Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 260

"You.... look angry... uncle....."

"Don't you dare call me that!"

Angered, Zeus summoned his final assault.

Hundreds of bolts combined in the sky.

Their light illuminated the battlefield like a second sun.

Zeus brought the combined lightning down without hesitation.

The impact was cataclysmic.

A deafening roar consumed the world as a torrent of mana obliterated everything in its path.

The ground heaved violently, splitting open, while the resulting shockwave flattened what little remained of the surroundings.

When the light faded, silence reigned.

Neo was gone—not even his ashes were left.

The battlefield was no longer recognizable.

Nothing remained but a smoldering crater devoid of life.

Zeus and Apollo stood in the aftermath.

Apollo coughed, blood staining his lips, and his expression was one of a horror.

"I told you." Zeus said as he stared at the empty crater. "You can't regenerate if there is nothing left."

He was about to turn away and leave when suddenly he noticed two rings of red lightning crackling deep inside the crater.

One ring was as wide as the wrist, and the other one was half of its size.

"…?"

Zeus frowned.

"What's that—"

He stopped speaking and swiftly jumped back.

His senses warned him of a powerful danger in the vicinity.

Under Zeus' confused eyes, the rings of red lightning became erratic.

They flickered wildly, illuminating the crater's depths with an eerie, pulsing glow, and…

You can't kill what is dead.

The red lightning changed its shape, barely becoming humanoid.

….

Jack wiped the blood from his forehead and steadied his breath.

The overwhelming pressure of the three Sovereigns was suffocating.

But after Neo increased the output of his Black Dawn of Despair Spell, a constant surge of power amplified Jack's every move.

"This ends now," Jack said.

He had to hurry.

Not only was Neo burning the little Divine Energy he had left for the Black Dawn of Despair Spell, he had to gone to fight Zeus too.

'I need to get out of here and help him.'

Jack didn't understand why the Sovereign were letting Zeus and Neo fight unhindered.

But he didn't have time to stop and think.

He raised his hand, summoning the remnants of his necrotic energy into a single, massive construct.

Bones from the battlefield shot toward him like iron to a magnet, swirling and fusing until a colossal necrotic dragon formed behind him.

Its hollow eyes burned with dark flames, and its roar reverberated through the forest like thunder.

The Sovereigns hesitated for a moment.

"That's… interesting," Charybdis mused, his voice was tinged with amusement and concern. "But do you really think this will save you?"

Jack didn't respond.

He dashed forward, faster than before, closing the distance between himself and Charybdis in the blink of an eye.

His blade, now strengthened with Neo's power, cleaved through the wind barrier Charybdis summoned.

The Sovereign of Winds barely managed to sidestep the attack.

Jack didn't let go of the opportunity,

He pressed forward relentlessly.

He swung again, his strikes faster and more precise, forcing Charybdis to retreat.

Meanwhile, the necrotic dragon lunged at Jagaan.

Its massive jaws snapped around the elephant's tusks.

The two colossal creatures wrestled fiercely, and caused ground to shake beneath them.
