Chapter 280: Shocked is an understatement

Grey walked to a raised podium. The room was seething with Hercules'men while the elders were already waiting for Grey at the raised podium.

Grey moved closer to them. He was wearing a blue suit and a black mask. And he was followed by Aphrodite.

"Is Hercules truly dead?" Someone asked suddenly, from the audience.

There were a few minutes of dead silence as everyone thought over the question. It was palpably clear that they believed the news.

"It doesn't matter if he is. I will always be for Hercules!" Someone said suddenly, with a raised hand.

"Yes, me too!" Another person joined in and soon, they were all saying the same thing.

"I spread the news," Grey started suddenly. "About my death! " He added quickly.

The look on each man changed briefly at the announcement.
