Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 5

Neo breathed loudly.

His chest heaved up and down.

Death was exhausting.

His fingers twitched uncontrollably and he had trouble moving his body.

"Dammit, it feels shitty to be revived."

After taking a few deep breaths, he was ready to go again.

He submerged himself in the pond and activated his skill.

Death.

The sensation of dying was no longer alien to him.

He had the leisure to carefully feel it this time. Previously, he had been too nervous to pay attention to his senses.

The gravity disappeared and an instantaneous pull jerked his body.

He felt cold and his innards burned.

Opening his eyes, he found himself in the Underworld.

"Child of Monarch, why did you return?"

The Grim Reaper, still at the same place they met last time, asked Neo.

Neo patted the sticky grains of sand off his body and stood up.

After the last success, he was more confident.

"I'm here due to the revival ritual. Can you send me back?"

"We can…"

The Grim Reaper, unable to understand what was happening, nodded.

He believed Neo, inexperienced in the Revival ritual, might've mistakenly sacrificed himself again.

"We will send you back, but please, do not return by mistake again. Death is not a child's toy. The Living should not touch it too many times."

The Grim Reaper decided to forgive Neo for the mistake.

After all, he carried the bloodline of the Great God Hades.

He was royalty.

"Then, goodbye, O Child of Monarch. We wish you a blessed life."

The black clouds rushed out of the Grim Reaper and sent Neo's soul back to his body.

He woke up with a groan.

The water splashed inside the pond, making him slightly cold.

"Brrr…"

"I should finish it quickly or I might catch cold with this dammed weak body."

He dived into the pond and used the Death skill for the third time.

The familiar sensation passed through his body.

"Again?"

"We hope we are wrong but…. O Child of Monarch, are you doing this on purpose?"

As soon as Neo woke up on the beach, he came to face an angered the Grim Reaper.

The flames in the Grim Reaper's eyes flared.

"Do you dare belittle Death? Even if you are the Child of Monarch, you are not above Death!"

A chill crawled up Neo's spine.

The air turned heavy and it was crushing Neo under its weight.

Neo's legs started to shake.

His teeth clattered.

However, his eyes remained calm.

There was not an ounce of fear in them.
