Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 600 Rudy Meets Asura

While finding the energy matter, Rudy realized one thing.

ʼIf the energy could change its shape, then would it not also be able to change its properties?ʼ

Rudy could do that at his will, so even if the energy matter he was chasing didnʼt disappear, it would still be somewhere near.

ʼThe properties should change depending on the intensity and frequencies of the energy. I am not a professional in this matter— actually, I donʼt know anything about all this stuff, but… I know this for some reason.

As if thatʼs the most obvious thing similar to what people call common sense. Uhh… wait, why am I thinking and talking like this? This place is… affecting my thinking…? Or is this my powerʼs doing?ʼ

”I know you are watching me. Just come out.”

A few seconds later, the energy in the space gathered and formed the shape of a human. Then, it stopped glowing and became a complete human.

He had light grey, somewhat silver-ish colored hair. And his eyes were the same color. According to his physique, he seemed to be in his twenties, and he had perfect body one could only desire.

”I have many names, but they call me Asura. And judging by your powers, I assume you are the protector… Lord of this reality?” Asura asked calmly.

”Reality? You mean this world… or rather universe?”

”No. Reality is… reality.”

”I donʼt understand. And I donʼt care about the introduction. But yes, I am the Lord.”

Rudy and Asura stared at each other as neither of them knew what to do.

”I was right to attack this world, but I didnʼt expect you to react so fast,” Asura uttered. ”I was waiting for this world to be destroyed, and I orbited around it to attract more asteroids, but much to my surprise… all the nearby asteroids were destroyed.

To be honest, I didnʼt know you were the Lord. I expected you were just a… superhero of this world? Anyway, why were you in the human world? Donʼt you have your throne or domain from where you can watch this reality?”

”First of all, stop talking to me in this friendly manner. And how dare you stand in front of me after admitting your crime? You tried to kill billions of people living… oh wait…”

Rudy frowned his face in anger and asked, ”Donʼt tell me you are the so-called god, killing the innocent and calling it a sacrifice or whatnot?”

”Thatʼs precisely me. What of it?” he asked with a confused look on his face.

The expression on Asuraʼs face was so nonchalant and remorseless that Rudy couldnʼt stand it. Rudyʼs power leakage, which was causing him a great deal of pain, increased drastically; it was amplified by his emotions.

Rudyʼs hand exploded, but he still had his hand intact to his body, but it was made from sheer power.

Rudy swung his fist at Asura, yelling, ”You canʼt do anything in my world without my permission!”

? Before Rudyʼs fist could even reach Asura, the raw energy and force generated from his punch had hit him.

First, the skin on Asuraʼs body burned instantly, and then his flesh was ripped from his body. At last, his skeleton couldnʼt stand the heat produced by Rudyʼs punch, and it melted completely whilst burning.

All that and Rudyʼs fist still hadnʼt reached where it would have hit Asura.

The sheer power caused by Rudyʼs simple wing of fist ripped through the space, causing a loud and sharp horn sound as if two things were forcibly being rubbed against each other.

Fortunately, that happened in the upward direction away from the solar system, but it still had left its effect.

Rudy used restoration ability in space, but that didnʼt work.

How could one touch the space, let alone feel it?

”What just… happened…” Rudy muttered with a confused look on his face.

Everything had happened so fast that if Rudy hadnʼt seen it with his own eyes, he would have thought that Asura had disappeared rather than being reduced to atoms.

”It ended already?”

Rudy felt a gushing pain in his hand that one would often feel when their wound was touched. He looked at his hand and saw it was burning, or rather, emitting such strong energy that it was devouring up the space around.

Rudy touched his hand with the other hand and used his restoration ability, but it didnʼt work.

ʼYou can add water to fire, but canʼt add fire to water.ʼ

Rudy was in such a condition.

”Going back on earth is risky. Should I wait here and let it cool down? I wish I had held back a little against that guy. It would have been a good way to pass the time.”

”Oh? Was that all your strength, Lord?” a voice asked.

”...!”

Rudy glanced around and saw Asuraʼs body manifesting out of nowhere in front of Rudy.

”What…?”

”Was that truly to your 100% strength?” Asura asked curiously. ”I expected you to be a little stronger.”

”How are you alive?”

”Did I not mention I am immortal?”

”No.”

”Your fault then. You punched me out of nowhere when I was still introducing myself. I am curious, why would you do that?”

”Anyone would do the same, you asshole! How can you kill innocent kids?!”

”Oh wait… could it be that my people ended up hurting someone close to you? If so, then I apologize. Then again, I donʼt truly feel sorry. Sooner or later, everyone dies one day, so it doesnʼt matter when.”

”...”

”Those kids would grow up one day and become adults. Their innocence would be lost, and they would be corrupted by this forsaken… world. What I did was save them from that.

I preserved their innocence inside me so they could live forever. Now, I would ask you to keep your distance from me. I have to destroy this world before the time ends.”

”Keh!” Rudy placed his hand on his neck as his powers tried to leak from there. His mouth glowed as the light traveled through his eyes and reached his brain.

ʼThis freaking hurts!ʼ
