Esper Harem in the Apocalypse



After dropping Rias off at the pool house and meeting with everyone, Rudy left for his house with Angelica and Lilim.

Maria asked Lilim to stay at the pool house with her, but she couldn't get used to the vampires. And a demon and a vampire living in the same room wouldn't end well.

Rudy went to his house, and Lucy was the one who opened the door. She was happy and relieved as Rudy was back, but all her happiness vanished when she saw two girls with Rudy.

They made it to the living room and sat comfortably, but Lucy stood in front of them with puffed cheeks.

"While we were worried, you were hanging out with girls?!" She shouted with a furious look on her face.

"Relax. I went to pick a guest up."

Lucy looked at Angelica and said, "I know you, you have been here before. But…"

She stared at Lilim and raised her brow, "I have never seen you before. And you look… old."

"Umn… as a girl, you should know that we are sensitive about age," Lilim smiled forcefully. "Especially during the first meeting.

Lucy truly needed to work on phrasing her sentences.

"No, no. I am sorry. I didn't mean it like that. I was saying that Rudy and Angelica look the same age, but you look old compared to them. You can't be their classmate."

"Yes, she isn't. She is…"

"She is my friend," Rebecca quipped.

Lucy turned around to look at Rebecca and asked, "She is… your friend?"

"Yes. She is an old friend, or you may consider us as childhood friends. I had sent Rudy to pick her up in the next city."

"Then… why were you asking me about Rudy when you woke up?" Lucy asked with a confused and curious look on her face.

"That's precisely why I was asking."

"But… wait… if this…ermm…" Lucy glanced back and forth between Rebecca and Lilim.

"My name is Lilim," Lilim introduced herself.

"Thank you. If Lilim is your old friend, she must have seen this house, right? So why did Rudy have to go pick her up?"

"Because this town has changed."

Lucy suddenly gulped down and went into the kitchen after saying, "I will bring something to drink."

Rudy watched her and raised his brow with a puzzled look on his face.

'How did… Lucy knows that mom grew up in this house? Even I didn't know that until I went to 1989. Mom only said Lilim is her childhood friend, and I went to pick her up— which makes perfect sense.

Mom moved into this town and house after getting married, or so she should think. So how did she know this was mom's house in childhood?'

After drinking water, Rebecca told them to move to the dining table to eat as it was already night and time for her shift.

Since Rebecca had only made food for three people, Rudy secretly copied and pasted the dishes to increase the quantity.

Rebecca and Rudy were sitting side by side. Lucy and Angelica were seated next to each other, while Lilim was on the other side.

'I never thought this was how our first family dinner would be,' Rudy uttered inwardly.

"So…" Lucy glanced at Angelica and asked, "Were you home alone today too?"

"No, but Rudy said I can come here," Angelica replied in a haughty tone.

'I don't see this ending well.' Rudy shook his head.

"I see." Lucy shot a glance at Rudy.

"He also offered me to stay the night here, so I will."

Lucy clenched the spoon in her grasp, and her glance turned into a glare.

"So that means we will be sharing a bed tonight. I hope you don't mind."

"Of course not." Lucy smiled forcefully at Angelica and said, "Why would I mind if my brother brings a classmate over for dinner and asks her to spend the night at his house. That is perfectly normal behavior between two classmates, am I right?"

No, it isn't.

"Since Angelica will be sharing a bed with Lucy, I guess I will have to share a bed with Rudy."

Lilim saw the opening and striked Lucy's bleeding wound at the perfect time.

"I hope that is okay with you, Rebecca."

"Do whatever you want. Just don't do things you are not supposed to do, but if you do do that, make sure I never find out."

"I will sleep on the couch, then," Rudy came to Lucy's defense with a shield.

"I will do the same," Lucy added.

Suddenly, Rudy's ears twitched, and he turned his face to the direction of the front door. The door handle turned, and a man wearing glasses and an office suit walked in with a suitcase in his hand.

It was Joe. He had returned from his business trip.

"Dad!" Lucy got up from her seat and rushed to the front door to greet Joe.

"Hey…" Joe struggled to take off his shoes as both his hands were busy holding the suitcase and a handbag.

Lucy took the handbag and the suitcase from Joe's hand and took them to the living room.

After taking his shoes off, Joe moved to the living room and sat on the couch. Soon, Rudy came with a glass of water in his hand and gave it to Joe.

"Thank you," Joe thanked him for his hospitality.

Rebecca followed Rudy, and so did Angelica and Lilim.

When Joe's gaze fell upon Angelica and Lilim, he stopped drinking the water and asked, "I… didn't know we had guests over. I probably arrived at the wrong time."

"You should have told us you were coming," Lucy remarked. "What if we were out?"

"My phone died, and I was too tired to do anything. The taxi dropped me off outside the house, although the driver charged extra bucks," Joe responded with a slight smile on his face.

"We were just having dinner. Come join us," Rebecca invited Joe for dinner.

"Nah, I am good. I just want to sleep, if you don't mind."

"Okay…"

Joe went to Rebecca's room and took off his coat. He laid down on the bed and fell asleep within two minutes.

Rudy and the girls looked at each other's faces, seemingly wondering who was going to sleep where and how.
