Supreme Master In The Apocalypse

"Take care, alright?" Hugo reminded Lilianne as she went inside her car.

"Yes, I will." Lilianne smiled at Hugo. She gave him a wink before putting on her seatbelt.

"You take care too. I enjoyed my time with you today."

Hugo bid his goodbye to Lilianne. He closed the door of her car before taking a step back so that she could drive freely.

Hugo watched at how the car slowly disappeared from his sight. When he saw that Lilianne was safe and was far away already, he turned his head towards Hendrix, who was sitting at the side of the street.

"Let's go now?" His brows shot up as he asked the question.

Looking at his surroundings, Hendrix made sure that there was no one around the area. He transformed into his human form. Before answering Hugo, he wiped out the dirt that has gotten on his arms after sitting on the side of the street.

Glaring at Hugo. "You didn't even bother to place me back in that bag," pointing out the bag that was left unattended on the floor.

Hugo scratched the back of his head. "You told me that it's boring inside,' he shrugged his shoulder as he placed his hands down. "And that you hate the feeling of shaking as I took a step."

Hendrix shook his head to the side. "That was better than getting dirty! Who knows what germs were there on the ground." He scoffed, crossing his arms on his chest.

"Shhh…" Hugo signaled Hendrix to keep quiet. "It's already 5 in the afternoon. We need to go back already to our house. My parents are already waiting for us."

Hugo and Lilianne's date ended after eating together and talking for a while. It was a pit for Hugo but h couldn't do anything since there were other things running in his mind.

Lilianne invited him to their house. He already knew where would it take them but when he realized that Hendrix was with him, he immediately rejected the enticing offer.

"Is that you, Hugo?" A soft voice coming from a woman suddenly sounded at their backside.

Hugo was startled when he heard his voice. He looked at Hendrix and saw that he was quite shocked by what happened too.

Turning back to see where the voice came from, Hugo saw a familiar face that he has once seen. "Ella?" he chuckled as he saw a brown envelope in her hands.

"Let me guess… You came here because of business?" he joked around. Ella was currently wearing a black dress with a blazer topping it off.

Just basing on her outfit, it seems like Ella came from a formal event.

"Yeah," Ella laughed out loud. When she looked at Hugo's back, that's when she noticed that Hugo wasn't alone and was with someone.

"Is this your friend?" She smiled widely as she took a step forward.

"Hello, I am Ella." She introduced herself.

Hendrix took a quick glimpse before taking Ella's hands. 'I am Hendrix,' he awkwardly smiled.

It was Hendrix's first time being introduced to someone. As he was with Hugo all the time as a cat, then he didn't get through this awkward thing.

He didn't know that introducing himself was embarrassing. 'It must be because I am used to someone introducing me to everyone… or was it because I only introduce myself and not my achievements?' he thought.

The both of them shook hands as a way of saying that they were both happy to meet each other.

Hugo chuckled when he saw how stiff Hendrix looked.

"Ella is the owner of the apartment that you are currently staying at," Hugo added in to Ella's introduction.

"Oh!" When Hendrix got the idea, he was able to relax the way he smiled.

"Your apartment is very lovely… Ella." He uttered as he bowed down his head. He took one of the woman's palms, kissing it softly.

Ella's eyes widened with the sudden act of Hendrix. She immediately took her hand off him. He step backward and went closer to Hugo.

Hugo shook his head. 'You fool, what are you doing?' He questioned, communicating through their mind.

'I was just doing an act of courtesy!' Hendrix defended himself. He was surprised with how Ella reacted.

He thought that an act of courtesy was always looked at a good point from the mortal's point of view.

'You fool. An act of courtesy here is simply complimenting the apartment and telling that you have a good stay so far. You will be labeled as a creepy man here,' Hugo almost face-palmed as he glanced at Hendrix, who looked very confused about what was happening.

Hugo went closer to Ella. "I'm sorry for his actions. It's just that in their place, saying thank you is like that." He awkwardly laughed, trying to explain things to her.

"Ohh," Ella bit the sides of her lips as she silently nodded. "I was just shocked by what happened." She uttered before laughing.

Hugo laughed as well trying to make the atmosphere lighter so that it wouldn't get awkward. He needs to remember that Ella was still his landlord.

And by contract, that means she's his boss.

"Your apartment is really nice. I haven't got the chance to say thank you for organizing the groceries," Hugo scratched the back of his head as he remembered it.

"That's nothing!" Ella smiled, waving her hands to say that it was really nothing for her.

"Organizing those groceries of yours made me relax too," her smile became wider. "By the way, you said that the apartment is really nice. Does that mean you two already moved?" She curiously asked.

Hugo nodded. "My friend is really persistent, and we have other roommates too." He informed her.

"I hope you continue to like your stay there" Ella smiled. She appreciated the fact that Hugo has been very nice to him.

It was new for her to see kindness instantly towards her customers or her tenants.

As a new business owner who was very new to their kind of field, she have encountered a lot of perverted man who was just meeting her up because of her looks.

She actually thought that Hugo was one of them, but she was proven wrong.

Hugo was quiet nice. He knew how to respect woman and that was very nice of him.

Hendrix, who was sulking on the side, looked at Hugo.

'Until when are you two going to talk? I am bored here.' Hendrix uttered. He took a loud sigh that both Hugo and Ella heard.

Hugo glared at Hendrix. 'Just give me 0 more minutes. It was your fault why this happened at the irst place.' He answered.

"Just don't mind him. He really is like that." Hugo laughed as he tried to catch Ella's attention.

Hendrix rolled his eyes. 'Should I just play with my powers or a while?" he said out o boredom.

Hendrix opened up his palms. A few little stones appeared on top of it. He was busy playing with them, throwing them on the ground.

Hugo, who was sharing a conversation with Ella noticed something odd. His eyes were caught by a shining white light coming from Ella's ring.

It was a golden ring with a clear stone in the middle.

"Is your ring all right?" He asked worriedly when he saw that Ella still hasn't noticed it yet.

He thought that it was broken.

"Oh, that's nice then," Ella answered. She glanced over at the ring on her finger and saw that it was emitting white light from within. Her eyes widened. She anxiously looked around trying to find if there were any other people around but there were none.

'It must be not working properly…' she thought as she quickly hides her right hand towards the back. In there, she slowly removed her ring.

"Oh, it must be because of the light nearby." Ella laughed as she pointed out the post light near them.

Hugo nodded. He looked at his watch and noticed that he have spent half an hour talking to Ella alone. Knowing that he must go home already, he started to bid goodbye to her as well.

"Well, I and Hendrix need to go now. My mother invited us to dinner so we can't be late." Hugo waves his hands at Ella.

Ella waved her hands back. "I will get going too," she uttered before running to the opposite side.

Hugo looked a Hendrix and saw that he was lost in his thoughts.

"What happened to you?" Hugo's brows furrowed as he stared at him.

Hendrix swallowed dryly. He took a deep sigh, in doubt whether he should ask the question in his head.

After contemplating it for a few seconds he firmly shut his eyes. As he opened his eyes, he looked at Hugo straight in his eyes.

"Do you know if there were hidden gods that came from heaven that was currently residing her in your world?"
