"You want to know my bloodline?"
He scanned the crowd, his gaze unwavering, cool as a winter's midnight.
"My bloodline is named 'Monarch of Death.'"
Silence.
A beat passed, no one dared to speak.
Then, he added,
"It's the bloodline of the great god of death, Hades."
For a moment, absolute silence blanketed the room.
The reporters took a few seconds to digest his word,.
Their faces shifted from disbelief to awe.
The conference hall erupted in a blinding flash of cameras and a chaotic flood of questions.
They spoke without waiting for their turn.
Their voices merged into a sea of incomprehensible noise.
Neo picked one of them.
"Neo Hargraves, are you sure about your bloodline? The bloodline of the great Death has never appeared in history.
"This is not a simple headline. If you're telling the truth, today will go down in the history books."
