Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 489 Dinner With The Girls

The girls and Rudy were sitting on the chair and using Reina's desk as a dining table.

Reina had ordered at least one dish of each type and even different types of drinks.

"..."

"..."

Jane, Niti, and Vriti were glancing back and forth between Rudy and Rias. For them, the human food was nothing but weird.

"What's wrong?" Rudy asked while sucking noodles. "Start eating. Noodles taste good only when they are hot. And don't forget the spicy soup."

"How do you even eat this thing?" Jane asked as he raised a noodle with her finger.

"Don't touch it. Use the fork. And at least, try having a few bites before judging them."

The girls began to eat, and so did Reina, who was waiting for the girls to start. Rias had no problem in eating as she had spent a fair amount of time in the human world and had eaten various human cuisines.

"How is it?" Rudy asked the girls with a curious look on his face.

"I don't know. It doesn't taste bad, but it's weird. And definitely not better than the food in the vampire world," Jane responded.

"I can make a few similar dishes here if you want me to, princess Jane," Niti stated.

"You can?"

"It won't taste exactly the same, but a little similar, yeah."

"Okay then. Make it when we have a home. We can't make it here."

After eating for a few minutes, Jane suddenly stopped and turned to Rudy with a curious and surprised look on her face.

"Wait, does that mean you felt the same when you were eating vampire food?"

"Uhh… kind of. But that was no big deal for me. I have always been a good eater, and I rarely nitpick when it comes to food. So you can say I can eat anything you serve me," Rudy responded with a soft chuckle and a smile on his face.

After eating dinner, Rudy helped Reina with the dishes and talked to her for a while.

"Alright, now that everything is taken care of, I want to ask you guys if you have something to say."

Jane raised her hand and asked, "When are we going to an actual house."

"Soon. I am working on it. I can get one now, but this is not a fictional story. The government and officials will notice it, and they will come after me, who will also go after you girls."

After a brief pause, he continued, "Actually, there is a big estate if you are curious. But that's far away from here, and I don't own that place. I brought you all here as it's closer to my town and we can meet whenever you want.

And before you say anything, yes, I can teleport anywhere I want, but you can't. If you want to meet me, you all would have to fly all the way here or to my house. Uhh… let's say…"

Rudy took out his phone and opened the 'Underworld' app. He scrolled down and said, "Wait for five days, I guess? There is an auction in the underworld, and there are chances that they might be auctioning some unused lands and homes. We will be lucky if I can get my hands on them."

Niti raised her hand and asked, "What is underworld? Do you mean hell?"

"No, of course not. I don't want to go to hell, willingly or unwillingly," Rudy groaned. "Underworld is a place where… umm, all thugs and gangsters gather. Although that's just a layer, it's much more than that.

The underworld is a country of people…. well, mostly humans. And all kinds of stuff happens there. You might think, why and how is that a safe place for you girls and the answer is that I know the ruler or… you can say, the monarch-ess? She rules over the underworld, so I can ask her for security.

And they know everything about this world and the world before that. They know about the Lord and the untold stories of this world. And I personally think you would like it there."

"Okay."

Rudy turned to Reina and said, "I contacted the builder this morning, and he said he would come to look at this place and the other land for our project. I only want a blueprint from him. We will also have to take permissions from the government and such."

SIGH!

"Everything is so complicated…" He shook his head in frustration. "Part of me just wants to hypnotize everyone. But let's take a natural and legal approach for now to avoid unnecessary drama in the future. If things get even a little more complicated, I will resort to mind-controlling them. No one can stand in my path to my dream. Otherwise… I will crush them."

Rudy pointed his fingers at three beds in the corner and said, "I could only arrange three beds, which I think will be enough for you three girls."

"But…" Niti counted everyone and said, "There are five girls."

"Reina will sleep at night and do work during the day. While you girls will be sleeping during the day, right? Since you can't come in daylight. And if you are not sleeping, then you can always wander around."

"I will handle the sun," he shortly added.

"But even if we sleep during the day, there are four vampires," Jane stated.

"Oh!" Rudy smirked at Vriti and said, "I totally forgot about you, Virti."

"..." Vriti gritted her teeth and glared furiously at Rudy. "I really really really hate you!"

"Yeah, I can see that."

"Vriti!" Niti shook Vriti and whispered violently. "That's no way to talk to him!"

"I have no respect for him, mother."

"That doesn't matter. You can't talk to him like that. Don't you know who he is?!"

"So what if he is the husband of princess Rias? This man is despicable, and that's a fact," Vriti commented.

"What are you talking about?! Master Rudy is the almighty Lord!"

Vriti's face turned pale after hearing that, and her facial expression suddenly changed.

"Wha…t?"

'This girl is so ignorant and oblivious of everything, it's surprising,' Rudy uttered inwardly.
