I just hope to live a leisurely life in the world of anime.

White has the initiative, giving it a better chance to attack and a greater chance of winning than Black, which leads to an imbalance in the game. Therefore, this rule was created to allow the king to quickly retreat to a corner, thus improving the game.

The opponent's king has now moved to c1, and the rook is at d1.

This special movement was originally intended for defense, but its greater purpose is actually to release the vehicle in the corner for attack!

"Black Queen moves from d8 to d3 and takes a unit."

I don't have any pawns in column d, so I need to capture the opponent's pawns in that column. Otherwise, the opponent's white pawn can be promoted as soon as it reaches row 8.

Although I also want to castle, this move will slow down the pace. If the opponent pushes up the E4 pawn, my F3 knight will have to jump back to the queen, which will block my entire base.

Now, I have captured her pawn. She lost two pawns and one elephant, while I have lost one elephant, one horse, and one pawn.

We still lost money...

"White Horse C4 advances to E5."

Want to capture the Empress? Then we'll force you back.

"Black Queen d3 retreat b5".

"White Horse D2 advances to C4."

Is the horse in D4 keeping an eye on the horse in E5?

To be honest, I don't really like making this move in chess because it loses tempo and prevents the knight on d4 from moving.

"The king has changed places."

Black King moved to G8, and the car moved to F8.

"White Elephant E3 advances to F4."

"Black Queen B5 to A4".

"White King C1 to B1".

It's a real pity. If she had captured her a1 pawn with this move, the situation would have been back to normal. She would have had to go back to the starting position.

"Black Queen a4 retreats b5".

"White car G1 into F1".

"Black car A8 enters D8."

These cars are facing off against D1. Let's see if she switches. If it were me, I would probably switch, since I have a slight advantage. Just keep switching and maintain the loss.

really.

"White car D1 enters D8, then eats black car."

"Black E7 returns to E8, eats white cars."

"White Horse C4 retreats to A3".

Is he trying to capture his empress? But can he succeed?

"Black Queen b5 retreats to b4".

"White Horse E5 reverts to C4".

"Black Queen B6 to C5".

"Pawn B2 advances to B4."

"Black Queen C5 back E7".

So that's how it is. Did they force their empress back?

"White Horse C4 advances to E5."

"Black pawn a6 advances to a5."

"Battle Soldier B4 moves into A5, eat..."

Before she could finish speaking, the girl's hand, which was reaching out to grab a chess piece, paused and stopped in mid-air.

Is it a trap...?

She withdrew her hand.

After eating it, he exposed the horse of A3 to his queen of E7.

No, we're moving too fast. We've been on the offensive the whole time and haven't noticed what's behind us.

At this point, if the horse runs away and the soldiers die, it doesn't matter, but the opponent will control the rhythm.

But if we don't run, we'll die in vain and lose out.

"..."

He deliberately positioned the Queen in the middle so he could capture her.

Did they use seven steps to try and gain the upper hand?

He actually succeeded...

"White Horse A3 retreats to C2".

"Black pawn a5 advances to b4, capturing the pawn."

"White pawn C3 advances to B4, capturing the pawn."

"Black pawn moves from C6 to C5."

Should we take this soldier that just delivered us into the enemy's clutches?

No, if I eat from his side, the empress will come out again!

"Battlesoldier B4 advances to B5."

"Black pawn moves from C7 to C6."

...What, are you sending troops to yourself again?

The girl didn't quite understand the game. She blinked her blue-amber eyes and picked up the horse.

You want me to eat, but I'm stubbornly refusing.

"White Horse C2 advances to A3".

The horse can keep an eye on b5's troops here; even if it eats its own troops, it's still a one-for-one trade.

however……

"Black Elephant D8 enters C7".

Got fooled!

Damn it! All their attention is on the Queen!

The opponent's black elephant (c7) and black queen (e7) are aimed at the white horse (e5) on their own!

My horse on E5 is only being watched by an F4 elephant!

The knight cannot move because there is only one square (c4) that it can move to! Once it moves away, the two bishops swap, and the black knight (f6) captures the pawn, giving away the rhythm once again.

Let's see how the horse from A3 jumps to C4 and see what happens to the horse from E5.

No way! If we do that, his black pawn at c6 will capture the white pawn at b5, and he'll force his knight to move, leaving him unable to move his own knight!

Was this guy deliberately drawing attention to the Black Queen?

The girl raised her head, glanced at Ayanokouji Kiyotaka who was silently looking down opposite her, then looked down at Anshu who was watching intently and the long-haired girl with furrowed brows, before refocusing her attention on the chessboard.

"White pawn moves from b5 to c6, capturing the black pawn."

"Black Elephant C7 enters E5, and eats White Horse."

"White Elephant F4 moves into E5 and eats Black Elephant."

"Black Queen E7 enters E5, eats White Elephant."

"White pawn C6 advances to B7, capturing the black pawn."

The opponent lost two pawns and one elephant, while we lost one elephant and one horse.

It's not a huge loss. The rhythm wasn't lost, and the troops in B7 only need to move forward one step to upgrade, so it's not a huge loss.

It's just a pity that the situation has been leveled.

Up to now, our side has lost three soldiers, one horse, two elephants, and one chariot.

The enemy lost four pawns, one horse, two elephants, and one chariot.

Moreover, his own troops at b7 were also stuck because the opponent had just castled, and the rook was still in the last row and hadn't moved, so his troops didn't dare to go down.

No, our own soldiers are dead too.

"Black car F8 enters B8."

Sure enough, the soldiers couldn't escape.

Moreover, the most urgent task now is to get rid of the king in B1! Otherwise, if the black car eats the soldiers and king in B7, we will lose the initiative again.

"White King b1...enter c2."

You can only move to C2; otherwise, if you move to A1 or C1, the opponent's Queen will take your horse.

"..."

"Black Queen E5 to D4".

"White Soldier E4 advances to E5"

'He must use his queen to kill my pawns because his horse is at f6. And the horse cannot jump away, because if it does, his king will be blocked by three pawns at g8, allowing my queen and rook at f3 and f1 to advance unimpeded and deliver a complete kill.'

The girl squeezed the cane that was lying across her knees; the game was already halfway over.

"White Pawn G2 advances to G3".

'This move blocked their own escape route; they were supposed to kill h2's units.'

The boy shifted his feet under the table and changed his posture. He'd play a casual move and see how she would play.

"Black pawn h7 advances to h5".

'Is it a casual game?'
