Rudy couldn't see the future because such an ability had no logic or lore behind it. But he could guess the possible outcomes of a decision or action.
Janet was a yandere, and there was no denying it. She could turn into an extreme psycho or a tamed psycho. Rudy was okay with either version of Janet, but Janet wouldn't have been happy being an extreme psycho.
Rudy wanted to save Janet from herself.
Janet hated herself and her existence ever since she realized how she had been messing up everyone's life from childhood. Rudy wanted to save her, and the only way to do that was to make her love herself.
"I have already offered the best solution to you, which is to meet my harem members," he continued. "You don't have to join my harem today or tomorrow. You can do that whenever you want.
I will wait for you, Janet." Rudy turned to Rize and smiled at her. "Rize, I am sure you had the same questions in your mind, and you weren't sure about joining my harem. But trust me on this one.
You will be happy because I want to make you all happy. I won't be satisfied if you are unhappy and aren't smiling. Just… love me and be happy… and in return… I will give my world to you."
Janet suddenly ran and hugged Rudy from behind.
"Uhh… are you okay?"
"Let me stay like this for a while."
"Okay."
Rudy looked at the sky from the window and muttered, "It's 3:33 PM. Should we go home?"
Alice nodded without saying a word.
"I have to be on stage. And I have my own car, so I can go home later. Also, you don't know where my home is."
"That's why I was offering my help. "Rudy grinned and continued, "So I can know your address and sneak into your bed when you are sleeping."
"I would appreciate it if you could come through the front door, though."
DING~ DONG!
"That's my call~" Rize walked past Rudy while smiling at him.
"Hey, Rudy…"
"Hmm?"
"I… erm… I am ready to meet your… lovers. You can phone call me later. I am free tomorrow."
"Got you."
"Bye. And don't do things you shouldn't do in a classroom."
"Don't worry, I won't leave any trace behind."
Janet squeezed Rudy and asked, "Can I come too?"
"Of course."
"Let's go home, then."
"Sure."
Rudy gestured Alice to come close and hold his hand. But instead, Alice hugged him from the front.
"This is the weirdest sandwich combination."
Rudy teleported in front of Janet's house and said, "We are home."
Janet let go of Rudy and fidgeted.
"Don't use your powers to walk back home. Today was special, but I want us to walk instead of teleporting like this," she uttered in a low voice.
"I second that," Alice nodded.
"Not a problem."
Janet went to her house while Rudy and Alice walked the rest of the way.
"You didn't tell Janet about the other Janet, right?" Alice asked with a knowing look on his face.
Rudy shook his head and said, "I can't tell her that. She had gone through some nasty stuff in the other world. This world's Janet has no reason to see or know that."
"I guess… you have a point."
"I haven't shown anything to Rize either. There is no way I can tell her that she was killed while having sex by a man she didn't want to marry."
"But you told me about the other Alice…"
Rudy held Alice's hand and calmly explained, "It's a different matter. Alice from that world had committed suicide out of depression. She chose to do that. She killed herself. While Rize was killed by someone.
Saving you from the same fate was easy. You will no longer be sad and depressed, nor will you ever think about committing suicide. While I am still in the process of saving Rize.
I am not worried about anything in the least, but I am running out of endurance. I just want to find that son of bitch who Rize married. I will kill him, and then… I will kill Rize's parents."
Rudy's voice showed no emotions.
"Don't you think Rize would be sad and angry if she found out that you killed her parents? No matter how disgusting their actions were, I don't think a child would ever want to see their parents dead, or worse, be killed by the person they love."
"Rize wouldn't find out," Rudy shrugged his shoulders. "Her parents will be eaten by vultures in a desert after starving for a week. Their bodies will never be found."
"I can't believe you just said that."
"You know me better than anyone, Alice. We have known each other since childhood. You know everything about it. You are well aware that I am not a saint."
Alice lowered her gaze as she recalled a certain event from her childhood.
"You are right… but that would make me the same as you…"
"Partners in crime, eh?" he scoffed softly.
After dropping Alice at her home, Rudy teleported to his home. Soon after, Lucy returned from school, and a while later, Rebecca woke up.
However, Rudy wasn't at home.
They called him, but he had left his phone in his room, and it rang when they called him. Angelica and Lilim wanted to come home, so they called him too, their call only to be answered by Rebecca, who told them the situation.
They informed Reina and the vampire gang, who also didn't have any idea about Rudy's whereabouts.
Angelica assumed he must be with Eleanor, so she called Eleanor, but Rudy wasn't there either.
The only person left to contact was Maria, who was out shopping with Ruby. Sadly, when they called her, they learned that Rudy wasn't with them either.
Fortunately, Maria had a faint guess of where Rudy could be.
With Lu Bela.
So she asked Lilim to call Lu Bela, but Rudy wasn't there either.
Hence, they realized that Rudy had gone missing.
