Chapter 12: Sona: I will win and you will be mine
"Did you mean what you said, Eiji-kun?"
Sona had a serious expression on her face, even a little cold and said: "Chess is my favorite game, so you'd better not underestimate my skill in playing it."
"There is still a chance to retreat, why didn't you accept my offer earlier?"
"That's right Eiji-kun, Kaichou is actually an unbeatable Grandmaster in chess." Tsubaki added, she was actually worried about this time traveler being too arrogant and harming himself.
Although the two seemed to underestimate him in the chess game, Eiji knew they were also worried about him for betting on a game they thought was impossible for him to win.
It was natural for Sona to be arrogant when it came to chess, after all since she was a child. The girl was indeed invincible and continued to beat every person or marriage suitor who challenged her in chess.
For Sona, chess was a game that could decide her future and if she lost to someone - especially a guy. She had to marry that man and couldn't refuse because she had vowed that any man who could beat her in chess; she would make him her husband.
Many men have tried to challenge Sona in the chess game, not only because they are greedy for Sona's beauty, but they are more greedy to become the son-in-law of the Sitri Family in the underworld.
In the underworld, the supernatural world, the Sitri family was indeed one of the strongest noble families and had very high prestige there.
So naturally many people wanted to join that family by marrying the young lady Sitri.
However, so far no one has ever managed to beat Sona in a game of chess.
Unfortunately, there will be one person who manages to do so today.
Who will it be?
Of course it's me.
¶{Host, you're so confident. Are you sure you can win? Why not wait for the system to reward you with god-level chess skills?}
'And when will that happen?
¶{Well... I'm not sure. After all, the rewards of the system are random}.
'Then forget it. I don't need the system's help in this matter.'
'Just so you know, my chess skills are actually not bad.'
'Miss System, you don't seem to know who I was in my previous life.'
¶{Eh.. Yes, I do not know who you were in your previous life. I don't have access to read your memories from previous lives.}
Miss System was honest, she really didn't know.
Eiji smiled, he didn't answer.
Miss System rolled her eyes, does this person also want to pretend to be mysterious with his system?
Staring at Sona, Eiji looked very confident and said: "Thank you for worrying about me, but please don't underestimate me."
"Even if I lose, it just means that my chess skills are indeed worse than Shitori-senpai."
"So it shouldn't matter, right? If I lose I'll join your group and if I win..."
"If you win?" Sona smiled slightly.
Eiji also did the same, he narrowed his eyes, looked into Sona's purple eyes and said: "If I win, I just want Senpai to not force me to join your group anymore."
"Eh, that's it?" Sona widened her eyes, actually she thought Eiji would be more greedy.
For example he didn't want to join her group, but he wanted her and Tsubaki to be his women.
Tsubaki also widened her eyes, she looked at Eiji's face as if to see if this man was serious?
Eiji nodded calmly. "Un, I'm serious."
Sona bit her lip, she felt very upset.
Was it because the other party was so uninterested in joining her group, or was he really uninterested in her and Tsubaki?
Impossible.
I can't believe this man isn't interested in their beauty.
Although I have never seen such a beautiful girl named Lala who was mentioned in his inner voice.
But for the girl named Yui who is in the same class as Eiji, she knows her looks and is very confident that she is not inferior to her!
Although I'm a little lacking in the chest department, but there's Tsubaki to make up for that lack.
This situation is like you buying one pretty doll at a toy store, but the toy store keeper gives you two pretty dolls!
Are you still not greedy for that?!
Also, you're too confident.
In a game of chess, I, Sona Sitri am invincible.
Want to fight with me in this game?
I will beat you and you will be mine then and there.
For some reason, Sona had dark thoughts of making this time traveler kneel down and lick her feet.
She had to make this handsome blond boy realize how beautiful she was and not look down on her.
She had to make the other party regret his stupidity for not accepting her offer earlier.
Obviously I gave the easier path earlier, but the other party wanted to take the hard path to provoke me in a game of chess.
She will definitely win this game.
