Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 378

She slapped Elizabeth with all her strength.

The impact sent Elizabeth flying.

Her body slammed into a nearby chair, toppling it over.

The sharp sound of splintering wood echoed in the room.

Elizabeth’s cheek was torn open, and a portion of her skin was ripped away, leaving raw flesh exposed.

Blood dripped down her face, staining the floor.

Instead of crying in pain, she raised her head and glared at the woman.

The woman flinched.

"You—you bitch!"

The woman raised her hand to hit her again, but stopped.

She could see it.

Elizabeth would rather die than listen to her.

The woman’s face twisted.

She took a step back, her voice trembling as she barked,

"Use this to heal yourself. We can’t have you looking like a monster with that face at today’s party."

She pulled a weak healing potion and a small book from her Spatial Inventory and threw them at Elizabeth.

The bottle rolled on the floor, stopping near Elizabeth’s legs.

Without another word, the woman turned and left the room.

After the sound of her high-heeled shoes faded into the distance, Elizabeth lowered her gaze.

Tears slipped from her eyes.

She touched her torn cheek with trembling hands and—

The scene changed.

The blood stains on the floor had dried.

Elizabeth’s face was wrapped in bandages, stained with faint traces of blood that had seeped through.

The healing potion the woman gave her was a weak one, designed to work slowly over time.

Elizabeth couldn’t use stronger healing potions.

She wasn’t a demigod.

Her body would be overloaded by the Divine energy in them.

It would cause her to explode.

Elizabeth was busy reading the book the woman—her ’mother-in-law’—had given her along with the weak healing potion.

"…"

Neo, although frozen and unable to move, could see the content of the book.

He clenched his jaws due to the overwhelming pressure of Elizabeth’s subconsious mind crushing him and read the book.

It was a Spell for childbirth.

The contained a detailed method for creating life through magic.

The man and the woman would tear a portion of their souls and fuse them along with their Divine Energy.

This process would create an embryo that could then be nurtured and developed in specialized hospital chambers until it grew into a ’child.’

The entire process, the book claimed, would take only a few months.

’This Spell…’

Neo knew about it.

It was how children had been born for centuries since long ago.

Thanks to it, women no longer needed to carry children in their bellies for nine months, and labor pains had become a relic of the past.

Intercourse had long since ceased to be necessary for reproduction.

’This was the Spell I helped Gaia create during the apocalypse,’ Neo thought.

Back then, childbirth had become nearly impossible with normal methods.

The scene shifted abruptly again.

"Why haven’t you used the Spell?!" The mother-in-law’s glared at Elizabeth.

"I have not awakened my GodBlood. I can’t use Spells," Elizabeth said, giving a genuine reason, but an excuse nonetheless.

"You bitch!"

The woman raised her hand.

However, her hand froze mid-air when she noticed the look in Elizabeth’s eyes.

Elizabeth wasn’t afraid.

The the mother-in-law lowered her hand and spat.

Elizabeth moved her hands. _{freewebnøvel.coɱ}
