Chapter 166 The Combat Department 3 (1/2)
Inna found blending in to be easier and less tiring so she decided to enter Orion's room.
Now, as she stood inside a room with five men, she couldn't help but remember the days where they had sleepovers at their shared dorm room. Well, technically it was Stuart's but Kevin, Bob, and Inna slowly claimed it as theirs as well. After all, he had a whole corner room originally to himself and usually that room was famously known, aside from being special and expensive, to be spacious that it can hold up to six people so Inna and the two minions never felt shame when they invited themselves in from time to time. But being the only female, the only way Inna could ever enter was to sneak in. And miraculously, she was never caught despite how often she decided to sleep over.
But she never would've guessed that, despite her perfect art of sneaking back when she was alive, she would one day get caught in such an embarrassing way; with her head stuck in the wall.
With that realization, she can only hide her face in shame, secretly grateful that the minions weren't there to see her fail.
If they were, she can already see their faces contorting into obnoxious expressions as they tease her about it.
Orion saw that Inna was starting to redden so he couldn't help but release a throaty laugh.
”Don't worry. We won't tell anyone.”
Hearing Orion, the other guys snickered as they recalled the ridiculous event. Orion coughed to signal them to stop laughing before he spoke.
”So, what brings you here? And care to explain how you got stuck?”
Inna breathed deeply as she tried to control her redness and nervousness.
”I, uh, I got lost and I uhh--”
”Man, Orion, we don't wanna know that stuff! What we do wanna know is this young lady's name.”
On the left of her, a man that had black hair with facial features that eerily resembled Ezra Miller looked at her with glistening dark brown eyes as he spoke with a wide smile.
”Hey, I'm Irizo by the way. I was the one who won against this guy earlier. The loud explosive sound you heard earlier was me flipping this guy to defeat.”
He pointed at Orion as he puffed his already huge chest.
Inna decided to reply while internally thanking Irizo for momentarily changing the subject.
”Oh, I'm In..Nana. Call me Nana.”
They reminded her so much of her old gang that she somehow wanted them to use her nickname. Besides, if she wanted to hide, saying she's Inna or Ingrid would be a bad idea anyway.
Meanwhile, to her left, a man huffed in ridicule as he glared at Irizo with his grey eyes. He held features similar to Orion's, only that his hair was a darker shade and his eyes were a bit slanted.
A twin?
Inna couldn't help but look between the two guys.
Then she noticed that his eyebrows seemed to furrow as he spoke with irritation in his tone.
”Shut up, baby zozo. You only won because my brother was teaching you while doing it. If he wasn't so preoccupied with babying you, he would've easily flipped you twice.”
All the men except Irizo laughed at that while Irizo just rolled his eyes and diverted his attention back to Inna.
He inched closer to her enthusiastically as he fluttered his eyelashes.
”So, Nana, say, what kind of food do you like?”
Orion narrowed his eyes at Irizo as he growled out in warning.
”Irizo, you have a…”
Irizo held up both his hands as he chuckled.
”Hey, I'm just being friendly with our guest here. I've been stuck with only men for the past week so could you blame me if I wanted to talk to the other gender for a change?”
Orion wanted to reply back but the chuckles of the men around made him slightly nod in understanding.
Meanwhile, after giving it much thought, Inna answered with conviction.
”Steak!”
The men made a grunt as they all agreed.