As for thinking she will lose? Sona doesn't think she will lose and has to worry about the vow she made since childhood.
After all, she is the one who will win in this game.
"Good, very good." Sona clapped her hands, she immediately sat on the sofa and opened the chessboard on the table.
After setting it up, she looked at Eiji seriously.
"Then let's get started."
Eiji sat facing each other with Sona, he stared at the chessboard in front of him lightly.
"White or black?" Sona asked expressionlessly.
Eiji pretended to think for a while before saying, "White".
Sona nodded, turning the side of the chessboard. She had the black pieces, while Eiji had the white pieces on his side.
"You can move first."
"...Okay."
[This girl really underestimates me.]
Sona smiled faintly, there was arrogance in her violet eyes.
Of course, I'll win in the end anyway and you'll be mine.
Eiji shrugged, the more arrogant Sona was during the game, the better for him.
To get the heart of a girl like Sona, you have to break her arrogance first and make her see that you are the first guy who managed to beat her in the game that she has always been proud of.
After that not only will her heart flutter, you will make a deep impression on her heart.
Although it was unsure whether or not the other party would fall in love with him immediately, Eiji was sure that after that Sona would often think of him in a daze and willingly give in to him.
There would be no rejection, Sona would definitely be enthusiastic to pursue him at that time.
¶{Host, were you a love manipulator in your previous life? How many women have fallen victim to you?}
'Nonsense, Miss System. What are you talking about? In my previous life I was just a good person who knew how to enjoy life.'
¶{....}
Seeing Eiji and Sona who had started to compete, Tsubaki casually brewed some more tea for the two.
After that she stood beside Sona and watched the match.
Who would win and who would lose?
At first Tsubaki believed Sona would definitely win, she knew how good her boss's skills were that could make professional chess players blush and run away with their money.
But after a few minutes, Tsubaki widened her eyes, she looked at Eiji in horror.
Sona's forehead was sweating, she stared at the chessboard and the blonde boy in front of her in disbelief.
Her arrogant gaze was long gone and replaced with an insanely focused gaze.
Her brain was spinning, it kept spinning so fast that some of the nutrients and energy in her body went to her brain instead of her chest.
Eiji's soldiers were ferocious and cunning.
He set traps with a smile on his face, making the commanders in her army fooled.
In just a few minutes all the horsemen and some of her soldiers were killed.
The queen was surrounded with many long swords in her face.
King Sona could only watch as her Queen was harassed by the enemy soldiers.
She ordered the few remaining warriors to save her, but it was useless.
King Eiji was so cunning, he had blocked all avenues of escape.
No matter how much Sona twisted her brain, she couldn't find a way to escape.
Her Queen had long been abused by Eiji's soldiers, and her King could only watch by the side of the road.
How despicable!
Shameless!
She stared at the blonde boy in front of her in horror.
Eiji smiled, showing off his white teeth.
"Senpai, why not give up and admit your defeat?"
"No! I, I can definitely find a way to save my Queen from the dirty hands of your soldiers!"
Sona bit her thumb, and continued to think hard while looking at her Queen who was surrounded by white soldiers.
The King was no better, he was also surrounded.
Her current situation was really at a dead end.
The King knelt down, had a green hat and could only watch his Queen being harassed by enemy soldiers.
What should I do?
What should I do?
Is there really no way out?
Tsubaki, who was watching from the side had a strange expression.
These people kept saying the Queen was harassed by the enemy soldiers.
As the one who is actually also the Queen in Sona's peerage, I feel a little embarrassed.
Who was harassed by the soldiers?
You guys didn't imagine it was me, did you?
...
On the other side.
When Sona and Eiji were busy playing chess.
Ignoring the teachers who are still teaching in class.
People like Sona are clearly abusing her status as student council president to skip class.
Eiji was the same, he would only blame the student council for not letting him return to class if the teacher scolded him.
The people in the occult research club were the same.
Rias currently has a face that is red with anger.
She stared at the people standing at the door of her club as if forming a blockade of people with annoyance.
