Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 181 Rias Meets Rebecca

Rias walked into Rudy's house without any manners and yelled, "I have come!"

Rudy rushed after Rias and pulled her hand to stop her.

"What the fuck are you doing?!" he whispered violently.

"Huh? I am letting your beloved mother know that I am here," Rias responded with an innocent look on her face.

"That's not how you greet someone."

She shrugged her shoulders and said nonchalantly: "I don't really care, you know?"

"So are you saying that you don't care if she likes you or not?"

"..."

"She won't allow me to hang out with you or even talk to you if you don't make a good impression on her," Rudy remarked.

Rias' face turned pale after hearing that. Her facial expression shifted from arrogant to meek, and her lips started trembling.

'Wow. She looks like a different person just by changing her expression…' Rudy thought to himself.

"Rudy? Is that you?" Rebecca asked from the bathroom.

"Yes, mom. And… I have brought the girl I talked to you about this morning…" Rudy responded in a calm voice.

"Oh! I see. So you weren't kidding about that, huh?"

"..."

"...."

Rias and Rudy shot an awkward glance at each other.

"Just give me a minute. I am not wearing clothes right now."

"You don't have to tell me all that!" Rudy shouted, feeling flustered.

"Is she always like this?" Rias whispered to Rudy.

Rudy didn't reply and walked into the house. Rias followed him but stopped in the living room to take a look at the house. While Rudy went to the kitchen to grab a glass of water for Rias.

'It's not as I was expecting, but okay. This place smells of Rudy's scent, and I feel like I can sniff all day and still not get enough of it! I want to pack his smell in a jar and take it home!'

'But wait, why should I take his smell when I can take him?!'

"Here," Rudy interrupted Rias' vile thoughts.

Rias drank the water and sat on the couch in a relaxed manner. However, her sitting position had no decency.

"Pst!" Rudy hissed at her and said, "Sit properly."

A few minutes later, the bathroom door opened, and Rebecca walked into the living room. She was wiping her hair with a towel.

Rudy's heartbeat got louder as Rebeca laid her eyes on Rias.

"..."

"..."

Rias and Rebecca stared at each other for a few seconds but didn't say a word. The silence was so awkward that Rudy had to quip in and start a conversation.

"Mom, this is Rias, my classmate. She is a transfer student who enrolled in my school three months ago," Rudy introduced Rias to Rebecca.

"And Rias, this is my mother— Rebecca. She has raised me all by herself, and she is the best mother in the world," Rudy introduced Rebecca to Rias.

Even after Rudy introduced Rias and Rebecca to each other, they still kept staring at each other without speaking a word.

Rudy couldn't be more anxious, and he didn't know what to do. He didn't want Rebecca not to like Rias, while he didn't want Rias to say something awful to Rebecca that would and could break their friendship.

"Umm… so today at school, there was this—"

"Rudy." Rebecca interrupted Rudy and said, "I forgot we are out of snacks. Can you go buy some from the market real quick?"

"Huh? Didn't you bring a bag full of snacks today in the morning after your shift ended?" Rudy asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Those weren't ours." Rebecca smiled at Rudy and said, "You can tell the cashier to cut the bill from my pay."

"Okay…" Rudy reluctantly got up and left the house in a hurry. He ran as fast as he could because he didn't want to leave Rias and Rebecca alone.

"So…" Rebecca inspected Rias from her head to toe and said, "You are the one who has been trying to seduce my son."

Rias furrowed her brows at Rebecca and squinted her eyes before saying. "And you are the one who is stopping him from getting seduced by me."

Rias and Rebecca glared at each other, and neither of them seemed to back down.

"I have to admit that you are indeed a beautiful girl, but you are nothing compared to me," Rias said to Rebeca in a haughty tone.

"Have I ever seen you before?" Rebecca asked curiously.

"I doubt that. No one in this world can be compared to me and my never-dying beauty."

"You are not as how Rudy described you. He said you were a well-mannered girl. But all I am getting from you is pure arrogance," Rebecca remarked nonchalantly.

"I can say the same to you." Rias shrugged her shoulders and said, "You don't even come close to how Rudy described you."

SIGH!

Rebecca let out a weary sigh and said, "Since this is Rudy's first time bringing a girl, I don't know how to act. Maybe all girls are like your days."

Rebecca grabbed the glass from the table from which Rias had drank the water a while ago and asked, "Do you want to drink something? Although it's not like I have anything else to give you other than water."

"No thanks."

Rebecca went to the kitchen to prepare the plates for the snacks.

Rias bit her lips and said, "How long have you been living in a place like this?"

"Ever since I was born here."

"Did you ever think of doing something else? I am sure you can earn decently if you simply choose a different profession."

"I know what I have to do. You don't know the hardship of being a single mother," Rebecca said while placing the plates on the dining table. "And even if I want to do something else, I can't."

'I have to follow the diary,' she added inwardly.

Rias frowned her face after hearing that and said, "Just admit that you are purposely choosing to give Rudy this kind of life."

"...."

Rias turned to Rebecca and glared at her furiously.

"Give Rudy to me, and I will take care of him better than you ever can," she demanded nonchalantly.
