Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 256

Sweat dripped from his brow as he struggled to maintain his composure.

Charybdis, meanwhile, recovered from his earlier wound.

His winds grew stronger, forming razor-sharp gusts that sliced through Jack's remaining forces.

The undead were helpless cut down like paper sheets put inside shredder.

The tornado he summoned enveloped Jack.

He was lifted into the air and slammed him against the ground with bone-crushing force.

Jagaan broke free from the undead colossus with a roar.

The debuff Jack used to weaken it disappeared and Jagaan's strength returned.

The Sovereign charged again, this time trampling over Jack's remaining minions with ease.

Jack staggered to his feet, breathing heavily.

The legion of undead was in tatters, and his own energy was rapidly depleting.

Charybdis tilted his faceless head mockingly.

"You were doing so well," the Sovereign grinned. "Why did you stop?"

Jack clenched his fists and glared at them.

Without warning, he slammed his hand into the ground.

Black lightning – mimicked lightning created from shadow elementals - crackled outward in chaotic arcs.

The earth trembled as skeletal hands erupted from the soil.

Spectral Soldiers—ghostly, armored warriors wreathed in necrotic energy—rose to form a phalanx around him.

Each specter carried ethereal weapons and shields that hummed with condensed dark elementals.

"Cute. Let's break them."

Charybdis laughed.

The Sovereign of Winds launched razor-sharp air blades toward Jack and his spectral army.

Jack raised his hand, and a mimicked Lightning Barrier surged into existence.

The dome of crackling black lightning absorbed the wind attacks and sent bolts of energy lashing back at Charybdis.

"This might be a bit out of my league," Jack smiled grimly as he fought against the three S-rank Sovereigns.

…

Neo and Apollo stood against each other.

Their aura flared, clashing like wild beasts.

Just when Neo thought Apollo had no more tricks, Apollo's eyes started to glow, and cracks appeared on his skin.

Light seeped out from the cracks.

"…!?"

Neo jumped back.

His instincts screamed at him, telling him to run.

"Crazy fucker, what are you doing? You'll kill yourself," Neo said through clenched jaws.

"Divine Transformation…" Apollo answered with hazy eyes and hollow voice.

The glow from his body intensified, and the cracks on his skin widened.

Searing heat that distorted the air flared around him.

He forcefully increased his synchronization with his Spirit.

Neo's face contorted.

He recognized the technique and its suicidal risks.

Divine Transformation.

True Technique Name: Spirit Fusion.

The technique could be used by reaching a 100% synchronization with one's Spirit.

It allowed the user to unleash their Spirit's full power and use those powers.

Divine Transformation boosted the user's strength by multiple folds.

But Apollo wasn't waiting for natural synchronization.

He was forcing it.

Such recklessness would kill him before the technique activated.

Even if he survived its activation, he would die soon after.

"You'll die just to stop me!?"

His back slammed against a tree that shattered upon impact. _{ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm}
