Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

464 Rudy's New Challenge

Rudy called the 6% one by one and gave them the gold worth a hundred times more than their betting amount. He could precisely change the shape and weight in his hand, so he didn't need anyone's help.

Once he was done with them, he looked up at the chopper and said, "Can you make it so that the 6% of them can't bet or invest in me again?"

After talking on the device for a few seconds, one of them said, "It will be done in a few minutes."

Rudy nodded in response and then moved his gaze to the 69% of fans who still remained loyal to him even after what he had done— although most of them were after the challenge rather than Rudy himself.

"Before I state the next challenge, please come forward and take what I owe you."

They came to collect the gold one by one as Rudy called their name in alphabetical order. Hundreds of thousands of them couldn't even fit in one place. However, Rudy's processing was so fast that he was dealing with one person in one second.

Still, it was taking too much time, so he decided to split the line into two and began distributing with two hands. That was also not enough, as Rudy could do it even faster.

The simplest solution for that would be using Maria and Lilim too, but he didn't want any of them to get near the scene as he didn't want to take any risk.

'Assassination attempts can still happen. And they usually happen in a mega event like this where no one can find the culprit, but I can,' Rudy uttered inwardly.

After pondering for a few seconds while distributing the gold, Rudy decided to go all out.

'The citizens of the underworld are already used to advanced technology, so I can use my powers and just call it yet another technology."

Rudy looked up at the screen and read the names, details, and their faces within a minute. Then, he used telekinesis and temperature tempering with other forms of his psychic abilities to break down the gold into a required amount.

Then, he tossed them to the respective people without messing up even a milligram of the gold he owed them.

The entire cart of ten thousand gold biscuits was used up in distribution. Still, some of the fans were left.

There were also the fans who had bet money on Rudy but didn't come to take one hundred times more after he lost the challenge. Maybe because the amount they bet was negligible, and one hundred times of it wouldn't be too much. Or perhaps they simply had too much money to burn and betted on Rudy for fun.

Regardless, Rudy planned to return the debt to anyone who came to ask for it with valid proof. After all, he was the Lord, and Lord owed no one— except his girls.

Around thirty minutes later, Rudy had paid all the debt, and 35% gold of the second cart was also used. He had sent Maria and Lilim inside as it was going to take a while to finish everything up.

Once everything was cleared, Rudy looked at his ranking, but it hadn't changed much. He was still at #4 with a slight increase in his worth and fame points.

"Alright, my dear fans! Are you ready for the next and hopefully my last challenge?!"

"Yeah!

"Let's go!"

"It better be amazing!"

"Ahem!" Rudy cleared his throat and uttered, "The challenge is quite simple, you see."

He pointed his finger at his ranking and said, "I am currently at #4. Make me top #1 in the next ten minutes, and I will give you one hundred times more regardless of how much you bet on me. It can be one dollar or a hundred dollars.

Of course, if your betting amount is more than the worth of one gold biscuit, you will get more in return. And as you can see, the gold I have given you is 100% authentic. So do whatever you can!

Ask your friends and families, or anyone you want. As long as I become #1, I don't care how you do it. Of course, they will also get the promised reward."

Rudy's worth and fame began to increase rapidly, but his fan increase was slow. He had purposely given them such a short time as he didn't want to give them time to think.

His challenge was no different than the previous challenge. However, instead of putting a failing condition this time, he was giving rewards for free. He also removed all the restrictions and requirements so anyone could participate in this challenge.

Except for his old fans who gave up on him. They must be regretting not holding Rudy's finger when he was giving them his hand.

Moreover, Rudy promised to give more rewards if they bet more, so the rich gamblers had a strong incentive to bet as much as they could without using too much of their money.

It was similar to an investment, except they were getting the rewards in such a short time.

After looking at his worth and closing Lu Bela's worth, Rudy knew he would soon be out of gold. So he went inside and flew to space again to gather more gold.

He could do that on the earth too, but his gathering ability conjured things from his surroundings. So if he used that ability on earth, he would be stealing gold from his surroundings.

Going to space was the best choice as it was vast and contained an infinite amount of resources depending on what one was looking for. The space was expanded to infinity with no end, or so one believed.

Rudy had to increase his gathering ability radius and conjure as much gold as he could. However, halfway through, he returned to the estate to try something new using one of his old abilities.
