You are connecting with user Root, I believe it is root. Your error is clearly a credentials error.

Error: ER_ACCESS_DENIED_ERROR: it's occurred because of permission.

As far as I understand your above code you need to change Root to root 

var mysql = require('mysql');

var con = mysql.createConnection({
   host     : 'localhost',
  user     : 'root',
  password : 'my_pass',
});

con.connect(function(err) {
  if (err) throw err;
  console.log("Connected!");
});

Had a similar issue where I was able to login using the CLI with same creds, but didn't work with mysql2 in nodejs (mysql-server 8.0). Solved it by using % in place of localhost:

CREATE USER 'user'@'%' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON db.* TO 'user'@'%';

instead of

CREATE USER 'user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON db.* TO 'user'@'localhost';
