Chapter 6 - CHAPTER 6

After that, the spirit makes her first move, e4, classic, then Kouhei e5, very classic move, then white horse to f3, the spirit smirks a bit at Kouhei's classic chess response

Then, the spirit moves her piece c6, then Kouhei to e5, spirit to Hf3, Kouhei to Hc6, spirit to Bb5, Kouhei to a6,but...when Spirit take black horse in c6, Kouhei suddenly feels an enermous pain in his body

The spirit noticed this and was amused by Kouhei's pained expression, then, the spirit speaks to Kouhei with mocking tone

"Ah~, i forgot to tell you...if the bet has an life on the line, then the one who bet their life will be taking their organs if they lose a pieces while playing the match, sorry to not told you earlier, it was intentional" says the spirit while hit herself in the head as a mocking gesture

Then, Kouhei speaks in a slightly "frustated" tone

"Oh, thats why...i got it i got it, so thats why you always win...not telling your opponent the full scope of the rules, huh?" Says him as he endured his pain

The spirit just chuckle to herself and gesturing Kouhei move his pieces now, oblivious to Kouhei's plan, hes positioning himself back and ignoring his pain

"Yosh...this should do the trick" says Kouhei to himself in his mind before focusing back to the game

Kouhei instantly recognize the threat from horse in f3 that might eat his pawn in e5 and strenghten the spirit's positions, he thought to himself

"Hm...too predictable, maybe i should hold back myself, for now..."

Then, Kouhei takes white bishop in c6 with pawn in d7, then the spirit decide to do castle, securing her kings from potential attacks from Kouhei's right side of formation that now opened because the Kouhei's take in c6, the games has slowly growing more intense and rapid despite there was no fixed time limit for each of them

The spirit thought to herself

"This human sure are very intresting...hes standing his ground very well, better than any human ive played before, maybe...i can be serious this time..."

Then, the spirit start to analyze the entire board, turn it into a 3D model in her head in instant and start to connecting all the chess pieces relation to one to another

She starts to projects herself as every each of pieces and understands whats they want to go if shes in their positions in the chessboard

Shes also use method where if one of her chess pieces is threathened, she needs to create 1 direct counterattacks & 1 threat, and then doubeled as the game goes

She have make a prediction to 32 moves ahead, with around each scenario contains 2 to 4 direct threat and 7 to 16 potential attack 

She have made 4 to 8 direct countermeasure and 14 to 29 future countermeasure in each scenario, while also counts each of the scenario's movement available to search for potential traps and cracks in Kouhei's defense

The spirit's eyes looking at Kouhei's face that buried under his white hair, the spirit now was curious

"Hm...i wonder whats behind that white hair of him..."

Meanwhile, Kouhei through his long hair that covers his face, noticed the split second of the spirit's eyes darting to him, he knows that the spirit knows what hes thinking, but...then Kouhei mutter to himself

"So, that spirit was extremely good at finding the best current move...okay, maybe i can use that method" Says Kouhei

Then, Kouhei close his eyes and start to visualize each of the game scenario, calculating the best move, setting traps, potential psychological bait to lure him into her trap and counter the spirit's potential attacks to ensures his victory at 100%

In his mind, in his visualiazation, there is 1 board, then, 2 board, then 3, 5 then 8, then 13, then 21, then 34 and beyond, hes using the fibonnachi squence to fastening the process of his calculations of the board

He used it because the fibonnachi squence only require to add the previous number to the squence to know the next squence, faster than the normal brute force calculations, still accurate even if he calculates the potential hidden intended move because fibonnachi allows the previous number of the scenario that have the same intent 

so Kouhei just have the previous scenario that have that scenario the spirit's potential move and extend the scenario calculations to anticipate her move and intention in the match

And with this method, in less than a seconds, hes already able to calculates and visualized 10^94 potential moves made by the spirit

Kouhei knows that with this method, he will able to find her every motives and counters it, even though the move he will make will have to cost him a partial of his body...

