Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

"Then how about I drop you off?" Maria offered with an innocent smile on her face.

'But when she was playing roulette with her family, didn't she say if she won the game, her father would have to buy her first car?' Rudy thought to himself. 'So she shouldn't have a car, right? Unless, of course, she is talking about her family member's car.'

Rudy nodded in agreement and said, "Why not."

"Yay!" Maria jumped in joy and took Rudy out of the casino from the backdoor.

"What about the rest of your family?" Rudy asked curiously.

"They already went home," Maria replied with a shrug.

"But inside, you said your brother was… oh…" Rudy realized that Maria lied to help Rudy out.

"Shall we go now?" Maria said with a grin on her face.

She took Rudy to her car, and Rudy was genuinely surprised to see it.

It was a black Limousine.

'Wow. Why am I even surprised?' Rudy asked with a soft scoff. 'I should have expected something like this.'

Maria opened the car's door, and eight men wearing black-suit walked out.

They stood on each side of the door to make way for Maria to enter the car. But they took out their weapons when they saw Rudy following him.

"He is with me," Maria said to the guards.

"But miss—"

Maria frowned her face and said, "He. Is. With. Me."

"With all due respect, I will have to let your father know about this," one of the guards said.

"I am just going to drop him off on the way," Maria stated. "Come one! I am 19 now! Give me some freedom!"

"..."

"..."

All the guards glanced at each other and nodded.

"Alright, miss."

"And I am going alone with him. You all can call another car from home," Maria asserted nonchalantly.

"...!"

"That's dangerous—"

Maria interrupted the guard and said, "I know what you are trying to say. But you should know that I have been trained to defend myself, right?"

"..."

The guards sighed and turned around to face their backs to each other. As though they were pretending not to see anything.

Maria beckoned Rudy with a smile on her face and said, "Come."

Rudy reluctantly sat in the car and closed the door behind him.

Rudy told Maria his address, but he didn't tell her the exact address.

Maria pressed the switch on the handrest of her seat and uttered Rudy's address.

[As you say, miss Maria,] the driver spoke.

The car started driving, and Rudy and Angelica made themselves comfortable on the seat while Maria looked out of the window.

'Her guards allowed it?! Seriously?!' Rudy couldn't believe why the guards would allow Maria to go with a complete stranger they had never seen before. That seemed highly unlikely since Rudy knew no bodyguards would do that.

'Unless she really means what she said a while ago…'

Maria wasn't kidding when she mentioned her training. She was truly trained in all types of combat, and she could easily defeat the elite guards in 1 vs. 1 combat. Of course, she would have a tough time fighting more than once.

However, even if all the guards tried to fight Rudy at once, they wouldn't even be able to touch him.

Rudy glanced around the interior of the car and saw it was completely different from the outside.

Sure, it wasn't his first time in the limousine. Anon had a similar car, and Rudy had traveled in it many times in his past life.

But this one was a lot different.

There were champagne bottles and all the necessary things for the parties. There was a disco light and automated seats that could be controlled with the remote.

However, what Rudy was the most surprised by was the guns in the drawer.

Rudy didn't mean to see them, but he was staring at the interior of the car so much that it activated his see-through ability, and he ended up seeing the things he shouldn't actually see.

Of course, Rudy acted normal and stayed calm. It wasn't as though his life was in danger anyway since he could easily blow up the car with a simple snap.

"What's wrong?" Maria asked. She tilted her head to the side while looking out of the window and asked, "You are silent all of a sudden."

"I was just wondering who you are. Your family is rich, and you have bodyguards. So you must be a celebrity or a daughter of the business—"

"No." Maria laughed out loud and said, "You are wrong."

"Oh…"

Maria finally locked her eyes with Rudy and said, "I am a mafia."

'Now, I am surprised!' Rudy yelled inwardly. 'But I should have predicted that already. There were lots of clues.'

That thought didn't cross Rudy's mind because of how loving their family was. It was highly unlikely that a mafia family would get along so well.

Furthermore, upon seeing and hearing her family members interact with each other, they seemed like a normal family.

'It's rare to see family members getting along—' Rudy stopped when he remembered how the brother and sister of the family got 'too' intimate with each other.

'I don't think anyone in the family knows about their incestuous activity.' Rudy looked at Maria and thought, 'And Maria doesn't give off mafia vibes, to be honest.'

'She said she donates to homeless people, and I don't think mafias care about anyone.' Rudy clenched his fists and muttered, "I know it because of a certain incident in my past life."

"Hmm? Did you say something?" Maria asked with a curious look on her face.

Rudy shook his head and said, "I guess there are good mafias too."

"Well, I wouldn't consider our syndicate as 'good' but yeah, we are the least violent among all the other syndicates," Maria asserted.

'I can know more about them through Maria.'

Rudy played dumb and asked, "How many syndicates are there in the underworld?"

"There are 12 pillars of the underworld. But there are many syndicates. Some are small organizations that are not in any syndicates, and then there are small gangs you see on the streets."

After a brief pause, Maria said, "Out of the 12 pillars, my family— the Ross Syndicate is the wealthiest. But we are not the strongest."

Meanwhile, Angelica was masturbating in front of Rudy to distract him from his conversation with Maria.
