Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades

Lightning Element Training Room

"The flying golems give 5 points.

"Your task is to destroy as many of them as possible while the bipedal golems attack you.

"The team with the highest points will win.

"Each room will have one winner."

The explanation was easy to understand.

Arthur looked around.

While he was searching for teammates, he saw Morrigan.

She was being ostracized by the Zeus Clan and their new leader Lucas.

"Morrigan, you don't have teammates either? How about—"

She passed him without acknowledging his existence.

He smiled bitterly.

"Looks she is still angry about the cafeteria incident."

Arthur looked around.

It was compulsory to form teams.

He would have to join the students who were left out.

"Sigh, I feel like a loner."

…

Water Elemental Training Room

"Thanks for letting me join your team," Felix said.

"It's no problem. I'm happy to help Neo's friends," Christian said.

Christian had an underhanded motive for teaming up with Felix.

He planned to have Neo owe him a favor for helping Felix.

'It was a good thing I became Neo and Arthur's friend,' Felix smiled.

She understood Christian's intentions rather easily.

"Who is our last teammate?" she asked.

"It's… Miss."

The two looked at the corner of the training room.

Leonora sat there on a bean bag made through a Water element Magic Spell.

She chewed a bubble gum while playing games on switch and wore earphones to drown out the noise from outside.

"Is that allowed?" Felix questioned.

"I wish it wasn't."

Christian held a defeated expression.

He had long given up on making Leonora work.

It was good enough she was attending classes.

Suddenly, Anna spoke from the second floor.

"The winning teams will receive 0.3 credits as a reward."

The students looked at her in surprise.

A smile bloomed on their face.

…

Death Element Training Room

"Doesn't that mean I'm confirmed to get 0.3 credits?"

Neo doubted his ears.

As the only person in the room, he was guaranteed to win.

Moreover, he did not need to share the credits with the teammates.

"Wasn't she trying to punish me?"

He looked up at Elizabeth.

"She is unexpectedly kind…"

Just as he thought that, a vine was whipped towards his head.

He barely dodged the attack.

The other bipedal golems pounced on him without warning.

A few of them slashed their elongated arms like whips while others attacked in close quarters.

Neo used Ocean's Embrace.

He punched the golem closest to him and blew off its face.

A punch came flying towards his chest.

Neo shifted his weight.

He grabbed the golem's fist after he dodged the attack with a hair's margin and flipped the golem over his head.

While the golems had advantage in numbers, Neo was experienced in fighting large groups.

He fought while carefully maintaining his stamina and Divine Energy reserves.

It should have been an easy battle.

"Dammit…"

Neo jumped back to create a gap between him and monsters.

"How am I supposed to take down the flying golems?

"I don't have any long ranged attacks."

He would win by default even if he didn't take down the birds.

However, he didn't like that.

"And what's up this damned element?

"Who named it Life Element? It should be called zombie element."

The broken golems stood up.

Their limbs and destroyed body parts regenerated.

"tch, their numbers are too much to use Necrotic Touch on them."

Neo was caught in a useless battle.

He wouldn't lose.

But he wouldn't win either.

"I guess that's my only choice."

He used the Aura of Death.

Silent red lightning crackled around his arms.

Neo tried to use Aura Slash from the distance, like he did in the Underworld, only to realize he couldn't.

Moreover, was harder to use Aura than usual.

"What the hell?"

Confused, he punched the golem approaching him.

The condensed aura of death seeped into the bipedal monster.

It couldn't regenerate anymore and died.

"Why can't I use Aura Slash?"

He could coat his arms in Aura of Death and punch with it

But the condensed Aura wouldn't go too far from his body, leaving him incapable of using Aura Slash.

Neo continued to fight.

He used Aura of Death only at critical moments.

The Divine Energy consumption of the Aura decreased after his mastery over Death increased.

However, it was still quite high.

"Dammit…

"Is it because of Obitus?"

Only after losing the sword did Neo realize he was depending on it too much.

The sword bolstered his ability to manipulate Divine Energy infused with Elemental affinities.

It was why he could use Aura Slash.

He became helpless as soon as he lost the sword.

…

Second Floor

Elizabeth pursed her lips.

Her eyes followed Neo.

'He is too strong for a newly evolved Grade 4 Awakened Demigod.'

She clenched her jaw.

'Did he devour something?'

The conversation she had with him in the morning.

She never received an answer due to the interference of the being from Underworld.

However, there were clues.

They were enough.

'He devoured a large number of targets.'

'The Darkness killed him, but he revived with his skill, and his masteries increased along with his stats.'

The sudden increase in masteries of Death and Darkness came at a risk.

Elizabeth clenched the railing.

'Why is he pushing himself to this extent?'

Neo was in a hurry to grow stronger.

Why?

Why did he need power to the point he would kill himself for it?

'I can't allow it.'

She had to stop him.

Even if he would hate her.

Elizabeth had seen many people whose only goal was strength.

None of them had a good end.

They regretted wasting their life on pointless pursuit of power.

She didn't want to see Neo in the same situation.

…

Death Element Training Room

Neo gasped for breath.

He had been holding his own until now thanks to the secondary stats he gained in the Underworld.

But he was reaching his limit.

'These bastards won't just go down!'

Pain surged through his core.

He had converted too much Divine Energy into Death infused Divine Energy.

"Huff! Huff!"

Only a single shot.

That was all he had left in him.

Neo stared at the bird-type golems in the sky.

He hadn't defeated a single one.

"Let's try it."

Neo pointed his finger at the sky.

He blocked all of his Magic Circuits except for the one on the tip of his index finger.

He aimed.

And.

Pushed out the condensed aura through a single point.
