Esper Harem in the Apocalypse Chapter 9 - Flight

Chapter 9 - Flight

Rudy climbed up the stairs and kept climbing until he reached the platforms of the upper compartments where the slides and the waiter area were awaiting him, to get cleaned. He looked at the entire sight from the top and couldn't help but awe in amazement.

"After looking at this from the top, I realize it's bigger than I expected," Rudy muttered.

It was nighttime, and the swimming park was located near the main highway. It was between the city and the highway, so even the people who wanted to drop by from some rest would be able to come here.

The park also had the facility of lodging and booking rooms to stay for the night, serving as a hotel, but it was closed for now.

Rudy glanced to his right and saw dozens of slides of various types. Some were straight, some were spiral, some needed a tube to go down, while some were water slides.

Unfortunately, there was no electricity on the other side of the park. Hence, no lights were on, and it was completely dark. However, Rudy's superpowers were allowing him to see everything clearly.

"I brought a mop with me, but I don't think I will need it…" Rudy placed the mop on the corner and grabbed the water pipe. Then, he attached it to the valve of the motor and turned it on.

There were dozens of water tanks on the top, so the water came out with the pressure. However, even if there was no pressure, Rudy simply needed a bucket full of water. He could wipe everything clean using his powers.

"Let's start." Rudy sighed and looked to his left. "There are ten more like this."

Rudy began to sprinkle the water everywhere and used telekinesis to get the dirt off the tiles and marbles. He was so immersed in cleaning that he didn't notice the mop he placed on the corner fell to the floor.

Rudy walked all over the compartment and sprinkled water to clean it. He was using his powers, and for that, he needed precise control. He didn't want to do any damage to the tiles and destroy the place.

As he was walking, he tripped on the mop and fell off the compartment.

"...!"

He was falling from the height of 32 meters, which was enough to kill anyone on impact.

'I already died a few hours ago. I am not going to die again!" Rudy knew how it felt to be hopeless. He died alone in the middle of nowhere. He had no one with him in his last moments.

Rudy didn't want to feel the same pain and suffering again. Luckily for him, he now had superpowers, and he could do anything he wanted.

Rudy simply imagined that he wanted an ability to fly, and he stopped falling.

"I… can't believe… it worked…" Rudy could feel his heart beating so loud as though it could pop out of his chest at any time.

However, even if Rudy had fallen and crashed to the ground, nothing would have happened to him. In fact, the ground would have shattered on impact.

But, it was not the time for celebration. Rudy wasn't going to sigh in relief until he reached back to the top. He knew that if he lost his concentration, he would lose control and fall down.

Rudy slowly flew to the top and landed back on the compartment. As soon as he landed, he dropped to his knees and let out a loud grunt.

"I should be a little careful…" Rudy sighed in relief.

After that, Rudy spent 3 hours cleaning the compartments and stairs one by one. He minimized the use of his superpowers because his head had started to hurt. He simply spilled a ton of water on the slides, and they were automatically washed. The dirty water from the compartments, slides, and the stairs, was going into the pools.

However, there was no need to clean the pool again because the pools' sinks were now working.

Rudy was cleaning the last compartment when Reina approached him. She stood by the stairs and watched Rudy. She was carrying a flashlight with her because she couldn't see anything.

"What? Are you here to check whether I am slacking or not?" Rudy scoffed.

"No." Reina shook her head with a grin on her face and said, "I was thinking you must be hungry. So I am here to call you out for dinner. Although it's only cheap noodles…"

'It's better than what I eat every day, though..' Rudy nodded and said, "I will be there in 5 minutes."

"Can I help you out with something? I feel bad for letting you do all the work," Reina insisted with an anxious and concerned look on her face.

"There is no need to feel bad. I am doing my job, and you are paying me for it," Rudy a.s.serted.

"But—"

"Just go down. I will be there in 5 minutes."

"Okay…" Reina left with a disappointed look on her face.

'Dammit. I can't help but keep staring at her, and because of that, I see through her clothes. I need to do something about this ability, or it might—'

"Aaah!" Reina let out a loud scream.

Rudy immediately rushed to the pole and saw Reina falling down.

"Oh s.h.i.+t—!" Without wasting his time, Rudy jumped off the compartment and grabbed falling Reina. He carried her in his arms and landed on the ground.

Fortunately, Reina's eyes were closed due to fear, but there was no fooling Reina. When Reina opened her eyes, she found herself in Rudy's arms.

"How… you were up there… so how did you get…. Here…?"

"..." Rudy sighed with a groan and thought, 'It hasn't even been a day since I got superpowers, and I already exposed my ident.i.ty.'
