Note:
*I'm truly sorry but I can only release one chapter today due to some problems. But I promise to drop the next chapter tomorrow.*

"Revenge?" Himari asked with a perplexed look on her face.

"You must take a beating from my babe if you want to be forgiven for what you did."

Himari's expression grew worse. "A beating?"

Rin revealed a devilish grin. "If this was the olden days, you'd have been beaten to death by now. But don't worry. My babe won't beat you to death."

When the people watching heard this, they nodded in agreement with what Rin said.

She deserved this punishment.

Himari bit her lip and replied reluctantly. "Alright, I accept."

"Great." Rin smiled and then whispered to one of her girls. "Go get him. Tell him that the bitch is here." After she said that the girl left the vicinity.

After a while, a boy with a bat is seen running and shouting furiously.

"You bitch! You dare show yourself after what you've done."

The boy appeared to be Shuji. And he was not happy.

Himari's face became pale as she noticed Shuji. She braced herself preparing for the beating.

And as expected, when Shuji was near Himari, he slapped her furiously. That slap caused Himari to fall to the ground.

"Are you happy now?! You tormented and toyed with me then dropped me like trash. I'm going to make you pay!" Shuji declared.

Himari was in pain but that didn't mean she wasn't annoyed with Shuji's statement.

She caught him cheating first but he's accusing her of toying and tormenting. She couldn't accept that.

"I should be saying that to you! You played me! And you lied to everyone about it. Ah!" Before Himari could finish her statement, she was slapped once more.

"You still have the guts to talk."

Himari looked at Shuji with disgust.

"What's with that expression on your face, huh?" Shuji snapped.

"I've had enough." Shuji raised the stick in his hand. "I'm gonna mess you up." Shuji then pointed to her legs. "I'm gonna make sure you can never walk to another guy's house ever again."

As Shuji said this, he hit Himari on the leg with the bat. Himari screamed her lungs out. The pain was so unbearable and the fact that she was sick made matters direr. Shuji didn't stop, he continued hitting Himari's leg with the bat.

Each time the bat landed on Himari's leg, she'd let out a dreadful shriek. Instead of helping, the people watching seemed to be amused.

They enjoyed seeing the useless bitch get what she deserved. Out of everyone there, the one enjoying themselves the most was Shuji. He had a devilish smile on his face each time Himari screamed.

The bat had a little blood on it from Himari's leg. But that didn't stop Shuji, he continued pounding Himari's leg with a devilish smile on his face.

Himari was already feeling dizzy because of the pain. She thought she was dying because her vision was getting blurry. As she was gradually losing consciousness, she remembered something from her childhood.

...

A boy smiled and then said.
"I promise when you need help, I'll be there for you."

...

Tears rolled down Himari's cheeks as she recalled that memory.
"Aki, please save me." She prayed quietly.

Himari was losing consciousness gradually. The pain was too much for her to bear.

This is it. My life is finished.

Himari closed her eyes giving up. Just then, the beating suddenly stopped. Himari opened her eyes, she was shocked by what she saw.

Shuji was being choked by a guy with black hair. But the guy seemed familiar. When Himari's vision became clearer, she finally noticed who it was.

It was Murine San!

Jurou was seriously angry. He was so angry that his pupils could not be seen. After choking Shuji for a while, he slammed the bastard hard on the pavement. The impact caused Shuji to spit blood.

"What do you think you are doing, Mister Murine?" Rin said in shock.

When did he get here?

"I could ask you the same thing. Why are you just standing there as your servant is being abused? " Jurou said in a cold tone.

"That's none of your business. I do whatever I want. Now, you better not interfere or you'll regret it." Rin said with authority.

Rin was more powerful than Jurou. Jurou is indeed from a rich family but he can't be compared to Rin's.

Instead of backing off, Jurou said. "It is you who would regret it if you don't stop. I'm going to say this once. Leave Miss Fujioka alone." Jurou said in a ferocious tone.

"And what will happen if I don't?"

"I'll make you pay," Jurou said with a malicious aura emanating from him.

Rin just scoffed and said. "I refuse."

Rin was not shaken by Jurou's threats. She's more powerful than him, why should she fear him?

"You had your chance. Now, you're gonna see the true me."

Just then, the aura emanating from Jurou changed from malicious to overwhelming. Even the people watching shook a little.

Then, Jurou blinked his right eye twice. Suddenly, his right pupil glitched out and then formed a symbol of a skull on fire.

When the people surrounding them saw the symbol in his eye, they immediately trembled. Even Rin was shaking.

Shit! We messed with the wrong person!

Jurou just placed his hands in his pocket and then stood upright emitting an aura of sovereignty.

"Allow me to reintroduce myself. My name is Akira Watanabe. The successor of the Watanabe clan."

Akira walked closer to the horrified Rin. "And you've just offended me."
