Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 366

Neo’s eyes narrowed.

"You know where I can find them?"

There was no response.

The Sphinx had vanished.

It’s message was clear: Neo had to come meet it if he wanted answers.

Neo clicked his tongue and stood up.

"Let’s go. We are leaving."

’To where?’ Velkaria asked.

"To the World of the Living."

Neo sent Velkaria back into his Shadow Space.

He took one last sweep through the palace, searching for Bael, only to be unsuccessful.

With a faint sigh, he turned around and exited the palace.

Outside, the Underworld’s landscape stretched before him.

"I greet thee, Prince," Veldora bowed. He had been patiently awaiting Neo’s return. "How was your meeting with the Monarch?"

"It was... unexpected," Neo replied.

Neo chose not to reveal Hades’ absence.

’Some of the Grim Reapers must have an inkling that Father is missing.’

’After all, nobody has seen him in ages.’

’The only reason Grim Reapers are hiding the news is to maintain stability and order in the Underworld.’

Neo’s thoughts churned as he stared at Veldora.

’Just like the Grim Reapers, others might have realized Father is missing.’

’They are silent because they lack confirmation.’

’But if they were to confirm it...’

His brows furrowed.

’The Underworld would be engulfed in chaos.’

’It’s going to happen soon.’

Neo clenched his fists.

He had to be strong enough to handle the coming chaos—or find a way to bring his father back.

"Prince, is there any problem?"

"No." Neo shook his head. "We should return to the Forest of All Beginnings."

"As you wish, prince."

They took off to the air.

Weeks passed as they traveled.

After arriving at Forest of All Beginnings, Neo used his Grim Reaper badge.

He activated it.

A swirling portal of black energy materialized before him.

Without hesitation, Neo stepped through the portal.

The world shifted around him.

Strange noises greeted him as he emerged—hushed moans and ragged breathing.

Neo opened his eyes to find himself back in the private coffee room where he had first entered the Underworld.

The warm light of the room contrasted sharply with the darkness of Underworld.

However, the scene before him was far from ordinary.

The shop owner, disheveled and half-naked, was busy with the waitress on the table.

The air was thick with awkward tension as their shocked eyes met Neo’s.

"Who are you—"

Neo swiftly appeared next to them and grabbed their heads.

"Sleep."

He activated his Mind Control skill.

The shop owner and the waitress slumped over and they fell into a deep sleep.

"Dammit, what kind of shitty timing is this?" Neo muttered as he massaged his brows.

The situation reminded him of his time with Daniel.

Neo had often been forced to endure watching Daniel indulge in his reckless urges, especially when the man was backed up.
