Supreme Master In The Apocalypse

Chapter 92 Finally Awake



"W-Water…" Hugo's voice stuttered as he reached out for Verda's hand. His hand held unto his head, he felt his world spinning as if he was unconscious for days.

"HUGO!" Verda's eyes widened in shock. She quickly went closer to Hugo, with tears pooling in her eyes.

"How are you?"

"I'm fine, Mother." He breathed out. He leaned against the headboard of the bed and closed his eyes. "How many days have passed?"

"You have been unconscious for a week already." Verda took a deep breath. When she saw that Hugo was having a hard time speaking, she instantly stood up to do what he requested earlier.

Giving Hugo a cup of water, she watched him as he finishes it in just a few seconds. "Do you feel better now?" She worriedly looked at him.

Nodding his head, Hugo looked around when he remembered Hailey. Fear consumed his heart when he saw that she wasn't in the room.

"Mother, where is Hailey?" Before he could even make assumptions in his mind, he asked to avoid unwanted thoughts from coming.

"Oh, your sister is in her room. Don't worry. She's already fine. Your Father is looking at her right now while I am here."

"Oh…"

A loud and deep sigh escaped from his lips. After seeing his look-alike in his dream, he didn't know what has gotten into his mind when he decided to interrupt them.

He knew for sure that it was impossible, but in his dream, he was able to kill Julius using his own hands. That's the last memory of his dream before successfully coming back here.

It was as if that's what he just needed to do in order for everything to turn back into normal.

'Once I successfully kill Julius, will I be able to get back to my original world as well?' He couldn't help but ask himself that question.

'But I already like this world. I got Lilianne and Abigail. What could I ask for more? My family is here already.' He grinned.

Going back to his original world will just be a pain in his ass. There, he has minimal friends. His father was dead and his family was at rock bottom. At least here, they could still afford to eat something decent, knowing that both his parents had their own work.

"Mother, what happened? How did I get here?"

Since Hugo was puzzled, he couldn't stop his mouth from saying that question. The word was like a trigger for Verda. She stood frozen in place with her hands getting cold and sweaty all of a sudden.

"..."

There were no words forming in her mouth, even if she badly wanted to speak. It took her a lot of determination just to make a sound that caught Hugo's attention.

"Mother," Hugo's forehead creased as he watched how she reacted. 'Did something happen? Don't tell me they already knew about my powers!' He paused when he realized that it was possible.

He has carelessly made his powers known to everyone because he was eager to save Hailey. But that was the only thing that he could do seeing how that asshole slapped Hailey on her cheeks.

Their parents hadn't even laid a hand on them ever since, and those strangers would just do it easily like that?

p "Mother, tell me what happened." He repeatedly asked. He was tempted to use his powers, but in his state right now, he knew for sure that he would be sleeping for a day again.

He needed to make sure that his body was already well before he even use the slightest form of his power. 'That must be the reason why I was unconscious for days,' He uttered in his mind.

'Verda warily smiled. "I didn't know everything that happened. I got a call from the hospital saying that you and Hailey were both in their care…" a tear fell from her eyes as she recalled their bodies bathing in blood.

It was pure horror for her. She didn't know what to do, since it wasn't just Hugo alone. Fortunately, the bullet just wounded Hailey's arms, unlike Hugo, who has been shot in his back.

"What did the police say?" He asked for more details regarding what had happened.

"The police said that fortunately they arrived at the right time or else you will be dead."

"How about the culprit, and did they see who saved all of us?"

Verda shook her head. "That's what everyone was confused about. They recalled someone coming to save the children, but they couldn't remember who was it. It was as if their memories had a huge gap between."

Verda sat on the chair beside the bed. She gave Hugo a cup of water one more time when he asked for more.

Hugo's brows shot up when he noticed that Verda wasn't moving to call the doctors to check up on him. "Aren't you supposed to call the doctor so they can check up on me?"

Verda's eyes widened. "Right!" she immediately stood up. She ran towards the station where the nurses were at standby.

On the other hand, Hugo remanded seated on his bed. He glanced over to the big window on the side. In there, he could freely see the clouds in the sky.

It was very sunny and bright as if the sky was happy that he was finally awake. His eyes flew to his neck. His necklace wasn't there already. He should be thankful to Thalia for saving him and his sister.

He knew that without her, they would be dead on the spot. He was really blessed to be able to meet such a kind goddess. When Hugo was busy placing the glass of water on the side, a golden lining on his wrist caught his attention.

"What is this?" His voice was filled with curiosity as he touched them. The golden lining was only a horizontal stroke on the side. It would only be visible when the sun shines on it.

"Is this from Thalia?" he raised his right hand higher so he could see them more vibrantly. 'But it was not in her character to just place a mark on someone without informing it beforehand.'

'Fuck. This is making my head ache!'

The door suddenly opened, causing him to look in its way. A few nurses and doctors entered inside. They check up on Hugo's state. Before they leave, they told Hugo that he should limit his actions for a week or just lay down until the wound on her back healed.

Since Hugo needed to be well as soon as possible, he needed to comply with all the things that he needed to do.

He needed to rest for a week from his school and just stay in their house.

He wondered what will happen to his participation in Lunaria's Feast. The doctor reminded him that he should not do any tiring activities for 2 to 3 weeks.

It seems like he needed to inform Headmaster Leon about it immediately so they could look for someone to replace him in an instant.

"Can I visit Hailey, Mother?" Asking in a low voice, he looked at Verda.

Verda nodded, her heart was aching seeing her son like this. Hugo used to be a lively person. Now, his eyes looked so lifeless in a way that something has changed on him. But she couldn't point it out.

'Stop overthinking Verda. Your son must have been just so tired and traumatized from what happened!' she reminded herself since it would be impossible for Hugo to just changed in an instant.

She asked for a wheelchair outside, so she could freely move Hugo towards the next room where Hailey was staying.

Hugo had no choice but to ride it since he could feel his back part being in pain with just a slight move. "I wonder what happened to those assholes that dared hurt my sister." the sides of his lips rose up.

"Mother, do you have news about what happened to those men who dared kidnap Hailey and the other children?"

Verda sighed. "I heard that most of them got killed while the remaining were in a coma or in critical condition. Those who saved all of you must be so strong and powerful to do that!" She exclaimed.

When they arrived at the room just near from where Hugo was staying, Verda took the card key from her pocket and unlock it.

In there, Hugo saw Hailey on the bed. He was surprised when he saw that the bubbly face of his sister was replaced by an expressionless one.

'My poor sister…'
