Rudy teleported to the pool house with Alice, but it was empty, except only Vriti, using her phone on the bed.


    She was startled when Rudy and Alice appeared out of nowhere, but she managed to not show any reaction.


    "Where is everyone?" Rudy asked Vriti.


    "Pool."


    "They have taken a liking to the pool. I have to make sure our new ce has a big pool," he muttered.


    "Why are you here then? You don''t like pools?"


    "I was sleeping at night and woke up a while ago. I can''t go there because the sun is up. And the others have been there since night. They will return at… mid…day? Is that a word?"


    "Yes, you can call it midday. But it''s better if you call it noon."


    "Understood."


    Rudy nudged Alice and asked, "What will you do now?"


    "Well, I will go there, I guess? What will you do?"


    "I will drop you there."


    "Umm…" Vriti clenched the bedsheet and meekly uttered, "If you are going there, please take me with you. I am bored."


    "Of course. And…" Rudy conjured a ck umbre in his hand and erged it to almost double its original size.


    "That is… I saw it in the movies…" Vriti muttered.


    "Yes, this is an umbre, and you can use it to travel under the sun. It''s not a permanent or harmless solution, but with this, you won''t be burned by the sun''s light. You will still feel hot, though."


    Alice opened the umbre and said, "It feels heavy, and the canopy is thick."


    "I made it for the vampires, so it would feel heavy to normal humans. And the canopy is multyered. Also, the roof is big enough to provide shade in a 3-meter radius. So no matter where the sun is in the sky, its rays won''t fall near anyone using the umbre," Rudy asserted the functions of the umbre.


    "...."


    "And just in case…" Rudy made ten copies of the umbre and said, "I will make multiple copies for everyone."


    "I want to test it, so can I walk my way there?" Vriti asked.


    "Your wish," Rudy shrugged.


    "I will go with her then," Alice quipped.


    "Are you sure? I can drop you off if you want, and that would be quicker."


    ''What''s with the difference in treatment? Could he not say the same to me?'' Vriti sighed.


    Alice handed the umbre to Vriti, and they both walked out of the pool house under the shade of the umbre.


    "And… they left…"


    Rudy jumped on the nearest bed and let out a short sigh.


    "What do I do now? I have nothing to do. Should I go home?" he asked himself.


    "No. It''s been like three hours since Ist met mom, and she is sleeping right now. If I go home… I will probably try to make moves on her since my horny ass can''t rest when I am around her."


    SIGH!


    "I guess I will sleep…. no. No sleeping. All I am doing is sleeping. Why am I sleeping so much? I don''t feel tired."


    Rudy took out his phone and searched on the inte about his condition.


    "I obviously don''t have any disease or disorder, but there might be some simr symptoms."


    He opened the first article that came up after searching, and read the reasons why he felt sleepy all the time.


    "Most of them are about health and medical conditions, nutrients and fatigue-rted. But I have none of that. Hmm… stress is one of the reasons."


    After a brief silence, he asked himself, "Am I stressed?''


    ''It''s true that a lot of things have been happening, and the most I was worried about was mom and Elena, but both matters have been solved peacefully. Stress is mental rted, and I can''te up with powers to counter that.


    Besides, I have many stress relievers. The first one is, of course, my harem. I have so many girls I can y with. Second is my powers; I can do anything I want. And third is… this life; I have fixed most of the mistakes I had made in my past life.''


    "Maybe I should go to the pool and hang out with girls? I can''t flirt or make a move on them because Jane and Rias will be there. Still, it''s better than being alone."


    "Rudy! Rudy! Help me!"


    Rudy heard the call for help. And the voice belonged to none other than Jane, who was presently the strongest member of his harem.


    He jumped out of bed to the door of the pool house. He was ready to smite the whole world, whoever dared to harm Jane. However, when he opened the door, all his fury vanished.


    Jane was at the doorway, trying to enter the pool house, but she couldn''t because the umbre was too big to fit in the entrance.


    "...what are you doing?" Rudy asked.


    "I can''t enter! Why is this thing not going through?!"


    Rudy shook his head in disbelief and said, "Obviously, something so big wouldn''t pass through the narrow doorway. Have you be an idiot after spending time in the human world?"


    Jane furrowed her brows and red at Rudy.


    "What''s with that re?"


    She puckered her lips and said, "You big dick can enter and fit the narrow pussies of your harem members without ease, so why can''t this pass through the doorway?"


    "..." Rudy took the umbre from Jane''s hand and closed it before saying, "Noments."


    "How did you turn it small?!" Jane eximed in curiosity.


    Rudy opened and closed the umbre in front of Jane to see the change in her reactions.


    "You saw this in the movies, didn''t you? So why are you so surprised to see it?"


    "Because not everything in the movies is true, so I assumed that was fake."


    ''I am seriously worried about her survival in the human world.''


    "Here, here. Let me try it too!"


    Rudy gave the umbre to Jane and let her y with it.


    He smiled at her and said, "You are like a kid getting all excited to y with a new toy."
