Chapter 112: It's actually you?

At this time, on the competition field, the atmosphere gradually became solemn.

Most participants had sat down at the designated shogi tables one after another, holding their breath, waiting for the instruction for the competition to officially start.

Natsume Chikage sits quietly at shogi board number 77, his gaze cast calmly toward the empty seat opposite him—his opponent has yet to appear.

Just at this time, the corner of his eye caught a familiar petite figure.

I saw Gu Chuan Caixu walking over with slightly hesitant steps, and an obvious embarrassed look on that cute little face.

Due to her height, she had to stretch out her hands to climb onto the chair with some effort.

Even after sitting firmly, those feet wearing small leather shoes were still hanging in the air, swinging gently.

Gu Chuan Caixu lowered her head slightly, her cheeks flushed, her fingers twisted together uneasily, and her eyes wandered, not daring to look at Natsume Chikage for a long time.

She opened her mouth, but didn't know how to speak.

Not long ago, they were encouraging each other and cheering for each other.

In the blink of an eye, they became opponents at both ends of the chessboard... This sudden change was really overwhelming.

But deep in her heart, she felt even more sorry for this big brother—his luck was really too bad, meeting her in the first round...

She had studied shogi under the personal guidance of her grandfather, the Long Wang of the old era, since she was a child, and the years were long.

It can be said that from the time she learned to eat and speak, the chessboard had become an indispensable part of her life.

Although she lacked a lot of actual combat experience with outside players, she didn't think this was necessary.

After all, Grandpa and Senior Sister Xiang Yutang, who could play against her, already represented the peak level of the Shogi Association.

Except for the contemporary Long Wang and a few title holders, few people in the shogi world could be the opponents of these two.

And they had already taught her everything they had learned in their lives, and even arranged for her to be tempered in the online shogi world.

Therefore, even if she lacked offline actual combat, Gu Chuan Caixu clearly recognized her own strength.
