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!" Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

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.

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?
