Chapter 1011 Awakening Powers, Yet Again
Rebecca couldn"t resist a mischievous grin as she playfully teased Jessica, "You used to call Rudy "Daddy" when you were a kid, and now you want to be romantically involved with him? That"s quite the transformation."
Jessica, rolling her eyes, defended herself with a laugh, "Oh, come on, Becca. I"m older than Rudy, and it"s not like I"m robbing the cradle. I just want him to love me romantically. But if that doesn"t happen, no big deal. I won"t force anything on him."
Rebecca, still in a teasing mood, pondered for a moment and then pointed out, "Well, you know, Rudy already has a girlfriend. He"s not exactly on the market for a new relationship."
Jessica chuckled, nonchalantly shrugging her shoulders, "Oh, please. Rudy"s going to have a harem. That"s not an issue."
Rebecca raised an eyebrow, considering Jessica"s carefree att.i.tude. "Are you really okay with that? Rudy having a harem?"
Jessica shrugged nonchalantly, "What can I do if he wants a harem? Instead of opposing it, I could support him and maybe even join his harem."
Rebecca sighed, muttering to herself, "I can"t stop either of you, can I?" Looking at Jessica, she warned, "Just don"t go overboard with Rudy before he turns 18. We don"t want any unnecessary complications."
Jessica winked, "No promises, Becca. Life"s too short for boundaries."
Rebecca folded her arms, her expression stern. "That was not a request, but a warning!"
Jessica leaned back on Rudy"s bed, a mischievous glint in her eyes. "Relax. Even if something happens, I"ll let you know. Don"t worry. Until then, I"ll pamper my nephew so he can pamper me afterward." She licked her lips playfully.
Rebecca shook her head in disbelief, muttering, "You"ve watched too much p.o.r.n. It"s corrupted you."
"Hentais, not p.o.r.n," Jessica corrected with a sly grin.
"Whatever. It"s the same thing. Now, come help me with breakfast." Rebecca grabbed Jessica"s arm, pulling her out of Rudy"s room.
"Aw, come on! Let me sleep a bit more."
As Jessica and Rebecca descended the stairs, they heard the door open, and Rudy walked in.
Rebecca, eyeing him with suspicion, asked, "Where did you go?"
Rudy, a casual smile on his face, replied, "Just went for a quick jog."
Rebecca, bustling around the kitchen, called out to Rudy, "It"s going to take us a while to prepare breakfast. Why don"t you take a bath until then?"
Rudy agreed with a nod and headed to his room to retrieve his school uniform. As he descended the stairs, ready to make his way to the bathroom, Jessica, with a mischievous grin, asked, "Interested in a bath together, Rudy?"
Caught off guard, he hesitated, unsure how to respond. Before he could say anything, Rebecca intervened, calling Jessica"s name with a stern glare, effectively shutting down any further suggestions.
Rudy, feeling a bit awkward, proceeded to the bathroom. The warm water in the bathtub offered a welcome escape, and he closed his eyes, allowing the relaxation to wash over him.
Rudy looked at his hands and muttered, "So I am one of those people who entered the tower? No… why do I think that"s not the case? I can somehow do anything I want, anything I can think of.."
"I don"t want to admit it, but when I was jogging, my mind was occupied with that place where I had that vision of the tunnel… and the next moment, I was there. And then when I saw that figure heading into the woods, I wanted to run away from there, but deep down… I was curious.
But why didn"t it work when I was wishing to get out of there? Perhaps it requires me to do something to trigger that teleportation process?"
Rudy was slowly learning about his powers.
"When I decided to fight the monsters and ran towards them, I wished I could run fast and the next moment, I achieved super speed. When I swung my fist to punch them, I wished I could obliterate them in one punch and that"s exactly what happened.
Could it be that my power is whatever I want to do? I teleported back to the house upon my wish. Hmm~" Rudy hummed in amus.e.m.e.nt and pondered a way to test his theory.
He raised his hand to his eye level and muttered, "Let"s see."
The next moment, fire manifested in his palm.
"Holy s.h.i.t! It worked! Let me try water."
Water came out of Rudy"s finger, as if there was a tap. Rudy then tried to use wind and it felt as if someone had turned on the fan or left the window open.
"What about lightning?" Rudy wondered. "But… using lightning when I was surrounded by the water… That"s… risky. But… I am curious…"
In the end, curiosity got the best of him and he conjured lightning in his hands, but the next second, Rudy was electrocuted by his own lightning, leaving him severely injured and bleeding in the bathtub.
The bathtub was filled red with Rudy"s blood and the room smelled like burnt flesh.
"f.u.c.k me… why am I so stupid…?"
Immediately, Rudy"s wounds began to heal and the next second, his body was completely healed, as if nothing had happened. However, the bathtub was still red and the room smelled the same.
"Looks like… I have the power of regeneration too…? Did it happen automatically, or my thoughts subconsciously triggered this? Seriously, this power is very dangerous. What if I end up doing something I don"t want to… just because I am curious about it? I have got to be careful and control my d.a.m.n thoughts."
Rudy emptied the bathtub and washed it multiple times to take out the crimson from the room. But he didn"t know what to do about the smell of the burnt flesh.
"How am I supposed to produce a fragrance?"
While glancing around the bathroom, Rudy"s gaze fell on a perfume, so he grabbed it and sprayed it all around the room until the fragrance of the perfume had consumed the smell of the burnt flesh.
He used perfume as an air freshener.
After wearing his clothes, he joined Jessica and Rebecca for breakfast and got ready for school. He had no idea he was going to meet his supposed girlfriend in the school.
