Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 372 Good Old Memories

”What did Elise wish for in the note?” Reina asked curiously.

”I donʼt know… we kept it a secret from each other. And…” he chuckled with a distant look on his face and said, ”I wanted to know that so badly. I even hoped that the ten years would pass by in a blink, but then again, I wanted to live each and every moment with Elise and enjoy it.”

Reina smiled with Rudy and looked at the sunset.

The sun had painted the sky orange with a pink-purplish shade, which reflected on the seaʼs surface, making it look like a mirror copy. The waves of the sea had also calmed down, so there was no movement.

The birds were chirping in the distance, and all the sounds slowly faded away. The sun looked like it was about to submerge into the sea, but of course, that wasnʼt the case.

At that moment, Reina realized why it was Rudy and Eliseʼs favorite spot. She wasnʼt sure if that spot was the best to see the sunset or if Elise simply liked to sit there. Regardless, the feeling Reina was experiencing made her understand how much Rudy loved Elise.

Rudy moved his hand forward to the sea and lowered his gaze before saying, ”Right now, when I look at and recall those days, I feel like they were the best days of my life. Everything was perfect, not in a worldly way, but I was satisfied. I had everything, and I didnʼt wish for more.

However, a few years from now, we would look back and remember these days and think the same thing and say the same thing. It doesnʼt really matter. Every moment of our life is precious and memorable, and nothing can replace it.

The happy moments, the sad moments, the mixed moments… everything… makes us alive. We can call ourselves lively. Not many get to experience life the way we do.

I suffered a hell lot of pain in my past life after getting into an accident. I was… devastated. My life was about to be complete. I was going to achieve everything I ever wanted, but… fate had different plans for me.

ʼWhy me?ʼ I had asked myself that question countless times when I was in the hospital. Lying helpless and hopeless on the bed and watching your loved ones cry in front of you. I swore to wipe their tears, but I became the source of them.

Ultimately, after suffering and cursing my luck numberless times, I died. And came into this world. If all my suffering was a redemption so I could have this life, then I would say it was worth it.

But was it? I am doing nothing but running away from the truth. Nothing will ever be the same again. I am not the same.”

Rudyʼs voice became calmer and calmer as he spoke, and it eventually sounded lifeless.

Reina gathered enough courage and took a deep breath before saying, ”You will meet her again soon.”

”Yeah...” he muttered.

”Even if she wonʼt remember, you can just use that power to share your memories with her.”

”Hmm.”

”I donʼt know how to say this but...” Reina scratched her cheek and grinned nervously before saying, ”You are Rudy, and thatʼs all that matters. You might have carried your memories from your previous life, but you still have this life.”

”Yeah. You are right. There wonʼt be a third time.” As soon as Rudy finished saying that, a big wave suddenly hit them, but Rudy was able to stop it.

Reina had closed her eyes and prepared herself for a splash that never happened. When she opened her eyes, she saw a black aurora emitting from Rudyʼs body that seemed alive and malicious, as if it was going to devour everything.

”Rudy?” She touched Rudy, and the aura disappeared. ”No matter what choice you make, I will always support you. And I know the other girls will too.”

Rudy smiled at her and said, ”I know. And sorry for making all this dramatic. I didnʼt plan to do that. I genuinely wanted to show this place to you, but it ended up jogging my old memories.”

”Itʼs okay.” Reina hugged Rudy and rubbed his back as she said, ”You are a human too. You have heart. You might never feel physical pain, but you are hurt emotionally. You are only a teenager, and you donʼt deserve the pain you are going through. I can lend you my shoulders any time if you want to cry.”

”I can endure.”

”Sometimes, itʼs okay to cry. It takes out all the negative emotions from you and makes you refreshed. I do that a lot… well, I used to until I met you.”

”After sharing everything with you, I feel a little good. Thank you for listening to me. I still donʼt know if I will be able to hold my emotions when I see Elise, but I will try my best. You girls are my courage and strength; my everything.”

Reina kissed Rudy on the lips and uttered in a low voice: ”Same. I donʼt know where I would have been if I hadnʼt met you at the right place at the right time. Meeting you was the best thing of my life.”

Rudy kissed Reina, and she kissed him back. They made out for a few minutes before the mood heated, and they began touching each otherʼs private parts.

Reina looked into Rudyʼs eyes with a seductive smile on her face and got on her knees.

She began unzipping Rudyʼs pants, but his ears twitched as they caught the sound of footsteps from somewhere.

”Hey. Not here. Someone is coming our way.”

Rudy grabbed Reina and teleported to a familiar park where he had planned to go from the start.

”Isnʼt this park closed for maintenance after the apocalypse and the pandemic?” Reina asked with a knowing look on her face.

”Yeah. Come with me. I want to show you something.” Rudy grabbed Reinaʼs hand and uttered, ”There is this statue here that you might like.”
