Fuck fuck fuck.
Inna clenched her teeth while she laid down on Raghnall's lap. With her body rigid and unmoving, the only way she could ever show her deep frustration was to glare at him.
Raghnall chuckled as he shrugged.
"Now, now. I only placed your head on my lap because the back of your head might get dirty when you try again to break free."
Inna rolled her eyes and proceeded to glare at him. She's been trying since forever but it's obviously impossible for her!
"Hey now, no need to look so murderous. It's not my fault you can't break it. So, until you can overcome this low-rank spell, I'm not allowing you to take a break."
It's already been a week since she started training with Raghnall but she regretted every second of it.
She thought that since they were friends, he would go easy on her.
But hell noooo…
This beautiful little shit immediately started drilling her with challenges that almost drained the life out of her.
Catching him using a blindfold while he's using a speed enhancing spell…
Memorizing a book of spells within ten minutes…
Casting those said memorized spells while being tickled…
Trying to go through barriers by manipulating magical particles while being distracted by food…
It was by far the most frustrating and tiresome week she ever had.
Now, what he's doing at the moment was testing her will power. Since she was able to overcome the curses for a short period of time back when she was poisoned, he wanted her to improve her immunity in case she couldn't nullify the curses using a spell.
So, he casted an immobilization curse on her whole body except for the upper half of her face to test her.
But this fucker wasn't even supposed to test her today because…
IT WAS THE MONTHLY PRAYER DAY!
It was supposed to be the day where everyone takes a break!
There were no classes and no duties to attend to and most of the people were either resting in their dorms or praying to the Supreme God.
The day was in a sense, a holiday for the whole nation. She learned from Raghnall that apparently, in this world, there were only six months in a year and sixty-one days in a month. And within those sixty-one days, the seventh day is treated as a day dedicated to prayer.
The only thing she found similar was that one week was still seven days; it's just that there were eight to nine weeks in one month.
But still, to think they only had one day for a break.
At first, she was shocked since how the hell was she supposed to work for like, the whole year and only have six days to rest?
But now, what she wants at the moment was to just make the most out of her break.
Yet a certain someone was currently robbing her of that right.
"Mmmph!!! Mph! Fphhhh!"
Inna spoke through her clamped mouth that just refused to cooperate.
After trying to move her mouth for a few minutes, she sighed and gave up.
She's really just too tired for this fucking shit.
She growled internally as she closed her eyes in defeat.
Because of the huge stack of homework that her professors gave her to do during the 'break,' she slept really late last night, well if she can still call sleeping at six in the morning on the next day as 'last night.'
But then, to her frustration, she got woken up from her lovely sleeping session and was forced to get out of her house at two in the afternoon to get ambushed by this little fucker.
To say that she was pissed was an understatement.
But she can't even complain because she's stuck with this stupid spell.
She sighed again.
Since this is obviously going to take long, she might as well catch up on her sleep.
So, with her eyes closed, she figured to just take a short nap instead of wasting what's little left of her energy trying to break the spell.
Raghnall saw her eyes were closed and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in surprise.
Was she seriously sleeping? Right now?
…when she's supposed to be using all she's got to break free?
Or did she just lose all her motivation on fighting for what's left of her all-day break?
Raghnall noticed that her breathing was slowly becoming even and he couldn't help but sigh. He checked the time and was slightly shocked when he read it.
Hmmmm... Guess they've been training for two hours now. Which meant that she's been unable to break free for two hours.
Could she still break the spell?
He saw Inna's forehead crease in discomfort and he figured she must be feeling chilly.
If she's going to continue sleeping here, she might get sick from the chilly weathe. After all, they're out in the open at the lawn with only trees surrounding them at the sixteenth hour of the day so the chances of her catching a cold would be high right now.
So out of concern, he grabbed his spatial pouch to try and search for something that can cover her up. He tried his hardest not to move much since Inna's head was on his lap but after finding nothing that could be useful and feeling himself shiver slightly from the cold gust of wind that suddenly passed them by, Raghnall knew he couldn't delay anymore.
He softly lifted Inna's head and placed her gently on the grass as he went inside the house to search for a comfy blanket.
But little did he know…
Inna opened her left eye as she tried to look around whether she was successful or not.
Dang, she felt bad for taking advantage of Raghnall's kindness but she seriously needed a break.
Well, at least she's using what she learned in practice.
She closed her eyes as she tried to detect the magical particles that belonged to Raghnall's body.
He's still searching on the second floor, huh.
Using all of her might and desperation towards running away, she thought again and again on how she badly wanted to continue her break and she used the power of her thoughts, and her physical prowess as well, to force the spell to break. And after a few moments, just as Raghnall was going down the stairs, she can finally feel her legs moving.
Her hands were stick stuck to her sides, unmoving, but she's willing to take whatever she can get at this point. So, with the strength and mobility of her legs back, she hoisted herself upward and within a heartbeat, she ran as fast as she could away from her dorm.
Raghnall felt something was wrong and when he peered from the window, he wasn't surprised when he saw that Inna disappeared.
And instead, a cloud of dust was in her place.
Raghnall clicked his tongue as he clenched the blanket he had on his hand.
Really, he doesn't know whether to feel pissed at Inna tricking him or to feel proud that she was able to actually get away with it.
So, with a sigh, he placed the blanket back to its original place as he went to chase after her.
