Supreme Master In The Apocalypse

Flashes of cameras started clicking one by one as Julius Achre, the main person in this event. He was wearing a simple black tuxedo. Tears on the sides of his eyes could be seen as if he was about to break down at any moment.

'What a great actor,' Hugo silently commended the way Julius was acting.

Even he was surprised at how good his facial expression was . 'I wonder if he did go to any acting lessons for this,' he scoffed.

They were inside a private cemetery, where only rich people could be buried. The scenery was all green, covered with grass and tall, towering trees from the side. There was a small hall in the middle where the guests could sit it as they wait for everyone to arrive.

The start of event will begin in 30 minutes and almost all guests have arrived already.

Big names, such as the CEOs of the big named companies under Lunaria, were there already to pay their respect and witness the last moment of Rome.

They were just waiting for 2 more people now. It was President Damien and Noah Willington.

'I should have gone last,' Julius clenched his fist as he went towards the front chair.

It wasn't new for them to purposely attend late in an event. There was a saying that the last person to arrive was likely the most important person in the event.

'As long as I look good in the picture, then that will be fine.' He consoled himself. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket. He closed his eyes, trying to angle his head so that the camera would capture his crying face.

He didn't hire a personal photographer in this event. He let the public reporters entered since that would make him more believable.

'After this event, I could finally do whatever I want. I set aside the matter regarding the death of one of my men for this.' He took a deep breath. He could feel the flashes of the camera on his side.

Hugo's eyes flew to the car that just stopped meters away from them. It was President Damien, together with a few government officials on his back.

"We say our sincere condolence, Julius." Damien sincerely uttered as he went closer to Julius.

"Thank you, Sir," Julius answered in a low voice. He accepted Damien's hands.

"I have this standing bouquet for you." Damien slightly smiled as 2 standing bouquets made out of lilies appeared, being carried by his men.

"Thank you again, Sir," Julius whispered in the air.

Damien nodded as he sat a few seats away from Julius.

Since Rome does not have any family members left, then all his assets would go to Julius now that he was gone.

Unknown to all the visitors at the funeral, after Rome's death, Julius made a fake last will regarding all of Rome's assets.

On Rome's original last will, it states there that he would donate all of his property towards the charity that he has been supporting since then.

However, when Julius saw that, he wasn't satisfied. All that money came from him and Rome would just let other people use it?

That was unacceptable!

"Mother, when will this start?" Hugo's forehead creased as he looked at the side. In there he saw his parents with serious expression on their faces.

"In 10 minutes, son. Don't be disrespectful, alright?" Verda reminded her son.

"Yeah," Hugo shrugged his shoulder. They were only waiting for Noah before this event will start.

He couldn't wait for this to end.

"Are you prepared already?" Abigail, who was with him, asked.

"Of course," the side of his lips rose up. He glanced over at Abigail, who was beside his sister, Hailey.

It was a few minutes before Noah arrived. It weirded Hugo out b the man's expression. He couldn't directly point it out, but there was something in his eyes that looked different.

Even Noah's aura had noticeably changed.

Hugo could feel in his heart that there was something wrong with him.

Noah entered alone without any guards on his back. He was visibly quiet as he walked towards the middle where Rome's coffin was placed at the last time.

In there he saw Rome's dead body. He closed his eyes, taking a deep breath. 'Don't worry, young man." He murmured to himself as he turned his body to sit on his designated chair.

He glanced over at Julius for the first time. In there, he saw how he cried with the handkerchief in his hand.

But something inside Noah had sparked. He knew that Julius was the only person that Rome could depend on, but why does it seem like he has no pity towards Julius who was left alone?

Since Julius and him have been friends from way back, he had been with Rome since the very first day. Although, he doesn't show his care and affection towards him, especially with the kind of work that they were in.

Emotions were practically useless in this field.

It would only make one look weak.

'Don't worry. I'll take care of the things here.' Hugo determinedly uttered to himself.

It wasn't a few minutes before the priest that will be doing the memorial today entered. All of them stood up to give respect.

Everything went well just as Hugo expected. He has decided to wait until Rome's body was buried in the ground. He planned to just make his plans for the reception after the funeral. Hey moved to a different location.

The reception was supposed to be for Rome's burial; however, it looked so lavish that one would think that it was for a joyous event.

"Wait for me here," Hugo smiled at his family before he turned around. He grabbed Abigail by her hand, pulling her to the corner.

"Can you do it?" he asked her.

"Yeah, don't worry." Abigail smiled at Hugo, assuring him. "I just need to successfully get inside the monitor room. Plug in this USB on the laptop and play the video inside." She recalled what Hugo had instructed him to do.

"Alright." A sigh of relief escaped Hugo's lips. He was about to walk away when Abigail stopped his hands.

"We have a problem, though."

"What is it?"

"Of course, there will be a person in charge of the monitor room! How can I enter that without being caught?" Abigail glared at Hugo as if he said something funny.

Hugo chuckled. "You're hot-headed now, huh?" he teased Abigail.

"But then, you will really be hot when you give me a head now." He grinned, wiggling is brows to tease her more.

Abigail's face became flushed at Hugo. "You idiot! Let's get these things done now."

"As your wish," Hugo's grin became wider.

He stopped the time, teleporting both him and Abigail towards the Monitor's office. He could see a man in front of the table, watching the screens of the CCTV cameras all over the place.

He placed Abigail on the side before he pulled up the man's body. He opened the door and saw that there was a guard guarding the front door to ensure that no one will enter it.

'I know that both of you are just working.' He looked at them with compassion. He went to the storage room, storing both of them there. Since it was in the very last room, it would be impossible for people to hear them when they shout.

Adding to the fact that all the rooms in the place were soundproof.

He locked the storage room from the inside before teleporting right back to the monitor room. In there, he turned everything back to normal.

"Now, we are here." He announced.

"Huh?" Abigail's eyes widened when she saw that their location suddenly changed. However, she didn't remember anything about them teleporting.

If she knew then her head should be spinning right now.

"What did you do?" she breathlessly asked when she saw that no one was there except them.

"It's a secret." Hugo winked at her.

"So, can you do this now?" He asked once again.

Abigail, even though she was speechless, nodded her head. 'Don't tell me, he has yet another power?' she asked in her mind. 'But that will be impossible. Maybe I'm just already used to his teleportation power now?'

Abigail was unsure as Hugo bid goodbye to her. She waved her hands back as she looked at USB in her hands.

The look in her eyes changed as she sat on the chair, in front of the monitors. In there, she started to delete all the footage for this day. She didn't leave anything that would point to them.

Now, looking at monitor, where the reception was being showed, she saw that Hugo already came back to his family.

"Abigail just had to go to the bathroom, mother," Hugo informed her mother.

"Is she fine?" Verda worriedly asked.

"Of course." Hugo smiled.

"Let's enter now. The main event will be coming soon."
