Chapter 352 Returning to the School

Chapter 352: Returning to the School

"I wonder if mom has returned yet." Rudy went downstairs to check, but Rebecca wasn't there. "I guessed so..." he sighed. "She will probably come late on purpose. Well, let's give her some time. I myself have no idea what I am going to talk to her about."

Rudy went to the bathroom and took a bath with Angelica. He came out fifteen minutes later while wiping his wet hair with a towel.

"It's so hard to take care of long hair. Even washing them was a pain in the ass."

Angelica followed Rudy upstairs to his room with a cheerful smile on her face. "Quickies in the morning are the best, After changing his school uniform, he looked in the minor and wondered, "What will I do with my hair? I can't go to school with them like this." Rudy grabbed his hair tightly by his head and used a sharp wind attack to cut them.

"There. Now they are short." He threw the long hair on the bed and said, "Let's go now."

He teleported near Alice's house and walked the rest of the way. But much to his surprise, her house was locked, and Alice wasn't there. 'She may have already left since she doesn't Imow you are back,' Angelica uttered from Rudy's body. "Yeah. So now I have to find her on the way..." Rudy hurried his way to school, but he couldn't find her.

He lazily entered the school and made his way to his classroom to see Alice sitting at her desk

She was focused on the book and didn't notice Rudy had arrived. Rudy sat on his desk and looked at Alice with a smile on his face. After a few seconds, Alice realized someone was sitting at Rudy's desk, so she turned her head to the side to see him smiling and grinning at her.

She stared at him for a few seconds with a dazed expression on her face. "Before you ask anything, yes, this is not a dream," Rudy said with a soft scoff. Alice moved her hand to Rudy's face and touched it. Then, she moved her other hand and slapped him lightly on the other cheek "I was expecting a hug or a Fans, not a slap." "Where have you been?" she asked with teary eyes. "Welt. let me show you." Rudy placed his hand on Alice's hands and showed everything to Alice. "No way...something like that happened?" she asked with a baffled look on her face. "Yeah?

"And when your relationship with Rias got better and better, I kept ignoring you?"

"Yeah. You were obviously jealous." "So not only one, but you have four vampires in your harem..." "Are you angry?" Rudy asked curiously. "Not really." Alice shrugged her shoulders and said, "One or ten, it won't matter if you have a harem already." "Wow. That's so optimistic of you." Rudy glanced around the classroom from the corner of his eyes and sighed after seeing half of the class was already full. "When did you return?" "Last night. I came to visit you, but you were sleeping," Rudy responded calmly.

A few seconds later, Alice squinted her eyes and said, "Did you do anything to me in my sleep." "Whoa- Calm down. Don't you even dare think of such things. You need to stay innocent, alright?" "It's hard to stay innocent after you corrupted me with the pleasure of being a girl." "Why do I get blamed for everything? I am pure, innocent, and in every way holy," Rudy said with a proud face.O "Oh? Is that why you made moves on your lover's twin sister, her maid, and her great grandmother?" she asked with a judging look on her face. "Ahem!" Rudy and Alice were interrupted by someone's presence. Rudy moved his gaze and saw Janet standing there with tears in her eyes.° "Hey... what's up?" Rudy asked with an awkward smile on his face. Janet's eyes got more teary, but she didn't say anything. She turned around, wiped her tears, and went to sit at her desk "...?" Rudy turned to Alice with a confused look on his face and asked, "What was that?" Alice shrugged her shoulders in response. 'In my past life, Janet confessed her love to me when I was in the university. And she told me that she fell in love with me after we spent time together at the university. So she shouldn't be in love with me right now. Unless... I messed up the events and... yeah.' Rudy recalled his talk and walk with Janet on the night he went to the vampire world.

'But that's a good thing. If I had let everything happen as it was supposed to, Janet would end up going out with some delinquent in the senior class and... I don't even want to recall that fiasco.'

Alice and Rudy talked until the bell rang and morning call started. After a few lectures, it was finally Rim's lecture, and her mood was brightened after seeing Rudy had returned. However, the rest of the students in the class didn't like that.

When Rudy wasn't in school, Rize was also in a gloomy mood and didn't care about the class. Of course, she taught the students as she was supposed to but didn't give them any homework She wasn't strict in class either. In short, she wasn't acting like herself. But after Rudy returned, she gave them a lot of homework that she didn't give in Rudy's absence and scolded those who even moved their gaze to the side. Once the school hours had ended, Rudy walked Alice to her house and bid her goodbye. Rudy then teleported to his house and went downstairs to check on Rebecca, but she had closed the door of her room. When Rudy used his see-through ability, he saw her fast asleep on the bed with a happy smile on her face. Rudy changed his clothes and wore a hoodie to cover his head with the hood. "Now, time to go to the bank The very first step of my journey to become the richest person on this planet.?

