Chapter 198 Checkmate

Zany didn’t think that someone who grew up in the village would know how to play chess. Therefore, Arielle must just be putting up a strong front.

Unbeknownst to her, reality was different from what she expected.

The tournament was about to begin in two minutes, and Zany noticed that many people had gathered around them to watch.

Pretending to be magnanimous, she explained, “I had better run through the ground rules with you. The chess pieces are already in place so I don’t have to show you that. I’m black while you’re white. I’ll move the black pieces and you will do the same to the white pieces. Based on the rules, white will move first. If you want to surrender, all you need to do is to topple your king…”

Zany acted as if she was an expert while going through the rules with Arielle.

 

However, Arielle didn’t interrupt and quietly listened to her show off.

In the eyes of others, Arielle looked as if she was learning the game earnestly.

 

Finally, the tournament began.

Zany gestured courteously for Arielle to start.
