Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 399

It wasn’t just heavy.

Her aura contained something far worse.

The girl’s presence seemed to swell.

Her golden eyes shone with a cold chill as she stared down at Neo.

Dragon Fear.

The ground trembled beneath them.

The air thickened, warping and twisting as if space itself bent to her will.

A primal fear crept into Neo’s mind—

"I suppose this long should be enough?" Neo asked calmly.

The girl flinched.

He seemed unaffected by her ability, Dragon Fear.

"….How are you okay?" she asked.

"While the attack was powerful, it was a mental attack, and I’m a Darkness user. I have a strong mind."

Ava’s looked at him with a tense gaze.

A strong mind…?

That wasn’t unusual.

Almost everyone on Tartarus had that.

Her ability was supposed to work on all of them.

It had broken stronger men, reduced warriors to trembling wrecks.

Yet Neo—

He shrugged it off like nothing.

Suddenly, a third, familiar voice echoed through the room.

"Good job, Ava. I will take care of it from here."

The space around the second chair rippled like a disturbed reflection in water, revealing a man who had been invisible until now.

"I wasn’t invisible. I was in a pseudo-Gap," the man—Kane—said, having read Neo’s thoughts. _{freewēbnoveℓ.com}

Instinctively, Neo shielded his thoughts to stop anyone from peeking into them.

"Oh, you can do that?" Kane questioned, surprised.

His tousled brown hair and carefree smile were unmistakably familiar.

He looked no older than Neo remembered—if anything, he looked younger.

"I’m sorry about my daughter’s test. I asked her to do it," he said with a small laugh. "You can call your friends now."

With a snap of Kane’s fingers, the barren room changed.

The plain wooden walls shifted and expanded.

Within moments, the simple hut transformed into a luxurious, two-story house.

Kane now sat comfortably on a plush sofa, while Ava disappeared into the kitchen, preparing tea.

Neo remained standing near the doors.

’He doesn’t remember me.’

Neo had expected this outcome.

He had prepared for it.

He had told himself it wouldn’t matter.

Kane was alive—that was enough.

But standing here, watching him smile and speak as if they were strangers, made Neo’s heart clench.

He didn’t understand why. He shouldn’t have felt this way.

But he was sad.

The other three Executioners entered the house.

"Have a seat," Kane said, gesturing toward the chairs.

They nodded and followed his words.

Ava returned from the kitchen, carrying a tray of tea.

The cups clinked softly as she placed them on the table.

The group talked as they took a sip of the warm tea.

"Why are you people here?" Kane asked.
