"Erya, stop playing around."

"Okay, I know, just kidding."

Seeing Kyoka's face flushed red and her image almost ruined, Nanami couldn't help but complain.

Outsiders may not know about Kyoka's situation, but how could they not know?

Despite her seemingly reclusive nature, Kyoka is actually quite withdrawn and has no friends outside. That's why she was reprimanded by Sagiri when she pointed it out earlier.

When people speak ill of me, or when I feel wronged, I am actually very vulnerable, and I used to cry often.

She can put on a facade in front of strangers and children, but in front of her "older sisters," she is actually quite vulnerable...

"Breakfast is ready, come over a little later~"

But at that moment, Bai Ye's voice suddenly came from the kitchen, which distracted the three of them again, and they stopped dwelling on the matter.

"Oh! It smells so good! Uncle, your cooking is really amazing!" Hui naturally heard his words, took a deep breath, and showed a satisfied expression.

"Hehe, eat more if you like, there's plenty more anyway."

"Don't rush, I had breakfast before coming here, and I was just getting to the exciting part. This girl named 'Yinzi' is the second female lead in this book, right? She seems to have a strong presence. Could she also be your daughter?"

However, unlike Sagiri, she didn't succumb to the temptation of the food and came over. Instead, she continued to sit on the sofa and read the novel.

"Uh, no, that's not it... huh?"

Ding dong.

Just as Bai Ye was feeling somewhat embarrassed and about to deny the matter, the doorbell suddenly rang.

You should know that their house has an electronic door lock on the outside and an inner door.

If you're not someone you know, you can't even get through the outer door.

Those who are able to get here must all be our own people.

"I'll go open the door and greet the guests."

At that moment, Erya suddenly smiled and volunteered to open the door, her smile was incredibly subtle.

Soon, she reached the door, opened it, and a girl in a sailor uniform with short silver hair appeared outside...

"Thank you for your help today, Master."

"...You're here, Gin-chan~"

Seeing the girl bow deeply to him, Bai Ye greeted her somewhat awkwardly, then glanced at Hui, who was staring wide-eyed to the side…

"Huh?! The characters from the novel have actually appeared!!"

"..."xN

So I've already said that's not how it is.

Chapter 172: Gin-chan, you're my heroine~! (Please subscribe)

In the Bai family mansion in Tiangong City.

A man and a woman sat facing each other, with a shogi board between them, and they were playing a game.

However, the two sides performed completely differently.

The woman's brows were furrowed, and her face was serious.

Wearing a dark blue sailor uniform and thick black tights, she sat on a cushion, holding a folding fan in her hand and rhythmically tapping it as she pondered earnestly and calmly.

Combined with her pretty, slightly youthful face and her silver, shoulder-length short hair, it created a beautiful picture.

On the other hand, the man, although also very handsome, had a relaxed expression on his face, sat with his legs crossed, and had a frivolous smile on his lips, as if he were toying with the other person...

Fortunately, the girl was not affected.

Perhaps she suddenly thought of something, after a two-minute silence, the silver-haired girl suddenly widened her eyes and then abruptly put down a chess piece in her hand!

The man, who had initially appeared nonchalant, narrowed his eyes upon seeing this scene, revealing an expression of keen interest.

Because of this one move, the game, which was originally at a complete disadvantage, was instantly turned around, and the team directly seized all the initiative.

If this move could be used in a formal game, even a professional player would probably find it difficult to turn the tide!

"Oh? That's a brilliant move~ It seems Gin-chan's chess skills have improved again. You've been working hard to learn lately."

So he smiled and praised the girl opposite him, a look of satisfaction on his face.

Having held the "Dragon King" position for almost twenty consecutive years, his shogi skills are naturally still at the peak of a professional player.

...or rather, the strongest one.

He hasn't lost a single time since he won the Dragon King Battle twenty years ago.

Although he only plays the necessary matches each year, to win the prize money from the Dragon King Tournament and maintain his title, he doesn't play the rest.

