Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 78

"Before that, there is something we must discuss," Christian said.

"That is?"

"Who will be the team leader?"

His words made Neo smile.

"Why are you asking me about this? The answer should be obvious."

"That…"

Christian pursed his lips.

"I hope you can let Miss be the team leader."

Leonora raised her head from the screen with a snap and stared at Christian.

"I don't—"

"It's not about your preferences Miss.

"You are the leader of Poseidon Clan's faction. It should be clear you can't work under someone else.

"The family elders are livid because you chose someone outside of our clan to team up with.

"If you let him be the team leader on top of that you will be smearing mud on our Clan's name.

"The elders won't let go of his matter."

Christian's words made Leonora sulk.

She didn't want to take the burdensome position of team leader.

"Neo, I hope you will understand our position.

"Giving up the status of team leader is not an option for Miss.

"Of course, we will compensate you with the credits you would've earned had you became the team leader," Christian said.

It was a reasonable request.

Christian's down-to-earth approach made it difficult to refuse him.

But…

"I can't give up the team leader position."

Neo shook his head.

"If this was how it was going to be, you should've said it when I invited you to the team."

"That…"

Christian had no reply.

Leonora looked at Neo with twinkling eyes.

She couldn't be more happy.

"Besides, what's the problem with being under me?"

"Sigh, you might not know this.

"The God Clans look down on those from outside.

"It would've been fine if you were from a Great God Clan. Even a High God Clan would've worked

"But you aren't from either."

Christian wasn't looking down on Neo's origin.

He was revealing the harsh reality.

"There is no need to worry if that's true. I might not be from a God Clan.

"However, I have the bloodline of Hades."

"Bloodline of Hades? I guess that works…."

Christian stopped speaking.

He looked at Neo with a confused expression.

"Come again?"

"I have the bloodline of Great God of Death."

"Seriously?"

"Yeah."

Christian took a deep breath.

"What!?"

He shouted.

Mars and Jack's reaction was no different.

Even Leonora was looking at Neo with a stunned face.

"There has never been a demigod with Hades' Bloodline! How do you have it!?"

Christian grabbed Neo's shoulder.

"How!?"

"Calm down. It's not that big of news."

"How is it not big news?!

"You are the only person with the God of Death's bloodline! Do you realize you are the current Clan leader of the third Great God Clan!?"

"Oh…"

Neo hadn't thought about it.

Still, what use was the Clan when he was the only member?

"No, no, no, this has to be a joke. Are you trying to prank us?"
