Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 1041  Rudy's Mysterious Girlfriend

Even though the revelation was unbelievable, everything made sense. With how there were a few changes in the world's dynamics, Rudy was convinced. After all, in the previous world lines, Erika had confessed her love to Rudy, but Rudy at that time, wasn't looking for a relationship.

Ever since the apocalypse had begun, everything had stopped and the only thing the world focused on was to get strong and survive on their own. Everyone could become a hero and instead of relying on others, they could save their own asses.

'Erika went abroad to continue her advanced studies, and she confessed her love to me before leaving… That is how it always went, but this time it's different. Maybe because of the apocalypse, Erika couldn't go abroad? She is as strong as Eric, even stronger in some rankings.

Well, still… I am a bit shocked, not going to lie. It's not that I don't like Erika, but for some reason, I was unable to see her as a love interest. I intentionally went late to the airport to make it seem like I missed her, while my only goal was to avoid answering her confession.

It didn't seem right to reject her. I grew up with her and I saw her as my sister, so having a sudden change in our relationship made me take a step back. I needed more time…no… who am I kidding?

Why am I lying to myself? Alice and Erika have the same kind of relationship with me. Yet, I saw Alice as a love interest but not Erika, that doesn't make sense. Anyway, no point in thinking about it now.

In this Worldline, Erika is my girlfriend so I should be one. We will see how it goes from now on. I can't wait to meet her, though. I haven't seen her in ages… it feels like decades.'

Now that the mystery regarding Rudy's mysterious girlfriend was solved, he could rest easy. In fact, having Erika as his girlfriend was the best thing that could happen to him. If his girlfriend turned out to be a stranger whom he had never interacted with in the past world lines, he couldn't be bothered continuing their relationship.

He would have broken up with her without second thoughts.

Rudy gave the phone back to Janet and let her go.

"Thanks for answering my questions," he said. "Let's leave."

This time, Janet was the one who stopped Rudy by grabbing his hand.

"Wait a minute, we aren't done yet. You haven't answered my questions!"

"What questions?" Rudy raised a brow.

"How could you do such a thing to Alice? I don't care about you, but you know that Alice is emotionally sensitive and can't handle guilt and pressure. She herself would have never attempted to do such a thing if you hadn't forced her to."

Janet's voice was calm, yet somehow loud. Her face was a mixture of sadness and disappointment, with a bit of anger.

How was Rudy to explain to her about his idea of harem? How was he supposed to explain it to anyone?

"Answer me!" Janet demanded.

After thinking for a few seconds, Rudy asked, "Did Alice tell you all this?"

"Yes…"

"That's a lie."

"She told me how you kissed her. And how she is feeling guilty about it." Janet frowned her face. "Tell me, why should she be the one feeling guilty when you were the one who committed the crime?"

"It is true that it was me who kissed her, but I don't think of it as a crime." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Cheating is a crime!"

"That is not cheating. I love Alice and that's why I kissed her. I would do the same again. Relationships work differently for everyone, and it is unique in my case." Rudy placed his hands on Janet's shoulders and looked into her eyes.

With a calm yet serious expression on his face, he asserted, "I will fix everything and everyone will be happy. Even you. Do you believe me?"

"How… will you do that? It's an impossible task…" Janet muttered her thoughts.

"I promise you." "Okay… I believe you…"

Rudy and Janet hurried to the class, or rather… the boss battle.

"This is how you solve this equation. Remember, it doesn't matter how you solve it. What matters is that you get the right answer. But you have to provide the explanation step by step to prove the answer and—"

Rize was busy teaching the students, but she stopped when she caught the glimpse of Rudy in the doorway.

Neither Rudy nor Janet could dare to barge into the room and pretend that it was normal.

As soon as they reached the classroom, they both started pushing each other to the door, since the first one to go to the battle was always a sacrificial lamb. "You two, come inside," Rize ordered.

Rudy and Janet stood by the door with a composed look on their faces.

"Go and sit in your seat." Rize signaled with her eyes.

Rudy and Janet glanced at each other with a confused look on their faces. Why were they let in so easily and why wasn't Rize angry?

However, the reason was that Rize didn't want to waste precious minutes of her lecture in questioning and scolding Rudy and Janet.

When Rudy sat on his seat, which was next to Alice, he noticed how she fidgeted. Seemingly nervous about what would have happened between Rudy and Janet.

A few minutes later, Rize called Rudy to solve an equation which she had taught when Rudy wasn't present in the class. Rize wanted to mess with Rudy, which was a common practice for them.

Still, Rudy didn't like how Rize called him, but not Janet. Nonetheless, the equation was a piece of cake for him and he could solve it in two steps using an advanced method, which a high school student shouldn't know since it was too hard for them to understand.

However, Rudy solved the equation and went back to his seat.

Now, Rize was furious and she couldn't wait for the lecture to end so she could punish Rudy.

"Rudy and Janet. Come to my office after the lecture ends," she ordered.
