Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades

His face became pale.

The monsters were dangerous.

But his senses were screaming that something far worse was coming towards them.

The new presence was ominous.

It was like…

Death.

The monsters suddenly started to fall like dolls with their strings cut.

They were dying.

Unlike Mira, George could sense the presence of Death killing the monsters.

All monsters fell within a few seconds.

The source of the ominous presence approached Mira and George.

The two noticed red lightning flickering over the walls of the labyrinth.

A gust of wind blew behind them—

"I'll be taking this key as a price of saving you two."

Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice rang behind Mira and George.

Their bodies froze instinctively.

Sweat poured down their backs as they felt true fear for the first time in their life.

The presence of Death was suffocating.

It was horrifying.

They didn't turn back to look at source of the voice.

Their bodies refused to budge.

Suddenly, the presence of Death disappeared along with the red lightning flickering in the vicinity.

The pressure holding them in their place was gone.

George and Mira fell to their knees.

"Huff! Huff! W-what was that?" Mira shivered. "Who rescued us?"

"It was the person who rescued us," George answered. "A powerful demigod."

Despite being thankful, no words of thanks left his lips.

Even recalling the presence made him shake in his boots.

Mira tried to calm her trembling limbs and checked the bag.

It had fallen behind them while they were fighting the monsters.

"The person who rescued us took the [KEY]."

"So that's why he rescued us."

George covered his face with a sigh.

Keys to Minotaur's chamber could be found throughout the Labyrinth.

It was not difficult to find the key, just time-consuming.

The real challenge was locating Minotaur's Chamber.

Barely anyone found it once every few decades.

After all, the Labyrinth continued to change every second.

Even if they found Minotaur's chamber, they would be wiped out by the mythical monster.

Minotaur was undefeatable.

It was common knowledge.

Mira and George heard a familiar notification sound.

George took out his device that was connected to his streaming camera.

[CuriousLady has sponsored 10,000 Coins to Mi&Ge.]

[Donor Message: I'll give you 50 times more money if you follow that person and capture their face on the stream.]

"H-huh?"

Mira and George felt their eyes would pop out.

10,000 Coins was equivalent to $25,000.

It was a huge amount of money!

"Our channel had a big fish like this?" George muttered in a daze. "But why does she want to…"

[CuriousLady has sponsored 10,000 Coins to Mi&Ge.]

[Donor Message: If you dawdle, you won't be able to track him anymore. Ask the question on the move.]

Instead of following the words of CuriousLady, they looked at each other.

'Do we follow her words? I'd rather not do it if it gets the person who rescued us in danger.'

'To be honest, she looks like a scout of an adventurer team or a Temple. Maybe that's why she wants to see the identity of the person.'

George and Mira talked to each other with signals only known to them.

They felt their guess was correct.

'We need to find him.'

The person who rescued them took the key.

He wanted to challenge the Minotaur, probably.

They had to find the person and advise them against it.

After all, it was impossible to defeat Minotaur for demigods at their rank.

"We should help him. He saved us," Mira said with a determined gaze.

George nodded.

He cast a tracker Spell and tried to sense the presence of Death in the vicinity.

It was faint, as if the person had experience in erasing his tracks.

However, he had been in a hurry to remove all traces, or maybe he had not bothered with it.

George, with his years of experience in find tracks, could follow the tracks if he put in some efforts.

The duo moved through the Labyrinth at a swift pace.

Wherever they went, they saw corpses of monsters.

Some of them had half of their bodies eaten.

As if someone chewed them and spat them out.

They heard an ear-shattering roar while they were searching for the tracks.

Their stream chat became lively.

The live member count reached 50,000.

Hundreds of messages were arrived every second.

[CuriousLady has sponsored 100,000 Coins to Mi&Ge.]

[Donor Message: That's the roar of Minotaur! Hurry!]

George and Mira bolted towards the source of the sound.

They had trouble breathing as they approached the location.

The thick amount of elemental Divine energy in the area was suffocating them.

They saw the doors of Minotaur's Chamber.

It was the first time in 28 years that someone found the place.

However, their joy was short-lived when they noticed the open doors.

They rushed ahead.

Inside, they saw the back of a black-haired boy facing the towering Minotaur.

"He looks like a high schooler."

The boy, resting his right hand on the hilt of his sword, stood against the Minotaur.

The monster looked like something straight out of a nightmare.

Mira and George felt their hearts freeze at a single glance.

The monster rushed towards the boy, swinging down its massive mace.

Mira and George tried to move, to rescue the kid.

However, their bodies were frozen due to the overwhelming presence of Minotaur pressing down on them.

Shockwaves erupted when the mace hit the ground.

The floor shattered, and Mira and George were thrown off their feet.

They flew back and hit the wall, breaking a few bones in the process.

"Th-the boy…."

The pain snapped Mira out of her stupor.

If they, far from the epicenter of the attack were injured, the boy must've been crushed to death.

"He must've frozen from fear."

Mira realized the kid had been unable to dodge the attack due to his body freezing up.

She clenched her fists, her nails digging into the palm.

"We couldn't save him…."

Mira trailed off when the dust cleared.

She had a hard time believing the scene before her eyes.

The boy was alive.

He had stopped the gigantic mace with a single hand.

The Minotaur roared.

It tried to pull back its mace and failed.

"I'm short on time."

The monster trembled.

It wasn't angry.

It was afraid.

"So, I'll finish it quickly."

The boy moved his arm.

It was fast enough that his arm turned into a blur before coming back to rest.

He had punched the air.

The shockwaves moved forward and hit the Minotaur.

A beat later, the Minotaur was smashed into the wall, with a giant hole torn open in the middle of its chest.
