A Beauty With Multiple Masks
Chapter 204

“Given how ignorant you are, you should just concede defeat. At this stage, you are just wasting everyone’s time by stalling. After all, Mr. Eakins has ended his game. Once you surrender, we can all watch Kelsea play against Mr. Eakins. It will be an exciting game between two of Mr. Jewell’s best students.” “That’s right, admit defeat now!” Arielle was bewildered. Is it really that powerful? Why don’t I know anything about it?

At that moment, Everett walked over. When he saw their game, his eyebrows furrowed in response. After all, the Lightspring Maneuver was so complex that even he couldn’t solve it. Therefore, he felt Kelsea was being a bully by using that tactic. Nevertheless, all was fair in love and war. When Arielle saw Everett, she asked, “Mr. Eakins, do you think this is a difficult gambit to overcome?” Everett glance at her and replied, “Of course.

My mentor was defeated by it during a competition in Lightspring. It was developed by my mentor’s mentor. Until today, I have yet to discover a solution for it.” Arielle raised her eyebrows in surprise. She didn’t expect Everett to replace such a simple gambit difficult to solve. Standing up in resignation, she remarked, “This tactic isn’t difficult to solve. It’s just that all of you are overthinking it.” Kelsea sneered, “Arielle, stop pretending and just concede defeat.

I have never seen anyone as unsporting as you in my entire life.” Shooting Kelsea an icy glare, Arielle reminded, “Thirty seconds have passed. I’m making my move now.” “Ha…” Kelsea replied with a smile, “I didn’t expect you to hold out till the end. Go ahead then.” Arielle picked up her queen casually. Trailing along with the black squares, she placed it right in the center of Kelsea’s formation. Just when Kelsea picked up her pawn to advance on Arielle’s formation, her gaze suddenly froze in disbelief once she got a proper look.

In just one move, Arielle had turned the tide of the entire game. Kelsea had no moves left as she had been checkmated. Kelsea’s expression evolved from shock to anger before ending in disbelief. Arielle… Arielle has won? Meanwhile, the spectators clearly saw what had occurred.

Just by moving her queen, Arielle had turned the entire game around, to the extent Kelsea had no moves left. If the Lightspring Maneuver was one that still left a sliver of hope for its opponents, Arielle’s move gave them no hope of a comeback at all. At that moment, everyone looked at Arielle in shock.

Even the poker-faced Everett reacted no differently. This girl… actually solved the Lightspring Maneuver? Kelsea was stunned in her chair. Until then, she couldn’t believe that she had lost to Arielle. Furthermore, she had used her ultimate move, the Lightspring Maneuver… When Arielle saw Kelsea’s expression, she sneered, “Do you want to concede defeat? Or… continue?”
