Salute To The General

Chapter 2775



Nathan frowned slightly.

Upon seeing Nathan's frown, Szymon assumed that Nathan was not up for the challenge.

He immediately began to tease, "Heh, Mr. Cross, if I lose, my life will be on the line but you only have to bark three times if you lose. If you're not up for the challenge, then I'll ask you to kindly see yourself out and never bother me regarding the... Err... What's it called? The imperial jade seal ever again."

Carlos' glowered, "Your Grace, do you know how respectable President Cross' identity is? Asking him to bark three times if he loses might be worse than you losing your head! Give it up, Your Grace. President Cross is not going to play this game with you!"

Szymon lifted the corner of his mouth into a smirk. "Just admit that you have no guts. What's with all the explanation? I heard that Mr. Cross is from a wealthy family and has trained in the military. He has even been elected as president of Eurasia! I assumed that Mr. Cross is multitalented! Looks like I was wrong. He is nothing but a scaredy-cat who can't even accept a challenge."

Carlos' rage was off the charts. He opened his mouth, ready to retort.

Just then, Nathan spoke up. "Szymon, I had originally intended to make this a peaceful interaction out of respect and consideration for the relationship between our countries. However, you have conned us out of our national treasure, and now, you're mocking us. Since you've decided to make things difficult for yourself, I'll gladly do as you wish. I accept the challenge. Once I win all three rounds, I will make sure you can no longer complain."

Szymon had not expected that Nathan would agree to it.

His eyes immediately lit up. A look of twisted ecstasy was written all over his face.

"How thrilling! You truly have the character and charisma of Eurasia's God of War and president! I like you! Hahaha!"

Nathan replied calmly, "Don't be too happy. If I lose, I will be humiliated without a doubt. But if I win, you would have to protect that head of yours!" Nathan's words immediately caused Szymon's smile to stiffen.

Indeed!

He had successfully convinced Nathan to join the challenge.

However, if Nathan successfully completed all three of his tests, that would make him look like a performing clown.

Szymon narrowed his eyes. "Looks like you're very confident, Mr. Cross, but I don't think that you can win against the elites that I have chosen from the three thousand scholars, and can win thrice in a row."

Nathan did not agree or disagree. have already agreed to the

Szymon got serious. He had already prepared for this. "The three tests are simple. The first round shall be a traditional board game. The second round will be chess. The third round will be sparring. For the first two

When Penny, Colin, Ava, and the rest heard what Szymon had said, joy surged through their hearts.

Most people might not know how skilled Nathan was when it came to playing chess, but Penny and the rest did.

Back at Channing, Nathan had defeated many professional chess players. Even the masters of chess in Eurasia were in awe of his skills.

Szymon was truly making his life more difficult by challenging Nathan to board games.

As for sparring, that was what Nathan was best at. Penny and the rest had full confidence in his ability.

Nathan smiled lightly. "All right.

Deal."

Seeing the relaxed look on Nathan's face, Szymon could not help but snicker "In that case, let the first round begin! Are you up for around of traditional board game?" Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

"Sure!"

A look of gloat flickered across Szymon's face. With a clap, he commanded, "Bring out the board!"

Within seconds, the servants brought out a board and its pieces.

When Penny, Colin, Ava, and the Elite Eight saw the board game that the servants have brought, their expressions shifted.

The servants had brought out checkers, a modern board game.
