Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 1032  Memory Sequence Activated

"Bye," Alice waved back.

Janet turned to Rudy, but he only nodded in response. She shot a quick glance at Alice and gulped down, seemingly thinking of doing something. She seemed nervous, or rather conflicted, about what she was about to do next.

Janet took a deep breath and pulled Rudy close to him, then she kissed him on the cheek and ran away without looking at either of them.

Rudy stood still with a composed look on his face, but he sighed soon after, knowing what was coming next.

Janet had tossed Rudy into a battlefield with Alice and ran away.

In a slow motion, she glanced at Alice to see her reaction, and much to his surprise, she didn\'t seem bothered after seeing her classmate and friend kiss her childhood friend, who was also her crush.

"Shall we go?" she asked Rudy with a smile on her face.

"..." Rudy nodded, and they began walking.

\'What the hell? It would have been better if she had gotten angry or something.\' Rudy was confused, even scared of the situation.

After a five-minute walk, they reached Alice\'s house.

"Thanks for today. I had a lot of fun."

"I had fun too. We can go again next weekend if you want." Rudy opened the gate for Alice. "Or we can go to some other place. The choice is up to you." "We will see."

"Yeah…" Rudy\'s gaze fell on the garage. "Is George home yet?"

"It\'s the weekend so he will come home late or even in the morning," Alice replied in a sober tone.

"Umm… if it\'s alright with you, you can come to my house, you know? It\'s been ages since you had a sleepover at my place."

"I… have to do homework…"

"You can take the books with you. We can do homework together like old times."

Alice\'s face flushed after hearing that.

"What do you say?" Rudy asked again.

"I don\'t know… what if dad comes home early and doesn\'t find me here? I have to be here…" she muttered nervously.

"Well, if that\'s the issue…" Rudy took out his phone from his pocket and said, "I can talk to George and let him know that you are staying the night at my house."

"No!" Alice snatched the phone from Rudy\'s hand and said, "What if he is in a meeting or in the middle of something important?"

Rudy raised his brows after seeing Alice react like that. He placed his hands on Alice\'s shoulders and said, "So what? The call wouldn\'t even last over five seconds."

"..." Alice didn\'t say a word and simply stood there with her gaze down.

"Alright. I will text him instead," he said calmly.

"...."

He placed his hand on Alice\'s chin and raised her head up. Then, he looked into her eyes with a gentle smile before continuing, "He would also check the text when he is free."

"...."

However, Rudy got no response from Alice.

"Is everything okay?" he asked with a frustrated look on his face.

\'I want to go with you.\' Rudy heard a voice.

He was certain that it was Alice\'s voice, but he didn\'t see her lips move. \'There is no point thinking about it. It is obviously one of my powers. I can read thoughts, but I don\'t know how. What\'s different?\'

Rudy looked at his hands touching Alice.

\'Perhaps a direct contact somehow activates telepathy that allows me to read thoughts of the people?\'

Rudy figured out the basics of his power in less than a minute.

\'This is a perfect time. There is something Alice isn\'t telling me. I somehow have to make her think about it so I can know what\'s troubling her.\'

"What\'s wrong?" he asked calmly.

"I think… you should go."

\'Please don\'t go.\'

"Is there something you want to tell me?"

"No, I am just tired," Alice replied. But in her thoughts, \'There\'s so many things I want to tell you.\'

Rudy grew impatient, not because Alice wasn\'t being honest with herself, but because of the reason she was acting like that. What could have caused her to be this way?\'

In the midst of frustration, Rudy felt a sudden surge of energy in his body. He could feel his soul being pulled out of his body. Unknowingly, he pulled Alice close to his face and kissed her on the lips.

Rudy knew what he was doing, and he had full control over his body. But watching his beloved Alice quivering in his arms made him kiss her to comfort her.

The kiss lasted a few seconds, but that was enough to calm Alice down.

Alice looked into Rudy\'s eyes and gulped down. Her hands moved and wrapped around Rudy\'s neck. Then she pulled him close and kissed him on the lips.

However, this kiss was different from Rudy\'s kiss. Alice had inserted her tongue inside Rudy\'s mouth and kissed him passionately.

At that moment, Rudy heard a voice in his head. No, it wasn\'t Alice\'s voice, but something different.

Rudy\'s brain was flooded with the memories that seemed foreign to him, but soon he realized it was his own memories.

He was bewildered, even conflicted. He had so many questions. But when he looked at Alice, he put everything aside and cupped her head in his hands.

"I love you…." said Alice with tears in her eyes.

"I love you too, Alice." Rudy kissed her once again and hugged her tightly.

\'What\'s all these memories? They aren\'t of the past Worldline… but a different one. I heard the voice early that said something about memory. Branch Alice… What does that mean?\' Rudy wondered.

\'Maybe all the memories that I had of Alice? It said 20% extracted and 17% loaded. But only 12% was synchronized. Do I have to do something to unlock the rest of the memories?\'

\'I unlocked the memories of my time with Alice. How we confessed our love to each other in the park. How we kissed each other and started dating. I know I am missing something, but… what?\'
