Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades

Just as she swam in-between the coral reefs, a problem appeared.

…Her chest was stuck in the narrow entrance.

"…"

"…"

Neo and Amelia stared at her with awkward gazes.

Turning his head, Neo subconsciously compared Elizabeth with Amelia.

'There is a room for lot of development.'

He shook his head in disappointment.

It seemed Amelia failed to inherit good qualities from her mother.

Or maybe, Amelia took after her birth mother?

Neo wouldn't know since he never met Elizabeth's twin sister.

"Mom, do you need help—"

A pulse of wave passed through the undersea and suddenly the seabed was ripped apart until miles.

Elizabeth, after changing the underwater landscape, turned to them.

"Amelia is claustrophobic, so I enlarged the entrance. It shouldn't be uncomfortable anymore."

"Huh? I'm not claus—"

"You are, sweetie. You just don't know because you've never been in confined spaces."

Her expressionless face was saying to never bring up the topic again.

Neo would be lying if he said his eyes didn't wander to inappropriate places.

He moved his gaze away before Elizabeth could catch him.

It was already morning by the time they entered the underwater cave.

Thankfully, it was not destroyed by Elizabeth's rampage.

Amelia left the underwater cave after a short rest.

They ran away from the Mermaid Country without bringing anything except food.

So Amelia was going to buy the basic necessities from the city while Neo and Elizabeth used the Divine Water pond.

"You can enter the pond first," Elizabeth told him.

Neo didn't refuse.

After making sure Elizabeth was looking in another direction, he removed his clothes and sat inside the Divine Water pond.

He could feel his exhaustion disappearing.

It was a good idea to listen to Elizabeth's advice.

Just when he thought that, Elizabeth entered the pond…

Naked.

Neo's mind replayed the scene like a broken tape recorder

Elizabeth's slender white neck gave way to delicate shoulders, leading down to a perfectly proportioned bust.

Her waist was narrow, accentuating the soft curves of her hips, which moved with a fluid grace.

Every time she took a step, the twin mountains quivered ever so slightly.

They were BBB.

Big, bountiful, and beautiful.

They swayed with the movements of her arms, making him think that they had a strange force of attraction.

Neo was slightly surprised when she sat inside the pond and they floated.

His blood rushed towards his waist and he felt his little brother saluting at the tear-jerking sight.

"You shouldn't stare so openly," Elizabeth told him with a smile.

"I'm not the one who came naked even though there was someone in the pond," he said. "Besides, I'm letting you see me. So, it's an equal exchange."

Elizabeth chuckled at his boldness.

She looked below after breaking the eye contact with him.

Her eyes slightly widened.

She approached him and grabbed his little brother.

"It's bigger than my hand," her voice was filled with astonishment.

Neo.exe crashed.

All he felt was her hot breath tickling his skin and her soft, small hands on his little brother.

It was dangerous.

He could feel the dam threatening to burst.

"Amelia told me she saw you naked. No wonder she was afraid after seeing this."

Elizabeth stretched her thumb and pinky and tried to measure his little brother.

She was close enough that a little more and he could touch those mountains.

Neo didn't know what to do.

After coming to this world he learned a lot.

But nothing prepared him on how to respond to this kind of temptation!

His pain tolerance, aura of death, and otherworldly reflexes.

Nothing was useful!

Neo moved on his instincts guidance and grabbed a mountain with his right hand.

His fingers sunk into the marshmallow-like ground.

Acting on autopilot, he pinched the red peak.

"W-what are you doing?"

"I'm following your lead."

Neo answered in a daze.

He failed to notice the blush on Elizabeth's face.

Before he could check the firmness of the other peak, she let go of his little brother and retreated.

"L-let's not digress. I came here to teach the Tremor-ranked Spell we had the deal about."

"Here?"

"The Divine Water pond will help you replenish your Divine Energy quickly. This is a good place to learn the Spell faster."

While Neo's brain told him the Spell was important, his little brother explained not everything was about strength and some chances came only once in a life-time.

Neo agreed with his little brother.

He approached Elizabeth.

"We can learn the Spell, but shouldn't you teach me first about—"

"What are you two doing?"

Amelia's icy voice rang.

Neo turned his head and noticed her at the cave entrance.

She stared at him with a cold, disgusted gaze.

Seeing her, his little brother returned to sleep instantly.

His desires were vanquished and he came to understand the futility of the immoral temptations.

Neo got out of the pond.

He dried himself with a towel before dressing himself.

"Why do you always come at the worst time? I'm starting to think it's your hobby to peek at naked people," he spoke.

"Y-you!"

She glared at him as if he was her mortal enemy.

Which wasn't exactly wrong considering he was getting steamy with her mother.

"Why were you naked with him, Mom?!"

She turned to Elizabeth after she realized speaking to Neo was like shouting at a rock.

"I didn't want to ruin my clothes," Elizabeth answered with a flushed face.

She seemed more embarrassed now than she had been with Neo moments ago.

"What do you mean?" Amelia narrowed her eyes.

"We don't have money. If I ruined the clothes I had on me, I would've nothing left to wear," she gave an excuse.

Amelia's face stiffened.

She had, in anger, refused to bring the money, weapons, and anything else from the Mermaid Country.

Even the food was fruits Elizabeth collected from the wild.

Back then, Amelia said she would rather die than take anything from their country.

It wasn't her fault they were penniless.

But she could've brought money if she wanted.

She wasn't completely faultless.
