Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 820

Chapter 820: Pathetic

For someone like Hades, who had lived for nine eons, the passage of time was weird.

When he did not pay attention, tens of thousands of years would pass in the blink of an eye.

He had only intended to take a breather, and calm his inner turmoil before meeting the child again.

However, years had passed before he realized.

He hurriedly returned to check the child.

And...

Emaciated bones.

Gaunt skin.

A voice that did not know how to speak.

And eyes desperately searching for warmth.

That’s what Hades saw when he saw the child.

’I’m pathetic.’

’I left a child neglected like this.’

Hades decided to send the child to someone who could give him the love he deserved.

His mind told him that this child was what he had been searching desperately for, that he should use him like a weapon he was supposed to be.

But he couldn’t do it.

In the end, he gave the child to the Witch of Gluttony, the weakest yet the one that loved everyone the most.

As years went by, Hades kept an eye on the child and the Witch.

He, who had long stopped smiling, would do so when he would watch their adventures.

He would also help them in secret.

When the Witch reincarnated, and the child was desperately searching for her,

Hades secretly helped him find Vornaz, the Demon of Ruin, and he used the favour the Witch of Time owed him to make her help the child travel through time and reach the Witch of Gluttony.

More time passed.

Their life was going happily.

The child would occasionally return to Hades’s palace, demanding a name.

But Hades would reject him every time.

’Someone like me doesn’t deserve to name you.’

More time passed, the child wanted to marry the Witch. He came asking Hades for advice.

But Hades just sent him away.

Because Hades was busy.

He was looking for a way to revive someone beyond Eons.

For Hades, who had grown attached to someone for the first time in eons, he did not want to watch the child die.

But nothing could be done.

The 10th Eon began.

The Witch went insane.

The child was dead.

Hades, despite being called the strongest, couldn’t do anything.

Then, the war began.

Hades faced Ouroboros, the Supremes, the Witches, the Demons, and the Devils.

Even the Witch, whom he had hoped to see marry his child, stood against him.

To kill him.

"Someone like you doesn’t deserve to live! You are a monster! A hypocrite who acts like a saint while wearing a mask. A bastard who wants to cause death and destruction!"

’You are correct.’

"All kindness you show is for your own good! Isn’t it just something you show because you know you are going to cause much more suffering in the future!"

’You are correct.’

"Everyone deserves to live! We have free will! You don’t get to decide whether we live or not!"

’You are correct.’

"We refuse to leave the fate of the Cosmos in your hands. We will not let you complete your heinous plans and cause destruction!"

’I’m sorry.’

They were correct. Hades was a monster.

Perhaps all kindness he showed was his way of asking for forgiveness for what he would do in the future.

Perhaps he was just a selfish person.
