Supreme Master In The Apocalypse

"Can you still stay this late?" Hugo's brows furrowed as he looked at his watch. It was already 5 in the evening, and he could see that the sun will already set in a few minutes.

"Yeah," A deep sigh escaped out of Abigail's lips as she answered. She avoided Hugo's gaze in fear that he would notice what was wrong.

But, just a glance and Hugo could already see that there was a problem with the way Abigail was acting. He should have known better. Abigail wouldn't go out this long if she wasn't feeling sad in their house.

"What happened?" Hugo asked. He saw the sadness in Abigail's eyes.

"Nothing," Abigail answered

"Then why are you acting that way? It is unusual for you to go out this long? I am your friend is it tell me if something was bothering you." Hugo smiled sincerely. He can see how hard it was for Abigail to live under her parent's roof.

Even though Abigail's parents were kind, the way they pressure Abigail to do things, wasn't. She had to comply with whatever was asked for since she was basically living under their care.

And even after all, she still loves them with all her heart. They have done a lot of things for her, so she felt guilty about disobeying them,

"Well, it was just I missed you!" Abigail chuckled. She clung to Hugo's arms as if her smile would hide her problems.

"Abigail…"

Abigail pouted. "It was just my parents was pressuring me on doing something that I do not like."

Hugo patted Abigail's head lightly. "I won't ask for more information if you don't want to share more." Hugo chuckled. "Well, do you want to go out? Since it's still 5 pm then we can search for a nearby park and go there to walk until you like."

When Abigail saw the time, she scratched the back of her head. "Wouldn't your mother and father be worried at you? I called you suddenly earlier." Abigail looked at him worriedly.

"No worries. I promise you that i wouldn't leave you alone. You trust me, right?"

"Of course!" she exclaimed enthusiastically.

The corners of Hugo's lips rose up. He smiled widely. "All right, just give me a few minutes and i will look for a place where we could go."

A moment of silence surrounded them. Abigail was looking at Hugo as he opened his phone to search and browse n the internet. She couldn't help but smile since she felt that the atmosphere was quite sweet. She felt as if she was already Hugo's girlfriend with the way that they were acting right now.

The truth was Abigail's parents were pressuring her to do well in their business, but she didn't like it at all. She just wanted to lay back and rest.

Looking at the numbers was like looking at a blank piece of paper. She couldn't understand it at all! It was as if her mind was blank when she look at them.

"If I will be given a chance, then the only thing I wanted to do was lay down and still earn money." She grinned when she thought of it.

"Let's go, I already saw a nearby park here." Hugo smiled at Abigail.

"Do you want me to fetch my car? You can wait here for a few minutes, so you won't get tired.' Abigail already took a step when Hugo's hands pulled her, trying to stop her from leaving.

"Why would we need a car, when we can teleport using my power?" His smile became wider when he saw how Abigail's eyes widened in fear.

"N-No—"

Before Abigail could even resist, Hugo grabbed her hands. He closed his eyes and teleported right in front of the place that he found.

Just like her first time teleporting, Abigail's sight turned into circles. She held onto his hands tightly when she could feel her whole world spinning.

'Even though I like Hugo, I really hate this power of him.' she didn't hesitate to think of that.

It took her a few minutes before she had the strength to open her eyes.

"Wow!" Amusement was written on Abigail's as the view around her was revealed.

"Let's go."

Hugo and Abigail walk together silently, with them being side by side. She roamed eyes around the area. All she can see was the color green, with green fields and green trees standing still everywhere.

Benches were placed on every side. A statue can be seen in the middle, grand flowers were placed on the bottom of it. Each tree was decorated with lavish lights.

"I told you to trust me, right?" Hugo proudly stood in the middle when he saw the amusement on Abigail's face.

'Yeah, yeah, whatever," Abigail rolled her eyes as she sarcastically answered.

The both of them continued to look around. Since it was Hugo's first time going into this place, as well, he was getting amazed by what he was seeing too.

Some buildings were even shaped like a circle, some were normal looking one, while some were like towers, decreasing in its size as they went further up.

A large fountain was in the middle, and because of its clear water, the reflection of the green plants around the place can be seen. The place is covered with green leaves, and different varieties of plants were located around.

Hugo averted his gaze to the fountain, hearing the sound of water falling together with the sound of the water flowing from the lake where the fountain's water came from.

Birds and Butterflies were everywhere. The chirping sound was creating a melodic tune, just like music in both of their ears.

When Abigail saw it all, the only thing she could think of was that everything looked perfect in her eyes.

'I and Hugo went here as if we were dating,' his cheeks reddened at that thought

What should we do now?" She asked him after they strolled around for minutes. They were currently resting at a bench in front of the fountain, where the water was continuously flowing.

"I have heard the recordings in the USB that you gave to me," Abigail hesitantly looked at Hugo. She looked around, trying to see if there were people around. When she saw none, she sighed in relief.

"It was really Mr. Julius's fault that the incident happened." Her eyes flew to the ground. She watched her feet that were playing with the grass.

'Yeah, I figured it out when I heard the recording too." Hugo answered as he looked away.

He has heard a lot of information based on the recording. Just like how Headmaster Leon was friends with all of them at the very start.

"Do you think, Headmaster Leon will stay on the right path if ever?" Abigail curiously asked him. She knew that it must be hard for Headmaster Leon since he was friends with the three men.

And now, with Rome's death, he must be mourning since even though he wasn't into what they were doing, of course, the four of them had shared a lot of memories all together.

"Do you want an honest answer?" Hugo sighed as he picked up a stone on the floor, throwing it on the ground afterward.

"Yeah," Abigail looked at Hugo will curiosity lingering in her eyes.

"Well, I do think that if something will happen and Headmaster Leon will be in a tight place, then he would consider to be belong to Julius's and Damien's doing." He didn't hesitate to answer.

'I just hope that Headmaster Leon will prove me wrong,' there was a slight glint of hope in his mind when he thought of Headmaster Leon.

But just like what he always says, there was a possibility for everything. And as long as Leon would continue to turn a blind eye to their evil doings then the possibility of what he said was truly high.

"You know what? We are talking so seriously. We are here to relax and not think of any problems for a while."

Hugo got up from his seat and went on the bridge. Seeing Koi fishes below, swimming in the clear water of the lake. Hugo couldn't help but smile as he saw some fishes running away from each other, some were even playing.

Roaming his eyes around the area, a container captured his attention. He noticed that a box containing their food was placed there. With an excited smile plastered in Abigail's face after following Hugo's gaze, she stood up, almost jumping.

Hugo nodded, making her more excited. Gathering Koi's food with her hand, Abigail's smile grew wider. She saw how the different kinds of fish, swam in her direction as she threw their food.

Hugo smiled as well as he helped Abigail on feeding the fish. They already forgot what they were talking about earlier.

However, because they were so focused on what they were doing, they didn't see the eyes that were watching in their direction. And as the sun sets down, the people cautiously walked closer to them.
