Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 774 Demerits And Merits Of Harem

Rudy was in Eleanor's office, fixing his clothes.

"Hey, are you free tonight?" Eleanor asked, wearing her top.

"I don't know. Why do you ask?"

"I was thinking maybe we could… go on a date?"

"Dates are for kids."

"Then I am a kid."

Rudy chuckled softly and turned to Eleanor.

"I can't promise if I am free or not. Anything can come up as we might need to cancel our plans that would make you sad. I don't want to do anything that would make you sad, knowingly or unknowingly," he explained calmly.

Eleanor looked at her watch and said, "We will go on a date this weekend. Be ready."

"Should I buy condoms?" he asked jokingly.

"If you can find your size," Eleanor shrugged. "Which I highly doubt."

"I love you."

"I love you too."

"I want to fulfill my promise to you."

"Hmm~? You are going to impregnate me on our date?"

"No. I am talking about the promise from eighteen years ago. I want to marry you, Eleanor."

"But we already got married that day."

"Yes, but I want to marry you again, this time properly. We will have guests."

"But… then… Eric and Erika would…"

"By guests, I mean my other harem members."

"Ah…"

"Actually… I haven't told this to anyone, but I plan to marry them all soon. I want to have a proper wedding, where they can get dressed as a bride and do all the things they want. Follow their culture and tradition.

I might arrange the wedding in the vampire world if Jane and Rias don't mind it."

"Okay, so how soon is soon?"

"Tomorrow."

"..."

Eleanor paused for a few seconds and stared at Rudy with a serious look on her face. She assumed he was joking, but after seeing the unfazed look on his face, she realized he might be serious about it.

"Are you… sure?"

"By tomorrow, I don't mean after twenty-four hours. I have to ask the girls if they are ready. And the first one is you, are you ready?" he asked.

"It might be too sudden, but… sure. I am ready whenever you are. If we go to the vampire world… we will be stuck there for two weeks or something, right? That's what you told me eighteen years ago.

I don't want to stay there for two weeks. Eric will be worried sick. And I have never been out of town for more than a week."

"I will make sure of that. The vampires know better about this topic."

Eleanor kissed Rudy on the lips and said, "Go now. Or my employees will think I took a three-hour lunch break."

"Then tell them it took you ten minutes to make a half-glass worth milkshake."

"It was definitely more than that."

Rudy teleported to the school's playground where he had left Alice and Janet, but… they weren't there.

"Uhh… I thought it wasn't a bad idea to leave them alone."

Rudy tracked Janet, but she was still untrackable, so he tracked Alice and found their live location.

'What are they doing inside a classroom?'

Rudy teleported to the nearest classroom and walked his way to the location. There, he saw Alice and Rize sitting on the desk while Janet was standing on the stage by the board.

'What the…'

Rudy knocked and opened the door. He moved his hand forward and asked, "May I come in, miss."

Janet squinted her eyes and asked, "Why are you here? We didn't call you, did we?"

"I have always been a curious kid, and I like to study more. So I am here to study…" Rudy looked at the writings on the board and asked, "What the heck are you teaching?"

"She is showing us the demerits of a harem," Alice answered.

"Janet, why are you trying to break my harem?" Rudy's face twitched.

"I am not. We are simply debating. I am listing out all the demerits while Miss Rize and Alice are listing out the merits. They both are adults and mature. Surely, they can decide for themselves once this debate has ended," Janet shrugged.

"..."

"You have nothing to be afraid of if the merits are more than demerits, right?" she then asked with a knowing look on her face.

"Well…"

"Or do you not have enough confidence?"

"It's not like that."

"Oh, so you don't trust your harem members and think that they might leave your harem because of the debate?"

"It's not that."

"Then what is it, Rudy?" she asked, staring seriously at him.

"I know the merits are more than the demerits, I am confident, and I trust my harem members, but I know how this is going to end up."

"Oh? Do tell me."

"You are going to lose this debate. In fact, deep down, you know that you are already losing it. And once you lose, you are going to get angry and try to take out your frustration by trying to find my and my harem members' flaws.

You would try to break us apart. You would then start hating my harem members and try to hurt them. You would want to prove why you are better than them and why I should choose you. You… are going to end up on a dark path… alone."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Calm down. I am a normal high school girl. I wouldn't do something so psychotic. Never! If I hurt your lovers, you would hate me, and I don't want that!"

"The thought of me hating you would never come to your mind. You will be obsessed with me."

"No…" Janet took a few steps back and hit the board. "I… wouldn't. That doesn't sound right."

"I know. And I also know you are not that type of girl. But believe me… that's how it's going to end up. Listen, I am trying to help you. I will love you if you want me to love you. But don't… continue this debate."
