Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades-Chapter 537: What True Hell Looks Like [3]

How was he supposed to track down people whose existence was unknown to even Elementals?

And what would he do if he found them?

Fight them?

That would achieve nothing.

Neo would lose.

Before Neo knew it, his feet had taken him to Sphinx.

The Sphinx – a faceless man wearing a black suit – tilted its head.

"Judging by how strong you've suddenly become, it seemed you have regressed."

"Yes," Neo answered.

Silence stretched between the two.

Sphinx became confused when it saw how helpless Neo seemed to be. For someone who was always scheming to outsmart Sphinx, he looked pitifully lost.

It clicked its tongue.

"Stop acting like a lost puppy," Sphinx said. "Let's just finish our talk and then you should leave. I don't want to see your face anymore."

Neo did not respond.

"Neo Hargraves, you suddenly barged into my home, and demanded me to search information about your parents.

"So do you want the answers or not?"

Neo slowly raised his head. He 'looked' at the Sphinx.

Sphinx thought Neo was listening to it, and spoke,

"I've tried to access your parents' Records and the Records of the people Henry Hargraves brought into your house. Unfortunately, I cannot look into their past, and predicting their future is near-impossible.

"It demands too Causality–"

"Wait," Neo suddenly spoke up. "What did you just say?"

"Unfortunately I cannot look into their past and predicting their future is near-impossible."

"No, before that."

"I've tried to access the Records of your parents, and those people who you call your parents' reincarnation."

"No, before that."

"Just say what you want to say, Neo Hargraves. Stop spinning the words and trying to confuse me," Sphinx said, irritated.

"You said 'I' barged into your home and asked for information about my parents."

"Yes, I said that.."

"Did that really happen?"

"Yes."

Neo frowned.

Originally, he came to meet Sphinx because Sphinx called him for a deal. He would defeat Tartarus, and it would answer him where his parents' reincarnations were.

Since Tartarus did not exist anymore, it made sense the timeline was changed to fit the events.

Now, it was Neo who approached Sphinx one-sidedly.

"How is this possible? How did I not notice it before?"

"Neo Hargraves?"

Neo ignored Sphinx, and his mind churned.

Originally, he had approached Sphinx because it knew his parents' current reincarnations.

But, Neo also remembered another thing.

They were the words exchanged between him and Sphinx.

"Fine. Whose future do you want to know?"

"Mom and Dad's current reincarnation's future. I want to know…"

"Current Reincarnation?"

Back then, Sphinx's words made it clear it did not know his parents were reincarnating.

But it had called him by saying it would tell him the location of his parents' reincarnation.

Two facts.

Both were clashing.

Sphinx called him because it knew about reincarnations, it gave him the reincarnations' location, then it said it didn't know his parents were reincarnating.

As much as weird that event was, what was even weirder was how Neo never noticed this back then.

He had glossed over it as if it was something normal.

'How did I not notice this?'
