Supreme Master In The Apocalypse

"Do you want to go out with me later?" Abigail smiled sweetly at Hugo. She held his hands and made a pleading face. "Please?"

Hugo scratched the back of his head and stared at Abigail for a couple of seconds. 'Abigail looks cute when she's pouting,' he thought before saying his answer.

"I need to go somewhere later at 5 pm…" he briefly paused for a moment. "But I can accompany you until that time."

Abigail clapped her hands in joy. "That's perfect!" She smiled widely. But when she remembered Hugo's first answer, she immediately got curious.

"Where are you going later? Can I come?"

Hugo shook his head. "I'm going to work." he simply answered to ease her curiosity.

Nodding her head, Abigail adjusted her seat as they wait for their current teacher to dismiss their last class. It was already 1:42 pm, and they just needed to wait for 3 more minutes.

When the bell began to ring, the students started to stand up to fix their things. They didn't bother to wait until the teacher in the front finished her lesson.

"That's all for today. You may go now," Mrs. Isabela dismissed her class. Her eyes flew at the young man sitting in the middle. It was Hugo, who was currently talking to Abigail.

"Where are we going?" Hugo asked Abigail as their teacher dismissed their class.

"Secret. Trust me on this one." Abigail asserted. She stood up and pulled Hugo's wrist.

Hugo shrugged his shoulder and let Abigail take her somewhere. When they left the academia, they were greeted by Abigail's driver, Rommel.

Rommel was a 57-year-old guy. He has been working with Abigail's family for more than 20 years already. The man has a wrinkled face and almost gray hair because of old age.

"Hi. Sir. Rommel." Hugo greeted the old man.

Rommel bowed down and assisted both Abigail and Hugo as they ride in the car. "Good afternoon, Miss Abigail. Good Afternoon Mr. Hugo."

"To JSL's shopping center," Abigail uttered to the old man.

"Yes, Miss."

Hugo glanced over to his side. "Isn't that the newly built mall close here?" he questioned when he felt the name of the place was very familiar.

Chuckling, "You got it!" Abigail exclaimed.

Abigail came from a wealthy family. Their family owns multiple resorts and fast-food chains all over the world. That's why it was still a big mystery for Hugo about why the woman chose to be friends with him.

It was funny to think that he and Abigail has been friends for 5 years already, even though they have a different status in life.

"What are we going to do there? I told you that I can't roam around freely as I have work later on." Hugo reminded the woman when he saw how excited Abigail looks like.

Rolling her eyes, Abigail made a face. "I know!" sne sighed. "I'm sure you would like what we will do."

"Well, if you say that, then I will believe you." Hugo blurted out as he looked outside. It took them 10 minutes of ride before they finally arrived at the main entrance of the mall.

"We'll just be quick," Abigail assured Hugo as they entered.

The two of them came to the very top floor of the mall where antique shops were located.

"Are you sure we are going here?" Hugo's forehead creased. He knew that Abigail loves designer brands, so it was new for him to see her strolling around antique shops.

"Yes…" Abigail looked around until she saw the shop that she was looking for.

'Silver & Weapons?' Hugo's brows formed a straight line. He followed Abigail when she entered directly, without even looking back.

"Good afternoon, Miss Abigail, it's finally nice to meet you." The man who likes the store owner welcomes them with a huge smile lingering on his face.

Abigail nodded. "Do you who have the thing that I asked you?' She questioned with seriousness laced in her tone.

The owner quickly answered. "Yes, Miss." His voice quivered.

Even though Abigail was sweet and caring in front of Hugo and their classmates, she was different when talking to other people. She was an heiress, so when meeting with other people, she needed to act like one.

Hugo walked closer to Abigail. "What are we doing here?" he curiously asked.

"I am here to gift you something!" Abigail let out a deep sigh. "You know that your birthday is in next month already, right?"

"Yeah."

When the owner came back to meet them, the man was already not alone. There was a new guy on the back that looks like a helper and in their hand was a scabbard that was made out of metal.

"A sword?" Hugo's brow shot up as the owner gave it to him.

"It's pretty!" Abigail let out in satisfaction as she ran her fingers over the scabbard's body.

Hugo couldn't believe it. He slowly pulled out the sword inside. It was a fine two-egged sword that was shining as the light reflects on it.

"This is gorgeous!" The man could not help but hug Abigail tightly in his arms.

Abigail chuckled. "You told me in the past that you wanted to have one." her face became flushed.

"Thank you for this, Abigail." Hugo sincerely uttered toher.

Abigail bit her cheeks to refrain herself from smiling too wildly. "That's not free, though," she added in, which caught Hugo's attention.

"Hmm…" Hugo looked at the woman. "What do you want as a payment, then?"

"Can you, uhm… sleep in my house next week?" Abigail answered as her face became red.

"Of course. Haven't we done that multiple times already?"

"Oh, right?" Abigail shyly turned around.

"Can you deliver this to my house, next week?" her attention was now shifted to the store's owner.

The owner immediately agreed. "Of course, Miss. It would be such an honor." The man bowed his head.

"Can we leave now?" Hugo stared at the woman.

Abigail gave him a thumbs up. She called for their driver to pick her up already.

"Mr. Rommel is coming already," she informed Hugo as they two, walk out of the mall.

"Alright." Hugo looked around. They were waiting in front of the mall when someone caught his attention. It was a woman getting dragged by a man to enter a car.

His eyes instantly widened when he saw who the woman was.

"Wait for me here, Alright?" Hugo didn't look back as he sprinted his way to the other side of the street.

It was Lilith.
