21. Soul Chess (2)

Soul Chess.

For Baek Yu-seol, the content was quite disgusting.

While playing Aiter World, this soul chess appeared everywhere.

Regardless of persona gates, dungeons, and historical sites, I had to break through traps and difficulties through soul chess without ever trying.

Unlike general chess, this soul chess game is more like a turn-based game (TRPG) in that it competes with horses with various abilities.

However, it was the same for other players, and with the help of the ‘system’,

Arthur had no choice but to attack the opponent.

In Soul Chess, the strategic battle begins from the moment the pieces are placed.

Does your own army have the ability to match the opponent’s forces? Are the forces I have deployed have an advantage over the opponent?

From there, Baek Yu-seol took advantage of it.

Although he had never faced Edman Atalec directly, the words and tactics he used were all recorded on his straight-faced glasses.

In other words, it would be possible to play soul chess while watching the ‘Strategy Book’.

In addition, if you use the ‘phenomenon analysis’ system of straight glasses based on that information, it analyzes the opponent’s chess pattern and tells you which number to place with the highest probability of winning.

In other words, I have an AlphaGo along with the strategy book, but I can’t lose it when I’m tired of Baek Yoo-seol.

Edman Atalec, unaware of this fact, looked confidently at the chessboard installed in front of him.

‘Ha, cow chess?’

The rushed mind had already disappeared. Now you can look around at your leisure.

The signing of the pledge is over.

Now, after winning Soul Chess, all you have to do is get the item trading rights.

“Hey, do you play soul chess with Edman and first-year juniors?”

“I don’t just play, I bet soul chess.”

“Writing an oath… …

“Will the senior win?”

“Hey, that’s normal. Have you seen anyone in Stella who can play soul chess better than Edman-senpai?”

The spectators are growing steadily. At first, the spectators felt burdened, but now I thought that I would rather have more spectators gather. Only then will he be able to show his victory to everyone.

Edman looked at Hong Bi-yeon in the seat next to him. with warm affection.

But she closed her eyes and crossed her legs, sipping her coffee. city

She was savage, who didn’t even give me a line, but it didn’t matter because she was the woman who was going to be my girl anyway. No matter what anyone says, I’m the only one who can touch her.

Edman made eye contact with Baek Yu-seol with that thought.

On the contrary, Hong Bi-yeon’s mind was dizzy.

‘What do you think? Soul chess… .’

After all, Edman Atalec chooses the sport he is good at.

All I could think of was that it was really crazy. If you lose there, everything

would be meaningless.

Any thoughts? No matter how smart Baek Yu-seol is, it is impossible to defeat Edman Atalec, who is called the prodigy of soul chess and has been taught since the age of five.

Knowing this, Edman said leisurely.

“Come on, junior. Then slowly, let’s place the horse. Do it first.”

Baek Yu-seol nodded his head without hesitation. How can you give up your advance for free for such an important bet? There is no fool

“It is.”

It is much larger than a normal chessboard, and they placed their pieces on a chessboard in the shape of an octagon.

Even the process of placing the horses is a brain battle.

If your opponent picks up and places five pieces, then you pick up and place five pieces.

I had to check the opponent’s piece, change the strategy, think about which piece to place, and then choose.

[Adman Atalec mainly deploys ‘Indestructible Flame Water’ troops. Be careful as we are pursuing a strategy that focuses on firepower.]

[If he is the first striker, there is a high possibility of moving a ‘Fire Monster’ or installing a ‘Burning Earth’ on the field. You’d better prepare a ‘frozen iceberg’ for that, but if you haven’t… .]

In Baek Yu-seol’s vision, countless ‘Adman Atalec’s soul chess strategy comes to mind. Based on that, the straight glasses began ,

The most ideal route was shown by floating like a hologram in the air.

He followed it, leisurely placing the piece on the chessboard.

Psychological warfare is not necessary.

Whatever he does, he has an advantage.

“Umm•••••••?”

Edman, who was arranging the horse, slightly wrinkled the corners of his eyes. Even so, I didn’t take it lightly as it was enough to bet on Soul Chess, but seeing only a few of his own pieces, he showed an arrangement that seemed to have completely grasped the strategy.

dried from the start.

For a moment, anxieties came over me, but I struggled to shake it off. It’s only about this level of compatibility, because you can overcome it with your own experience and excellent strategy. I’m used to fighting like this countless times.

“Home home, shall we start?”

Baek Yu-seol replied instead by moving his horse to advance.

‘Well?’

Aggressive moves from the start. Edman’s audacity to send a horse with sufficient strategic elements and high offensive and defensive power close to the enemy line made Edman salvage.

pair was surprised

Not in a good sense, but in a bad sense.

‘Isn’t this commoner stupid that he doesn’t know it’s a search game?’

Not a bad development for Edman. If you can drastically cut the opponent’s power from the start.

Since the opponent came out boldly, Edman also boldly moved with only three words.

‘Speed Run Night’

It was not a horse with strong attack power, but it was a horse that could cover the entire map with excellent mobility.

Kwajik!

When Edman’s horse moved and cut off the white Yuseol’s words, it disappeared into powder of light. However, Baek Yu-seol did not panic and moved on to the next word. This time the pressure started from another place.

Again, it was an aggressive move, but it didn’t do much damage to Edman’s side. On the contrary, Edman took out all three horses using his mobility and cut down the main horses of Baek Yu-seol one by one.

‘Is this easy?’

