Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 530 Teaching Life Lesson To Rebecca

After eating dinner, Rebecca went to her room and began doing her homework that was due because she had gone on a school trip. She was planning to do it the next day as there was no school, but since Rudy told them they would be going shopping, she was excited.

Meanwhile, Jessica was staring at Rudy— on the living room couch— from the bed in Rebecca's room.

'To be honest, her stare freaks me out. It never gets old.'

Rudy gestured her to come to the living room, and surprisingly, she did. But she didn't come near him and kept her distance from him.

"What is it?" she asked.

"I just wanted to thank you for keeping everything a secret from mo… from Rebecca."

"That's because you didn't seem like a bad person. But I will tell her everything if you try to do anything funny."

p "Wow, you just threatened me, and I am actually scared. But I am curious about what you mean by 'funny'?" Rudy asked curiously.

"Like trying to kidnap us," she said innocently.

"And do what? Make you food every day?" he chuckled softly.

"If I can get to eat your cooking every day, I won't mind if you kidnap me."

"Oh? Was my cooking that good?"

"Yes!" Jessica nodded violently. "Where did you learn to cook like that?"

"I learned from my… mom," Rudy responded with a distant smile on his face.

"I am also trying to learn to cook from sis. You have no idea how tasty her cooking is!"

"Is that so? Then who's cooking was better? Mine or your sister's?"

"Urm…" Jessica closed her eyes and pondered for a while. She kept pondering and pondering but couldn't think of a proper response.

"Come on, it's not that hard. Just choose one," Rudy shrugged.

Still, Jessica kept pondering, and after a few minutes, she looked into Rudy's eyes and made a run to Rebecca's room. She ran away because she didn't want to answer who was a better cook.

Rudy let his slide as he didn't want to win against the girl who had taught him cooking.

As time passed, the night became darker. Rebecca was already done with her homework, but she was studying up late. But because Jessica was sleeping in the bed in the same room, Rebecca had turned off the light.

She was sitting by the window and using the moon's light to read her book. When Rudy saw that, he called Rebecca to the living room and asked her to turn on the light. But Rebecca refused and said she didn't want to waste electricity.

"You can destroy one thing to save another. By not using light to read, you are straining your eyes. In the near future, you will have eye problems, and that's going to cost you a lot more than just saving electricity," he asserted in a calm voice.

"..."

"Listen, Rebecca. As an adult, I want to give you a piece of advice." He patted Rebecca on the head and said, "Never put others above you. Never sacrifice your own happiness for others. Never try to play a hero. Never try to meet anyone's expectations. Never try to please someone. Never accept everything before thinking of the consequences. Never think you are the weird one if you differ from what others do. Never normalize someone's normal. Never care for everyone… no, only care for those who care for you. And lastly, never have an idol figure in your life because instead of becoming like them, you will chase them blindly."

"I… I forgot half of the things you said, and I can't remember the rest."

"..."

"I was kidding," Rebecca grinned. "But I don't understand why you would say those words? Shouldn't you say the opposite?"

"Yes, some of them. But I am telling you what I want to do. Being selfish is not a bad thing, but being a narcissist, overly selfish, egoist, and egotist is a bad thing. However, there is a limit to everything. One can be everything I just mentioned and still be a kind person. But not everyone's the same."

Rebecca got up and walked to her room without saying anything.

"..."

Rudy watched Rebecca climb her bed and lay down, seemingly going to sleep.

"Did I say something I shouldn't have?" he asked himself.

SIGH!

Rudy decided to sleep as well, so he headed upstairs to his room after locking the doors. But much to his surprise, there was no bed in the room.

"Well… I will sleep on the living room couch then."

Rudy went downstairs and crashed on the couch. Fortunately, he had mastered a sleeping technique that allowed him to fall asleep within a minute, so he fell asleep instantly.

He knew he wouldn't get any sleep if he was stuck doing something else, so he had to learn a technique to sleep as fast as possible. And the reason he wanted to sleep was to rest and restore his mental energy, not to relax his body.

There were also times when Rudy simply shut his mind and used only 0.00001% of it, which allowed him to stay awake but in a meditative state. By doing that, he could restore his mental energy without sleeping.

He mostly used the technique when he was in school or when he was at home.

The clock ticked as the time passed, but when the time hit exactly 6:09 AM in the morning, his eyes wide opened.

"..."

He stared at the ceiling and closed his eyes to calm himself, but that didn't work.

'This is bad. It has been exactly twenty-four hours since Maria and I finished the last round. We had fun all night, and whenever Maria felt tired or sleepy, she just drank my cum, which worked as an energy drink for her. But when it was morning, Maria couldn't keep up and fell asleep while sucking me off.'

Rudy's… super libido was at work again, and it was raging for exploration.
