Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

"We are almost there," Kim informed everyone.

"Please tell me it's not a Colosseum. I am tired of seeing them everywhere."

"No, it's not. Or you may think it's a mixture of all kinds. You will know when you see it. But may I ask where else have you seen Colosseum?"

"In the vampire world and at the gambling tournament. Although there were sections and stages there, it was still inside the Colosseum."

"And where else?"

"Just the two."

"So why are you tired of seeing them? No offense, but sometimes you are a dramatic Rudy Ross."

"..."

"I agree," Rias nodded.

"He is like that sometimes," Maria muttered.

"I haven't known him for that long, but I also think the same," Ruby remarked.

"Couldn't agree more," Jane sighed.

"..."

Rudy couldn't believe his girls had turned against him.

Alice, who was sitting beside him, held his hand in her hands and smiled gently before saying, "I don't think you are dramatic."

"Thank you, Alice." Rudy smiled at her and said, "No one knows me better than you."

He glanced at the other girls with a judging glare and continued, "Only you know my true self."

"See? This is what we were talking about," Rias remarked. "You are currently being dramatic. And Alice doesn't think so because she is used to it."

"We are here."

Kim drove the car through a gate and entered a building.

Rudy assumed the car was supposed to be parked there, but the car stopped at the elevator instead. It carried the car to the highest floor and stopped.

"Are we there yet?" Ruby asked.

"No. We have reached, but there is no need to get out of the car."

Kim drove the car to the end of the building and stopped.

"Uhm… What exactly is this place?" Maria asked.

She glanced outside the window but couldn't see anything. And the lights were coming from a few kilometers away.

"Be patient, Princess Ross."

"I have given away that name. Please call me by my name, Kim."

"Understood."

Kim pressed a few switches on the car, and a screen appeared in front of the steering. She added specific numbers inside, and the lights to the next building lit up.

The building shook a little, and a bridge was made between the two buildings. Then, Kim clicked on the rest of the list, and all the buildings in the area lit up as the bridge connected with each other.

It seemed like a flyover with stops at every building.

"Whoa! Is that bridge safe? What if it breaks? Why all these cool tricks anyway? Can't we just fly our way there?" Rias asked with a curious and anxious look on her face.

"There is no need to worry about the bridge. Even if something happens, I am sure Rudy Ross can save you all. And please refrain from using your powers here. The entire island has high-definition cameras installed, and you wouldn't want to be caught using your powers.

Master had reminded me three times to inform you that none of you should use your powers under any circumstances. There are a few guests who are the same as you. And Rudy Ross, you have brought them with you, so you would have to bear responsibility if they break the rules or end up doing something that they shouldn't."

"I don't think Lu Bela has enough courage to say that to my face, and that's why she asked you to inform me. Nor do I think she can punish the girls or me if they break the rules," Rudy asserted in a calm yet serious tone.

"Certainly, but that doesn't mean you are free to do whatever you want. Master respects and acknowledges you. She trusts you. Please don't let her down."

"Relax, girl. I will keep the girls disciplined. And if they do something, I will be the one punishing them."

The girls gave him a weird look after hearing that.

"We are not little girls. We have manners, and we know how to act in grand functions like these. It's not our first time. Maria and I have been to many such occasions and auctions," Ruby stated.

"Rias and I have, too," Jane quipped.

"I haven't been to such events, but I will be careful," Alice added.

"Let's see if you stay true to your words. Don't embarrass me in front of the world."

After a few minutes, they eventually reached the end of the bridge and waited for something to happen.

"This is where you are supposed to get off," Kim informed.

"Oh…" everyone said in unison.

They got out of the car and fixed their clothes.

Two guards appeared from the side of the bridge and stopped in front of them. Both guards had a gun in their hand, and it was evident at first glance that they were the highest rank Underblades.

"They will lead the way," Kim said.

"What about you?" Rudy asked her.

"I am Master's assistant, not yours."

"Ouch. I was just asking since you accompanied us all the way here."

"I didn't mean to come out rude."

"Well, meet you at the auction, I guess."

The gang followed the two guards, who took them into the elevator.

One guard looked at the screen pad on her wrist and said, "Rudy Ross, Alice Shen, Rias Orion Heart."

Rudy couldn't help but say. "Present."

The other guard did the same and called, "Ruby Ross, Jane Orion Heart, Maria Ross."

"Present!" Jane said excitedly, thinking she was supposed to do that since Rudy did.

"Pft!" Rudy snickered a little and covered his mouth with his hand.

"Why are you calling our names, though?" Rias asked the guard.

"The two will be given a separate room."

"Room? For what?"

"You will see."

The elevator stopped, and one guard got out.

"Rudy Ross, Alice Shen, Rias Alucard, follow me."

"Wait, where will the rest go?" Rudy asked.

"Their room is on the floor below."

"Can't you arrange something and make our rooms at least next to each other?"

"Everything is already set. We can't change it at the last minute."

"Well, this island and everything on it belongs to me, so I can have any room I want," Ruby asserted.

Rudy shot a soft glare at Ruby and said, "What did I say about minding your manners?"
