Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Who would have thought that Rudy would propose to Lilim in such a way? When he asked Lilim to marry him, Maria and Lu Bela were more shocked than Lilim herself.

It wasn't as though Lilim wasn't shocked, but when Rudy got on his knees and held Lilim's hands, she expected something like that to happen. But Lu Bela and Maria were caught completely off guard.

Lilim covered her mouth with her hand and held tears in her eyes. She had become so happy that she lost control over her human appearance. Horns sprouted from her head, and she changed to her demon form.

Rudy looked into Lilim's eyes and smiled slightly as he waited for Lilim's answer. He felt nervous even though their relationship was just like any other harem member.

Sure, their relationship had started on a different note than others. But it didn't take long for it to turn into a normal relationship. Rudy and Lilim had started an intimate relationship as 'friends with benefits', but it slowly changed into something else.

Lilim nodded without saying a word and moved her ring finger up so Rudy could put the ring on it. Rudy smiled slightly and placed the ring on Lilim's finger.

"I am relieved I didn't get rejected," Rudy chuckled softly.

"I would never do that."

Lilim jumped on Rudy and hugged him tightly, squeezing his back and pressing his body against her.

"I love you, Daddy~!"

"This is the first time you ever confessed your love to me. And I think it's about time you stop calling me daddy. We now have a different relationship," he responded calmly.

"Okay, daddy~"

SIGH!

Rudy let out a chuckle and thought, 'It's going to take a while to get her to stop calling me that.'

"Let's stop getting all chummy, or Maria will push us into the sea." Rudy tapped on Lilim's back and whispered in her ears.

Lilim let go of Rudy and sat on her seat while looking at Maria, who was staring at them.

Lu Bela shot a glance at Rudy and asked, "Is that why you were in such a hurry to watch the sunrise?"

"Well… I had different plans to propose to her, but when you mentioned watching the sunrise, I improvised my plan."

"I see."

Rudy looked up at the rising sun and let out a soft sigh.

"My initial plan was to propose Angelica and Lilim today, but when Alice said she wanted to come to the auction too, I had decided that I would prose all three of them. However, Angelica wasn't interested in coming, and Alice left after the auction.

Oh well… I will propose to them some other time. I am sure I will get plenty of more opportunities. If not… I can just create some…"

The scenery of the sun rising and the surrounding was as beautiful as before, but the color of the sky was slowly changing as the sun rose.

Rudy got up from his seat and glanced to his right into the sea.

He looked at the girls and said, "I will be back in a few."

"Hmm," Maria nodded.

After saying that, Rudy teleported somewhere.

Lilim looked at the ring on her finger and caressed it while smiling. She noticed Maria staring at her, so she hid her ring behind her hand and said:

"Don't get angry."

"I am not angry," Maria shook her head. "Why would I get angry? I am just jealous that he proposed you in such a romantic way."

"You also got proposed by him in front of billions in the gambling tournament. Did you forget the clip of him proposing to you was viral for weeks, and it's still trending to this day?"

"I know it, and I watch that clip three times a day, every day."

"Still…" Lilim looked at the scenery and mumbled, "This is beautiful. I have never seen something so beautiful."

"Yeah, agreed." Maria glanced at Lu Bela and said, "Well done, Lula."

"Why would you call me that of all my names~" Lu Bela groaned. "And you should praise Rudy for this scenery, not me."

"What… do you mean?" Maria raised her brow with a confused look on her face. "You planned all this, right?"

"I think using the word 'planned' is wrong here. The sun rose because it was supposed to. The birds flew across the sky because they left their nest in the morning. I just showed you a glimpse of how beautiful this world is."

"Then… Why did you bring Rudy into this topic?"

"I was supposed to show you the sunrise and the birds. The fishes and the sea birds were all Rudy's doing." She pointed her finger at the sky and said, "Even that rainbow is his doing."

"Err… I still don't understand. What do you mean by this is Rudy's doing?"

"He called them here. I bet he wanted to create a perfect scenery to propose to Lilim. She sure is lucky."contemporary romance

"And Angelica and Alice are unlucky that they missed this golden opportunity. I can't wait to see their faces when Lilim shows them the ring and tells them everything," Maria scoffed softly.

"I am not sure if daddy would like that," Lilim muttered.

Maria shrugged her shoulders and said, "I mean… sooner or later, they are going to notice the ring on your ring finger, and they will ask you about it. You would have to tell them everything, eventually, you know?"

"Oh, ho! Princess finally used her brain in something other than gambling," Lu Bela taunted.

"Argh! I can fight with you all day and never get tired, but not right now. Do you know where Rudy has gone? It's rare for him to leave without telling why."

"Maybe he went to fetch Angelica and Alice since he said he wanted to propose to them?" Lilim wondered.

"But they both are most likely sleeping right now, so I don't think he would wake them up, bring them here, and propose to them."

Lu Bela looked at her tablet and uttered, "He is a lot closer than you think."
