Bandora smiled and moved her piece, dissolving Viive’s attack. “I suppose you have time for one game, don’t you?”

“It’s ended. Why prolong it?”

“Do you think so? Why did I make that move, then?”

Viive frowned. Her last move should have checked Bandora. How did she avoid that trap?

Viive couldn’t wrap her around it.

“Did you do that on purpose?” she asked.

If Bandora had led Viive into making that move, it meant her chess skills were far more advanced.

“Who knows?” Bandora smiled but didn’t give a straight answer.

Viive sighed. She wasn’t Bandora’s match. She admitted her defeat, but some things couldn’t be resolved over a game of chess.

“The game is over. What’s your answer? Are you going to give them to me or not?” Viive glanced at Bandora and was ready to attack.

Bandora sipped her tea and said ambiguously, “Why the rush? Let’s be civil and talk about it.”

Viive glared at her and took out her zither.

“Keep dodging the subject, and you’ll answer my zither!” Viive was ready for a fight.

She had asked Bandora to hand over the two students, but so far, Bandora had been very offhanded with her and wouldn’t mention anything about Himmel Soan’s pupils.

Viive was done waiting. She lost her temper and gave Bandora the ultimatum.

However, Bandora wasn’t threatened. She met Viive’s eyes and became aggressive as well.

“You come here and demand that I give you my students. What makes you think I’ll hand them over?

“I’m the principal of Elixir School. You can’t take my students like they are cabbages.

“Emperor Baih, do you think your request is reasonable?

“You can’t disrespect me like that! Since you’ve just become Emperor Baih, I’ll forgive you for your actions.

“Still, it doesn’t give you the right to offend me repeatedly!” Bandora lost her temper.

Himmel Soan’s request aside, she wouldn’t give the pupils to Viive for her own dignity.

Why did this woman think she could come here and take her students away?

There was nothing more to talk about.

“Miss Cien, are you sure you want to go to war with the Baih family over two students?

“You repeatedly stated that this incident has nothing to do with Elixir School, but the person who killed my father is your school’s guest!

“How do I know he didn’t kill my father under your instruction?

“As for this Gina you mentioned, I don’t know anyone with her name. Is she one of your excuses?

“Elixir School can’t be innocent in this! You must hand them over, or your school will be at war with the Baih family!”

Viive was just as aggressive as Bandora. She was very confident, but where did it come from?

She turned down the Oogh family’s offer at first, but she was here in person to make a demand now. The reason lay in one person.

That person changed her mind.

It was Eman Sket, the principal of Stelladom Academy.

“Go to war? I have no intention to go to war with the Baih family, but if you want to declare war against us, we’ll take the challenge!” Bandora refused to back off.

She would avoid going to war at all costs. If a war broke off, it meant the incident had escalated to the most severe level.

All personnel on either side would have to go to war.

To initiate a war, some conditions needed to be fulfilled.

First of all, the leader of the two parties had to give consent. For instance, Bandora and Viive both had to agree to it.

Secondly, all the forces needed to be summoned as witnesses, and there would be a preparation time of three days.

Anybody on either side could choose not to participate, but if they did that, they would no longer belong to that side and would watch the battles as an ordinary audience.

Once the war started, everything else had to stop until one side won.

“So, Elixir School is prepared.”

“You came here just to declare war, didn’t you? Demanding the two students is just for show!” Bandora said sternly.

“No, I was trying to figure out your attitude. The best outcome is for you to hand them over. Haven’t you realized that?” Viive smiled.

She didn’t want to start a war either. So many people were involved. She would avoid it if she could.

However, Bandora wouldn’t give her those students. Viive had no other choice.

“Hand them over? Don’t flatter yourself. Somebody is behind this. That’s why you’re here.

“You’re just a girl. Declare war? Don’t make me laugh!

“You have no idea what a war means!”

It was obvious that Bandora didn’t take Viive seriously.

Viive was so young that Bandora felt the girl didn’t know what she was doing.

She believed Viive hadn’t thought it through before declaring war.

Someone must be behind all this. Otherwise, Viive would have come here when she became Emperor Baih. Why wait until now?

Bandora knew Viive’s behavior hid more than what appeared on the surface.

Maybe she should be expecting other unexpected incidents.

Thump!

Viive smacked the table. The chess pieces fell all over the ground.

“I’m not a little girl! You’re going to pay for your arrogance and ignorance.

“I’m Emperor Baih. Miss Cien, you should know your place!

“You’re just a coward who has inherited some power. How dare you talk to one of the eight emperors like that?”

Viive stormed off.

Bandora frowned. How did Viive find that out? Who was behind her?

Emperor Oogh?

Or somebody else?

Going to war was a complicated matter.

“Miss Cien, why didn’t you let her have us?”
