The Devil WithInn 109 First Day Of Classes 3

Anemolian Laws?

Social Morals??

Etiquette???

Inna laughed nervously.

"Hey, you do know that I was just joking on what I said, right?"

Raghnall held in his laughter as he saw her chickening out.

"What? You're taking back what you said? What happened to the confidence earlier?"

Inna glared at him.

"I'm not into fighting battles I can't win."

"So, you do admit that you're dumber than me."

Inna's eyes narrowed at the word.

"I never said I was dumber than you! I'm just saying that it's unfair!"

Raghnall's ears perked up at the statement.

"And why is it unfair? Girls are usually the most knowledgeable about this sort of topic. It's been drilled to them since they were born in Anemoly."

"That's the thing! I wasn't born in—"

Inna's eyes widened as she tried to cover up her slip of tongue.

"—a great house! Ha ha ha…"

Raghnall's eyes squinted as he noticed her poor attempt of a cover up. He was about to bring it up when Inna cut him off.

"Why are you here anyways?"

Raghnall looked at her as if she was stupid.

"Didn't I say that most of my cla.s.ses are optional? Aside from when the Veteran teachers teach us, attendance is not usually checked nor needed. And since that's the case, skipping is something natural for us."

"No, that's not what I meant! I meant, why here! In the Essential Body Foundations for Magic subject! This is a beginner subject!"

Raghnall yawned slightly.

"I was bored so I figured to drop by and say h.e.l.lo to my crazy lil' Ninny."

Inna rolled her eyes at his endearing statement.

"And how did you even find me? I don't remember ever showing my schedule to you?"

Raghnall gave her a flat look.

"Do you really think I wouldn't be able to know? Only freshmen that are in low ranked cla.s.ses would have one subject of the basics. That is for them to learn things they might have possibly missed while training. Because some believe that there might be something wrong being done during training that's why their apt.i.tudes are quite low in the academy's standards."

"And what does that have to do with me?"

"You are the lowest cla.s.s and the weakest student in the history of Eldora Academy. It wouldn't take two to figure out that your schedule will consist of all the basic and beginner cla.s.ses in the whole academy."

Inna still couldn't shake the feeling of something fishy.

"But how did you know that I'll attend this cla.s.s during this time?"

Raghnall looked at her with a smirk in his face.

"Secret…"

"You little sh—! "

Inna was about to make him spill it out when she heard a rough and loud cough.

'You two…" The teacher looked at both of them with irritation in his eyes. "… I would like it if you were to cease your loud ramblings during my lecture. It is quite rude and unbecoming of students in this academy to interrupt a teacher. I am warning you now, but if I ever see you both disturbing my lecture again, I would have no choice but to take it up to the Head Elders regarding your disruptive behaviours."

Inna gulped and sat rigid in her seat as she tried to hide the embarra.s.sment from her face. At the same time, the rest of the room proceeded to look at her in annoyance.

When the teacher finally resumed his lecture, Inna ignored everyone's gazes and glared at Raghnall.

"You t.w.a.t!" She hissed in a soft voice, afraid to catch the teacher's attention again.

"Another test will be held tomorrow, around the 12th hour so prepare yourself. He he he." Raghnall snickered in amus.e.m.e.nt.

"I told you I was just joking! There's no way I'm taking that test!"

"But, you already agreed!"

"Did you ever hear the words 'I agree' coming from my mouth?!"

"Uh…" Raghnall thought back in their conversation. "No—"

"Then there you have it! I did not agree, hence, I am not liable to whatever bets that have been made."

Raghnall gritted his teeth. Dang, he wanted to see a good show but she actually outwitted him!

"Well, it seems that our little Ninny here is too much of a coward to do it."

"Say what you want, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d. I'm not budging."

She muttered as she tried to busy herself by doodling on her papers.

"Oh, so you're finally admitting that you can't do it?"

Despite hearing his taunting, Inna kept her composure as she drew out little stick men on the sides of her paper.

"I'm not taking a test for something I don't even give a s.h.i.+t about."

Raghnall finally smirked.

"Oh, then, does that mean that you wouldn't want the privilege points with it?"

"Privilege what?"

Inna hastily turned her head to look at Raghnall quickly.

Privilege points...?

"They're points you get for taking a really difficult task. It's like a way of encouraging students to aim higher and such. The number of points depends on the result of that difficult task and even if you failed, as long as it's higher than the usual standards of your original cla.s.s, then you'll still earn points. So whether you fail or not in that Rose-cla.s.s test, you'll still earn them anyways."

Inna furrowed her brows.

"And why would I want these 'privilege points'?"

With this, Raghnall placed his arm on the table as he rested his chin above it. Looking up in a mischievous manner, he smirked charmingly.

"Because, my dear, if you'll earn enough of these points…"

Inna stared at him in antic.i.p.ation and curiousity.

"…then you'll be able to skip cla.s.ses."
