Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 62

Her laziness exasperated Ruby.

'You will regret it if you let the boy move on his own.'

Ruby explained in simpler words.

Mastery over elements was done by experiencing the element and getting as close to them as possible.

Death element was the same.

Neo's high mastery over it signified he killed thousands, if not tens of thousands, of people.

His murders were probably being hidden by his brother.

Letting someone as dangerous as Neo roam unsupervised was asking for a disaster to occur.

'That's what you are worried about?'

'I don't need to monitor him.'

'The principal and teachers probably are keeping an eye on him at all times.'

'Haiz, is this the naivety of childhood or the complacent of the strong?'

The Spirit's sighs irked Leonora.

Ruby spoke before Leonora could complain.

'You of all people should know one can bend the rules.'

'It's easy for that boy to harm others without breaking rules.

'Moreover, his brother is not to be trifled with.'

'The boy is moving around as if nothing happened even after the commotion in the country of Mermaids.'

'If he wants he can act as he wished in the Academy too.'

Leonora doubted Neo could do anything on the academy ground.

However, Ruby's words planted the seed of doubt in her heart.

What if Neo's brother could really save him from consequences?

Wouldn't that mean he would go berserk in the academy whenever he felt like it?

'Oh, it feels like trouble is soon to arrive.'

Leonora spoke as if the matter had nothing to do with her.

'Leonora, the boy antagonized the lightning clan already. There is no guarantee he will not target your Clan next.'

'If he starts a storm, the responsibility to deal with the aftermath will fall over you.'

Leonora stiffened.

As the de facto leader of Poseidon Clan circle, all problems inside the academy were to be solved by her.

She didn't like work and ignored everything.

But, if Neo was actually a mass murder, and he aimed for her Clanmates, she would have no choice but to intervene.

Her hands trembled at the thought of soon to arrive workload.

'N-no. What should I do? I don't want to work.'

'Join his team. If you keep an eye on him at all times, you can stop him before he does anything.'

Leonora thought about it.

Ruby's words made sense.

However, unbeknown to her, Ruby's words were a lie to trick her.

Her intentions were to stick close to Neo so as to…

'His sword… what is it? It's a Spirit, but not a Spirit at the same time.'

'I need to find out and eliminate them both if it's something dangerous.'

…

"Ch-Christian, let him come here."

Hearing her words, Christian frowned.

He let Neo pass.

But Neo didn't move.

'What was that? I definitely sensed bloodlust aimed at me.'

Neo scanned the area with his senses.

He couldn't find the source of the Bloodlust.

Suddenly, a voice appeared inside his head.

Spirit…. aiming…. for us…. both… dangerous…

Obitus' presence became strong when it spoke.

However, it returned to sleep soon after.
