Chapter 106: Alme

Chapter 106: Alme

(Ryoto's pov)

Presumably, Jugemu's sister broke our wall.

Not gonna lie. I'm a bit angry, but first...

Ryoto: "Jugemu, are you adopted? She doesn't look anything like you. She doesn't even look the same species as you."

Jugemu: "Females of my species look like that, but unlike them, my sister has functioning eyes. Just like me, the rest of the population can't see on land, but Amel can but at the price of our race signature ability to sense humidity in the air and cant use sonar underwater the water."

Amel: "Thanks for the introduction Nii-san but it wasn't needed. Liars don't deserve to know my name!"

I could feel the hostility in her voice.

Ryoto: "You don't even know, and you call me a liar. Aren't you moving a tad too fast?"

Amel: "I know enough from Nii-san's letters and you not opening your eyes is enough for me to know your character. Normally, I would beat rightfulness right into you, but you're deceiving my brother, which is unforgivable! Like our mom always said, 'friends come and go, but family always stays together. That's why I plan on smashing you!" nove(l)bi(n.)com

...

Jugemu: "Amel-!"

Amel: "Don't interfere, Nii-san."

Ryoto: "She is right, Jugemu, but I need to apologize to you."

Jugemu looked confused.

Ryoto: "I'm going to spank Amel for breaking our wall. I used my own money to buy manga on the bookshelf that stood there."

Plus, I hid lollipops there, and she destroyed them.

Karen: "Is this why you are pissed?"

'I'm not going to comment on it.'

Amel: "Strong words for someone whose face will be smashed to the ground."

A smile didn't leave her face. It looks like she likes being challenged, even if she doesn't like the person.

Jugemu: "Ryoto, then please take care of my sister."

Ryoto: "Zaatin, stay here and protect our manuscript in case something happens."

Zastin: "Bu-!"

Zastin wanted to protest, but I used the 'trust me' card.

If I was prepared better or had a better plan, maybe I wouldn't need to do it. Thankfully I had plan B for failing to save him, and in just a few more months, it will start.

Alme was breathing heavily, showing how exhausted she was. She wasn't alone in this, as I also was getting tired.

Alme: "What's your name?"

Ryoto: "Huh?"

Alme: "Your name, tell me what it is."

Ryoto: "Ryoto Yuuki."

She closed her eyes and opened them shortly after, but all her playfulness was gone.

Alme: "Ryoto Yuuki, my name is Alme no Kokgi Suikeru Kajiregami ni Gakasume Oraimatsu ga Baibo Baibo Baibo no Garingan Garingan no Shirengan Shirengan no Bonbopoki no Bonbokona no Chokyumi no Chosuke.

I acknowledge you are a strong and skilled warrior. That's why I will use my race's most powerful ability. If you block it, you'll win."

Ryoto: "Isn't this bet a little unfair? I mean, I would rather dodge it than block it. I'm not the most durable after all."

Alme: "You can't fool me. I noticed a strange aura a few times when I punched you. That surface was hard like a pangolin shark's skin."

Ryoto: "The pangolin what?"

Alme: "Pangolin shark. It's an animal with very hard skin and very soft meat. The contrast is what makes it delicious."

A drop of salvia started dripping out of her mouth, but she quickly wiped it.

Alme: "Nevermind that. I'm sure like 70% that you'll survive it, so good luck!"

She then inhaled very deeply, expanding her chest in the process to its limit and spewing out a large amount of water. The diameter of this projectile was bigger than my whole body, and I just noticed that I was standing in front of the building where my and Zastin's manga office is. If it's destroyed, our place of work is destroyed in the process, so the only option is to block it.

I smiled.

Alme just gave me another opportunity to test out my powers this time. It would be the first time I use it in action.

I pointed my hand up, and it glowed blue and was covered in a blue orb. From the sphere, lighting bolts connected my hand to the newly appeared blue giant hand. It was semi-transparent and glowed slightly with a blue light.

Ryoto: "God hand!"

I used 'God hand' to stop all incoming water. It was a strong torrent, and it even pushed me back, but I stood firm and protected a building.

Ryoto: "Looks like I win, Alme."
