Undefeated Chess Grandmaster 13 Introductions

The four of them walked out of the venue and headed to a nearby table beside the vendor. The four of them sat and picked the snack they like to eat. Alex, who was shocked earlier, couldn't help but asks.

"What the heck happen earlier? Why did you all beat that guy?"

Kai looks at Alex with a sharp glare to silence him up. Alex saw that and didn't pursue the matter further. It was the first time Kai was insulted to this degree, and she didn't know how to handle it. John and Elaine are also not faring well, and it was also the first time they beat someone.

"Anyways, that was refreshing. Beating that guy up made my thoughts clear, let's forget that fatso said it to us," Kai broke the silence. She didn't want their gatherings to be disturbed by the event earlier, so she mustered up some courage and broke this awkward silence.

"Yeah, we should," Both John and Elaine nod.

"That was an amazing match, John," Kai told John about the match. Kai thought that it was a fantastic match, she only saw standard opening moves that are played in the tournament and most of them ended in a tie. But John moved her, and it was amazing that she was lost in the thoughts in how to continue that game.

"Thanks, Kai, It was my first time playing a tournament, and it feels terrific" John cannot help but feel elated, he was thrilled that he won that game. This was the very first time he felt happy aside from her little sister.

"Right?~ I know how you feel. The first match I have played also made me feel like that" Kai replied to John happily. She was also drunk in that feeling of winning. She recalls the very first match she played and won in her memory and also felt the same way as John. Elaine who listen to their chatter also joined in.

"I know it felt good, but you shouldn't let this win be a hindrance for improvement" Elaine replied to John. She was also feeling good remembering her first match, it was satisfying that she could forever be drowned in such ecstasy, but her Dad told her that you shouldn't let this momentary victory drown you and only standing atop will let you enjoy such bliss.

"Thanks, Miss Elaine, I will keep this in mind" John accepted Elaine's opinion. He knows that he cannot rest yet until he won this tournament and earn money needed for her sister's medical bill. John was curious about each one of them, and he was happy that he made friends with them and wanted to be their friends even if they will be separated after this tournament.

"Oh yeah, we haven't fully introduced ourselves to you guys, right?" Kai asks John and Elaine and they both nod.

"Ok~, I will start with myself. My name is Kai Esther, I was born on March 3 of the year 1995, and I am currently ten years old. I like playing chess, eating, traveling and music. I live in Maschell street about 9 kilometers from here together with this goof~. Hey, Alex, introduce yourself" Kai introduces herself to them. Kai called out to Alex, who was eating.

"Ok, My names Alex Forst, I was born on June 6 of the year 1995, and I am also currently ten years old the same age as Kai. I like money, chess and foods, and video game. I also live in Maschell street" Alex introduces himself to them.

Kai and Alex watched as John and Elaine also introduced themselves.

"My name is Elaine Lanenia, I was born on December 12 of the year 1996, and I am currently nine years old. I like chess, traveling, eating, and reading. I live in Valle Province about 12 miles from here," Elaine introduces herself.

"I guess it's my turn. My name is John Sebastian, I was born on January 23 of the year 1996, and I am currently nine years old. I like chess. I live somewhere nearby from here. I have a little sister name Celine," John introduces himself. He was somewhat embarrassed to tell his whereabouts, and he only lives in a very small not to be considered home.

"Do you have anything you like besides chess John?" Kai wondered what does John likes besides chess.

"Well, I guess working should be one" John responded to Kai. John didn't have many likes, to begin with, he has only one, and that is to take care of his little sister. Chess to him is nothing but a game to past time when he was a small child.

"What kind of work do you do John?" The trio got interested. They never had a once work a job besides playing chess, and they were curious about John's work.

"I work on the eatery not far away from here," John replied to them. He was somewhat not willing to tell them about what he does in the eatery.

"Is the food there delicious?" Kai and Alex watch John with a bright expression.

Elaine, who was eating, noticed something. As they arrive at this place, she saw a boy at the eatery, but she didn't pay attention to it as she was depressed by the fact that she cannot participate in the chess tournament today, but luckily John became her partner. She looks at John and wonders if he is that boy she met at the eatery last time.

"Yeah, I guess so," John hesitates to reply. He remembered that he shouldn't be here right now. The owner should be throwing a tantrum right now for making him do the hard work. He was worried if he was fired from that place, but he can't just abandon this tournament because he needed the money.

Kai and Alex noticed that John is having trouble replying to their question. They wondered if they somewhat hurt John.

"John, did we hurt you?" Kai and Alex were worried if they hurt John about their words.

"No, not at all," John replied hurriedly.

"Phew" Kai and Alex relaxed. They didn't want to pry to someone if they don't like to talk about it.

As they continue to talk, they suddenly heard a broadcast that was played on a large monitor hanged on each intersection.

"Breaking news: The International Chess Game players of our country suffered a disastrous defeat in the hands of the rank 1 'King' in a series of 10 games without winning anything. This was the first time 'King' made a move ignoring the rules of the International Chess Game but the Chess Federation allowed this due to our country insistence to play an official betting match, and our player will now be retiring. The bet of this game is region 6 of our country. Advise-" The broadcaster delivered this hot news to the citizens of the country.

The people who heard that got worried, what did happen on the International Chess Game that made their player retire?

Elaine, Kai, and Alex heard that got shocked.

"What?! I can't believe it! I know that International Chess Game is cruel but not to the point of making the player retire from chess," Alex shouted. He was shocked to the core of this event. He knew that the International Chess Game was a fierce battle for chess players, but this also gives them prestige if they won and the losers can only suck it up and get better. But today, it was shocking that their chess player didn't even manage to win one or draw one but the opponent directly crushed him mentally to the point of retiring. Alex found this scary, he always aspires to be a chess player at the International Chess Game, but today he saw the world champion destroying their chess players like nothing. He couldn't help but grit his teeth.

Kai was also shocked. This was the first time she heard that 'King' made a move to play an official betting match.

"I can't believe it either, so this is 'King'?" Kai had worried expression. She was now worried if the International Chess Game's rule would be changed or else it could be a disaster for each country who have weaker players.

Elaine was also shocked. Her Dad also told her about this International Chess Game, and it was a cruel, bloody battle. Her Dad aspired to be an International Chess Game player, but he gave up. She thought that is this the reason he gave up?

John, who listened to the broadcast, got shocked. He was new to this chess information, but one thing he knows that a chess player cannot just retire from his profession just because he lost.

"Kai, Elaine, Alex, Who is this 'King'?" John directly asks the three of them.

The three heard John's question and answered simultaneously.

"Monster" Alex replied

"Demon" Kai replied

"Genius of all geniuses" Elaine replied.

Dave was walking on the sidewalks, and he was happy that he successfully registered her daughter on this chess tournament and surprisingly found John. He was interested in John's growth. But his thoughts were interrupted.

Dave heard the news was wearing an indifferent expression. He was slightly shocked at the even of the player retiring because he knows that his opponent is on a whole different level. But what he didn't like is that their country dared to bet the region. What were they thinking of betting the part of our country? He can't help but clench his fist, and he knows that the International Chess Game is a cruel, bloody battle and before he taught her daughter chess he already told her about the nature of this game. But she didn't even faze of such dangers, but she was determined to walk on this path for her love of chess. He was worried about this the moment she saw that game but alas he cannot change her mind.

"I hope you will not suffer the same fate as that player Elaine. John, please protect her well" Dave murmured to himself and continued to walk inside the building to see someone.
