Chapter 690: Chapter 690: Death Anniversary (Part 2)
Even though the branch family members didn’t want to leave, under Corvus Hades’ iron-fisted rule, one by one, they obediently left.
Thus, even though the mansion is enormous, in reality, Corvus Hades alone is the true master.
Usually, the mansion of The Hades Clan is always quiet.
But now, it’s obviously quite different from before.
Raina North couldn’t help but ask the servant beside her, "Did something happen with The Hades Clan? Why are there so many people?"
The servant was slightly surprised upon hearing this and glanced at Raina North.
Raina North continued to look at the servant, "Can’t say?"
"No, no," the servant hadn’t expected Raina North to genuinely not know and paused before saying, "Today is the memorial day of the master and the mistress. They are members of The Hades Clan’s branch family, here specifically for the commemoration."
Only then did Raina North suddenly realize, right, today is the memorial day of Corvus Hades’ parents.
Corvus Hades is different from her and Elias Hawthorne.
Despite seeming unruly and wild like a feral child, in truth, he had an extremely happy childhood and adolescence.
His parents were both heirs of wealthy families, yet they united through free love rather than arranged marriage, living in immense harmony after marriage. They were an envied couple admired by the entire Umbral Zone, and even the world.
Three years after their marriage, they had a son named Corvus Hades, and their life as a couple turned into a family of three.
As a child, Corvus was not only adorable but also exceptionally smart; a true genius. Many people openly and covertly envied this perfect family.
Until the year Corvus turned fifteen, when his parents were killed by their adversaries.
The Hades Family, having lost its head, faced unprecedented attacks as countless forces surged up, trying to devour The Hades Family whole.
The other branch family members were also fighting among themselves, each wanting to become the next Family Head and take charge of the immense Hades Family.
Corvus became the sole direct descendant of The Hades Family, rightfully its heir, and it’s unknown just how many assassination attempts he survived, both overt and covert.
One could say that Corvus surviving at all is already a miracle.
But, no matter how, Corvus survived and grew up.
The grown-up Corvus was no longer the naive and intelligent youth; he had become The Demon King, emerging from the depths of hell, leaving a trail of chaos and blood wherever he went.
If Corvus’ usual level of abnormality was a hundred, then now it is a thousand—no, ten thousand!
Anyone with a bit of sense, who still wishes to see the sun tomorrow, would on this day hide obediently, fearful of accidentally provoking Corvus.
Raina North was no different; even as mischievous as she was, she dared not provoke Corvus today and usually would stay as far away as possible.
Who knew, her years of wandering and comfort had led her to forget this important matter.
Raina North immediately said, "Well, I suddenly remembered something I have to do, I’ll visit Emperor Hades another day."
Saying this, without even allowing the driver to stop, she jumped directly off the electric cart, ready to leave swiftly.
Then, after not even taking two steps, she halted, seeing Corvus Hades in a black suit, leaning against a large tree, tossing an apple up and down in his hand.
He looked at Raina North, asking blandly, "Leo, where are you planning to go?"
