Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

After a while, Rudy heard the sound of the cubicle unlocking and footsteps approaching him.

However, instead of walking by, the footsteps stopped in front of Rudy's cubicle.

"What's wrong?" the woman asked.

"This cubicle… it was open when we came here…" the man uttered.

"Maybe it's because of the wind or something?" the woman wondered. "Who cares? Let's go before my cuck husband gets suspicious again."

"No, let me check the cubicle."

The man tried to open the door, but of course, it was locked from the inside.

"It's locked from the inside! Someone is inside!" the man whispered violently at the woman.

He climbed up to see who was inside, but much to his surprise, it was empty.

"..."

The woman pulled the man's leg and asked, "Who is in there?"

"No one. It's empty," the man answered with a puzzled look on his face. "But… how is it locked from the inside then?"

They both left the washroom.

After a few seconds, Rudy teleported back.

"Phew!" he sighed in relief and muttered, "Imagine if I didn't have superpowers. I would be fucked."

Rudy waited for a while and left the washroom. Then, he made his way to the counter and exchanged 5$ to get the poker chip.

He walked to the roulette table and placed the token on number 36.

"I will be playing this."

The dealer looked at Rudy with a surprised look on his face and asked, "Is that your bet?"

"5$ is the minimum bet, am I right?" Rudy asked with a straight face and made sure to show no hesitation in his voice.

The dealer nodded and looked at the number Rudy had placed the bet on.

"Are you ready?" he asked.

Rudy nodded his head in response without saying anything.

The dealer spun and wheel, and after a few seconds, it stopped, and the ball landed on the number 36.

"..." The dealer was surprised to see that.

'I have been a dealer for ten years, and never in my life have I seen someone so confident about the number, especially on the first try,' the dealer uttered inwardly.

"Did you cheat?" Angelica asked with a judging look on her face.

Rudy shook his head in return.

The dealer placed the poker chips on the table to give Rudy his winning amount. There were eight types of poker chips:

White - $1

Red - $5

Orange - $10

Yellow - $20

Green - $25

Black - $100

Purple - $500

Maroon - $1,000

The dealer gave five yellow chips and eight orange chips to Rudy.

'I already got 180$. Few more games and I will have 10k$,' Rudy uttered inwardly and placed his bet on number 22.

He bet 175$ and kept 5$ to himself. So in case, even if he lost the bet, he would still have 5$ left to start over.

The dealer stared at Rudy in disbelief.

'This guy clearly doesn't know how to play. Any sane person would place a bet on multiple numbers so they could have a higher chance of winning and less chance of losing, but this guy is betting on the single. I guess he won the first time because of luck,' the dealer scoffed inwardly.

Sure, it was true that the more number he placed bet one, the higher the winning chances would be. But the payout on winning would be low, and winning wasn't guaranteed. Only the risk of losing was low.

The dealer spun the wheel again, and much to his surprise, it stopped on the number 22.

"...!"

Now, even Rudy was left baffled.

"How are you doing this?!" Angelica exclaimed in amusement. She was certain that Rudy was using his powers to move the ball, but that wasn't the case.

In gambling, it was all about luck. Sure, other factors played a role too, but it all came down to luck in the end.

Rudy never considered himself as a lucky person, especially after how his life treated him in his past life. But maybe that wasn't the case now?

The dealer grabbed the ball from the wheel and inspected it. Then, he called a waiter and asked him to bring another ball.

'This can't be a coincidence. Is this guy cheating?' the dealer wondered. 'But I have ten years of experience, and I know when someone cheats. This guy doesn't give off that vibe.'

The dealer passed ten purple chips, ten black chips, and 5 green chips.

'I already earned more than 6k$. I am honestly freaking out right now!'

Rudy took a deep breath and thought, 'What should I do now? I doubt my luck would remain the same.'

After pondering for a while, Rudy decided, 'I will bet 5k$ and keep the rest for now.'

Rudy placed the chips worth 5k$ on number 19 and said, "Straight."

"The highest bet on the table is 2.5k$," the dealer informed.

Confused, Rudy raised his brows and uttered, "But the family who was playing a while ago was betting 5k$."

"That was the home table. You can limit the highest bet to 5K$ if there are more than one player on the table. But currently, you are the only one playing, and the highest bet for a single player is limited to 2.5K$," the dealer explained in a calm voice.

"I see…" Rudy withdrew a 2.5k$ worth chip from the table and placed the bet of 2.5K on number 19.

'If I win this, I will have 90K$...' Rudy was having a hard time believing that. Who knew there was such an easy way to earn money?

"Are you sure you don't want to bet on multiple numbers?" the dealer asked with a judging look on his face.

Rudy nodded and said, "I will go single on number 19."

'This guy is having beginner's luck. He doesn't even know the basic rules of roulette,' the dealer sneered and spun the wheel.

After a few seconds, the wheel stopped, but the ball didn't stop on number 19.

"..."
