14 The Crazy Plan (2/2)

Now is the time Linri thought. While dodging he purposely made a slip up and one of the punches connected with his face. Linri stepped back a little. 'Damn that really hurts' that was the exact thought in his mind. Still now that it already came up to this point he was not just gonna quit halfway.

”Hahaha did you see that! He must be getting tried. Keep hitting him boys!!” shouted Punk 3.

This time Linri didnt even try to dodge as he took all their punches and kicks head on. It was really painful but he had to endure this for his 'perfect' plan.

After being brutally beaten Linri finally gave in fall down. The punks kicked him a little and left. At the end of the day they were trying to teach him a lesson not kill him. They also had a new found respect for this little guy. They all knew that they wouldn't be able to hang under the assault of 3 guys as much as he did.

”This should be a lesson to you kid. Don't bark to the wrong tree when you are trying to show off in front of your girlfriend” said Punk 1 and they left just like that.

Linri got up and spat a mouthful of blood to the ground. His plan worked 'perfectly'.

”Kasaix are you out of your fucking mind? Why did you provoke them. I didn't even notice them so this was excessive. And to top it off you didn't even use your ability. Are you trying to die!” Jaime was scolding Linri while helping him sit down. She was wiping the blood off of his face with some napkins she had taken out of her backpack.

Jaime had watched the whole ordeal from the start to finish. At first she really thought Linri was going to beat them up seeing him dodging left and right but suddenly he started to stop fighting back. He didn't even use his ability. He could have just encased them in ice if he wanted. So if he was not going to use it what was even the point of having abilities.

Seeing her question Linri couldn't help but snicker.

”Ability? Spark don't tell me you didn't even read my background” said Linri sarcastically.

”Of course I did! You were just a normal person till you were 15 and you met with some gods- Ah!” a sudden realization suddenly hit Jaime.

”You - You haven't met them yet!” Jaime couldn't help but raising her voice again. She became even more confused. She also remembered now that he didn't use his fire when she attacked him with her sword. Back then she didn't thought about it much and just thought that Linri didn't want to hurt her with his fire.

”Ding Ding Ding we have a winner *cough* currently I am just your normal everyday teenager.” Linri couldn't help but answer sarcastically again. He was in pain right now so he wasn't really thinking about what he was saying or if it might hurt the person before him. Thankfully currently Jaime was occupied with tending to his wounds.

”Wait why did you even provoke them in the first place then?” Jaime asked the question that was eating her mind right now. This half dead guy sitting in front of him was definitely crazy. That was the only thought she had.

”For you of course!” Linri gave a smirk to Jaime

”Didn't you hear! I wasn't even bothered with them and I especially hate people who try to show off” said Jaime angrily. What was he even thinking. Did he really think that if he were to stand up to some perverts he was magically going to win her heart? Just what the hell!

”Wow wow wow. Slow down cowboy it was not because of that. Just help me up and I will tell you about my 'perfect' plan on the way.” said Linri and stretched his arm towards her.

Jaime helped him got up and let him lean against her while they were walking to Linri's house. If he could not give a reasonable explanation she was going to beat him herself. Just who did this guy think he is!

”You see I told you that you can stay in my house right. For that we needed a reasonable explanation. We could have made something up but my parents are too smart for that. So we needed a 'perfect' cover up plan for that. Because if they search your background they would see that there was no way we could have met naturally and me asking you to stay at my house. When I saw the punks looking at you immediately the 'perfect' plan formed inside my head. You are the damsel in distress hit on by some thugs and I am the knight in shining armor who came to save you. Considering I have never fought before they would obviously beat me up. So after they left I would ask you about your situation and afterwards would invite you to stay with us for some time. Since I was also beaten by the thugs this would also give me a reason to ask my father for self defence lessons. You being the headstrong girl you are, also want to learn since you dont want to implicate people. Also the reason for you not being able to go back your place is some Mafia guy took interest in you and want to take you as his concubine. That's why you left your place with only your necessities and your family heirloom sword. See isn't that the perfect plan?” said Linri while giving Jaime a smug look.

Jaime stopped walking in the middle of the explanation. This guy had just let himself beaten up just to provide a home for her. If she said she wasn't moved a little that would be a lie a very huge lie. Suddenly the beat up guy in front of her didn't look so bad any more. It could even be said that he looked handsome a little. She was also amazed by his thought process. Not a normal guy would be able to think that far ahead in that instant. There were literally no loopholes in his plan. If the fight had become dangerous he could have also dodged again with his attributes. Still there was something wrong with his head that she couldn't just figure out. At that point she pressed her hand against his forehead.

”Weird. Temperature looks normal. You also dont seem to be suffering from a head concussion. Now tell me in which world you are living that's a 'perfect' plan? That's a through and through 'crazy' plan. Hmpf! I am not going to waste my time talking to you. Now lead the way.” said Jaime.

”As you command my lady. Ouch. Watch it, watch it I am still wounded remember”

On the way back to Linri's home there was a question constantly ringing through Jaime's mind. 'Just who are you Kasaix?'
