The Devil WithInn 184 Making Her Move

Knowing that the tournament they've been waiting for was drawing near, Inna couldn't help but feel melancholic as she recalled the days of her suffering.

After that incident of her running away and refusing to remove the bangle, she trained so hard with Raghnall that it somehow felt like he was taking his revenge on her slowly.

He had her running laps around the dorm with a blindfold…

She had to eat her lunch using magic and no hands…

And she even tried to cast spells with a gag on her mouth.

She didn't know how the heck she was able to do all of them but somehow, through Raghnall's guidance, she was able to perform them easily that she even felt that she could actually win the tournament.

But one thing that irked her was the looks Raghnall shot to her bangle every time he sees her wear it. But aside from the night where he first saw it, he no longer freaked out and pestered her about removing it despite her wearing it every time they train.

But Inna still somewhat respected his words so she didn't wear the bangle anywhere outside the dorm's vicinity.

But she still wore it at any chance she gets inside the dorms because who wouldn't want to wear such a pretty bangle?

And that's the best compromise she can give to Raghnall who refused to tell her anything about the bangle or the reason why he wanted her to remove it.

So, as the days pa.s.sed, she didn't worry about the whole bangle issue anymore.

Instead, her worries are being placed elsewhere. In fact, in the past few days, what she's more worried about was the increasing craftiness of the way she was being bullied.

Back then, they were just talking bad about her and doing minor stupid things like trying to hit her 'accidentally' or pouring liquids on her.

And if it were to be back in her own world, she'd be thoroughly p.i.s.sed. But now that she's got magic, she couldn't really care less.

Hitting her made them the one being bruised instead from her using enhancement magic to increase the st.u.r.diness of her already st.u.r.dy body.

And the weird liquids that they poured on her to stain her clothes and wet her hair were easily taken care of by her cleaning spell.

But all of a sudden, Inna noticed that things quickly escalated into a nearly intolerable level.

They literally hara.s.s her at any chance.

Some would cast curses on her secretly like making her blind, asleep, cold, or even suffocated. If it weren't for Raghnall's training, she wouldn't be able to break free from the curses they frequently send her way. But she couldn't break them all the time so sometimes, she used her acting skills and her skilled mouth to act normal which irritated and confused the caster beyond relief.

But it didn't stop on just that, some would even use magical circles to set up spell traps on where she would walk. Fortunately, Inna mastered the ability to sense magical particles so she'd immediately know that there's a magic spell in the area when she sees a huge concentration of magical particles.

So when they see that magic doesn't work, some would even go so far as to try and sneakily push her off dangerous places like the stairs. Thankfully, she was able to move fast enough to steady herself before she could fall down.

And from all the sudden hara.s.sment happening around her all at once, Inna couldn't help but feel like someone was behind it all.

So when she first realized it, she tried telling professors about it but it seems like they don't like her very much either. And much to her frustration, the professors ruled it off as either her trying to ruin someone's reputation, or she was just trying to annoy them with lies.

Ulima tried to help her by trying his best to investigate it but he told her not to keep her hopes up. After all, although the last occurrence was years ago, bullying someone from the Lily cla.s.s can be something considered normal to the students. And even if she were to find out who that so-called mastermind behind all it, there's nothing she can do except know his or her ident.i.ty.

But the real 'mastermind' wasn't fully involved in Inna's hara.s.sment. Alana was currently stuck in her room, grumbling as she clutched on her lower abdomen. She clenched her teeth as she rolled around on her bed.

If it wasn't for her Blood Week starting, she would've been able to see the fruits of her efforts. She tasked her 'friends' or more like her followers to coerce other students to play a secret game.

The game was simple.

Whoever can make the idiot lily girl cry will win the game.

And the prize was a favor that Alana would grant with her a.s.sets.

And since Alana was one of the most influential families in Anemoly, sure enough almost everyone from their batch began to join in on the fun.

But on the morning of the start of the game, Alana suddenly had her bleeding. So, she had no choice but to abide by the rules she knew well.

After all, unmarried women were prohibited from meeting with men whenever they are on their Blood Week since some men are sensitive to blood mixed with potent magical particles that came from the woman's body that was scattered into the air. And once exposed, they sometimes go into either a wrathful or l.u.s.tful frenzy.

Women, however, due to them slowly getting used to the exposure, can withstand it. Though, there will be instances where they sometimes get affected as well especially when their health is weak.

So, with the order of her prefect, Alana was locked inside her room for a week, only having female friends send her meals and her necessities.

Suffering from the pain of her painful bleeding, Alana gritted her teeth. She decided to sleep to distract herself from the pain. But the moment she closed her eyes, she just started remembering him.

Raghnall.

The past months, she's been trying to get him alone. She wanted to talk to him. She wanted to know why he was here. She wanted to get to know him better.

But that girl…

That idiot girl just wouldn't seem to let him go!

She's always with him!

Tailing him! Following him! Smiling at him!

And even touching him!

She doesn't deserve someone like him.

She doesn't deserve to be even near him.

But when she found out that they've actually been meeting in the Lily dorms every day after lunch, Alana knew that she could no longer stand still.

Just a few more days…

When the week ends, she'll finally be able to make her move.
