The Conqueror Who Conquered

The Thousand Stairs (1)

Richi gawks and slams his body on the sofa. The intention of today's training is to clear his mind of something that later disturbing, not even yearya meet Hugo and his girlfriend here.

Which makes Richi more upset, why he even responded to what Camilla asked. And usually he does not care about what people say even though insulting him.

Richi sat up straight, thinking why he had put a gun on Camilla and made the girl hug Hugo even more.

"I must be crazy. Why do I care." Mumbled slowly.

The sound of many shots rang out, Richi stood up and looked from afar. Hugo and Daren are shooting. Richi notices the two who are racing to shoot at the point of the statue.

"Lumayan too" he said and left the place.

Daren glanced back. Camilla, Axel and Isac were sitting and relaxing. While he and Hugo were training.

"I'm becoming more and more convinced, Richi's family must be statesmen." Tukas Daren suddenly.

"Why did you say that?" Ask while putting a bullet in the gun.

"Seeing from the way he shot, as specially trained members, he also easily shot with the Russian weapon earlier." It was clear to Hugo. "He seems to have no flaws."

"Yes, he's been training since he was 3. So it would have been natural if he was that good". Connect Hugo and put up the headphones and aim again.

"Hugo, teach me.." Camilla came and picked one weapon.

"Help me, yeah. Try teaching me from behind". He said and smiled spoiled.

"I'm tired, you just practice on Daren, yeah." Hugo put down the headphones then stepped towards Axel and Isac. Seeing that, Camilla stomped her feet in annoyance.

At night, according to what he said, Hugo was already at Richi's house. The man managed to enter after the guards examined him carefully.

The door opened, and a servant invited him in.

"Please sit down, sir. I'll call Miss Richi".

The servant left Hugo sitting alone.

"Excuse me, Miss. Miss' friend is in the living room." Said the waiter to Richi who was reading a novel in the garden behind her house.

"Who? Emerald?" Ask with furrowed eyebrows.

"No, Miss. He said he was a schoolmate."

The waiter left, Richi also got up from her seat and moved towards the living room.

He heard his mother's laughter from the room. Curiously, he quickened his pace.

"Hugo?"

Hugo nodded, he sat opposite Richi's mother who had invited him to tell a story.

"What's wrong?" Richie stood behind his mother's couch.

"Didn't you see your phone?" He asked and Richi reached into the phone in his shorts pocket.

Richi shook his head while showing the screen of his phone which meant that he received nothing.

"Here you go, change your clothes over there. Hugo would want to take you for a walk." Mary said with pleasure.

Richi glanced at Hugo with a suspicious look.

"Hey, hurry. You kept Hugo waiting a long time." Her mother snapped which made Richi immediately move towards her room.

Hugo saw the girl walking with long unraveling hair until she covered her waist, making him unable to help but smile.

"Well, you really like Richi, yeah". Temptation Mary that makes Hugo instantly stiff.

"I'm just friends, Mom". Answer her nervously.

"More than that is okay too". The streaks again and the more pleased to see Hugo's faint smile.

"How's David doing, is he okay?" Mary's question made Hugo raise his face.

"Eh? You know my dad?"

"Of course, we're..."

"Let's go!" Richi shouted from the front of the living room suddenly and made some servants come to him.

"Sorry, Miss. Where's cockroaches?"

"That's it, try to find it!" Point it out, then walk quickly towards Hugo.

The servants quickly searched in various corners.

"Well, just look for it. Hugo, let's hurry!" Richi pulls Hugo's hand.

"I'm sorry, Mom." Hugo said to Mary.

Richi pushes Hugo's body out of his house. He quickly got into the car and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey, why did it come, anyway!" Tukas Richi when Hugo just got in his car.

"Are you not checking your phone? I've sent you a message to accompany me tonight."

"What's? Does it exist?" Richie checked his phone again.

"No?"

"No!"

Hugo quickly snatches Richi's phone and opens the message he sent.

"This what?" Show it in front of Richi's face.

"Oh, so that's you".

Hugo keeps his number on Richi's phone and writes his name.

"Well, save your phone and see nothing". Hugo hands Richi's phone and runs his car.

The more you say so, Richi the more curious and true, Hugo wrote his own name on Richi's phone.

"Hugo handsome?" Richi furrowed his brows as he read the name he had saved himself on Richi's phone. "It's so much confidence!" He said and changed his name.

"You replaced it? Why replaced? What are you changing for?" He asked curiously while occasionally glancing at Richi's phone.

"You know".

Hugo glanced at Richi's clothes.

"Why don't you wear a dress?"

Richi glanced at Hugo. "What effort?"

"Hmmm.." Hugo seemed to think. "Yes to look good."

Richi threw away his face in annoyance. "You should just go with your girlfriend. Ask him to wear what you want. Why set me up!" Richi said without seeing Hugo.

The man was silent. He knew he was wrong, but he didn't know how to stop being angry.

"J-so, where's this going?" Hugo asked nervously.

"Just give it up." Said without looking. Richi seems really upset.

"You're all mad at me, yeah. And if you don't want to look elegant, you just say it, right."

Richi flinched, Hugo was right. Though many people told him to change his appearance, but lightly he replied without burden. And now, why would he even get angry and bring Camilla all over?

"So, tell me a place for you to feel better". Hugo again.

Richi momentarily thinks of the place he wants to go, then he types an address in the head unit of the car and automatically the screen directs the way to somewhere.

"All right, we're there." Said Hugo with a smile because it turns out Richi is not difficult to face.

Arriving there, Richi immediately stared at the row of stairs that he had failed to climb with Emerald at that time.

"So, what's up there?" Hugo asked who was staring at the stairs.

"I don't know either. So let's go upstairs".

Richi moves up, then stops at the second rung. "Who is slow his call is a conch". He said and ran up the stairs.

"What! Hey, that's sneaky". Shouted Hugo then chased after Richi quickly. His long legs immediately climbed 2 stairs at once, even so Richi was still in front of him. That girl is fast.

"Hey, not fair!" Shouted Hugo who only got a laugh from Richi.

"Gurgh!" Hugo stopped in his place and Richi turned his head immediately upon hearing Hugo's groaning. He saw the man bending over while holding his right chest.

"Hugo, what's wrong with you?" Richi quickly went down and panicked because they were in the middle of a hill-like height.

Hugo grimaced then looked to the right, a beautiful sight plastered there. "That's." pointed it to his right, and Richi turned his head. He had seen the sight, but was still amazed.

"Hugo, are you. eh?"

Hugo laughed from above, he had already gone a long way. With annoyance Richi ran again following Hugo.

"It's so cute you!" Shouted Richi chasing Hugo who chuckled at the easily deceived Richi.
