Esper Harem in the Apocalypse Chapter 340 Enchanting Dance

Chapter 340 Enchanting Dance
Rias placed the empty glass on the table and said, "I understand why you lusted after Jane. She is undoubtedly hot, and her haughty tongue gets on everyone's nerves. But you even slept with her maid. Like, come on."
"I know I said I made moves on her, but I caught her sucking me off, you know?"
"Then what about great grandmother Nyxia?" she asked with a judging look on her face.
"That's status quo. She hasn't joined my harem yet, and we haven't done anything…. except kissing and…" He averted her gaze and said, "I made her drink my cum."
"I just imagined that…"
"So what are you now, my great grandfather?" Rias jokingly asked.
"Don't mention that," Rudy let out a sigh.
The musicians began to play songs, and this time there were singers too. The chords and notes were in the rhythm of a soothing melody that was bliss to everyone's ears.
Rudy glanced around and muttered, "Jane is still not here."
"That's nothing unusual. She would always be the last one to join any functions as she gets bored easily. And… also wants to look the most beautiful among all, so she takes her time getting ready."
"A curious question: Do vampires do makeup?"
"No. We don't need such things to damage our skin."
Rudy grabbed Rias' hand and said, "Shall we dance, princess?"
"It would be my honor. But do you know how to dance?" she asked with a grin on her face. "The vampire dance is different from the humans, and the steps are difficult. If you mess up one step, the entire dance would be ruined, and even the other couples who are dancing will be offended."
"Don't underestimate me, princess," he said with a confident look on his face. "I watched them dance for a good five minutes. And I have learned it."
"You can't learn anything by watching, and that's a fact."
"Facts don't apply to someone such as me."
"Oh? Then let's see how you do it."
Rias and Rudy entered the dancing ring.
"As long as you let me take the lead and follow my steps, we should be fine," Rias whispered into his ears.
"I am afraid of you messing up, though."
Rudy and Rias danced and danced while staring into each other's eyes without caring for anything else in the world. They were immersed in dancing and forgot that they were being watched by hundreds of nobles and royals who were looking for a chance to berate them.
They all hoped Rias and Rudy would somehow mess up, but that never happened. Minutes passed by, and they were still dancing, while the others who began dancing before, with, and after them had gotten tired and now watching the others from the sidelines.
Knowingly or unknowingly, they were awed by their dance and couldn't help but admire them.
Jane had also arrived a few minutes ago and had been watching their dance since then.
"He never danced with me in the previous functions…" she muttered with puffed cheeks.
After a few more minutes, the song ended, and so was their dance.
When they stopped and glanced around, they noticed they were the only ones dancing in the ring.
Once their dance was finished and everything went silent, the hall was filled with nothing but the applause of their dance.
Rudy shrugged his shoulders and kissed Rias on the lips in front of everyone.
"See? I defy everything."
Rias glanced around from the corner of her eyes and spotted Jane standing among the crowd.
"Aha~ I am so tired. I wonder if someone can dance with him in my stead, so he doesn't feel lonely~"
"...."
Rias walked and stood beside Jane but didn't talk to her or even look at her.
A few seconds later, another set of musicians appeared on the stage and began playing a new song.
The pairs entered the ring and started dancing while Rudy stood in the middle while looking at Jane.
'What should I do? Should I go? I want to dance with him so badly, but what if Rias finds it suspicious? She is already angry at me, and I don't want to make her more angry.
But hey! This is a dance, and we can exchange partners. Anyone can dance with anyone as long as they both are okay with it.'
Jane gathered her courage and stepped into the dance ring.
'Here I go!'
She walked to Rudy and began dancing with her.
Rias couldn't hide her smile after watching Jane and Rudy dance.
'I thought I would get agitated, but I feel happy instead. I guess a harem is not a bad thing, as they say.'
After dancing for a few minutes, the tunes and the song slowed down. Rudy intended to dance with Jane until the song ended, but his attention was diverted by something.
His ears twitched as the surrounding sounds of the music became dull, and he focused on something else.
He glanced around in confusion, but he couldn't see or find anything unordinary.
"What's wrong?" Jane asked.
"I don't know. My ears… my senses are catching something…"
Jane also glanced around and said, "Are you sure? Maybe it's just because of the song?"
"I don't know."
"Do you want to go out and get some fresh air?" she asked with a concerned look on her face.
"Yeah, I will do that. You spend time with Rias, okay?"
Jane nodded in response, and they both walked out of the ring. Rudy walked out of the hall while Jane stood beside Rias.
"Where is he going?" Rias asked Jane.
"Just go get some fresh air."
Rudy rushed to the nearest balcony, not to have a breather but because his tingling sense became stronger as soon as he left the hall room.
He flew and followed his senses. After flying for a few minutes, he reached the nearest border of the kingdom and spotted an enormous-sized monster approaching the palace.
"What in the batshit is that?"
