Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 192

Elizabeth understood something was wrong.

She reread the message.

There was someone who wanted to meet her?

Was this a direct message or a code?

She thought back to everything that happened today.

The only thing that stood out was...

"The coffee shop girl in the disguise."

Elizabeth frowned.

"No, that can't be. There is no way Neo would go in such a roundabout way to have me meet someone.

"It doesn't make sense."

Then again, this wouldn't be the first time something about Neo didn't make sense.

For one, the chaotic time elementals around Neo suggested he had regressed 3~4 times.

However, given his current strength, Elizabeth knew he had regressed far more times.

He somehow found a way to eliminate the chaotic time elementals.

It should've been impossible for him.

But the truth was bare before her eyes.

"It doesn't hurt to try."

Saying so, Elizabeth closed her eyes.

She chanted a short Spell under her breath.

Her eyes hidden behind the eyelids glowed.

Her vision synchronized with every water surface within the city.

Thousands of images appeared within her mind.

Elizabeth looked through with a practiced motion.

"I can't find her anywhere."

The spell 'Water Reflect' was a powerful but widely known spell.

The countermeasures against it were not secret.

Elizabeth wasn't surprised.

Given the woman's disguise, she had expected this to happen.

The lead disappeared.

Elizabeth would've hit the roadblock in her investigation.

But she was an Exalted demigod.

She chanted more Spells, layering multiple chants over the Water Reflect Spell.

The images in her mind moved.

They showed her the memories of the water surfaces.

It was easy to find the girl with her new method.

Elizabeth followed the images in her mind and arrived at the location from where the girl disappeared.

The alley was dark and enshrouded in shadows.

It didn't take her long to find an invisible magic circle carved on the ground.

There were faint traces of Divine Energy around the place.

Elizabeth crouched and studied them.

"This must belong to the girl."

Her gaze shifted to the diagram.

"Teleportation magic circle. It will activate with only specific Divine Energy signatures."

The magic circle would explode if anyone else other than the registered Divine Energy tried to activate it.

Elizabeth stood up.

The Divine Energy around her churned.

She used her Concept.

The signature of her Divine Energy changed, turning similar to the traces of Divine Energy left on the ground.

She activated the magic circle.

Her gaze was on the chats displayed on her device.

"I hope this is something important, Neo."

Or she would make sure he regretted playing with her heart today.

...

Deepest part of Ares Clan Headquarters.

"You've returned home, boy."

"Greetings to the Clan Leader."

Mars bowed to the giant seated on the throne.

He had flaming red hair, fierce eyes, a deep, slow voice that made one's soul shudder.

Mars kept his head down.

He waited for the patriarch to say something.

"Boy…"

Mars' jaws tightened.

The man never called his name.

He knew it was how the man was.

The man treated everyone the same way.

"I've heard about the Press Conference of Hargraves Corporation."
