Supreme Master In The Apocalypse

Chapter 147 Who Is That?

Hugo teleported right into the apartment's location. His brows furrowed when he saw that everything was dark and the curtains surrounding the windows were all closed.

'Didn't Hendrix even turn on the lights?' He took a deep sigh. He shook his head as he turned on the switch of the lights in the living room.

Since it was still early in the morning, Hugo was not expecting that Hendrix was already awake. Without a choice, he opened up the fridge, trying to make some food.

He had a feeling that maybe one of the 3 people that he had saved will be awake later. Honestly, it will be better if the 3 of them will be awake by the end of the day.

'Well, for now, I needed to wake up Hendrix after I'm done cooking.'

It was such a hard task taking care of people. This just made him realize how hard it was to have children.

He just made a simple food that was enough for their lunch.

After a few minutes, Hugo was done cooking all the food that he wanted. It was just a simple meal since he was already done eating.

Hugo went upstairs to look for Hendrix. He left the bags downstairs since he was feeling lazy to carry them alone. He will just make Hendrix carry it all after he woke him up.

Hugo saw Hendrix in the room where they have bought the victims from yesterday. He was sleeping on the ground. By the look of it, it seems like he took the foam out of the bed from the other room and placed it there so he could have something to lay on.

He couldn't help but chuckle. 'Is this how determined he was to guard them?' He unbelievably asked himself as he looked around.

The three people who were lying altogether in the bed that they have connected were still unconscious.

Taking a deep sigh, Hugo went to the side. He pulled the curtain, revealing the glass window at the side of the room.

The sunlight coming from the outside went it, slightly lighting up the dimmed room. Hendrix, who felt that there was a presence on his side, immediately woke up.

He was wide awake, as if there was an intruder.

"I'm glad that you are awake already," Hugo's brows shot up. He looked at Hendrix and shook his head. "Go fix yourself. You look like a mess."

Hendrix looked at Hugo. His eyes were glaring at me. "You shocked me."

Shrugging his shoulders, "It's not my fault that you are still sleeping. I want to talk to you. After you are done, go downstairs." Hugo uttered as he took a step back, teleporting downstairs.

Hendrix looked at the door blankly. He let out a yawn before he stood up. He fixed his bed and placed them back in the room next to it.

'What time did I sleep yesterday?'

Hendrix could only remember that the sun was already about to rise when he completely fell asleep. He was patiently guarding for them to wake up, remembering Thalia's words, but in the end, he just fell asleep.

'Staying awake for how many days is not that hard for me. Why did it suddenly change?' His forehead creased.

'Am I starting to act like a mortal now?' His eyes widened when he thought about it.

As a God, they aren't required to sleep. But of course, sometimes, they still do it to relax their minds. Sleep to them was like a human going to the spa to relax their body after a lot of work.

They will only do it if necessary and if it was needed.

Most especially to him, who was required to be attentive and awake all the time.

He just noticed that since he went here, he has been sleeping almost every day. It was as if he was getting used to a mortal life where, after sleeping, he would wake up and eat afterward.

His clothes were far different as well that what he had been used to.

'I didn't know that life in here could affect me this much,' he sighed as he glanced over at the people lying on the bed.

Walking closer to them, Hendrix opened up his palms. He said some words in God's language. He placed a barrier in the room so that they wouldn't be able to go out there once they woke up. It's a special barrier that will immediately inform him if there will be a movement from the inside.

Hendrix used the stairs to get down. He didn't even manage to look in the mirror to see what he looked like. He didn't feel like doing anything today except wait for them to wake up so that he could make them drink the liquid that Thalia had given to him.

He wasn't sure whether to tell to Hugo, but since it was just a small matter, then he thought that it was not needed anymore.

When Hugo saw Hendrix coming down, he straightened his back. He called him for an important matter.

And that was if he could use his powers so that his looks would drastically change and would not be known by anyone.

At this point, he will have no choice but to ask for Hendrix's help. He knew that his parents would try their best to find him. So, in order to prevent that, he will need to change his appearances.

"Why did you call for me?" Hendrix looked at Hugo curiously. But when he saw the food on the table, his eyes widened.

He quickly took a seat, almost running. "You are such a good human!" He smiled. He didn't even let Hugo speak, he just immediately placed some food on his plate and dig in.

"Do you know how hungry I was?!" He exclaimed loudly. His mouth was full of food.

Unlike sleep, food was still important to a god's life. He was so hungry last night as he guarded the room alone, but he had no choice since he couldn't cook.

"I will stay here with all of you."

Hendrix almost choked on his food after hearing what Hugo had uttered. He quickly reached for the glass of water on the side of his plate and drink it.

"What?"

"I left our house," Hugo leaned over to the back of the dining chair. He was eyeing Hendrix to see what his reaction will be.

"Why did you do that?"

"To protect them." Hugo, with seriousness, answered. He took a deep sigh. "I know it doesn't make sense but trust me on this one." He answered.

Hendrix shrugged his shoulders. "I was just asking. It's not my role to interfere with your life."

"Good."

Hugo waited patiently until Hendrix was done eating before making a request. When he saw that he was full already and was in a good mood, he didn't wait any seconds and announced his intentions.

"I want you to change my appearance." Hugo looked at Hendrix straight in his eyes. "The one where I could control if I wanted to change my look back to normal or not."

"And why would I help you?" Hendrix's brows shot up. He held onto his stomach and thought, 'My stomach is so full. It seems like I ate a lot.'

"Well, it is needed for our plan and for your mission," Hugo answered.

"Alright." Hendrix stood up from his chair.

Hugo was surprised to see Hendrix agreeing with his request this easily.

The both of them went into the living room. Hugo locked the door and closed the windows with the black curtains while Hendrix went to sit on the sofa.

"This will be easy," Hendrix grinned. He swayed his hand to the side until a white light appeared on it. Hugo's body glowed in white. It was blinding that both of them had to close their eyes.

When the light vanished, Hugo's appearance changed. Unlike his previous appearance when they were at the hospital yesterday, today's transformation was almost perfect.

His hair became black. It was as dark as the nigh. His face looked more mature than it used to. Guessing the age range, his appearance must be around the mid-20s. At the same time, Hendrix handed in Hugo a small ring.

"If you wear that ring, your appearance will turn back to normal." He informed him. His grin became wider as he looked at Hugo. Now they both look as if they have the same age.

'This isn't bad after all,' he thought.

But knowing that it will never be enough, Hendrix created an identification card for Hugo. It was easy since they were the ones controlling everything in the world.

After he was done, the set of id cards appeared in his hands.

"Here, take this." He throws it onto Hugo that was successfully caught by the man.

"Thanks for this," Hugo chuckled.

Trying out the ring, he placed it on his middle finger and was surprised when he saw that he was back to his normal self.

He was about to say something when a knocking sound sounded from the door.

"Who is that?"
