Chapter 118: My shark-girl fiance at my home
(A/N I'm tired of rewriting this chapter!!!! It just keeps deleting itself! Three times!!! But it's not enough to stop me from posting! Enjoy!!!!)
(Ryoto's pov)
I was walking home together with Alme in silence, so I decided to start a conversation.
As I wanted to start, I heard Karen sobbing.
'Karen, are you alright?'
Karen: "*Sob* Yes, everything is great. It's just... you grew so much. You even start conversations now. What a big difference looking back at your past."
... josei
I'm not sure if she is insulting or praising me.
Ryoto: "Hey Alme, earlier in the fight, you said that I have all Spider-man's powers. Does it mean that you read the manga?"
Alme: "Of course I did. I thought that I would learn about you if I read it. Besides, Nii-san is also working on this manga, so it was one more reason to check it out."
Ryoto: "So what do you think?"
Alme: "I really enjoyed it. The only flaw is that it's too short. Do you have more stories like this?"
Ryoto: "Not right now, but I can lend you manga from other authors if you want."
Alme: "That would be great. Thanks!"
She smiled widely at me.
...
She's cute.

We finally arrived at my home. The funny thing is that I didn't need to lead the way.
Ryoto: "How did you know the way home, Alme?"
Alme: "I mentioned that I observed you for a few days, right?"
Ryoto: "So you stalked me, yeah?"
Alme: "Yeah, lucky you."
...
Nevermind that. I entered the house.
Ryoto: "I'm home!"
Mikan: "Welcome home."
Mikan walked up to the entrance and saw me with a new girl. She looked at me, waiting for some explanation, eating her blue popsicle as usual.
Ryoto: "This is Alme, and she is Jugemu's little sister."
Alme looked at Mikan for a while and smiled.
Alme: "Hello, you must be Ryoto's little sister. As both of us are younger siblings, I hope we get along!"
She then turned to me and grabbed me by the arm.
Alme: "But you forgot to tell her that I'm also your fiancé!"
Mikan's eyes turned cold when she mentioned it.
Ryoto: Mikan my sister. You shouldn't look at your brother like that."
Mikan: "Aha, and does Lala know about it?"
Ryoto: "She was the first to know."
Mikan: "If she is fine with that, who am I to tell you otherwise but is it really a good time for increasing the numbers of your lovers?"
Alme: "What do you mean by that?"
Mikan: "It would be for Lala to tell you, and while we're on the topic, where is she?"
Ryoto: "She was dragged by the girls, and while I was taking a walk, I noticed a trail of lollipops, so I followed it, and then I was ambushed by the person here."
Alme: "That was me!"
She raised her hand with great energy and a smile.
Ryoto: "So I defeated her, and now she wants to marry me."
Mikan: "I don't know if I should be impressed or disappointed by your ability to get yourself in these situations."
Ryoto: "I also noticed that it happens only when I'm taking a walk."
Mikan: "..."
Until Lala returned, I decided to use my time to train as I had initially planned.
(Alme's pov)
I was finally invited to Ryoto's home, and I met his little sister. Her aura was a lot more mature than her age would show, but I hope we'll get along.
Now I only need to fight Lala for the position of the first wife. Our battle will be legendary!
Is what I would normally say. I know that I probably won't stand a chance against her, but it doesn't mean I won't try!
Until she comes through, I'll observe Ryoto's training in the garden as he said he would. There I met a big plant named Celine. She looked happy when Ryoto approached her.
It means that he is good with not only plants but also children because from what I can see from her aura, she is very young.
Ryoto really is a good candidate for my husband.

I watched Ryoto train, but he didn't practice any of his powers. He only did some forms and moves.
Now that I take a closer look, he moves similarly to when he was using water manipulation. Maybe u could use that in my own fighting style.
Mikan: "Here you go."
Mikan handed me a glass of juice and some snacks.
Alme: "Thanks!"
I took a bite of the offered food, and I was blown away by the taste.
Alme: "MHMM!!! It's delicious!"
Mikan: "I'm glad that you like it. I wasn't sure if you can eat the same thing as humans, but I'm happy that you do."
She sat next to me and observed Ryoto as well.
Mikan: "Can you tell me why you want to marry Ryoto even though he already has a fiancé?"
The question came out of nowhere.
Alme: "Mostly, it was the tradition, but the more I'm with him, the more I'm sure he is the right person."
Mikan: "And what about him having a fiancé?"
Alme: "What about it? It shows that he is a capable man of attracting another woman. Isn't that kind of person the best candidate for a husband? Ryoto is powerful, kind, and still growing stronger."
Mikan: "When you say it that way..."
Alme: "But enough about me. As your future sister, I want to know about you more as well. Tell me, when are you going to join?"
Mikan choked on her neverending popsicle.
Mikan: "*Cough* *Cough* Qhat did you say?"
Did I say something wrong?
Alme: "You obviously love your brother, so when are you going to join the harem?"
Mikan turned red. Is she embarrassed?
Mikan: "Onii-cha- I mean, Ryoto is my brother, so of course, I love him but not romantically!"
But her aura is telling differently. Am I wrong? No, but why would she deny it so much then?
I need to learn about humans more!
I looked at Ryoto, who was so focused on his training that he didn't notice anything.
Strange.
Lala: "I'm home!"
It looks like Lala got home and just on time. I am ready to fight for my position.
I smiled widely, showing off my teeth.
