The Wandering of an Unstuck Stepbro: Multiverse Travel

Chapter 117: Ambush



Chapter 117: Ambush

(A/N Bonus bonus chapter. Praise me.)

(Ryoto's pov)

The school had ended, and Lala was dragged away by the girls once again. Is it the famous woman's instinct that lets them know that something is different? Who knows. Bit, it's good that Lala has friends she can spend time with.

Now that I think about it, do I have to make friends?

Rito is my brother, so he doesn't count. Kenichi is too perverted, so no. Zastin thinks of me as a higher-up since I'm Lala's fianc.

I think I can only think of Jugemu as a friend. I'm not counting Karma since he is in another world and all.

But now that I have some free time, I probably should use it to train. I decided, however, to take a short walk to relax.

I noticed a trail of lollipops near the river.

The last time it happened, I mat Truck-kun, so I did what every sensible person would and picked up every candy that I found.

As I picked up the last lollipop that was very one to the water, someone jumped out of the river.

Alme: "Got ya!"

To my surprise, she used the water around her to attack me.

She used something similar to water bending.

A giant water attack was coming my way, but I was calm.

The most fundamental element of water bending is using your enemy's strength against him.

I used the incoming stream of water and redirected it so it would fly back at her.

Alme: "What!!?"

She barely avoided it.

Alme: "You can control water!!?"

Ryoto: "No."

Alme squinted her eyes, knowing very well that I was lying.

Ryoto: "OK, so I know that you are here because you either want to cancel the engagement or want to be on top in this relationship, but I didn't know about your custom when I spanked you, so can we forget about it? We can start off as friends, and maybe later, if you still want to, we can get together, but you should know that I already have a fianc, so you need to meet her first."

Alme didn't say anything but was looking at me, thinking about something, and then she sighed.

Alme: "*Sigh* I guessed as much, but I still need to follow traditions and all. Besides, I know that you're engaged to Lala Satalin Deviluke, the first princess of Deviluke. You are famous throughout the whole galaxy, and I don't mind it. It just shows how capable of a man you are, but I still want to be the dominant one in the relationship, so I'll defeat you."

She then showed a fearless smile. The one she was showing the whole time during our last confrontation.

Alme: "I observed you for the last few days to look for some kind of weakness in you, but the only thing I got was that you like lollipops for some reason, so if you let me win, I'll give you this lollipop."

She took out a big lollipop that looked incredible. My eyes went wide, but I won't be bought with just one lollipop.

Ryoto: Do you really think that I would be bought with just one lollipop?"

Alme: "No, that's why I have two."

She took out a second one.

...

Karen: "You don't consider it, right?"

'But it's two lollipops.'

Karen: "Ryoto!!!"

'I know, I know. I'm just joking.'

Ryoto: "Well, how about a bet. We'll use our water manipulating powers and see who will win. I don't want to be ambushed like today, and from Jugemu, I know that you would do it nine more times. I have more important things to worry about at the moment."

Alme was thinking about it for a moment and agreed.

Alme: "Sure, why not. I'm pretty confident in my water manipulation."

Ryoto: "Ready or not, Start!"

I used the water from the river to attack Alme from behind. It was a big wave attack, and she noticed it and smirked.

Alme: "You think that just a lot of water will be enough to defeat me!?"

She split the wave in half. An impressive feat, I must say, but it's not enough.

As the water hit the ground, I reused it to attack her from both sides, and the results were the same. It was halved once again.

Seeing that it didn't work, I surrounded her entirely with water, but as I did before, she used this water against me as she did quick and small burst attacks at me, which I dodged flawlessly.

I didn't abandon my original plan and still tried to surround her. Slowly I reduced the circle, and Alme tried to break free from it by running through the wall of water, and that's what I was waiting for.

I turned the area where she wanted to break through into ice. A thick wall of ice. As she didn't expect it, she didn't use enough strength to break through the ice even if she could.

This one moment of surprise stunned her for a very short moment.

Using this moment, the water around her started to flow towards her at high speed, and as it covered her whole body except her head, I turned the water into ice, making Alme unable to move her body.

She tried to struggle, but the ice was thick and hard.

Ryoto: "It looks like I win again. I would advise you to give up."

Alme: "Ha... Haha... Hahahaha! It was great! You are even stronger than I thought. Not only you have all powers of Spider-man and can use your aura to defend yourself, but you can also manipulate water! You are the perfect husband candidate!"

Ryoto: "Really?"

Alme: "Yes, and I can see that you are more focused on something than before. A focused man is very attractive, even more now that you won against me!"

Ryoto: "I see. Good for you, I guess."

Alme: "I would kiss you, but you need to free me from ice."

Where us Utsu when you need him.

Ryoto: "I'll free you, but no kissing for now. You need to meet Lala first."

Alme: "Sure, no problem."

It looks like it's the day when my fianc meets my fianc.

Should I call Jugemu just in case?
