Supreme Master In The Apocalypse

Hugo's expectation has been surpassed. He was looking at the whole apartment, right in front of his eyes. It was a 2 story apartment with a spacious garden on the outside.

Hugo's eyes roamed around. The modern-inspired apartment was standing proudly with its glass panel windows and white-colored walls.

He took a glance over the wooden door in the middle. He followed Elle inside, touring around. Chairs that were made out of wood and floors decorated with a swoosh and laced filled his eyes. It was like looking way back to Abigail and Julius's mansion.

Even though Hugo was a man, he was slowly and deeply admired the paintings up above. "This is definitely worth it for the price,' he couldn't help but utter as they walk furthermore.

A large chandelier hung just on the center of the whole large living room. There was a modern-looking chandelier in the middle of the dining table, being hanged. It was like falling droplets of water in the air.

On the side of it was a stair, that leads to the second floor of the apartment. The 3 bedrooms were all on the second floor, leaving more space on the 1st floor.

The whole apartment was fully equipped with things that one would need in order to live decently.

"This is such an expensive-looking apartment. You should have priced this a little bit higher." Hugo glanced at Elle, who was on his side.

Elle chuckled. Her cheeks were turning red by the compliment that she was getting.

"I'm glad that you think of it that way. However, I am just starting, so this price is already high enough for me." She shyly answered, turning her head away.

Elle cleared her throat. She smiled at Hugo and asked, "How is everything so far?"

"I told you, it's pretty good." Hugo tilted his head to the side. "I will pay the full amount already, so you don't have to worry."

Hugo took out his wallet from his pants. When Elle saw it, she noticed that it was packed and huge.

"Here," Hugo smiled as he took a hefty amount of money from his pocket. Good thing was that Elle accepts cash payment.

Elle gladly accepts the money given to her. She opened up her bag and took out a few papers. It was a contract containing all the rules and consequences if ever her property was damaged.

"If you wish to extend your stay then you should say it to me as soon as possible." Elle leads Hugo toward the living room.

In there, she took out a ballpen and signed the contract in front of Hugo. Hugo did the same as well after she handed him the papers.

"It was such a nice thing that our transaction was smooth." Elle gladly smiled as she placed the paper back in her bag.

Since Hugo was unfamiliar with the neighborhood and he hadn't been here in his previous life, he wanted to ask Elle if he could explore around.

"Well, I want to explore the town, so can you show me around? The dinner is on me don't worry." Hugo looked at Elle straight in her eyes as he ask the question.

"Sure." Elle nodded as she took her bad and held it in her hands.

"I want to see if there are any groceries nearby and if the security is really tight in the area."

Elle, understanding what Hugo meant, couldn't help but be curious. "May I ask why do you need such high security?" her forehead creased as she thought about it. It was her first time hearing someone value the security more than the layout of the house or the pricing.

"You have seen the video, right? I'm sure my friend will be popular among people so you know…" Hugo hinted in his last sentence.

Elle nodded.

Both of them left the house. Elle gave 2 keys to Hugo saying that one should be in the house every time while the other one can be taken away by the visitors.

The bills of the house will be separately paid by the owner and they will come every 15th of the month.

Hugo was gladdened by the fact that the house has wifi connection already with its tv working with different channels.

He should visit this apartment once in a while or should he just stay here for a week or so once he successfully saved those 3 people?

Hugo and Elle were just walking on the street. Hugo saw that the neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. There was a playground meters away from the apartment that he have rented.

The apartment owned by Elle wasn't that close to each other as well. He just knew today that Elle owns 2 more apartments in this area.

He actually thought that it was a good business idea. 'Should I ask her next time how this works? I can have income with this.' He thought as he kept on looking around.

'Or should I invest in her business so that I can just do nothing?"

He thought that the second option was better than the first one. He just needs to know more about Elle and her business.

Who wouldn't want to just sit and relax while earning money? It will be actually nice for him to experience that.

With Elle's talent, he was sure that his money wouldn't be put to vain.

Hugo looked around. After a few minutes they arrived at a well known convenience store called 8/12.

"This is a convenience store where you and your friend could buy food or grocery. This is just a 5-minute walk from the house and they do deliveries as well as long as you're just close by." Elle informed Hugo as they went inside.

Hugo nodded. He was familiar with the convenience store, but it was his first time knowing that they do deliveries as well.

"Can I shop now and just ask them to deliver it the day after tomorrow?" he asked as he grabbed a basket.

"Sure." Elle nodded. She went closer to the cashier and took out a form.

"Here, fill out the form before you proceed to check out." She smiled as she placed it on top of Hugo's palms.

Hugo smiled back at Elle as he read the contents of the paper. It was mostly the time when they will deliver the grocer, the address, and the name of the person.

Hugo filled out the form before he proceeded to go around, grabbing some items without even looking at the price tag. He made sure that there were enough food, beverages, and cooking materials for 4 people.

He remembered that once he made them drink the pearl that was given to him by Thalia, then the 3 people will immediately be well.

Now, he just needs to make sure that those 3 will not be moved to another location.

'Fuck! I should make sure that they are still in the hospital tomorrow!" Hugo exclaimed silently as his feet stopped in front of the cashier. He placed two baskets on the top and let the cashier handle it for him.

Hugo tried scrolling down his phone to see if there were any updates regarding the condition of both Julius and Noah, but all he could see were video clips of Hendrix.

His brows furrowed when he saw the recent video of Hendrix that was uploaded 5 minutes ago.

"Fuck!" His eyes widened when he saw that Hendrix was outside a gay bar.

Hugo quickly went over to Elle. "I need to go now. I'm sorry." He uttered as he took out a thousand bills from his wallet giving it to her. "Can you pay for this? It's just an emergency."

Not having time to wait for Elle's answer, he ran outside and look for a secluded place where he could use his power to teleport.

'I need to go to where he is now before something might happen!'

Hugo closed his eyes as he thought of the location, teleporting in a place near it. He just couldn't teleport right in front of the gay bar with eves around him from everywhere.

He ran towards the gay bar quickly. He didn't mind the stares that the people were giving in his direction.

The gay bar in the picture was so popular on the internet that even he knew it. It was part of different scandals since a lot of influential people were seen going inside.

It was a strip gay bar that usually attracts guys or those who wanted to try something new. Of course, this attracted a lot of women's attention too since the male inside all looked very handsome.

"Hendrix!" Hugo shouted out loud when he saw a group of people surrounding the man.

Hendrix's eyes widened when he heard a familiar voice.

"Excuse me, ladies," he winked at the women who were surrounding him.

The crowd was split in half as Hendrix step forwards. The woman who saw Hendrix's wink couldn't help but be mesmerized at how handsome the man was.

Hendrix waved his hands cheerfully in Hugo's direction.

"What are you doing here?"
