Chapter 314: Childish Warlords



"I knew it," the First Sister grabbed her hair. "I should've skipped!"

"Calm down; we still got this." Adam tried to reassure her, but it didn't seem to work.

She was utterly and thoroughly panicking!

Crack!

Her marble cracked for the second time. It now looked like it could break from a single touch. She was one loss away from dying!

"Now it's our turn." Adelram said with a chuckle.

Adam looked serious, nodded, and rolled his marble to the center of the table.

Adelram did the same.

After the two marbles stopped, numbers appeared.

"11," Adam said.

"10," Adelram chuckled. "Not so lucky anymore, aye?"

Crack!

At last, Adam's marble cracked.

He had suffered multiple attacking attempts, but finally he lost!

'Cursed!' Adam frowned.

"The sixth round, let's do it."

After he said so, everyone except the First Sister threw their marbles to the center of the table.

The First Sister looked at her almost destroyed marble and carefully rolled it across the table. She was worried if she threw it, it would break!

However, her worries were unfounded, as the marble would only break if she lost the game. After the numbers appeared, everyone spoke their numbers out loud.

"12," Adelram said.

"16," Kol said.

"15," Pandora said.

"4," Gabriel scoffed.

"2," Adam massaged his temples.

"17!" The First Sister exclaimed.

'Good!' Adam thought with a sigh.

Everyone turned to look at the human girl, who was closest to death. If she lost this battle, she would die!

She realized that as soon as she picked up her marble.

'Right, I can die!' The First Sister paled. 'Was it good that I won after all? It would've been better if Adam won, but without my good score, Kol would've won, and he would've attacked me!'

The realization dawned on her.

If she was really unlucky, she could actually die!

It was great!

They were now both able to attack!

'This is good, but...' Adam frowned. 'I am still worried.'

"Who will you two attack?" Adelram asked.

The First Sister gulped. 'Should I go for one of the two that had already used their skips?'

At that moment, Adam leaned close to her and whispered something. Her eyes widened in

surprise, but she eventually nodded.

"I-I will attack you, Adelram!" She said.

"And I will attack you, Gabriel." Adam said.

"Heh." Adelram shrugged his shoulders but didn't throw his marble. "I'll skip."

"I'll skip too!" Gabriel flexed his muscles.

'They actually skipped...' The First Sister looked at Adam. 'He realized what they were plotting, and now we're the only ones with skips left!'

'These four don't care about winning.' Adam thought. 'They just don't want us two to win.'

Therefore, they were planning on ruining their own game just to waste their attacking turns. It didn't matter to them if they lost as long as Adam, and the First Sister was going to lose! Whether it was pride or childishness, they didn't want to lose to two mortal humans! "Ninth round!" Adelram announced and tossed his marble to the center of the table.

At the same moment, everyone rolled their marbles to the center of the table.

The numbers appeared.

"6," Adelram rolled his eyes.

"9," Kol said.

"14," Gabriel grinned.

However, at the next words, his grin vanished.

"16," Pandora giggled.

"9..." The First Sister's face paled, and she hoped for Adam to get the attacking turn.

However, Adam shook his head. "13."

"Ah, finally my turn-" Pandora's purple eyes turned evil, and she looked straight at the First

Sister like she was nothing but a prey.

'It's over.' The First Sister's lips curled down into a sad look. 'I must skip... I must!'

"You!" Pandora pointed straight at her. "I'll attack you, little girl!"

"S-s..." The First Sister took a deep breath and said. "I'll skip!"

Adam lowered his gaze, his heart heavy.

He didn't have to look to know that the warlords were grinning with happiness. She was now

defenseless, and if any of them got another attacking turn, she would most likely die.

She realized that as well.

'Brothers and sisters...' the First Sister bit her lip.
