The Wandering of an Unstuck Stepbro: Multiverse Travel

(3rd pov)

After Ryoto's little outburst, Alme became very obedient, but Ryoto was still annoyed at her attempt to fight Lala. The girl in the question, of course, didn't mind and even encouraged Alme to fight with her after she gives birth since it wouldn't be fair with her wearing the Bum-bum protector-kun, and she didn't plan to take it off unless she was in bed or bath.

Ryoto decided to cool down for a while by laying down under Celine. Alme and Lala stayed in the garden observing him. Both girls were smiling the entire time.

Mikan went back to the kitchen to start preparing dinner.

(Rito's pov)

Nii-san gave me the advice to act on my feeling before someone else would take Haruna-chan from me, so I asked my friend Saruyama what he thought. It's always better to have others' opinions.

It's not like I'm avoiding confessing as long as possible. Definitely not true.

As of late, I'm trying to avoid being at home as much as possible. I'm not feeling comfortable with Lala-san being at home. It's not like she is not a good person, but I'm not good with girls overall. I always stutter and get easily embarrassed near them.

I should probably overcome this if I want to confess to Haruna-chan successfully.

Today was one of the days I spent with Saruyama, but it was time to return home.

In the last few days, Nii-san has changed slightly. He even started cooking. Was it to help Mikan at home?

While Nii-san tries to help at home, I lament over myself. Maybe I, too, should try to find something to help with. I sometimes forget because she is so mature, but Mikan is an elementary school student.

I returned home to meet someone new. Her name was Alme, and she was apparently Nii-san's second fiancé. She looked more like an alien than Lala-san, though but is it okay to have two fiancés? But I shouldn't put my nose into it. If they are happy, that's all that matters.

Alme and Lala got along really well, but sadly for them, Alme needed to return home. She lives with her brother here on Earth. Maybe it's because of Nii-san since she wants to be close to him.

Seeing Nii-san be in a relationship gave me the courage once again to try and confess to Haruna-chan.

Tomorrow for sure, I'll confess, and this time I'll be successful!

(Alme's pov)

Since Ryoto threatened me, I got this strange feeling above my crotch. Is this feeling a feeling of love? It's the first time I'm feeling it. I don't know what this feeling is, but I'm sure it's something good since it was because of Ryoto. Before, I wouldn't mind marrying Ryoto, but now I'm sure that my decision was correct.

The way he looked at me, ready to defend his partner, was amazing and how he looked at me afterward was equally fantastic.

That, however, raises another question. How do I make him like me? I already gave up the spot for a first wife, and I don't plan on giving up my position as a second wife.

I'm sure that Ryoto will have more partners in the future, so I need to fight for my position to stay where it is. And how do I do that? Make him like me!

The problem is I don't understand Earth culture well enough to know how to do it. On my home planet, all I would need to do was to hunt delicious food for him or let him win a fight against me, but I doubt it would work on him. Besides, I don't even know what is delicious here and what's not, that's why I'll ask someone who has ready been here for a while.

My brother!

(3rd pov)

The day was as ordinary as it could get. Mikan went to her school, and Ryoto, Rito, and Lala went to theirs.

However, it won't end as an ordinary for at least one of them.

Why? Because someone decided to test out some things.

Skipper: "Boys, today is the day we'll start some of our tests. As we know, Boss is not an ordinary person but is that true for the rest of his family?"

The shortest of the penguins raised his wing.

Private: "Why are we doing it, Skipper?"

Skipper: "Excellent question, Private! Basically, we want to know what they can do..."

Kowalski: "For science, of course!"

Answered the most enthusiastic of the group.

Skipper, obviously not so keen on the idea, continued his explanation.

Skipper: "Kowalski wants to test if Boss's abilities are genetic or not. While we could get their blood to do some tests but it's more fun- *Cough* I mean, we want to test the abilities in action, and according to Kowalski's scientific mumbo jumbo, it's better this way. We'll start with a weak-looking one! I'm betting he hides some kind of secret!"

Private: "But why would he do it?"

Skipper: "For a reason, every man and penguin hides things. To use it against others or to hide the weaknesses so they can't be used against him."

Private: "But if everyone could tell each other feelings, the world would be a better place."

Skipper: "..."

Skipper, while accustomed to Private's positivity, still was stunned from time to time by so-called naivety (stupidity).

Skipper: "Rico..."

*SLAP*

Rico slapped Private while laughing maniacally.

Skipper: "Thank you, Rico."

Skipper then turned to Private once again.

Skipper: "Remember it, Private, feelings are only for women and weak men, and we are neither women, weak or men!"

Utsu: "Woof!"

Skipper: "Don't you start that again, you furball! I know that you went to school a few times already, and you know its layout best of all of us here, so I would appreciate help from you."

Utsu: "Woof!"

Skipper: "That's too much for a guide-type job, don't you think?"

Utsu: "Woof!"

Skipper: "That could be arranged. You've got yourself a deal!"

They shook their paw/wing to finalize the deal they had just created.

Rico: "Kaboom?"

Skipper: "...Possibly."
