The Devil WithInn 86 I'll Let You Hit Me

She was seriously excited to find someone who suffered the same fate!

But to think that the insensitive p.r.i.c.k would instead call her 'crazy', she felt like crushing something with her bare hands!

But he was some big-shot high cla.s.s rich kid so she decided to vent it in something else.

And, since Raghnall was the closest and the safest to hit, she instinctively lashed out on him.

But before she could do it, Raghnall felt the impending doom so he decided to immediately run away from her.

But he didn't realize that if he left, it would result to someone else becoming the victim.

So, because Frode was behind him and he was a tad bit shorter than Raghnall, his shoulder received the destructive blow from Inna.

Then suddenly, the two teams heard the sound of something popping before a shrill voice of a girl sounded out.

It all happened in a blink of an eye that everyone who witnessed it hadn't truly processed what happened.

And that includes Inna as well.

What the f.u.c.k just happened?

I didn't even use much force but to think that it would result to something destructive like this?!

She looked at her hand with wide eyes before looking at Frode clutching his shoulder in pain.

Raghnall saw the surprise in Inna's eyes and decided to act quickly.

He casted a healing spell and popped Frode's dislocated shoulder back in place before the rest of his teammates could figure out what's happening.

Then, he casted a 'spatial cube' spell on the three of them as he slowly approached Inna.

"Woman! Are you deliberately trying to kill people?! How many times should I tell you to keep your strength in check?!"

Then he went over to Frode to see if he had any problems aside from the dislocated shoulder. Seeing that there was nothing else, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He then gazed at Inna seriously.

"Remember! This guy is a Watcher! 'YOUR WATCHER' to be exact."

Raghnall pointed at the clueless man as he began to slightly raise his voice.

"And please, for heaven's sake, remember his background! HIS PRECIOUS BACKGROUND! He's not the same as the common people! He's a high cla.s.s n.o.ble!"

Feeling that Inna still didn't get it, he figured to hiss the words one by one.

"HE. IS. A. HIGH. CLa.s.s. n.o.bLE."

"If you harm him, the academy can expel you immediately, no questions asked."

Raghnall sighed heavily again as he ma.s.saged his temples.

He never tried anything as draining as taking care of her. He truly felt like an overworked servant. In fact, he felt like he worked harder than any of the servants in his manor. And that's saying a lot considering his background.

After a few seconds, he looked over and saw Inna's cute pouting sad face so he decided to end his lecture.

Inna saw that he was finished his nagging so she figured it was her turn to speak.

"Look, I was supposed to hit you!"

Raghnall looked at her incredulously.

Hit me?! HOW IS THAT ANY BETTER?!

He was about to lash out but then he remembered that she didn't know his background at all. So, technically, he's the safest to hit since he's a commoner.

With that realization, he sighed again.

"Can you stop that instinctive response of hitting me?! I swear, not even my parents have hit me as much as you did in just a span of a few hours! You're lucky I got these boys to shield me."

"These 'boys'?" Inna looked at him with confusion.

As a reply, Raghnall raised up the sleeves in his arm and began to flex it, revealing taut and solid muscles.

"Yep. These boys."

He smirked at her while Inna's face scrunched up.

"You are disgusting."

But despite saying that, Inna stared at them.

I mean, it wouldn't hurt to look now, would it?

She said to herself as she discreetly stole glances.

But no matter how discreet she was, Raghnall already knew what she was doing so he inwardly laughed to himself.

Suddenly, Inna realized, after watching Raghnall closely, that he always tried saving her in difficult situations despite being friends for mere hours. She felt warmth in her heart as she softly smiled.

She looked back in her first day in college when she felt that same warmth. It was when she met Bob and their group for the first time. After meeting them, she felt like there was actually a group of people in the same world that can accept her for being eccentric, crazy, and frank. They made her feel like she didn't have to wear a mask around them, nor does she need to watch her words and actions. She felt like they truly accepted everything about her, the good and the bad.

Those feelings and that warmth she felt before is strangely the same with how she felt now with Raghnall. Now, she realized that she can truly trust this arrogant but beautiful man.

Then, as if something finally sunk in, Inna drowned in her thoughts as she gazed at Raghnall with a serious expression.

"I may not act like I did, but I truly get it. I'll try to hold myself back from lashing out. I have a bit of anger management issues but I'll persevere. I mean, if I don't, I'll most likely get expelled from this school or be ganged upon by those pesky stuck-up people, right?"

Ragnall was slightly surprised from the sudden shift in mood but nevertheless, he was fairly happy with the things she said.

"It's just that… uhhh... If I bottle it all up, there will surely be a time where I can't take anymore.... So, if I ever feel like I am close to bursting, what should I do?"

Inna looked at Raghnall for help before lowering her head.

Back in her days, whenever someone p.i.s.sed her off, she actually still thinks before acting. But then, if they deliberately picked a fight with her, she would always retaliate. Because she knew that if she lets it go, more people would end up picking on her, thinking that she wouldn't fight back. That's why in the schools she studied in, almost everyone knew her either as a violent person or someone that occasionally gets into fights.

But truthfully, all she wanted was people not to mind her. To just leave her be and let her live her life. But there are just some people in those schools that loves to pick fights on the 'weak-looking' ones, or the one who had 'issues' in their lives. They label and they make fun of those people both in secret and out in the open. So, with all these people, Inna couldn't really enjoy a peaceful school life.

Raghnall saw her distressed expression so, as a comforting gesture, he softly patted her lowered head.

"Then, at those times…."

"If you really really can't hold back your anger anymore…"

"And if you're really close to bursting, then..."

"I'll let you hit me with all you've got…"
