Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 44

Felix was bewildered.

Why was she attacking her own people?

He tried his best to understand the situation in order to escape, or survive at least.

Morrigan approached Daniel.

"W-why did you attack me? I was following your orders!"

"My orders?"

While her voice was calm, the faint thunderbolt noise reverberated and another invisible attack landed on Daniel.

There was no time to dodge.

He felt as if he was about to die.

"I've made my words clear. Do not touch Neo Hargraves. He would die by my hands."

"Lies! I was clearly told by—"

Before he could complete his words, a sword pierced his neck.

He gagged on his blood.

"No need to waste your time on idiots like him," Lucas said.

He wiped the blood from his sword before returning it to the sheathe.

"Why did you kill him?" Morrigan asked.

"I relayed your words to everyone in the tournament and he still did what he wanted. We can't let them make mockery of our clan."

Morrigan stared at his sly grin.

It had to him who ordered Daniel to kidnap Felix behind her back.

He killed Daniel to hide the proof.

"I don't remember asking you to intervene," she said and blasted him with a much stronger attack.

Lucas was hit, unable to do anything.

He crashed into a rock.

"I apologize."

He smiled as he stood up.

Watching him irritated Morrigan.

She turned to Felix.

Felix spoke before she could say anything.

"W-wait! I can help you guys! Don't kill me!"

His expression mirrored his mental state.

'These Zeus Clan lunatics! They killed a student for no reason!'

'Fuck! I was following Arthur because he was strong! If I knew I would get involved in this mess, I wouldn't have approached him!'

Felix, a weakling, was confident in his ability to assess people's strength at a glance.

He followed Arthur because he was strong.

Only monstrous geniuses like Morrigan, Leonora, and Mars, could defeat Arthur.

Felix planned to hug Arthur's thigh and reach a higher rank with his help.

But.

Dammit!

"I don't need your help," Morrigan said.

"You do! You definitely do!"

Felix shouted before she could refuse him again. _{freewebnoveℓ.com}

"Ask your siblings, Arthur is strong!"

Among those who harassed Felix and Arthur were Zeus Clan members.

Arthur only defended against their attacks.

It was unthinkable for a no name demigod to be able to stop geniuses like them easily.

The Zeus Clan members reacted.

"Don't lie! We didn't go all out—"

Zoe was interrupted by Morrigan.

"Is he stronger than you?" Morrigan asked.

"No."

"Are you sure?"

Zoe bit her lips before she answered.

"…I couldn't get a proper grasp on his strength. But I'm sure I'm stronger!"

"I hope you didn't lie."

Zoe and a few others shivered.

Morrigan ignored them and looked at Felix.

"As you can see, we don't need your help."

"Now, now, please don't be so hasty."

He could defeat those high and might existences?

'Why don't you say your Kingsley name is real and you are Great Sky God, Zeus, son.'

Nathan scoffed.

"What if you have to fight all at once?" Neo questioned.

"That… I can't guarantee I will win."

Arthur pursed his lips.

"Actually, I take my words back. I am stronger than them, but there is one I can't see myself winning against."

"Who is it?"

"Morrigan di Montaigne. That's her name, I think."

Neo went silent after hearing his words.

"I will deal with her," Neo said. "Take care of others while you rescue Felix."

"I can try, but are you sure? She has a Lightning Seed."

"I don't think we have another choice."

They reached the mountain's base and entered the jungle.

Nathan couldn't contain his curiosity anymore.

"What is a Lightning Seed?"

"It's a booster of sorts."

Arthur tried to put his thoughts into words.

"It gives a major raise to overall abilities. At her mastery level, she should be able imbue her normal attacks with lightning."

His vast knowledge shocked Nathan.

Although he wanted to believe Arthur was lying, there was undeniable certainty behind his words.

"Do you… have that lightning seed?"

"No? It's too draining to use."

Neo could only sigh inaudibly.

Lightning Seed was one of the secret techniques of Montaigne Family.

If they knew Arthur was dissing it and calling it inefficient, they might've lost their sanity.

It didn't take them long to reach the Zeus Clan base.

"We are here," Nathan said.
