The Neighborhood High School Girl, Miss Isezaki, Is the Great Saintess Returned from Another World~ And I, Suddenly Awakened as Her Exclusive Mana Supply Uncle, Travel Between Earth and Another World with Time-Space Magic~ - 35. Back Alley

35. Back Alley

“Gyah! Don’t pull my arm like that! You’ll stretch my clothes!”

“Just come on already!”

Resisting futilely, the woman was being dragged away by the enraged man. On the other side of the alley, a moody and glamorous building came into view. This wasn’t good.

“Um, excuse me?”

I couldn’t help but call out. The man and woman turned around in response to my voice.

“Oh, Senpai!”

It was indeed Aihara. I approached them with a slight bow.

“Um… So, she’s my former junior… Did we cause you any trouble?”

“Hey! Why are you assuming that I caused trouble?”

“Shut up and stay out of this!”

I scolded the noisy Aihara, and the man glared at me.

“…Hey, old man. We’re about to go somewhere nice. Don’t get in the way, or I’ll kill you, got it?”

The man swayed his body towards me. I didn’t realize it before, but he’s taller and more muscular than me. With those big arms of his, I felt like I’d get knocked out with one punch.

…However, I don’t feel that scared. Perhaps it’s because I’ve been chased by scarier guys in another world, but this doesn’t seem so frightening.

“It’s just a little dispute between a man and a woman. It’s none of your business, old man. Understand? Huh?”

After showing off his little toy, the man smirked mockingly at me.

―Seeing that, I somehow felt relieved. I felt like I could handle this.

I let out a small sigh and averted my gaze from the man. Then, looking up at the narrow night sky visible from the alley, I shouted:

“Oh! What’s that!?”

“Huh?”

Even the man looked up―the Storage.

I created a pocket dimension directly above the man and ejected a large amount of water from it. In the next moment, the man was drenched with a waterfall-like rush of water.

“Ugh!”

Caught off guard by the sudden deluge, the man staggered, holding his head.

“Hey, let’s go!”

Grabbing Aihara’s wrist, who was standing dumbfounded behind me, I dashed towards the main street.

“Hey, wait, you!”

Though it’s just water, the hesitant man soon tried to chase after us―

“Oh! What’s that!?”

“Shut up, I’ll kill you!”

This time, the man didn’t look up. But even without looking up, a pocket dimension opened above him―and this time, a electric kettle fell from it.

*Thunk!*

The electric kettle hit the man’s head directly. And with its momentum, the lid of the kettle popped open.

“Ahh! Hot hot hot hot hot hot hot hot hot hot hot hot hot hot!!”

Scalded by the boiling water inside, the man fell to the ground, writhing in pain. It’s a bit pitiful, but it’s self-defense, right? Surely.

“Huh? Huh?! Huh?!”

Seeing this, Aihara looked around in confusion, looking up and down.

“Come on, let’s go!”

I forcefully pulled Aihara’s arm, and we hurriedly ran from the alley to the main street.
