Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

"Stoooopid! Stupid! Stoooopid~!"

"...." Rudy watched Jane with a confused and curious look on his face.

'Is she drunk?' Rudy wondered. 'She is smiling and seems like she is above the clouds. She has drank my blood many times now, so that shouldn't be the case.'

"You are an idiot~," Jane commented while licking the spot from where she sucked his blood.

The two holes healed instantly, but that wasn't because of Jane but Rudy's powers. Jane was simply trying to disinfect it even though there was no need to.

"So? Why is the princess of idiots calling me an idiot?" Rudy asked curiously.

"You said you don't know why Rias fell in love with you. But after seeing your memories, it's obvious why," Jane stated.

"Is that… so? Then tell me why."

"Heh! Why should I? Figure it out yourself," Jane said with a haughty expression on her face.

'Haughty Jane is back…' This was the first time Rudy wasn't happy with the haughty Jane.

Of course, Rudy wasn't going to sit still and let Jane make fun of him. It was impossible for anyone to mess with Rudy and get away with it.

"Okay." He smirked from the corner of his lips and said, "I may not know why Rias fell for me, but do you know why her cheeky sister fell in love with me?"

Jane's face flushed red instantly. She glared at Rudy and uttered, "I never said that I love you."

"Oh? Your Mister Dick will be sad if he hears this, you know?"

"Gah!" Jane made the noise again.

'I have noticed her doing that a couple of times now. Is that her signature action or something? It's kind of cute.'

Jane moved her gaze to the plates on the table and asked, "Are you done eating?"

"Well, yeah. I am satisfied." Rudy responded with a nod. He glanced around the table and muttered, "In the end, none of them came. I would have given them a 'warm' welcome."

"Then…" Jane pulled Rudy's sleeves and lowered her gaze to look at his snake before saying, "Is Mister Dick free for a quick visit?"

'Her sex drive is crazy!'

"Uhh… well, dick just returned after exploring a narrow cave, so let it rest for now. How about you spend some time with Mister Rudy?"

Jane averted her gaze and said, "Mister Rudy is boring…"

"Oh? I could say the same about you," Rudy scoffed out loud.

"What do you mean…?"

"You were so easy to seduce. Not going to lie, I think you were the easiest one in my harem."

"That's because I let you seduce me!" Jane hissed. But she soon realized what she had said and covered her mouth.

"I knew it!" Rudy moved his face close to Jane and licked her cheeks before moving to her ear and whispering, "You know, I like the haughty side of you the most. But on the bed, I prefer the meek Jane. She is cute when she tries to hold her cute and sexy when she moans. Not to mention your vampire strength. It was truly an amazing night."

Rudy didn't even need to look at Jane's face because the blush had spread to her pointy ears too.

"Hmm? What's wrong, princess? Rudy smirked even more and said, "Don't you want to listen to Mister Dick's adventure tales to various caves?"

Jane got up from her chair in embarrassment and turned around.

"Let's leave now!"

"Oh? Is the princess suddenly embarrassed or simply jealous of other girls who have tasted Mister Dick before?" Rudy teased her even more.

The outcome of their verbal battle was decided even before it began. There was no way anyone could defeat Rudy as long as he knew the opponent's weakness, and he happened to know every side of Jane inside out— Except the other things that Jane hadn't shared yet.

After realizing she had no chance of teasing Rudy, she turned around and looked at him with teary eyes.

"So this is the love you talked about?" she sniffed. "Are you going to do this every day?"

Jane pulled a victim card. However, Rudy was used to such tactics. He carried Jane in his arms and teleported outside the palace in the sky.

"Let's go on a date," he said in a calm voice.

"First, let me down."

"There is no 'down'. We are in the air."

Jane jumped from Rudy's arms and dived to the ground. But she sprouted her wings and flapped them to fly even higher than Rudy.

She then looked at him with a smug look on her face and said, "We vampires are the creatures born with wings. No one can surpass us when it comes to flying, not even the dragons, who are supposed to be the creatures of the sky."

"Come on. That has to be a lie. I saw the vampires flying last night, and they weren't that fast. Besides, I don't think they can beat the dragons. I have never seen a dragon, but they are big, mighty creatures who can crush dozens under their feet and send them flying by flapping their wings. They can burn the forests with their breath and shatter mountains with their roars," he asserted in a single breath while moving his hands as gestures.

Jane couldn't help but squint her eyes after seeing Rudy praise the dragons. She felt jealous, but she felt a little offended too.

Just like any other race, they hated to be compared to other races, even more, when they were considered weak against the other one.

While most of the things Rudy said about the dragons were true, he didn't have a single proof to vouch for that. He said all that by what he learned from watching movies and playing games at Eric's house sometimes.

"Very well." Jane folded her arms below her bosom and pointed her gaze at a massive building a few miles away from them. "Let's race till there."
