Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 591 Precious And Delicate Love

”You want to marry me here?”

”You said you could return to 2008 at any moment, but I donʼt want to let you go before we get married. So letʼs get married now,” Elena responded with a shrug.

”But… what about the priest and the ceremony and everything?”

”I donʼt care about all that.”

”You do know that a marriage canʼt be considered valid unless there is a third person— an adult— is present to testify, right? That was the case even in ancient times.”

”Since when did you start caring about all that?”

”I donʼt. I am saying this for you. If I were to disappear, people would think that I ran away and left you alone. Your image in society would be ruined, you know?

We have already invited half of the village to our marriage tomorrow, and… itʼs not going to end well if I disappear.”

Elena squinted her eyes without saying anything and stared at Rudy.

”Fine~!” Rudy groaned and kissed Elena on the lips. ”Letʼs get married in this room. But letʼs first wear our wedding clothes, shall we?”

Rudy only had to wear his suit, so it didnʼt even take him a full minute. But for Elena, there were too many things.

”Need my help?”

”Yes, please.”

Rudy helped Elena wear the wedding dress while she watched everything from the mirror.

After seeing the serious look on Rudyʼs face, Elena chuckled softly and muttered, ”This would be the first time in history where the groom is helping his bride get dressed.”

”Who knows.”

Once Elena was ready, she turned to Rudy and looked into his eyes.

”So… what about the vows?” Elena asked.

”Do we need any? Our love has already crossed many boundaries… wait, that kind of sounded immoral. I didnʼt mean the regular limits, I was talking about space and time.

We are beings from different timelines, yet we fell in love with each other, and now we are getting married. Had I never touched that wallet and been curious about it, I wouldnʼt have time-traveled and met you.

I am delighted from the bottom of my heart that you were with me in this timeline, and you kept me company. I needed a companion and a partner. Let me tell you a few things I have been meaning to say to you.

At first, on our first date, I was going to turn you down and keep my distance from you. But that wasnʼt because I didnʼt find you pretty or anything, I just didnʼt want to have any intimate relationship with anyone, as it was a different timeline.

Then… I guess, deep down, I wanted someone to take care of me. You looked so… so delicate and precious to me on our first date that I thought if I did anything wrong or hurt you in any way, you would break.

Our first date continued, and at the end, we went to the mountain hills. Not going to lie, I had never ever thought of… well, having sex with you on the first date. That was too much, even for me.

Nevertheless, we ended up having sex, and everything changed after that. You became a permanent part of my life. Believe me, if I could time travel at my will, I would gladly stay in this timeline and love you forever.

I…” Rudy took a short pause and continued, ”I have always been bad at expressing my feelings. I was the same in my past life, and that didnʼt change in this life, even after getting my powers.

If I wish to, I could just go to any girl and command her to fall in love with me or sleep with me, but that love and that sex wonʼt be genuine. Therefore, ever since I realized I have commandment power, I have been reluctant, or one could say… hesitant, to confess my love to them.

What if I unconsciously activated my commandment power and my confession to them turned into command? The worst thing is, the girl nor I would ever realize it. And when I think about it… I feel… empty.

Thatʼs why I always wait for the girl to confess their love to me first, and only after that do I express my feelings to them.”

Rudy held Elenaʼs face in his hands and calmly asked, ”I solemnly swear to love you in every timeline. Do you?”

Elena smiled and kissed Rudy on the lips before answering, ”I do.”

They both kissed a few times and hugged each other.

”Rudy…”

”Hmm?”

”I love you.”

”I love you too.”

They both stayed like that for a while until Rudy uttered, ”Copy.”

”What was that?” Elena asked curiously.

”I copied your current form or body.”

”Why? Did you say you would love me in every timeline? Or do you not want to love the 37-year-old me?”

”Thatʼs not the reason. You are beautiful right now… even more in this wedding dress. And once I return to 2008, I will find you. But for me, only a few minutes would have passed, while for you… it would be eighteen years.

You would wait for me for eighteen years and waste your youth devoting your life and love to me. When I think about it… I feel guilty. So I copied your current form, and once I meet you in 2008, I will paste it.”

He explained calmly while hugging her.

”Does that mean… I will become 18 year old again?”

”Yes. Do you hate the idea?”

”No… but…” Elena smiled and said, ”Itʼs nothing. I donʼt hate the idea. But to make me 18 year old again, you will have to find me first.”

”Yeah.”

When they looked at each other after hugging, Elenaʼs eyes widened as the smile on her face vanished.

”You are… bleeding…” she said with a concerned and anxious look on her face.

”...huh?”

Rudy was bleeding from his nose, but his blood wasnʼt red. It was cosmic colored, and it was glowing or, rather, twinkling.
