Trial (2)

" Explain to me the circumstances surrounding your dual identity and how you lied on the system contract? " Hades demanded as his first question as he caught Max off-guard. 

Of all the questions that Max could answer cleverly, this was one such question where proving his innocence was tricky. 

He had deliberately evaded the system contract with the intention of keeping everyone in the dark about his true identity. 

Now, spinning the story any other way was going to be difficult, while conveying the truth would potray him as a conman who was untrustworthy. 

" Mind you, if you lie, I don't even need a lie detector, the queen shall judge your words and let me know " Hades warned as he made it clear to Max that he did not need any truth orbs to determine the authenticity of the information that Max was going to provide and that lying was absolutely not an option.
