Chapter 25: The Game(2)
Ella was another capture target, she might not have much when it came to strength but her innate ability gave her a high intelligence
she was the right hand girl of Carmel, when it came to planning, organization and everything else there was none that could beat her
after entering the room i was starred on by countless eyes, it was as if i was a rare specimen,i got gooseb.u.mps on my body
Looking at my front I could see the girls behind Carmel, if my guess was right then they would be using projection magic to display themselves here
The chess board in front of me might be using some magical connection to the chessboard in front of them, when I make a move the move would be done on their side to
Its just like playing chess on the computer with your friend, except it this being on a higher level, while I was running the magical theories in my head a voice was heard
Nora dont you know the rules, no boys allowed
a voice was heard from one of the screens, i couldnt see the figure but i could guess that she was an important person
i know but i am not inviting him to join plus he is my brother

Nora replied defiantly
Nora are you sure he can help us win?
Olivia asked her doubt, after all she didnt know that this cousin of hers was such a talent in chess
affirmative, i am sure
Olivia then looked towards me who was looking around as if i had no idea whats going on but i did get the gist of whats happening
looks like this is the perfect opportunity to show off
whats happening here big sis?
i raised my doubt, after that Nora explained to me what happened and what i had to do
so i should defeat this big sis in chess
i said looking towards Ella
thats right
Nora nodded but insted of her expectation of me agreeing i did something else
but why should i help?
my question brought about a silence to the room, the previously uninterested girls started paying attention, after all this was the first time that they heard someone say no to them
umm?, so you are saying you wont help me?
Olivia asked intrigued instead of angry
welli can help but sis you know what you might have to give me
hearing my words my sister went silent but then she spoke
1 weeks worth
2 weeks worth, then we are done
i directly said my price causing her to flinch but after thinking about it a bit she finally agreed
fine you can have my 2 weeks worth of sweet
hearing that i gave a pose of success and moved to play the game but then Olivia spoke
so you are saying that you wont do what i want for free?
why should i?
Hearing the same answer it should have made Olivia angry but somehow instead she was feeling happy
it really is a different experience to be rejected
+35 affection
humph.girl i know you inside out
instead of focusing more on Nora i move to Ella sitting in front of me whose expression had turned for the worse
kid do you really think that you can beat me?
i shrugged my shoulders and gave her a smile
who knows?
after that we sat to play the game she made the first move, like this we continued to move our pieces, several of the girls had thier concentration on the game
it continued for 15 minutes before i placed the final piece
checkmate
silence.
everybody had a disbelieving face on them, especially Ella she couldnt understand where she went wrong
ho-how?
your too perfect
my reply caught her off gaurd, everyone looked towards me, waiting for me to continue
each of your moves are strict or rule following as if its predetermined, theres no uniqueness within it hence they create cracks in your plan
because your too perfect there is no flexibility, hence you loose
it was silent for a moment before a slapping sound came, everyone turned towards Carmel who was clapping with a smile on her face
amazing, it really was an amazing game
Nora, i lost this one
after she said that others also started clapping along with her who marveled at my performance, my sister came to me and ruffled my hair
i knew you would win, my sweets are not wasted after all
that was amazing Austin, i owe you one
Olivia interjected
at that moment Ella stood up and came to me, she was just a projection and couldnt do anything to me, she came in front of me and pointed her finger
your name is Austin right?, i will remember you, the next time we have a match i will win for sure
after that she disappeared
dont take her word to heart shes just compet.i.tive
Carmel spoke up
i am really surprised that there is such a chess genius here, i hope to meet personally in the future
after that she went in to speak with the others while i was quickly thrown out of the room, shaking my head i walked back to my a.s.signed room
fight Ella in chess the next time?, Id probably lose
the only reason won against her this time was becuase of my information from the game, in fact it was one of the prerequisites to win her affection
there was personally a flaw in her gaming style which the players muat use to win against her i had just used that, though it will only work once
tired i entered my room and feel asleep
the next day after the party me and my family set out to return to our home, i received a gift from both the Emperor and Olivia
currently we were standing near out s.h.i.+p getting ready to leave the Emperor and Empress had come to leave us off
have a safe trip sis, if you have any problem just inform me okay?
sure, you dont have to worry about me
i stood there looking at them and i directly looked into the Empresses eyes, i felt my body go cold for a moment, saying my goodbye we boarded the s.h.i.+p, i didnt even want go stay close to that women at all
the Empress felt like a storm which was only calm for now, why you ask..?
i had found over 5 recording devices in my room, it was hidden in different angles, normally a child who hadnt awakened wont be able to feel it but i could
looking through it i could feel mana similar to the Empress, i should be an idiot if i couldnt understand it till now, as much as i want to deal with her currently i cant
well the thought of cucking an Emperor does sound exiting, i must live after all that, so i couldnt move against her until i awaken my bloodline
so like a nice boy i kept it all back, as if nothing had been changed, taking a deep breath and confirming my goals i entered the s.h.i.+p knowing not what the future held for me.
