Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 555 Visiting The Haunted House Again



Rudy teleported to the forest to the spot where he had met Rias last night.

“I am getting nervous for some reason. I was truly baffled when I saw her last night, but I kept my cool, and I was totally focused on Jessica, so I prioritized Jessica over Rias for obvious reasons.

But now that everything has settled and I am going to meet Rias, I feel…conflicted. I have already realized that time traveling to 1989 was supposed to happen… or should I say, it has already happened once… for Rudy in the future— that would be me.

If that wasn’t the case, I wouldn’t have found my new wallet on Jessica’s grave. So whatever I do in this timeline— or what was supposed to happen in this timeline— has already occurred in 2008.

That would explain so many things. And there is a chance to find my real parents too. Were they humans? And why do I have the Lord’s power? I have so many questions left unanswered.

However, I know the answers to the other questions I had.

Why did I feel the warmth and the connection when I met Angelica for the first time in that tunnel? Because, even if she had no memory, deep down, she recognized me? No wonder I was so eager to save her.

But… who is Elena? If everything has already happened in 2008, then she should know me in 2008, right? But up until now, I have never met her. She was 18 years old in 1989, so in 2008, she should be 37 or something.

I am also currently 18, although I am pretending to be 23 to seem like an adult.

Wait, what if I had actually met Elena, but she never told me anything? And since she is 37, she would look mature and different because of her age. I wish to return to 2008 for a few minutes and find Elena.”

Rudy lowered his gaze as he slowly walked towards Rias’ house. He wasn’t in a hurry because he was nervous and lost in different thoughts.

“Still, ever since I found out that the flow of time in 2008 has basically stopped for me, I am not worried about the girls since they would never realize that I have been missing.

I do miss them a lot, though.

Coming back to the topic, since whatever I did in 1989 has already happened in 2008, should I even be worried about the consequences of my actions? Whatever I do is supposed to happen.

Seriously, this is so mind-blogging. It’s best if I don’t think about it, but I can’t help myself. Moreover, I now know the answer to the biggest mystery question I have had for a long time.

Why and how did Rias fall in love with me in 2008? When I told her my name, she jumped on me and began hugging me to show her affection.

The answer is that I had already met her in 1989, and she fell in love with me at that time. Maybe I later wiped her memory and made it so she would remember everything when she learned my name in 2008?

But wouldn’t that mean she already knew everything? Did she know that I was the Lord? Perhaps, I never told her in the 1989 timeline?

I have always been eager to know why Rias fell in love with me, and whenever I asked her, she avoided the topic or passed it off as a joke. And when I asked Jane, she called me stupid.

She must have noticed it after she drank my blood, and I showed her my memory.” Rudy let out a sigh and muttered, “And I thought she was just drunk (high) on my blood.

So, in other words… Rias has waited for me for that long? That’s a long… really long time. Once I return to the 2008 timeline, I should treat her something. Let’s hope she has finally decided to tell everything to Jane.

She has been holding my threesome card in her hand. Now, enough about 2008. Let’s focus on 1989 and make Rias fall in love with me. It shouldn’t be that hard, right?

I mean…” Rudy shrugged with a confident look on his face and said, “I make the haughty girl like Jane fall for me, so it shouldn’t be that tough to make Rias fall for me. And I hate to admit but… our first meeting last night wasn’t exactly what I would call romantic.

For the first time, I had used the Lord’s command and intimidation on someone. Wish me luck, 2008 Rias and Angelica.”

Rudy knocked on the door, but as he had expected, he received no response.

‘If possible, I truly don’t want to enter this house. It brings back some nightmarish memories that I don’t want to remember. But I didn’t have my powers at that time, so it should be easy this time.’

Rudy unlocked the door using his powers and entered the house.

BANG!

When he looked back, the door had disappeared.

“Oh, great.”

Rudy walked around the house, this time nailing all the traps, and nonchalantly sat on the chair in the middle of the living room.

“Hmph! Not bad,” Rias’ voice echoed in the house, although she was nowhere to be seen.

“Can you come out now? I am here to meet you, not your house.”

“Why do you show no sign of fear? Even the strongest warriors from the vampire world, who had come to take me back, were so afraid after entering this house that they ran away after promising that they would never return.”

Even though Rias wasn’t there, Rudy could easily feel the curiosity in her voice.

“I will tell you if you show yourself in front of me.”

“Nice try, Mister. But I am not appearing in front of you. You were so scary last night that I had nightmares about you all night when I slept.”

“Oh? So I am already coming in your dreams?” Rudy scoffed softly. “That’s a development.”

“Shut up!”

“Okay, let’s be serious.” Rudy conjured a tennis ball in his hand— that he had copied at home— and asked, “What do I have to do to make you appear in front of me?”

“Strip.”
