Supreme Master In The Apocalypse-Chapter 126 His Ally
It was already midnight when they arrived at their own house. Hugo became persistent that they should come back even if he was tired already, he thought that it might be better and he doesn't want we complicate things with Abigail.
Hugo looked above him. he was staring blankly at the white ceiling of his room. He recalled all the things that had happened earlier.
Was he satisfied with what happened?
That was the biggest question running in his mind. He took a deep sigh. He does not know what to think and how to feel.
Julius has been shot. He doesn't have any idea if he was still alive or no from what happened.
Was this his revenge already?
Hugo didn't feel satisfied with what happened. Or was it because there was still worry in his heart about what might come in the next few days? 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚
"Ah, fuck!" He tirelessly breathed out. He was too lazy to get up and close the light of his room but he got to do it if he wanted to sleep peacefully.
Gathering his strength, he stood up and closed the light. He went back to his bed and covered himself with a blanket. And in there, he slept peacefully.
"Hugo," A soft voice called Hugo out as he went into a deep slumber. Just like magic, Hugo who was sleeping in the wide bed opened his eyes fully after hearing his name.
Confusion was written in Hugo's face as he wakes up. He saw that he was in the same room where he woke up days ago.
"Why am I here Thalia?" he curiously asked. "I was resting in my sleep." his forehead creased. He didn't stand up but just turned his body to the side so he can stare at Thalia.
"Can't I just call you for no reason?" Thalia smiled widely as she went near towards Hugo. Her silky white dress was dancing with the wind. There was a crown on her head, with a read jewel reflecting on the middle.
"That's so unlike you," Hugo tilted his head to the side, fixing the pillow on his head.
"Well, good thing you know." Thalia answered.
Hugo glanced over at Thalia's side. He watched her with a mischievous smile on his face. She was like a fine wine that gets beautiful as she aged.
"Well, thank you for that." Thalia smiled at him sweetly.
"Should I say it out loud so you can thank me more?" Hugo teased.
Thalia rolled her eyes. "Can you sit up straight first?" she raised her brows, staring at Hugo from head to toe.
"That's not a big deal," Hugo shrugged his shoulders. He sat up, facing her.
Thalia looked at Hugo on her eyes. "I have a mission for you." She announced unexpectedly that shocked Hugo.
"Me?" Hugo pointed out at himself. "You have a lot of servants here. What does a mere human like me can do for you?" he asked curiously.
"I'll tell you why at the right time." Thalia answered him.
"What is it the?" Hugo added in, now getting curious with what Thalia will say to him.
"I know the current situation on your world." Thalia started in.
"Well, that's already obvious since you are the Queen of Heaven." Hugo sarcastically cut off Thalia's word.
Thalia glared at Hugo. "I need you to save those people that you saw on the hospital when you woke up."
"But why?"
"They will be an important tool if you wanted to prevent 'it' from happening." Thalia informed Hugo about the little details of her plan.
She tilted her head to the side. It was a lie when she said that those people will prevent what was destined to be. At the very least, they will be able to help Hugo on fighting those people when the destiny takes place.
Haring Lumina's prophecy, a few days ago, she gave it a thought for days and decided that this was all she can do for Hugo.
She doesn't even know why she was doing this in the first place.
It must be because even after all that had happened, the guiltiness in her heart didn't died down.
"The pandemic?" Hugo's eyes widened.
Thalia shook her head. "It will be far more dangerous than that…" she breathed out. Her voice almost became a whisper.
"Then what will it be if it will not be a pandemic?" His forehead formed a straight line, recalling the memories of his previous life.
"An apocalypse."
"What?!" Hugo's heart took a big leap after hearing it.
If that will be the case, then he knew that the apocalypse will be much more dangerous than the pandemic.
"Tell me, what should I do." The seriousness on Hugo's voice became evident.
'I thought that the fucking pandemic will be over once Rome or Julius became harmed! I should have known better…"
Thalia opened up her palms and a golden pouch appeared on top of it. She looked at Hugo as if telling him to take it away from her hands.
"What is this?"
"That is a luminous pearl made out of the purest water in the earth. Make them drink this and they will immediately get better after a day."
"Just like that?"
,m "Yeah." Thalia shrugged her shoulders. She looked at Hugo, when she remembered something.
The sides of his lips rose up.
"Don't worry, you won't be alone." She sweetly smiled.
Hugo looked at her with doubts. "What do you mean?"
Laughing out loud, Thalia swayed her hands. She didn't say any single world but just waved her hands at Hugo.
Hugo's eyes widened when he could feel himself getting teleported somewhere. He massaged the temples of his head when he arrived somewhere.
He was clueless on where did Thalia take him.
"She didn't even say anything about this place!" He uttered beyond belief.
"Well, I just gotta find who will be my partner so I can go back immediately." He reminded himself.
The smell of the woods was lingering in Hugo's nose as he heard the sound of crippling from the dried leaves, echoing in the whole place.
"Is this a forest?" he asked the already obvious question.
Hugo was walking slowly, unaware of his surroundings. The abundance of nature was evident everywhere. Different heights of trees and the richness of soil were overwhelming even in his eyes.
It was his first time in a while seeing such a view.
Hugo lifted his face, letting the light and the shadows dance across his skin. The bird's humming was like a lullaby. He inhaled its minty smell and continued on, delighted in the sound of his feet as he step on a few branches.
He took a deep breath out of relief, feeling the cold and the fresh air circulating around.
But his thoughts got interrupted by the sudden sound that caught his attention.
Hugo's feet stop midway, looking around to find where it was coming first. The sound stopeed eventually, and he almost thought that he was just imagining things.
*Meow *Meow *Meow
Hugo's eyes widened, seeing a cute little kitten who was stuck on one of the fallen branches on the ground.
The thought of him finding who will be his partner vanished instantly. He ran towards the side, quickly taking a step to help the poor little kitten out.
The kitten was crying in pain as Hugo tried to remove the branches that were on top of its body.
*Meow
"Hmm, what is it?" Hugo asked as his eyes switched on his side.
It was as if the cat was talking to him. Even if it was weird, Hugo tried to raise the cat to see whether it was a girl or a boy.
"So you're a boy, huh?" he mischievously smiled as he placed the kitten on his arms.
It was still cute so he got this feeling that he should probably take care of it.
Looking at the exit, Hugo tilted his head to the side. He should probably take the poor kitten with him since he don't know what will happen to this poor kitten if he will leave it alone in this forest.
"Let's go back, huh?" Hugo asked the cat as if it would understand him. He took a sigh before he started to walk his way out towards the direction of the exit where he saw.
"I recall that this wasn't here earlier." He uttered to himself. He just shrugged his shoulders before taking the path, not thinking of anything already.
Deciding to look back, cold air flashed through him, seeing a quick shadow running through. The kitten in his arms shifted its place as if he has gotten too conscious .
"Let's go back, huh?" Hugo asked the cat as if it would understand him. He took a sigh before he started to walk his way out towards the direction of the exit where he saw.
When he step foot past the exit sign. Hugo's surrounding changed. He came back on his room with a cat in his hands.