Chapter 353: Visiting the Bank

'It's all your fault,' Angelica said from inside his body.

SIGH!

As Rudy had promised Maria, he was on his way to the central bank, which was two cities away from his town— and he had never been there. He teleported to the next city but had to fly all the way to the next one. "To be honest, I am glad that it's not that far. We are fortunate to have a branch of the central bank near us," Rudy said while flying above the clouds to remain hidden from everyone's sight. He lived more of a village than a town— although it was slowly developing into one. And the city next to his village where Joe and Lucy lived, where Reina's waterpark and the casino were located. Because of such attractions and newly founded facilities, the city was rapidly developing. "If I remember correctly, there was a park near the central bank that was later demolished and turned into a mall even after many protests from the citizens. That turned out to be one of the worst decisions in history since everyone in the city boycotted that mall, and it eventually went bankrupt." Rudy landed on the backside of the park, where no one was around. "Since it's late noon of summer, no one would come to the park But there are still some people here for some reason..? Angelica came out of Rudy's body and said, "Imagine if you had called her in the evening. Everything would be crowded, and finding her would have been a hassle."

"What are you doing here?" Someone asked from a distance. Rudy glanced at the voice and saw Maria standing there, wearing a similar hoodie as him. "What are 'you' doing here?" Rudy questioned back without showing any change of expression on his face. "I was waiting for you in the park since there was nothing to do. You don't even have a phone, an I had no way to contact you. But I hoped that you would drop by the park or call me using the phone booth to find my location."

She smiled and added, "But I am glad I was able to find you." 0

"Now!" Maria folded her hands below her bosom and said, "Let's get you a phone first!" "Actually..." Rudy looked at the sun and said, "It's almost 4PM. We should go to the bank first and make your account before the bank closes?

"Hmm..? She hummed with a judging look on her face. "By the way." Rudy glanced around using his see-through ability and asked, "Where are your bodyguards?" Maria walked to Rudy and whispered in his ears, "I sneaked out." "What?!" he exclaimed in shock "How did they even allow you to leave alone to an entirely different city? I mean, yeah, you said you sneaked out, but how did they not notice?" 0 "As you know, the underground VIP gambling tournament will be later this week, so the entire underworld is preparing for that. It's the grand event of the year, and gamblers from all over the world come to participate," she said with a proud face. "That's why, the security at my place is liberal, which gave me a chance to sneak out without being noticed by anyone."

"Wait, the entire world?" "Indeed. There are underworlds all around the globe. And the winner of the underworld VIP tournament gets qualified to the VVIP tournament." Rudy squinted his eyes with a judging look on his face and said, "You never told me about that."

"Honestly, getting there would be a dream come true situation. It's so hard that even my father, who is a professional gambler, was never able to get there. Imagine, only twelve people from the seven billion people in the world!" she said with a resolute expression on her face. "Calm down. You exaggerated it. First of all, not all the seven billion people do gambling. Maybe a million of them_ But yeah, that does sound appealing."

Rudy's goal had changed. "I know, right! And no one knows what they give as a reward for winning the VVIP underground tournament-!"

"Heh." Rudy chuckled softly and uttered, "You are so reactive when it comes to gambling stuff, huh?"

"Well, I started gambling ever since I was three years old, so you may consider me a gambling addict," she said with a proud and confident look "Then you don't need me to win the tournaments, right?" he teased with a grin on his face.

"No! I need you! I don't have super luck like you have. And my brother and father don't allow me to gamble in the other casinos," she groaned with a sigh. 0 "You said no one knows the reward of the VVIP underground tournament, but you also said it happens yearly. So shouldn't everyone already know what the rewards are? What did the previous winners get?" Rudy asked patiently with a curious face.

"Most of them didn't win?

"Huh?" Rudy raised his brow with a visibly confused look on his face and asked, "What do you mean?" "They forfeit before reaching the final round. And most of the contestants always say that it wasn't worth it to reach there. And none of them gambled after that

"Earlier, it had my curiosity, but now it has my attention! Now, let's go to the fucking bank and get you an account!"

Maria and Rudy went to the bank and passed through the security. However, they were being monitored by the guards as they both were wearing hoodies.

They walked to the counter, and it was then Rudy realized something. He checked Maria's hands and asked:

"Where are the documents required to open an account?" ..? She averted her gaze and said, "You never told me to bring them."

"I was kidding! I already submitted them here and even filled the form!" she hissed.

"That wasn't the right time for a joke. But anyway, let's—"

BANG- BANG!

PEW! PEW!

That day, robbers broke into the bank armored with advanced weapons that clearly didn't belong in the 200s timeline.°