Edman, with a smile on his lips, played chess in a relaxed posture without even hiding his expression.

Hong Bi-yeon chewed her lips and made an anxious expression.

‘What the hell are we going to do?’

But at some point.

As Edman’s words slowly penetrated into the realm of Baek Yu’s theory, a change began.

“••••••Well?”

When I came to my senses, the three horses of Baek Yu-seol occupied a certain point and

magic has been activated.

[Trap: Jade Chain]

A field effect that establishes a prison in a certain narrow space, making it impossible for a horse to escape for five turns.

But, is it a coincidence or a strategy?

All three ‘Speed Run Knights’ responsible for Edman’s mobility were caught in the trap.

‘uh… … ?’

It must be a coincidence. Only five turns. There is no way you can reverse this situation with five turns.

furthermore.

‘Heh, I can finish the field soon!’

In Soul Chess, you can’t simply kill an opponent’s piece by swallowing it. He had to attack several times to lower his defense, but a field magic that would greatly increase the attack power of all his horses was activated.

[Field: Burning Earth]

A field that reduces the defense of the opponent who is weak to the fire type and raises the attack power of the opponent who is strong in the fire type.

Occupy five points

It was very difficult to complete this because it was barbaric. However, the moment it is completed as much as it is difficult, the opponent is quickly pushed into the defense.

‘It’s over.’

How many metallurgical and secret horses have you been moving to occupy points so far? Baek Yu-seol did not notice this strategy at all and was doing meaningless things.

By the way.

[Occupation: Overturned Earth]

“••••••what?”

As Baek Yu-seol’s words move, Edman

Without realizing it, I let out a stupid sound out of my mouth.

The ‘pawn’ of the most prankster, who didn’t even know it was moving, was seizing a certain point at some point.

Normally, no effect is activated, but if the opponent captures while [Field] is activated, the [Reverse] effect is obtained.

In other words, the fire attribute [Burning Earth] froze in an instant and became [Frozen Earth].

“Hey, this is… …

How to complete the burning earth

Did you complete the reversal as soon as possible?

that… … It was said that Baek Yu-seol was completely penetrating Edman’s intentions.

‘No, no! If you eat up all the point pieces, you can take back my field!’

I tried to attack the point by moving the speedrun knight in a hurry while chewing my lips.

‘ah.’

Come to think of it, all of his speedrun nights were locked in [Jade Chain] and unable to move.

From then on, I couldn’t think of anything.

‘What… summer solstice… … ?’

There was no way.

In a situation where the Speedrun Knight was tied up, there was not a single word that could reach the opponent’s point.

By the way, if you clear the field yourself… … All the turns you’ve been working on so far will be in vain. I mean, it’s nothing but suicide.

‘No, no. I was lucky enough to see my strategy, but if I calmly gather up my strength and fight again, I’m sure I’ll win.

will be…

Edman bit his lip, and canceled [Fire Earth]. Then, the effect was reversed, and the frozen land melted cleanly, revealing a flat land with nothing.

‘Okay, now that I’m ready to… !’

But, before he even thought of anything.

bang

Baek Yu-seol’s words moved without hesitation. It was an aggressive move without any hesitation.

I was a little perplexed, but I slowly organized my hair.

Know your opponent’s strategy.

If you get out of hand, you will obviously be embarrassed and show a gap.

Slowly, slowly, that’s how it will go.

But.

bang! bang!

Edman thinks for 5 minutes, and Baek Yu-seol thinks for 5 seconds.

He had no hesitation, and immediately after Edman’s turn

He moved his horse and swept through his army like a tidal wave.

at that time.

Edman felt a certain fear.

It’s like playing chess with a being without blood, tears, or emotions.

All of a sudden, I could feel the snow white in front of me. It was impossible to face his cold, expressionless expression.

Rumble.

Edman forced his trembling hands to hold the horse, but there was no other way.

The opponent did not reveal any loopholes in any attack, and completely destroyed his army with a wild and subjugative attack that contained no emotion at all.

At that moment, he felt despair.

Like… … It was like facing an archmage who was crushing him with overwhelming power. It was the first time he had acted so calmly without expressing any emotion.

It was so creepy and horrifying to the point that tears came out.

‘ha ha ha… …

lost.

He did not want to admit the obvious fact, but as he went on, he became nothing more than an earthworm writhing in front of a giant.

In the end, Edman knocked his own king down with his finger.

thud!

A declaration of complete defeat.

He covered his head with both hands and clasped it.

‘What the hell is this… … ?’

Beads of sweat formed on the tip of his pointed nose. Sweat drips, drips, drips down to the floor

Even in the filthy conditions, he did not dare to raise his face.

it must be a dream

it will be a dream

This was a game that should never be lost.

okay. This can’t be real.

He thought so, but the students roared loudly, waking him up to reality.

“Hey, Edman-senpai lost?”

“How could I… …

“Crazy, did you just see it? no strategy joke

Do you?”

“I don’t know soul chess well, so I don’t know what it is… …

“Did you just play one-sidedly? Edman-senpai lost his strength and was beaten.”

Among such students, Hong Bi-yeon disappeared without a word first, and Baek Yu-seol also woke up with a pledge of magical power.

With a smile so warm that it was hard to believe that he was a chess player with no emotion reminiscent of a machine, he lightly bowed his head.

“It was a good match. thank you for your effort.”

After saying that, as Baek Yu-seol hid outside the cafe, Edman lowered his head.

It’s not a dream, it’s reality.

that fact… … I realized it very clearly.
