The Wandering of an Unstuck Stepbro: Multiverse Travel

Chapter 26: A side quest during an errand



Chapter 26: A side quest during an errand

(3rd pov)

Ryoto left the three girls dumbfounded, and only when they couldn't see him anymore did they regain their focus.

Ayo: "What... was that?"

Rin: "I don't know, but..."

Rin moved her finger slowly towards her sword, and as soon as it barely touched, the weapon snapped in half.

Ayo: "Wasn't that sword custom made of Australian Buloke? It's the hardest wood in the world, and it snapped because you hit Yuuki-san. How hard is his skin!?"

Rin: "It felt like hitting metal, but I'm sure I would be able to put at least a dent in it with this sword, but after hitting him, he not only left unscathed, but the sword broke as well. I wouldn't believe it if I didn't experience it myself."

Ayo: "Is he even human?"

Rin: "I heard from my father that some martial arts practice something called iron skin, so maybe Yuuki-kun is a talented martial artist?"

Ayo: "But he's so young. Do you believe that he would be able to master technique like that in a 'short' time?"

While Aya and Rin discussed the events that had just happened, Saki was still in a daze.

Saki: 'Ryoto...-sama, he looked like a knight in the shining armor protecting a princess. The way he stopped Rin's attack was astounding, and he even placed his health and well-being on the line to calm her down. Truly a noble individual he is.'

Saki blushed as she was thinking about Ryoto, but then she realized.

Saki: 'But he's Lala's fiance. First, I need to prove to him that 8n better than her then he'll come running to me, hooohohoho!'

Even in her head, she laughed the same way, but her thoughts were interrupted by her bodyguard.

Rin: "Anyway, we should keep our distance from him. He's like other men just waiting for a chance to pounce anything that moves, and what's worse, he is strong enough to force himself on anyone!"

Aya: "So why didn't he do it this time? I mean, he's had a chance to do it right now, but he let you hit him and walked away to buy whatever he needed."

Aya acted as the reasonable one in the group. Rin could be called a muscle, and Saki was the leader, so it's not strange that her points made sense, but Rin didn't want to admit defeat. Saki-sama was almost assaulted by him, and she'll do anything to stop him the next time he tries it.

Saki: 'What's this feeling in my chest. When thinking about him, I feel warm but imagining him next to Lala hurts the area where my heart is. Why is that? *Sigh*'

Saki's mind would be occupied with these thoughts for the next few days.

(Ryoto's pov)

I was going to a shop to buy a vinyl tape, but I noticed a girl surrounded by three guys on the way there. Why do people do that? Do they think they have a bigger chance in a group or in case of failure? You know what, better not think about it.

I walked and stopped between two guys, throwing my arms around these two's shoulders. They looked like typical delinquents that wanted to hook up with a girl. They probably skipped school today.

Ryoto: "Hello boys, why are you surrounding one girl like a group of vultures. I'm hoping you're not compensating for something. If so, my condolence."

Not knowing how to react, there was silence, and I took a chance to look at the girl. Purple eyes behind her glasses and black hair tied into short twin-tails. She wore a school uniform with an extremely short skirt. It was practically just enough to cover her panties. Would it be a centimeter shorter? She would show her panties to the world.

Guy 1: "What? Who are you!?"

Oh, they finally woke up.

Ryoto: "I'm this girl's boyfriend. We planned on skipping class to meet up, so imagine my surprise to see her surrounded by unknown men."

I tighten my grab on the two men enough to hurt them but not break their bones.

Guy 2: "Awawawa, it hurts, man!"

Guy 1: "Yeah, we didn't know she was taken, just let us go."

I retracted my arms, but one of them tried to sucker punch me as soon as I did that. My spider-sense didn't even activate. That's how much of a threat he was to me.

Karen: "Yes, more violence!!!"

I ignored Karen's comment as her being happy scared me to some degree.

I just Aizen'd someone not so long ago, and I don't plan on letting some mob hit me, so I swiftly dodged it, and Judo slammed the attacker.

Ryoto: "Play stupid games, win stupid prizes."

Seeing their friend being slammed on the ground like a sack of potatoes, they become afraid and run away after stumbling a few times. I admired my work for a moment. After that, I turned to the saved girl, who started thanking me.

???: "Thank you so much for helping out, They were very persistent, and I couldn't shake them off no matter what I said."

She bowed to me to show her gratitude.

Ryoto: "No problem really, my name is Ryoto Yuuki, by the way."

I introduced myself.

Kyouko: "Ah, my name is Kyouko... eeh... Kerisaki! Yes, Kyouka Kerisaki is my name!"

Ryoto: "Well, it was nice meeting you, Kirisaki-san, but I have an errand to complete, so if you excuse me."

I resumed my search for vinyl tape as Kyouko started thinking about something as she put her hand on her chin.

Kyouko: 'Did he say Kirisaki, or did I misheard something, hmm?'

I finally bought the needed item and returned to school. In the next few days, we worked hard to finish the animal cafe, and our work paid off as the finished product was satisfactory.

Tomorrow the festival will start, and I can't wait for it to begin, and nothing can change it.
