Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 98

Neo closed his mouth abruptly.

'I'm here to have her join us on the S-rank mission.'

'It's better to be careful of what I say.'

He opened his mouth. _{frёeωebɳovel.com}

"I rang the doorbell twice.

"There was no answer and I suddenly heard you scream.

"That's why I entered the room."

"As you can see, there is no problem here. So, get out."

"…"

Neo took a deep breath.

'Don't react to her taunts. That's what she wants.'

'I'm here for a job. Focus on it.'

Leonora was the only heroine he disliked with passion.

It was not easy for him to get along with her due to his personal bias.

"Look, can we just talk? I have something important I need to discuss—"

"Shut it and leave. I'm busy."

"Like what?"

He pointed at her room.

"I bet you haven't attended classes during the past days and you didn't join us on the missions.

"What was important enough to keep you busy?"

"I was beating the Enma Shrine 3."

"Enma Shrine 3…?"

"Yup, I beat in it just 2 days."

Her smug expression confused him.

"What's Enma Shrine 3?"

"You don't know about Enma Shrine 3? I guess I shouldn't have expected much from an idiot."

She clicked her tongue.

"It's the game that will receive Game of the Year for this year.

"It already broke most records.

"Even though it came out only 2 days ago, it had more sales than entire Sanguine Penguin series combined!"

Leonora grew excited as she spoke.

She stopped, stared at the empty air next to her and coughed.

Suddenly, she became calm.

"You skipped classes just for a…."

Neo stopped speaking.

He couldn't chastise her.

After all, he had been in the same situation when Elden Ring and AC Odyssey were released.

He was a worse gaming addict than Leonora.

'Was she such a hardcore gamer?'

He didn't like it.

He didn't like how he shared his favorite hobby with her out of all people.

"Just?

"That's what you say because you can't understand the greatness behind Enma Shrine 3

"I bet you can't defeat even the first boss."

"…What?"

Neo failed to realize how smoothly and confidently Leonora was talking when she was within her room.

He stopped caring when he challenged his inner gaming addict.

"You think I can't do what you did?"

Gaming was the only field where he could call himself the best—

His face scrunched up when he recalled he lost the last game he played in his previous life.

"Fine. I'll show you your place."

He went past her and picked the other controller.

"Hey, what are you doing!? Leave that alone!"

"I'm just proving your words otherwise."

Neo saved her DLC progress and created a new save file for himself.

Leonora was about to stop him until she saw he understood the know how of gaming.

'Is he angry because I said he couldn't clear the first boss?'

Leonora was exasperated.

She couldn't follow his train of thoughts.