But the opponents he encounters are naturally all strong players in the world of shogi.

However, even after all these years, he still hasn't encountered a truly worthy opponent.

A certain "celebrity" has been trailing behind him for so many years, known as the eternal runner-up, but his strength is already at the peak of shogi, and he has never been seen to lose to anyone other than himself.

To be honest, he himself is also losing some interest in the game of shogi.

However, his family didn't agree with him giving up and insisted on forcing him to participate in the competition, which made him very distressed.

However, occasionally teaching these little girls shogi and striking a pose like a "master" to show off is actually quite an interesting thing to do.

"No, my chess skills are worlds apart from Teacher Ye's. This move only slightly turned the tide of the game. We are still evenly matched."

"That's already pretty good. People always have to improve little by little."

"I'm not ready to relax yet."

However, the girl opposite Bai Ye remained calm and replied expressionlessly to his praise.

Even though she had regained some advantages, the girl did not become complacent, but continued to remain calm and indifferent.

But in fact, the girl's hands, which were resting on His's lap and holding the folding fan, were already clenched tightly.

Despite Bai Ye's appearance, it's actually quite difficult to get praise from him for his shogi skills.

Unless you're a complete beginner, you're more likely to receive encouragement, but once you become a professional player, you'll be less likely to comment on it.

If maintaining this level is enough to be satisfied, then we might only be able to stop here in the future.

Are you sure you want to become a professional Go player, and not just playing pretend?

If you want to be unbeatable among girls your age, just stay where you are; you don't need me to teach you.

These were the words Bai Ye had said to her back then.

She even teared up because of those comments, which made Bai Ye a little embarrassed and nervous...

Of course, she apologized immediately and tried her best to recover, and she never cried again!

For her, shogi is the most important thing!

And now, to receive praise after so long, she was naturally a little happy.

Or……

I'm so happy!

Being recognized by her "master" for her improved chess skills is truly her greatest happiness!

Perhaps it was an innate love, but she fell in love with shogi the moment she first saw it.

At the age of two, he could already recite the rules of shogi by heart; at the age of four, he was already watching others play shogi in the shogi hall.

When she was only four years old, she went to a competition called the "Dragon King Battle" and witnessed the ultimate duel...

Then she met the "White Night Dragon King," whom she had always wanted to meet.

The man who won the title of "Dragon King" in the shogi world for ten consecutive years is known as the strongest player in the history of shogi!

The outcome of the match was naturally without any suspense. Even though his opponent also held the title, the middle-aged man still easily lost to this seemingly very young player.

After his opponent won and started celebrating at the hot spring inn, he reluctantly went to "challenge" him!

Yes, it's a "challenge".

In front of a group of Kansai Go players, he challenged the strongest Dragon King.

Of course, even she herself knew that this was absurd and there was no chance of winning.

So she didn't actually want to win; she just wanted to use this method to get closer to the legendary "Dragon King."

After being given a six-piece handicap and still suffering a predictable and crushing defeat, she expressed her desire to become his disciple.

I thought I would be rejected, but after hesitating for a moment, the other person smiled and agreed...

So after that, she would often go to her teacher's place to learn the skills and experience of shogi, and now she has long since become a female shogi player.

He's just one step away from becoming a professional Go player!

only……

"Is there something on my face?"

Looking at the strange girl who had been staring at her since the beginning, she still felt that something was not right.

"N-no, I just think Gin-senpai is really pretty, just like in the novel illustrations and on the cover!"

"...You flatter me."

Even after receiving praise, she still harbored some doubts.

The girl had been staring at her almost the entire time since she first saw her, and she still is.

Praising her appearance is obviously unbelievable.

After all, she felt that she was "ordinary" in appearance, neither very good-looking nor very bad-looking. This girl herself should be quite in line with the general aesthetic, and most people would probably think she is cute.

The only possibility that might concern this girl is probably...

"Haha~ No, I really think she's so beautiful! No wonder she's called 'Snow White of Naniwa'!"
