Nico finds himself in an amusing predicament as he reflects on his secret regarding Jules-Albert, something he has never shared with anyone, including Hazel. The situation becomes even stranger as he discusses the notion suggested by Hades, his father, about blending in and experiencing life as a modern teenager. The contrast between his supernatural existence and the typical teenage experience emphasizes the absurdity of trying to fit in while being a demigod.

Hades' plan to help Nico engage with the mortal world is both unconventional and humorous, centering around the idea of using a zombie as a mode of transportation. It highlights the significant gap between the realities of mortal life and the supernatural elements Nico is accustomed to. This blend of fantasy and relatable teenage struggles makes for an interesting narrative, showcasing Nico's journey to adapt and connect with everyday life.
