Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 319 Blood Moon Forest

Rudy gazed at the colossal-sized blood moon tree he had just created and smiled. For some reason, he genuinely felt happy from the bottom of his heart. It was the kind of happiness one would get when they least expect it. The satisfaction from that happiness was indescribable by the words.

"Now… time to make more blood moon trees. If I can make one, I can make hundreds."

Rudy created hundreds of blood moon tree orbs and spread them across the garden and even outside it. He used telekinesis to maintain a certain distance between each tree, from what he had learned about the plants and trees in the school.

But Rudy was sure that those rules wouldn't be applicable here as the primary sources for the plant to grow, such as sunlight and water, weren't needed.

Since there was no sun, there was no evaporation. There were clouds, but they weren't filled with water. The vampire world never had rainfall ever since it was created as they didn't need it.

The source of everything, or rather their origin in the vampire world, was a mystery. The rivers and seas were automatically filled with water every year despite them being used in abundance. The trees never grew old or died even in harsh conditions.

Such was the grace and the blessing of a magical world that one would call it a fantasy.

After burying the orbs into the ground, Rudy placed his hand on the ground and released the power there instead of releasing them on each and every orb. That spread the power evenly to the entire surface, and the blood moon trees began to emerge from the ground.

Sure, Rudy had only absorbed a limited power from the blood moon tree, which obviously wouldn't be sufficient to grow a tree larger than that. However, Rudy's body had the power of super regeneration.

When Rudy absorbed the essence from the tree, it became a part of his body, and his super regeneration ability made it limitless. Now, Rudy could grow an infinite amount of blood moon trees if he wanted.

Rudy stopped releasing the power in the ground when the tree grew large enough to produce the blood moon fruits.

The place that was once a garden of the blood moon tree had now become a forest.

SIGH!

"That was so exhausting~ I will take a few fruits as my payment~" Rudy plucked a few fruits and walked out of place through the gate this time.

The guards bowed down to him as he passed through them. When Rudy glanced at them from the corner of his eyes while taking bites from the fruit, some of them were dumbfounded by what they had just witnessed, while the rest were petrified to their bones.

Rudy jumped in the air and flew aimlessly while eating the fruit. He stopped to have to look at the blood moon forest from a distance, and it looked better than he had expected.

Since it was night and the moon shined more brightly, the red moon's light that fell on the blood moon trees illuminated the blood moon fruits. They looked like tiny red moons hanging on the tree.

"Now that this is taken care of… let's visit Rias…"

Rudy teleported outside the chamber of the valley and stood in front of the hidden mountain door.

"I don't think it would open by knocking, so I will have to open it the way Jane did by using blood magic." Rudy placed his hand on the wall and muttered, "Now that I think of it, Veseir wanted to use Rias as a hostage. Does that mean he knew how to open the door?

He probably didn't since Nyxia explained to me a few things about the vampires and their relation with the blood."

The blood magic seal was casted on the wall, and only those whose blood was selected as a key to unsealing it could open the door. And there was no way Virgil would have allowed Vesier to even come near the chamber of the valley.

Rudy made a cut on his finger and spread the droplets across the wall. He muttered what Jane had muttered when she opened the door and waited for it to open. But much to his surprise, the door didn't open.

'I kind of hoped that I would be able to bypass this using my powers, but it was worth a try.'

He hummed and wondered, "Should I return to the palace and bring someone with me? Jane is busy with that girl, and Virgil should be sleeping or something. Nyxia can help me, but I don't know her whereabouts. I can try using my 'find my prey' ability to search for Nyxia, but I think that would be useless. I don't know the locations of this world, so even if I find Nyxia, I wouldn't know where she is.'

SIGH!

"Maybe I should break the wall? But there are chances it could trigger some traps." Rudy squinted his eyes and muttered, "I don't think teleportation would work, but let's try it."

Rudy wished to teleport inside the chamber, and he got there instantly.

"..." He facepalmed himself and thought, 'Talk about anticlimactic.'

He looked at Rias sleeping on the bed and smiled gently at her.

'It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her a sleeping beauty…' he chuckled softly.

He walked to the bed and moved his hand to feel her cheeks, but suddenly, magical chains and shackles were wrapped around him.

The blood moon fruits fell from his hand as he lost his grip on them. His life force was sucked into the chains and shackles, which made him weak, or that was supposed to happen, but Rudy shrugged his hands and broke the chains and shackles into small pieces.

He then caught the blood moon fruits using telekinesis and scanned the dark room with his eyes.

He spotted someone hiding in the corner of the room and muttered, "You are…"
