Esper Harem in the Apocalypse - Chapter 991 Rudy's Final Message

Chapter 991  Rudy’s Final Message

As the screen shimmered to life, a hushed reverence settled over the assembled group on the balcony. They were about to witness a message from Rudy, and the air was thick with anticipation. Jane, though wary of the intruder, watched the projection with a mix of sadness and yearning in her eyes.

Rudy, in his stony throne-like form, began to speak. His voice was calm and collected, yet carried a weight of profound sorrow. Every word he uttered was a poignant note that reverberated through the hearts of his harem members.

[So… well, I don’t really know what to say except apologize for everything you are going through. When I learned about the true duty of the Lord, I knew how my ending would be. It was never meant to be happy.

I didn’t know what would happen to me once I fulfilled the duty. If I didn’t, I was afraid that I would lose my powers and someone else would get them who would use them for evil purposes. However, I was recently told that I wasn’t the Lord, but someone greater, better and more powerful.]

Tears welled up in the eyes of the girls, each of them struggling with their emotions. Jane clenched her fists, her eyes glistening, clearly tormented by the events that had transpired. The others displayed a complex mixture of grief, understanding, and heartache.

[That came as a surprise since I had no knowledge of that, even after eating the blue moon fruit. And that made me curious to know everything in the universe… if obtaining omniscience is actually possible or not.

But it could just be my own problem since I… started the apocalypse a few hours after eating the blue moon fruit. It could be that I had knowledge of it, but simply didn’t remember it. My human body couldn’t sustain the powers and knowledge.]

When Rudy mentioned his surprise about his true nature, the girls exchanged glances, wondering about the mysteries that had unfolded in their absence. While Rias listened with a sense of dawning comprehension.

Elena, who had maintained a sense of calm throughout the situation, couldn’t help but let a tear escape. Her stoic exterior was briefly shattered as the depth of Rudy’s words reached her.

Alice, known for her quiet and introspective nature, watched Rudy’s message with a solemn expression. She was absorbed in Rudy’s words, her thoughts a mystery to those around her. Rudy’s unexpected disappearance had affected her profoundly, and this message stirred up her emotions once more. [Anyway, please don’t think that I abandoned all of you. I love you and I will keep loving you till the day I turn to dust. I didn’t use any of you, what I had in my heart was love, nothing else. But.. I had no choice.

I thought about it, you see… to run away with all of you, to create a new universe for just us. But then I wondered if any of you will ever be truly happy? And that’s why… I created the dynasty. It was secluded from the outside world and it had everything you would need.]

Rebecca, Lucy, and Angelica exchanged glances, each trying to suppress their emotions, but the quiver in their lips betrayed the deep impact Rudy’s words had on them. The girls had grown attached to Rudy in his absence, and his message stirred complex feelings within them.

Niti, the curious and energetic member of the harem, listened to Rudy’s message with rapt attention. Her eyes sparkled with empathy, and she pondered the significance of his words. For her, Rudy had been a source of inspiration, and his message left her deep in thought.

Reina, ever the fiercely loyal member of the harem, had tears glistening in her eyes. Her gaze was fixed on the projection of Rudy, her expression filled with a mixture of sadness and devotion. She had been one of the first to join Rudy, and her connection with him ran deep. Ruby, with her cheerful and carefree disposition, found herself sniffling and wiping away a stray tear. Rudy had been a central figure in her life, offering protection and guidance, and the weight of his absence weighed on her. Her emotions were a mixture of nostalgia and hope for the future.

Rize, often contemplative and perceptive, had a pensive expression as Rudy’s words washed over her. She knew the complexities of their shared history and the challenges that had defined their relationship. [I brought the superhumans and the beings of the other races there, so the dynasty wouldn’t feel empty. And I… am sorry. I am sorry I wasn’t there for any of you in my last moments. I wish I had spent them with you all.

And Maria, congratulations on giving birth to twins. I don’t know if they are listening to this, but if they are, please let them live a normal life. There is no gain in becoming the strongest or achieving everything if you have to sacrifice your happiness in its stead. It’s not worth it.]

Tears streamed down Maria’s cheeks as Rudy addressed her, congratulating her on the birth of twins. Her heart was heavy, hearing these words from the statue of the man she loved. Mary and Reed, the twins, were too young to understand the gravity of the message. Still, their innocent eyes followed the luminous image of their absent father, as if seeking the comfort of a presence they could never know.

[Mary and Reed, you have never seen me but you probably know how I looked like. Handsome, right? I don’t know how you two look like, but I am sure Mary will grow up to be a beautiful woman, just like your mother. And Reed will become a handsome prince, just like me.

I am sorry I was never there for you. You might hate me, and that’s understandable. But please take care of your mothers and everyone you love. I will be—]

The footage ended abruptly as everyone was left curious as to what Rudy was about to say.
