Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Rudy's power was to create an ability based on logic, principles, foundations, or even a strong belief and faith. He had to convince himself somehow to make the ability work.

However, he had no need to do all that if such ability already existed with someone.

Rudy had to search the entire underworld to look for Rusher and the others, but it was too big and the time was close to none. At first, Rudy flew as high as he could and used his 'all vision' ability to scan the entire underworld at once, but he failed.

When he had used 'all vision' for the first time, he had gone blind instantly. When he used it for the second time in the Ross estate, he was able to use it for one second. But when he used it for the third time to scan the entire underworld, he became blind in three seconds.

To Rudy, that was a development as his eyes were getting used to it. Rudy constantly and passively evolved rapidly ever since he went back in time and came to this world. And so were his powers and mental strength.

After becoming blind, Rudy plucked and got a new pair of eyes. At that time, he looked up at the cloud and remembered how Jane was able to turn into smoke.

Of course, that was a vampiric ability, which only a few high vampires had. But Rudy could create a similar ability with minimal effort.

Rudy already had the ability to change his body, so he simply had to break down his body into small particles. He couldn't turn into the fog as he initially planned, but he separated each and every cell of his body and scattered it.

The wind carried and spread in the entire underworld. That was his first step to achieving Omnipresence; He was present everywhere in the underworld.

However, he still couldn't find Rusher and the others. At that time, Rudy realized that they weren't in the underworld in the first place.

Rudy could use 'find my prey' and teleport small things such as a ball and a letter. Thus, he used that ability and first teleported his vision, voice, hearing, and all the other senses. After that, he slowly teleported his cell to one place and conjured his body.

He was simply buying as much time as he could to complete his manifestation, and he succeeded without a hitch.

All the Under Blades pointed their guns at Rudy and prepared to fire, but the leader raised her hand and stopped them all.

"Let's not waste our ammunition."

Rudy nonchalantly stretched his body in the air as he felt stiff after pulling such a bizarre ability. Now, he no longer needed to be at a place and mark it once to teleport there. He could now teleport anywhere he wanted as long as he could see that place.

However, Rudy had decided not to use that ability unless it was an emergency. That ability was extremely slow and tedious.

"I don't care about a single word you said. I am a selfish asshole who only cares about his loved ones. However, you were right about one thing, my father-in-law is indeed a coward," Rudy stated.

"..."

"But what makes one a man and what makes one a coward? Different people will say different definitions, and all of them might be right. However, for me, only my definition is true.

They would say 'doing something one couldn't do' would make one a man. While that is indeed true, it is not valid. Honestly, anyone can do what someone couldn't do. It's not an achievement.

If someone did something and didn't take any responsibility for their actions, then he is not a man; he is a coward. Rusher got his sister pregnant; that was something no one could do. Did that make him a man? Obviously not.

He didn't have the guts to take responsibility for his actions. Did that make him a coward? Definitely yes."

Rudy was simply buying time by spouting whatever came to his mind. Only half of his body cells had been teleported, and half were still being teleported. He needed his full body to use his powers accordingly.

"Why are you giving me that lecture?" the leader of the Under Blades asked. "I don't need you to teach me what is what and who is who. And you didn't answer my question, Rudy Ross.

Shouldn't you be at the VIP underworld tournament? It already began more than an hour ago. You have so much at stake if you lose. How will you return the money to them?"

Rudy shrugged his hands and asked, "Why do you care so much about me?"

"Oh, don't flatter yourself, My Lord. I am simply doing my job. You see, if you lose, you will have to pay a hundred times the betting amount. And I know you won't be able to pay them.

And if you don't pay them, there will be riots against the Ross Syndicate. Thus, the peace will be disturbed. Hence, my workload will increase. I am just trying to prevent something that can be easily avoided."

"Well, that's none of my concerns," Rudy snickered. "That's your job, so you have to handle it."

"Now, Now, Rudy Ross. Are you sure you want to talk to me with that attitude? I have Maria and your little demon in my custody. My one signal, and they will be killed. I truly don't want to do that; they both are innocent."

"..."

"Oh, that's right!" She snapped her fingers and said, "I have a proposal for you, My Lord. If you leave now and return after winning the tournament, I will give you Maria and Lilim as a reward.

Of course, they will be alive. However, Rusher and the rest will be dead. It's your choice, Rudy Ross. Would you rather save Rusher and let Maria and Lilim die, or save Maria and Lilim after winning the tournament?"
