The Wandering of an Unstuck Stepbro: Multiverse Travel

Chapter 110: Adventure in the city

(Ryoto's pov)

People say that a new day is the beginning of a new adventure. I like to say that a new day is the end of a very pleasurable battle.

Am I bragging? A bit. But can you blame me? I am sleeping with one of the most beautiful girls in the galaxy, if not the universe. And she loves me, and I love her.

Never mind that after the typical school day, I decided to go for a walk alone. Lala also went with other girls to Karaoke to have some girl fun.

Walking around a city, I was looking for a candy shop so I could have a supply of lollipops. I can predict even without my ability that Kotegawa won't like it very much but do I care enough to stop my not-addiction?

The answer is no.

Karen: "Ryoto, I think you have a problem."

'Wrong, it's not a problem. It's a solution.'

As I was trying Karen to convert to lollipops, I noticed a girl surrounded by three guys. If I had a nickel for every time I saw a girl I knew surrounded by three guys, I would have 2 nickels which isn't a lot, but it's weird it happened twice.

Yui Kotegawa was reprimanding these guys about how they shouldn't smoke and should do something with their life.

The guys didn't like it very much but noticing Yui's look, they tried to have some fun with her. Kotegawa, of course, refused, but the thugs tried to force her into accepting.

Seeing her like this, I thought that I could do one nice thing for her, plus I was in a good mood after buying lollipops just a few moments earlier.

Who am I kidding? I just couldn't look away when she was in trouble. No one deserves to be in this situation.

I walked up to them without anyone noticing and put my arms around two of the guys scaring them in the process.

Ryoto: "Hello guys, whatchadooooin?"

Thug 1: "What the hell!!?"

Thug 2: "Where did he come from!!?"

Ryoto: "From behind, of course."

Thug 1: "Do you think this is funny!!?

Ryoto: A little."

The third Thug seemed to be smarter than the other two and tried first negotiating with me.

Thug 3: "Let's calm down first. How about you go do your business as usual and let us have some fun with this girl over here, and everyone is happy."

He put a hand on my shoulder and squeezed it a little.

Is he trying to Intimidate me?

I looked at Kotegawa, and she looked a little scared. I saw that she tried to hide it, though. It's not that surprising, though, as the moment the third thug moved closer to me, they positioned themselves next to Yui from both of her sides.

Well, asserting dominance over some thugs sounds like a fun idea, but how should I do it? There are so many ways. Hmm.

'Hey Karen, you are kind of an expert on humiliating people. What are you recommending? I could make them faint with Haoshoku Haki, but it would be boring. I could also put their pants on fire or other clothes, maybe their hair? I could also draw out their hidden desires. They definitely look like they have some embarrassing secrets. Using my math skills, I could also give them some bad luck after I'm done with them. The possibilities are endless!''

Karen: "Tsk, tsk, tsk. That's why you are still an amateur Ryoto. First of all, why choose when you could use multiple methods in succession. If it were me, I would release a bit of killing intent. Enough for them to be scared but not enough for them to faint. You have the skills to avoid Kotegawa with your intent, as you would probably do. Then you web up their mouth but not nose."

'Why not nose? Wouldn't it be better for them to be scared as they can't breathe because of the webbing?'

Karen: "Actually, it's better to not do that and scare them a little about what you can do. The imagination of people do wonders sometimes.

In my opinion, using your eyes every time can get boring. You need to get creative. For example, you can use your web as a timer. Web, all of them, up and put one loose string on fire, and look how it slowly creeps up towards them.

But the fun part is to discover these methods on your own."

'Keren... you are a genius!'

Karen: "Tell me something I don't know."

Karen was rightfully proud of her violence expertise.

'Pumpkins are not the first vegetables to be carved on Halloween. Celtic people in Ireland were carving turnips and lighting them with embers to ward off evil spirits.'

Karen: "..."

'...'

Karen: "Just because you have Internet doesn't mean you should search up useless things."

'Actually, it was Koro-sensei who thought me that as a fun fact of a day. It was also on Halloween, and we even dressed up as famous monsters.'

Karen: "What kind of monster were you?"

'Kappa.'

Karen: "...Really?"

'I know, not the most original, but I scared Terasaka by coming out of the river, so it was worth it. I even use water bending to create a bubble around my head and stay underwater as long as it was needed.'

Karen: "Now we're talking!!!"

As I was having a conversation with Karen, I stood there motionless. One of the thugs even waved his in front of my face.

Thug 1: "Do you think he got so scared that he froze up?"

Thug 2: "No, I think I got the power to freeze people. Yesterday I got a big brain freeze, and just like Spider-man, I got power."

He looked at his hands, realizing how powerful he had become.

Thug 2: "You mean that you ate radioactive ice cream? Dude!"

Thug 1: "Dude!'

Thug 2: "Hey, test your power on boss next."

Thug 1: "On it!"

He tried with all his might to freeze his boss but with no effect.

Ryoto: "Wow, these guys are idiots."

While showing a visible disappointment, the third thug agreed. He also didn't realize that I was fully focused once more.

I decided to try out things Karma liked to do. Because of him, I started having some spices on me. I mostly use them to 'better' the dishes when I'm eating at the cafeteria, but today, I'll use them in another way.

First, I let out some of my killing intent, snapping back all of the three thugs to reality. Now they looked at me, scared.

I quickly webbed them up and hung them upside-down. Strangely enough, one of them called me Peter.

They started screaming, but most of the people ignored us. Not even one informed the police about the accident.

I'm starting to lose faith in humanity... Who am I kidding? I already lost it, but people around me don't help in changing my mind on that topic.

Back to the torture we go. I have three victims scared for their life, but thankfully they don't need to fear for that.

I mixed some spices and forced them into their mouth, nose, and eyes.

I understood why Karma liked to do it that much.

Done with now unconscious testing subjects, I turned to Kotegawa and gave her a lollipop.

Ryoto: "I know that you can't ignore when someone is misbehaving, but there are some people that aren't as nice as me, so you need to be careful."

I said that as I was putting back all my spices.

Kotegawa, on the other hand, was looking at the lollipop in her hand in a daze.
