Supreme Master In The Apocalypse

"Mr. Hugo, you are asked to go to Mronhe Hall to attend a meeting. You will be meeting the other participants for the Lunaria feast there."

Hugo lightly smiled as he answered, "Yes, Headmaster."

Aella, who was on his side, guided him out of Leon's office. A car greeted his eyes as they went outside.

'If they told me where the location is, then I can just teleport there. This will take me too much time."

A loud sigh escaped from his lips as he rode the car

"Headmaster Leon has instructed me to help and guide you." Aella looked at Hugo coldly. "Don't forget that you are carrying our school's reputation. You need to act properly there."

"Yes, Miss." Hugo secretly rolled his eyes.

'This woman is saying too many things. She is too noisy! Can't I just have a peaceful time?'' He sat comfortably in the car seat and glanced over the window.

From there, he saw the towering high buildings in the city. Their city is the capital of the whole Lunaria. He wanted to explore other neighboring countries as well, but he still had no money for that.

It was less than 10 minutes of travel time from his school. They arrived in front of a circular building called Mronhe Hall. It was surrounded by glass walls and palm trees from the outside.

From a distance, Hugo could see all the other students inside it. They were gathered in the middle, seated.

He looked at Aella. "What will I do here?" he asked when he saw that there was a woman in the middle of the hall. She was calmly seated on the stage, observing all the students in front of her. .

"They invited all the participating students so you all can get to know each other. Rules and other things that you all should know will be announced today."

Hugo silently nodded. He followed Aella, who was leading the walk.

'It seems like the security is very tight here,' he murmured when he saw that they can't enter without showing their invites.

The guard handed them a clear ID that will be used to open the door.

"You two can enter now," the guard informed them.

Hugo tapped his ID on the small box placed on the side of the glass door. It automatically opened, allowing him to go inside.

'It seems like I need to take care of this or else I won't be able to go out. But, well, if that happened, I can just teleport my way out.'

A man that look like he was in his late 30s greeted them. "Hello, Miss Aella and Mr. Hugo. I am Cesar, your guide for today." He bowed down before a smile rose up to his lips.

Aella's brows shot up. "Where should we be going? Skip the introductions and just take us there."

"This way, please," Cesar pointed out an arc-shaped door on the side.

Hugo was just following them as they entered the door. He didn't expect that the whole hall was quite noisy with numerous people talking inside.

"Mr. Hugo Irish of Lunaria Academia is here!"

Cesar loudly announced as they march their way inside. Hugo stood proudly. He roamed his eyes around, seeing the curious faces of the students.

"I heard he is poor."

"They said that he was just a scholar student…"

Gossips surfaced in the area. However, Hugo wasn't affected by it at all. He already knew that the students who will be his 'enemy' at the feast all came from wealthy families.

Fortunately, he memorized all the details that were given to him by Headmaster Leon.

"Remember to be prim and proper," Aella reminded as she took a seat at the back.

Since the teachers' seats were at the further back of the Hall, Hugo had no choice but to go in the middle alone. He silently proceeded to his designated seat and was surprised when he saw that it was at the very front.

The chair on his right was still vacant, with a paper on its top. On the other hand, the left one was already occupied by a guy who looks like he was 3 years older than him.

Hugo had no intentions to be friends with anyone in the hall. He was having a great time, trying to read the thoughts of the students who looked interesting in his eyes.

"So far, we are just waiting for 10 more students."

Hugo heard Cesar on the side. He sighed, knowing that it will take them another hour before all the participants arrived. He took a glimpse on the side when he saw from his peripheral vision that someone was coming.

A group of men was strolling their way toward Hugo. The four of them were radiating pure confidence as they walk with their heads held up high.

"Tsk. Tsk. Is this the famous Hugo Irish that was said to be the rank 1 student in Lunaria Academia?" The man in the middle laughed out loud.

'When I'm bored, destiny really works its way to bring out some fun in my life.' Hugo smiled. "And who are you?"

"I am Ronald from St. Ville Academy," the man boasted around.

Hugo snickered. His eyes innocently looked at him "Isn't that the school below Lunaria Academia?" He acted as if he was thinking. "Hmm… If that is true, then does that mean you all are below me as well?" the corners of his lips rose up.

"Y-You!"

"Oh, yeah, me," Hugo made a face as he mimicked his voice.

"Don't you know that my family is rich?! Unlike you, who is born in the dirt?" Ronald hissed. He crossed his hands tightly on his chest as if he said something good. He wanted to provoke Hugo about his roots.

"And so?" Hugo comfortably leaned in his chair. "I'm born from my mother, though."

Ronald stammered with annoyance. "That means I can buy you! You piece of shit!" He stomped his feet and glared at Hugo intently.

However, Hugo looked relaxed. He nodded and smiled. "How much will you pay me, then? Hmm…" he paused for a while. "I'm quite pricey, is that alright for you?" He looked at Ronald worriedly.

Hugo couldn't help but laugh inside when he saw how his nose flared in anger. 'Not gonna lie. He kinda looks like a monkey with that big nose.'

Ronald's jaw clenched. He pointed out his finger in front of Hugo's face. "You—"

Hugo tilted his head to the side. "Yes, me again." He interrupted Ronald's words, that made him explode in anger.

"ARGHHH!"

Hugo laughed as the man named Ronald and his minions, who looked like monkeys, left him alone.

"That's all? I didn't even sweat at that."
