Supreme Master In The Apocalypse

Hugo was alone in their house when a hitting sound resonated from their window.

"What is that?" His forehead creased. He stood up from his seat and walked towards where it was coming from.

"A dove?" He looked at it unbelievably. 'Is this from Thalia?' He wondered when he recalled the last time that a bird came knocking on his window.

Getting curious about it, he opened up the windows to let the poor bird in.

Just like what he expected, the bird flew into his hands to drop something. It was a small piece of paper that was neatly scrolled.

The bird immediately left after dropping the paper. He was reluctant to open it but he knew that if Thalia sent it this way, then it must be very important.

Deciding to open it, Hugo untied the ribbon in the middle. He read the contents of the leader. There was no particular instruction written on it. He just saw some words that looked like an address.

"Am I supposed to go there?" He scratched the back of his head. Since he didn't know what might happen to him in that place. He stood up to go to his bedroom.

Ducking down, he took the big wooden box underneath his bed and opened it up.

"Might as well practice this, if ever." The sides of his lips rose up. He took out his sword that was hidden well from the inside. He wiped it off using a piece of white fabric before going back outside to take the piece of paper to the table.

Since he knew that his parents won't be able to come back in two hours, he wasn't hesitant to go out alone.

Now that his body has recovered, he surely can teleport to wherever this paper was pointing to. He closed his eyes and whispered the words in the air.

Hugo opened his eyes after a few seconds. His eyes widened when he saw a familiar woman standing up in the middle. Her silky white hair was effortlessly dancing with the wind.

Thalia was wearing a white dress that was reaching to the floor. It didn't fit the location that they were in, but she stood up among the others.

"Goddess Thalia," Hugo bowed his head as he walked closer to the woman.

"I see that you are well already." Thalia smiled when she saw that Hugo was able to use his powers after a week of staying in the hospital.

"It was all thanks to you," Hugo uttered. "I still haven't said my thank you for saving me and my sister's life." he smiled back. Now that he saw Thalia, Hugo felt as if he was at peace.

Thalia chuckled. "You pleased me, young man," she brought her hands altogether before glancing at the side. In there, the people who were acting arrogant earlier looked as if they have already peed in their pants.

She swayed her hands to remove the barrier that she cast so they wouldn't be able to get away from her sight.

"The missing children are there in the van." She pointed out the 3 vans that were parked on the side.

Seeing the van on the side, Hugo's eyes widened in alarm. He could see the kids inside unconscious as if they were in a deep sleep.

Thalia opened up her palms. A white feather came out of it. "This can wake them up." taking Hugo's hand, she placed it on top of it. "I can only do this much. I have a lot of things that I needed to do." She smiled for the last time.

Removing her hands from Hugo, "I hope you succeed." taking a step back, Thalia's body glowed into a blinding light. It flew through the sky, lighting up the entire forest.

"Are we just leaving them there?" Celeste tilted her head to the side. It was unlikely for Thalia to just leave all of them alone, knowing that Hugo was facing 10 enemies all by himself.

"If he can't even do that, then why should we welcome him to Heaven in the future?" her brows shot up, asking a simple question.

"But he didn't know that he's a candidate already!" Celeste tried to reason out. She swallowed dryly as she peeked at the clouds on her feet. In there, she could see clearly what was happening in the forest.

"Much more to it." Thalia shrugged her shoulders. She sat comfortably on the clouds and watched how Hugo would be able to perform for today.

"He didn't get all of his powers just to waste them on useless things."

Hugo breathed heavily as he was left alone in the middle of the forest. He looked at what he was carrying. 'This is my first time using this, so I might miss a few slice' He uttered before unsheathing it.

It created a very loud sound in the air.

"Who are you!" The same person who was acting like a leader trembled. Since they were angels that fell from heaven, their powers do not work in the mortal world.

They needed the children to sacrifice to the demon lord who has been sharing with them a few of his powers whenever they have a mission.

Now that they were done, that little power vanished into thin air.

In order for the Demon God t sustain the energy needed for him to be successful in using his powers, he needed children's blood to sustain his dying body.

"I actually do not know why I am here." Hugo shrugged his shoulders. He slashed the sword in the air. His mouth fell apart when it created a force that hit the people in his front.

His eyes widened. He looked at his hands unbelievably. "Did I just do that?" he was clearly amazed by what he had done.

Hugo's 6th power was to be able to draw forces and damage with his weapon. Just like earlier, he can create a slash of wind that could hit his enemies and possibly kill them once he masters it.

He could draw all elements with the help of his sword. However, currently, he could only use wind out of it.

The person who was acting like a leader earlier fell to his knees after the impact. 'That's not a power of a mere human being!' He coughs blood.

It was embarrassing to say, but because they have no powers here in the world, their body was as weak as a human body. That means that they are very fragile when someone attacks them like this.

"I should announce this to our Lord! I'm sure he will be glad once I share this piece of good news." He was determined to escape from Hugo's hands. Standing up, he looked back to his allies and ordered them.

"We need to get out of here! We need to inform our lord about this!" He shouted out loud that even Hugo, who was just staring at them, heard it.

When he heard it, he immediately shook his head. "By the way, who is your lord?" the tone of his voice was filled with interest as he took a step forward.

"You don't need to do that!" The man answered, shutting him off.

Hugo sighed. "You know, I can all let you go, but you were disrespectful, so I changed my mind."

Hugo, in full force, swung his sword to the side. He jumped in the air, and with his power to teleport, the man who was being on guard about him didn't manage to see his attack.

"If only, you replied to me respectfully, then this should have happened." a deep breath escaped from his lips.

"W-What are you saying?" With his whole body shivering, the man knelt on the floor when he could feel his knees turning into bubbles.

Hugo was hesitant, but he knew for sure that if he didn't do this, then he might make more enemies in the future.

So even if he wasn't courageous enough to do it, he pierced the bottom of his sword towards the man's heart. The man fell to the ground unconscious. He looked back to see the rest of them trying to run towards him to launch an attack, but before they even get near.

He instinctively threw his sword upwards before hitting it towards them. As if the sword had its own mind, it gather strong wind, that was moving forward to the 9 men remaining.

They all shouted in pain as the sword hit a critical part of their body, one by one.

"What was that?" Hugo immediately bowed down when he felt his sword coming in his direction. He was about to shout when it suddenly went into his hand.

"What the fuck is happening?" His jaw fell to the ground.

It was as if his body were able to control the sword in the air. But he didn't know how all of this happened. There was just a question that could not leave his mind.

"Where did Abigail get this sword?"
