Xanthen laughed happily and grabbed a new set of cards.

This time, she picked out the hardest puzzle there was, a five–stor Sudoku that not even the sixth graders could solve, let alone him!

“Alright, let’s go!”

She had never lost at Sudoku against her classmates, not even to the older students. This was the first time she had been thoroughly bested by someone!

Orion fidgeted with the card in his hand, worried she might not like him winning.

“You won, so you can punish me. But, but let’s count it at the end, okay? Let’s switch to Rubik’s cubes!”

To offset the punishment, Xanthea scrambled two Rubik’s cubes and thrust them into his hands without a second thought.
