The Wandering of an Unstuck Stepbro: Multiverse Travel

Chapter 25: Saki Tenjouin

(3rd pov)

The day of the festival was slowly approaching, and all of the different classes from three different years were preparing their own attractions, and the Class 1-A wasn't any different.

They were divided into teams that would have each task to complete. Ryoto was in a group with Rito and Haruna. While he didn't want to cockblock his little brother, it just happened as if it was a will of the world...

They worked together for a while until they noticed that they didn't have any more vinyl tape.

Ryoto: "I'll go buy some."

Ryoto wanted to give Rito some chance. Being the third wheel, he felt a little bad, but the rest is on Rito to carry out. If he succeeds, the only one he could be thankful to would be himself, and the same thing could be said if he fails or does nothing.

Ryoto met a senpai he expected outside the classroom as he witnessed one of her followers spying on him. He smiled at every photo just to mess with her, but if anyone asked, he would say that it was an act of politeness because when someone takes a photo of you, you should smile to look good on the picture.

Saki Tenjouin was patiently waiting for Ryoto to be alone, and when she saw it, she took the chance.

Saki: "Hey, you! I'm Saki Tenjouin from 2-B!! I'll give you permission to date me!!"

She is exceptionally narcissistic Ryoto thought.

Ryoto: "Hello there, senpai. You say you want to date me. Can you tell me why?"

Saki: "Well... I believe that you are the one who should be perfect to be my boyfriend."

Ryoto: "I see. Why?"

Saki: "Because... don't question the queen of Sainan High. If she deems you worthy, then you must be worthy!

(Ryoto's pov)

I see, so she didn't research me enough to answer basic questions. After she got the report about me, I bet she rushed here after she got the idea of 'stealing' me away from Lala to beat her. The question is if I should teach her to not mess with a boy during puberty or just let her go with a bit of warning.

Karen: "Teach her the lesson!"

Karen literally shouted inside my head.

'Wow, I didn't expect that answer from you, Karen.'

Karen: "I need some stress relief. I tried to be nicer and don't insult you as much, but I can only take so much. So why don't I just change targets? I can't leave you, so you need to execute it in my place, but please, I need it!"

'I'm stressed as of late, so I also need an outlet for my emotions, so why not."

Karen: "Is it about a ki-"

'DON'T. SAY. ANYTHING. It didn't happen.'

Karen: "I see you're in denial. Don't worry, though. No matter how much in denial you are, I'll always be with you."

Reassuring... But now, as I'm before Saki-senpai, I'll teach her something she'll never forget.

Ryoto: "Sure, I'll go with you, but we'll need to do something first as confirmation of some sort."

Saki: "Sure, and know that this queen could grant any request."

She said proudly, puffing out her chest.

I closed up to her without saying a word as she slowly started backing off.

Saki: "W-what are you planning to do?"

Her back hit the wall, not allowing her to escape anymore. I slammed said wall next to her head, startling her a bit. I put my other hand under her chin and slowly raised it to match our eyes.

Ryoto: "As a couple, we should obviously kiss."

Saki: "W-wait, I'm n-not ready. Aren't we going too fast? Shouldn't we get to know each other first go to eat dinner at a five-star restaurant, go to a ball together to announce our relationship?"

Ryoto: "But didn't you say that I'm worthy of being your boyfriend, and I shouldn't question the queen's decision, so we shouldn't worry about these steps."

I started closing for a kiss, and Saki slowly accepted her fate as she closed her eyes, ready for a kiss, but the kiss never came as she only heard a sound of a wooden sword clashing with something hard.

When she opened one of her eyes to peek, she saw Rin, her bodyguard, attacking me, who was defending against her with only my finger. What she didn't know was that my finger was coated in Haki since it was invisible. Many believe that Busoshoku Haki has this metal color when used, but in reality, it's invisible to the naked eye. Not me, though, thanks to my eyes, I could see the difference while it was used.

Rin: "What!? How!?"

I just pulled Aizen on someone, and it feels incredible. It should be illegal how badass it is, but I probably should focus on the girl before me. Who am I kidding? Even without concentrating, I would dodge every incoming attack from her, and even if she somehow would land a hit on me, it wouldn't hurt too much.

Ryoto: "Well, hello there, Rin-senpai. It's not nice to attack your kouhai in the hallways. It's not nice to attack anyone anywhere, really, but you get the point."

I smiled, but it only made her more agitated.

Rin: "What's not 'nice' is YOU assaulting Saki-sama!!!"

Ryoto: "Well, since Saki-senpai wanted to seduce me because she wanted to show that she is better than Lala, I thought that it would be a good idea to teach her the lesson to not play with fire if you don't want to be burned."

Rin: "Even so, it's unacceptable for you to do such a thing!"

Ryoto: "So it's okay for you to plan against my girlfriend, but if I plan something against your group, then it's magically illegal. Hypocrisy at its finest."

Karen: "Don't converse with her. Just execute order 66!"

Karen is out for blood, and an angry bodyguard stands before me, wanting to hurt me terribly... Wait, I've got an idea. I pulled off Aizen, then this time I'll...

Ryoto: "You know what? I'll let you hit me with your sword, and I won't even block. Hit wherever you like, be it chest, neck, or anything else, I won't budge."

I opened my arms, welcoming attack, and waited. Rin did not know what she should do as it was the first time she had been in a situation like that.

Ryoto: "Can you hurry? I've got a vinyl tape to buy."

My comment seemed to anger her as a vein popped out on her forehead, and she swung her sword at my neck. I used Haki to harden the area where she struck, not allowing any damage to reach me. All of the three girls were shocked as I, as promised, didn't even flinch.

Ryoto: "If that's all, then I'll be going."

I left them in the hallways, and they didn't even follow me as the whole situation was too hard to process. I also just noticed that I leave people dumbfounded quite often.