"Sona is so cunning, how dare she order almost all of her peerage to block the door of my club."
"Absolutely despicable!"
The leader of the group, the white-haired girl named Momo Hanakai who was also a Sona's Bishop said: "Sorry Rias, but this is Kaichou's order."
"Please be patient, it's only for a moment."
"A moment!? It's been almost an hour since my group and I were locked up in my own club. In this time, do you think I don't know your King is courting a very good transfer student to join her peerage?"
"She even used her body and her Queen's body to seduce that transfer student."
"Heh, shameless!
Rias laughed angrily, her blood-red hair flying rather wildly in the air.
Akeno, the short white-haired girl named Koneko and the blonde boy named Yuuto Kiba stood beside Rias with unhappy expressions and ready to fight at any time as long as Rias gave the order.
Momo, who was leading the other members of Sona's peerage frowned.
She didn't know how Rias knew what Sona was doing.
And she honestly didn't know if Sona and Tsubaki really went that far to use their bodies to recruit the transfer students in question either.
Momo lacked knowledge of the details, and she was only given the mission by Sona, her King to block Rias and her group for as long as possible.
Don't let Rias and her group out of the occult research club, at least until Sona contacts her that her mission has been completed.
So here she was, lining up with the other members of Sona's peerage to block the doors of the occult research club and the people inside.
"Please do not speak ill of Kaichou, Rias."
"Even if she really did, you and your group should still stay here for a while."
With an expressionless face, Momo said that calmly.
Rias pointed at Momo's face in annoyance. "You, you.. if you and the others don't step aside right now, I'll..."
"Rias, we're still at school. According to the rules you and Kaichou agreed on."
"Your group and Kaichou's group are forbidden from fighting or making a scene with magic in school."
Momo immediately interrupted the red-haired girl.
I even talked about rules right away.
Rias who originally wanted to fight fell silent, she was surprised that not only Sona, but the bespectacled girl's subordinates were also very shameless.
"Momo, you say that, but you and the rest of Sona's people are making a scene by blocking the door of my club."
"Aren't you ashamed to talk about the rules I agreed with Sona now?"
Momo blushed, she hurriedly said: "But we didn't use magic, just blocked the door with our bodies."
"We didn't break the rules..."
The people who followed Momo were also a little embarrassed, they looked the other way as if I was just following orders and only Momo was bearing the shame.
Rias's lips twitched, these people seriously said that?
"Akeno."
Akeno who was standing beside her laughed "Ara Ara", out of nowhere she took out a black toy whip.
"I understand Rias."
Rias nodded, then turned to Koneko.
"Koneko."
The white-haired little girl clenched her small fists and said: "I understand, Buchou. Leave it to me."
Lastly, Rias looked at Yuuto who seemed to be waiting for her order.
To be honest after hearing Eiji's inner voice about Yuuto who was most likely gay.
She felt complicated, I slightly distanced myself from him now and said: "Yuuto, since you're a boy and the other party are all girls..."
"Don't worry Buchou. I don't mind hitting girls. To me, male or female is the same."
"Ugh...no, that's not what I meant... Just don't use the sword, okay?"
Yuuto put away his wooden sword and nodded while raising his slender fists.
"I understand."
Rias sighed, although I feel a little complicated about Yuuto. But the other party is still a peerage I'm sure is kind and obedient.
So it's okay.
For now...
She glanced at Momo and the rest of Sona's peerage who looked nervous.
She smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if it doesn't use magic, right?"
"Don't worry Momo."
"At most you all just suffered bruises."
Momo's expression looked ugly when she heard this.
She snorted and said: "Rias, don't think we'll lose in a physical fight."
"If it's about a magic battle, we might lose to your group."
"But physical? Hehe you underestimate us too much."
After saying that, everyone raised their respective fists.
The people in the classroom and the teacher who was teaching had no idea in the occult research club a fistfight was going on.
Even Eiji, who was smiling with a triumphant look on his face didn't know.
He looked at the girl with glasses in front of him and said.
"Senpai, you lost."
