I want to be the protagonist when my presence is low

During these five days from the third to the eighth, Kato Takashi had a special training session with Izumi Kinomoto.

It is said that it is special training, in fact, it is playing chess and the teaching of some experience.

The first two days were spent in high-intensity matches, and there was nothing to say, just playing chess all the time, from morning until late at night.

After all, at the level of Kinomoto Spring, pure preaching has no effect, and if you want to improve, you can only rely on constantly playing chess and thinking about yourself.

Except for the first day when Izumi Kinomoto went home to get some change of clothes, he stayed at Kato’s house the rest of the time, and even slept at night in the guest room of Kato’s house.

Although the chess games in the past two days have been very intense, Kinomoto Izumi does not feel tired at all.

To be precise, it should be physically tired, but mentally radiant.

Every time the chess game ends, Kinomoto Izumi feels that he has gained something, and every defeat makes Kinomoto Izumi see his own shortcomings.

Two days later, Izumi Kinomoto could clearly feel the increase in his chess power, which inevitably made him happy and a little more sure of the qualification battle.

The next two days, although they were also spent in constant chess, were different from the previous two days.

In the past two days, Kinomoto Izumi and Kato Keiichi have switched attacks and defenses, and in the past, they used to be according to their own chess style, Kinomoto Izumi attacked, and Kato Kiichi defended, but these two days were completely reversed.

Kiichi Kato took the initiative to attack, and Izumi Kinomoto was in charge of defending.

Although he didn’t understand why Kato Kiichi did this, Kinomoto Izumi did as he was told, just to defend and counterattack.

At the beginning, Kinomoto Izumi was very uncomfortable, and Kato Kiichi’s attainment in offensive chess was not weak, so Kinomoto Izumi lost very crisply, and the defense he laid out was the same as paper paste, and he could not resist Kato Kiichi’s attack at all.

In the back, Izumi Kinomoto gradually adapted to the rhythm of defense, and with Kiichi Kato teaching himself the essence of defensive chess on the side, the two went back and forth.

After these two days, how to say, Kinomoto Izumi feels as if he has not improved much, but if he plays chess with his self two days ago, he must win his current self.

On the last day, Kiichi Kato and Izumi Kinomoto did not play chess, but chatted all day.

The topic of conversation has nothing to do with chess, from the world situation to the anecdotes in the neighborhood, it is simply everything to talk about, and the two seem to have forgotten that there is such a thing as chess.

Thanks to the blessing of this chat, Kinomoto Izumi’s originally restless heart because he was going to participate in the battle slowly calmed down, and he also understood Kato Kiichi better, and his relationship with his future father-in-law was much better.

At least now Kato Takashi looks at Kinomoto Izumi more and more pleasing to the eye.

During these five days, every time Megumi Kato returned home, she would sit silently next to Izumi Kinomoto, watching him play chess with his father.

Whenever Kinomoto Izumi felt thirsty, Megumi Kato would silently hand him water to drink, like a virtuous wife.

Izumi Kinomoto also felt warm in this wordless care.

It is worth mentioning that Kinomoto Izumi successfully worshiped Takichi Kato as a teacher during these five days.

He is not related to Kato Takichi, but he takes such care of himself in chess, so it is not at all too much to call Kato Takashi “Master”.

At first, Kato resolutely refused.

Kinomoto Izumi, this kid, what’s good about being an apprentice, it’s not fragrant to be a son-in-law!

But Naga Kino Moto Izumi was resolute, and in the end, Kato Takaichi agreed with the idea that it would be good to become a disciple before becoming a son-in-law.

In this way, Izumi Kinomoto became the second disciple under Kato Takichi, no, strictly speaking, it should be the third disciple, the master sister Megumi Kato, and the second senior sister Kuginko.

After Kugiko knew about this, he jokingly asked Kinomoto Izumi to call her senior sister,

In this regard, Kinomoto Izumi did not have any water chestnuts, and naturally called “Senior Sister”.

This made Empty Silver a little embarrassed, and when she heard Izumi Kinomoto call her “Senior Sister”, she unfolded the folding fan in her hand and “hid her face” and fled.

At the same time, Ku Yinzi decided in his heart that he must work harder to improve his chess power in the future, but he couldn’t leave the little junior disciple of Kinomoto Izumi too far behind!

Early in the morning of the 8th, in front of Kato’s house

Izumi Kinomoto had a small suitcase and was about to go to the Tokyo Chess Institute to participate in the first battle of his battle for the title, and the reason for bringing his luggage was to stay in Tokyo for four days, so he had to bring some change of clothes.

As for accommodation, the seminar has long arranged hotels for chess players participating in the battle for ranks, and they can check in directly with relevant documents.

“Master, I’ll go first!” Izumi Kinomoto waved goodbye to Kiichi Kato, who was standing in front of the door.

“Izumi boy, don’t disgrace your teacher! If you encounter any trouble in Tokyo, you can go to your old friend, Katsuya Watanabe! ”

Although he and Kinomoto Izumi are already a master-apprentice relationship, the title of him has not changed, and he is still shouting as a “spring boy”.

“Well, I know, I will definitely bring the ‘elephant’ title back!” After these days of special training, Izumi Kinomoto has become more confident.

…….

As before, take the JR line to Tokyo Station, and then take the bus to the Chess Institute.

The first qualifying round starts at 8:30 and takes place in a best-of-five format.

Unlike the two that opened at eight o’clock on the second day, the door of the research society opened early due to the holding of the battle for the title.

So Izumi Kinomoto went straight in and waited for the start of the match, and the opponent in the first round he roughly knew was a thirty-year-old uncle who was promoted to Kudan only last year, and his strength was not very strong in all Kudan’s hands.

Although he was waiting, Kinomoto Izumi did not choose to play with his mobile phone or find someone to chat, but chose to close his eyes and recharge his strength for his next first battle.

Due to the low sense of existence, naturally no one else came to chat with Kinomoto.

At eight o’clock, when his name was mentioned on the electronic announcement, Kinomoto Izumi felt a chill in his heart.

Is it finally here?

When he opened his eyes full of fighting intent, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.

What’s going on?

Didn’t I just close my eyes for a moment?

Where did this beautiful black silk girl in the bunny girl uniform in front of you jump from?

In the morning, can you still let people play chess well!

Coincidentally, at this time, the bunny girl also looked at Kinomoto Izumi, and the two looked at each other!
