Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 239 Blonde-Haired Student

'I should have expected something like this. This happens everywhere, no matter where you go. A new student or a transfer student would be the first target of bullying as they don't have friends. But why is this dude asking as if he doesn't know me?'

'Surely, he would have seen me last night, right? But let's say he couldn't see me. He still would have seen me fighting in the arena. Actually, fuck that. Shouldn't he realize I am a human by getting near me?'

Rudy could sense anyone's presence once they were close enough. He assumed if a human was sitting in a room filled with vampires, one would easily be able to recognize him by his smell or appearance.

However, he concluded that as the vampires have never actually met a human, they wouldn't know how they look or smell precisely. Not to mention, Rudy smelled a lot like Jane as he had spent the night together with her. Jane's odor had dominated Rudy's human smell.

Without caring for a single thing, Rudy smugly raised his head in an arrogant manner and uttered, "Yes. I am the human who trashed your strongest champion."

The blonde-haired kept glaring at Rudy, but his glare suddenly vanished, and the expression on his face became resolute.

"I can't believe it!" he reached his hand to Rudy and said, "Can I shake hands with you?!"

"...." Rudy had never been so confused before. He reluctantly shook hands with the blonde-haired guy who wasn't letting it go.

'What the fuck? I was hoping for a classroom fight, but…' Rudy suddenly felt guilty for judging the guy by his hair and behavior. But it wasn't entirely his fault as the blonde-haired acted as though he was going to pick up a fight.

"My name is Tiren! Nice to meet you!" he said while shaking Rudy's hand like crazy.

"Hello…" Rudy turned to Jane with a confused look on his face, only to see Jane staring at him in disbelief.

'Okay. I am getting more and more confused. Let's solve this.'

Rudy pulled his hand from Tiren's grip and asked, "Uhh.. why are you here?"

"I am the class representative. I couldn't make it to the palace last night as I was busy studying for the exams. But I heard from my friends that a human crashed into the party and challenged the great Vampire Monarch for a fight. That's crazy, man!"

'This dude is acting so friendly. What the fuck?! He is honestly creeping me out.'

"Nice to meet you…" Rudy greeted back.

"How did you manage to enter this world?" he asked curiously.

Rudy pointed his gaze at Jane and said, "This beautiful princess helped me."

"So it's really true that Princess Rias had a human lover? Are you her lover?!"

"Yes. I am here to take them back with me."

"That's so cool, man! Is it also true that you defeated Victus even when he was in his 'super form'?"

The resolute expression on Tiren's face didn't change throughout the conversation.

'What the fuck is super form? I am not trying to brag about my powers, but he was earlier to defeat Jane. Not to mention, Jane was weak when I fought her.'

Jane had been in the human world for the past 15 days, and she had never drank a single drop of blood. Not to mention, her powers were deficient because she had no source to harness her powers.

Naturally, the vampires were supposed to be stronger in their own world. So Rudy knew that Jane was hard to defeat in the vampire world.

"Yes, I did," Rudy replied with a nod.

"I have read stories about humans, and they are on the last spot in the food chain. So how are you so strong? Are the stories false? Or are all humans as strong as you?"

Rudy didn't know much about Tiren, but he was convinced that the blonde-haired was a big fan of humans.

'Well, I am happy that he is a friendly guy, but I would rather not want a male flaunting over me…' Rudy uttered inwardly.

"No, only I have such powers. The books didn't lie," Rudy replied with an awkward smile.

'I hate to admit it, but the book he is talking about is telling the truth. Humans should be the lowest, considering how powerful the other races are. If a human fought a vampire, they would die within a minute.'

"Oh?! So are you the human king? The strongest human?!"

"I am not!" Rudy got up from the seat and said, "I just remembered I have to do something."

He grabbed Jane's hand and got out of the classroom. But he let go of Jane's hand and walked in front of her.

"Heh!" Jane snickered.

Rudy stopped on his track and turned around with an annoyed look on his face.

"What are you smirking for?" he asked.

"It was my first time seeing you getting flustered. And it was much better than when I saw that in your memories," she teased with a grin on her face.

"I wasn't flustered. I just got annoyed by him." Rudy shrugged his shoulders and said, "And if you don't stop grinning, Mister Dick will stop visiting you."

Jane immediately stopped grinning and glared at Rudy with puffed cheeks.

"Heh!" Rudy smirked and uttered, "That's what you get for making fun of me."

Jane squinted her eyes and said, "What do you take me for? Do you think I can't live without Mister Dick? I have been living fine without it all these years, and I am sure I can live the same way even now."

"Oh? That's a very bold statement, Princess. I don't think you can live by it."

Jane haughtily flicked her silver hair and walked past Rudy after saying, "We will see."

"..." Rudy shook his head in disbelief, knowing well that Jane would regret saying that.

Rudy sighed and followed Jane to the grandmaster's office.
