Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 269

Neo had huge amount of memories.

The hundreds of years of his own lives.

The thousands of people whom he purified with his blessing and gained their memories.

And lastly, the fourth vision of Sphinx where he spent eternity.

The memories of Eternity were sealed by his mother, but the emotions he felt during those countless years were not sealed.

Despair, hollowness, fear, grudges, insanity, love, ambition.

Everything Neo gained during the eternity was still with him.

The Shadow saw everything at once when it looked into Neo's memories.

Its foolish actions tore apart its sanity.

idon'tWANTtoliveihatelivingsomeonekillMEpleasepleasepleasePLEASEpleasekillME, the Shadow screamed.

Before Neo could do anything, the Shadow exploded, having killed itself.

Neo stared at the remains of the Shadow.

Shaking his head, he devoured it.

The memories of Neo Hargraves poured into Neo.

He was born to two humans who didn't awaken their demigod lineage and he had an older brother.

Unlike Neo Hargraves, who had a healthy physique like his mother, Henry Hargraves had a very weak body.

It led him to develop an inferiority complex against Neo.

The relationship between the brothers had been strained since childhood.

Neo Hargraves didn't pay much attention to it. He was content with his life.

The Hargraves family was a sub-clan of the Hephaestus Clan.

The High God Clan treated his family nicely even though they didn't have any demigods in their lineage.

Neo Hargraves had been happy.

But everything changed during the centennial tournament.

As an event that happened once in a century, it was highly celebrated, and almost every member of the Hephaestus Clan participated in it.

The day, which should've been one of the happiest of Neo's life, was torn apart when the sky shattered, and thousands of eyes poured out of broken sky.

A storm brewed in the skies above the arena, turning daylight into an ominous twilight.

The crowd's cheers turned to screams as grotesque monsters descended.

They were a mass of writhing eyes that seemed to pierce through souls.

Just looking at the grotesque monster made Neo Hargraves' eyes burst, and he was turned into a cripple.

Neo Hargraves thought he would die.

The only thing he remembered was his mother's voice telling him everything would be okay.

His parents left saying they would do something about the monster.

They never returned.

Only Neo Hargraves and his older brother Henry Hargraves were left.

'B-Brother…. Mom and dad… hic… hic… where are they'

Neo Hargraves remembered crying in his brother's embrace.

Both of them hid under the wreckage, praying the thousand-eye abomination wouldn't find them.

'I'll g-go and look for mom and dad. It has been hours since t-they went out and didn't return,' the little Henry had said to Neo.

Don't go. I'm afraid.

Neo kept the words he wanted to say in his heart.

He understood it.

His brother hated him, and now Neo was a cripple who could die at any moment.

He was a burden.

Instead of sticking with Neo, it was better for Henry to escape alone.

'Hey, what are you thinking!'

Henry had flicked Neo's forehead. _{freewebnoveℓ.com}
