]

"Three? That's nice."

The unique skills gained at Mythic-rank were different.

They were born out of synthesis of his experience and the power of his bloodline.

Unlike the previous skills — Death and Immortal — that were unique to his bloodline, the new skills would be his and his alone.

He would be the only person to possess them.

"I hope the roulette is something good."

[Please choose one.]

[1. Eternal: Become ageless and gain resistance against status ailments. (+10% resistance)]

[2. Undying Berserker: Continue fighting even after your death. (Duration: 24 hours)]

[3. Transcendence: With each revival, your body and soul grows stronger. (+1% boost)]

Neo re-read the skills description.

"They are too good?"

He could not believe his eyes.

"Is this a dream? Since when did my damned bloodline give good skills?"

Eternal made him ageless and gave him resistance against status ailments.

There were many types of status ailments.

Poison, mental corruption, debuffs, and curses.

There was no need to explain the power of status ailments, since Elizabeth almost died to a curse.

"Resistance alone is strong, but Ageless? This is like a dream come true.

"I won't need to worry about Time Erosion if I choose this skill."