In just 2 minutes, each of them has made 61 moves, Kouhei now has lost 1 kidney, his left eye, his left ear and his pancreas

Meamwhile the spirit lost her one of her lung and her stomach, but the spirit doesnt seem to be in pain

But, despite all of his pain, Kouhei still pushing foward through all the pain, then...Kouhei moves his rook to h3 casually, the spirit is surprised by Kouhei's will, stops moving for a miliseconds and thought to herself to analyze the moves

"Wait, if i take his rook with my pawn in g2, then he will able to do a triple attacks to my king, rook and my queen at the same time...i can deflect his focus by rook to c5" thought the spirit to herself

Then, the spirit moves her rook to c5, attacking Kouhei's queen at c3, but...Kouhei simply moves his queen to g3, the spirit was extremely shocked by this, she quickly realized that now she was compeletely trapped by Kouhei

"If i take it wih my queen in g5, his kinght goes to e2 check, my king go to h1, he takes my queen in g3 and hes only 2 to 3 way from checkmating me"

"If i take it with my pawn in f2, then his knight goes to e2, check, my king goes to h1, his rook goes to f1, i got checkmated"

"If i take it with my pawn in h2, i lose in just one move, but...even if i ignore this, then i just lose in one move anyway by his queen to h2 checkmate..."

The spirit then looks at Kouhei, her eyes was full of frustations, her red purple eyes bores to Kouhei's hidden face, she grits her teeth slightly

"What the...? I lost?! H-how...t-to a human on top of that?! This little bra-"

Suddenly...a wind flows in the air, the wind lift Kouhei's white hair from his face, revealing his light blue eyes, upon seeing this, was shocked to her see that the guy that just defeats her, actually looks pretty relaxed...and oddly easy on the eyes...

"Wa-wait...his eyes...that eyes level, its relaxed state...and...his eyes...i cant describe it..."

"I lost...definetly lost to a human, especially to him, but...how come am i doesnt even feel frustated or lost again...? What is happening?"

The crowd near the locations also is able to see Kouhei's full face, the female in the crowd are quickly was stunned by Kouhei's face, they see the softness of the light blue of Kouhei's eyes, the perfect eyelids forms and the slim nose that he have...it stunned them

The male in the crowd is also a bit surprised, what seems to be just an averege guy that have a long white hair, is actually an genius that able to defeat the spirit in Chess and a good looking person

The spirit looks at Kouhei, shes kinda lost in the moment of the wind revealing his face, then, after the wind finishes and Kouhei's face is hidden again, the spirit sighed to herself

Then, Kouhei speaks to the spirit

"Checkmate..." and that, bring back the spirit back to reality

Then, suddenly, a ray of fire comes from the sky and hit the chessboard, it quickly disentragates it into nothing and replaced by spirit's necklace, upon the necklace in the table, the spirit quickly checks her collar, and found nothing

Then, a fire starts to gathers around, its returning both of their organ that lost while in the match, Kouhei then pick up the necklace and put it in his collar shirt

After he put it in his collar shirt, he stood up from his seat

"Hey, nice game...uh, whats your name?" Ask Kouhei to the spirit

The spirit quickly look up at Kouhei as he calls her, she then tells that her name is Oruvi

"Oruvi, eh? Nice to meet you then, Oruvi, by the way...nice game, i hope you can change in the future, well...no, you will...anyways, bye, Oruvi" Says Kouhei as he was about to depart

But then, Oruvi stops him

"Hey wait...i have a question"

Kouhei stop in his track before slings both of his arm to behind his head

"Hm? What is it?" Says Kouhei with curious tone

Then, Oruvi speaks to Kouhei, her tone was a bit softer, contrast to her seductive and mocking tone before the game

"How...are you able to win this game? My technique are extremely effective and hidden, no one ever before this time are able to counter it...how?"

Then, Kouhei smiles a bit, he was a bit amused by this, but he knows that this is the way to bring Oruvi to him

"Ah, that one, huh? Well, simply, i noticed the micro-tense in your forehead and your focused visions to the board, from there, youre likely using branching visualization"

Upon hearing this, the spirit was dumbfounded, how is a mere human, not even above 18 years, was able to defeat her in her own domain

Then, Kouhei turns around and left the place and start a trip back to Yui's house

"See you ater, Oruvi! I hope you can chang-...wait, no"

"You will change..." Says Kouhei to Oruvi before fleeing

The people around the scene are stunned by the result of the game, this is the first time, Oruvi, "The Unbeatable Spirit Chess Player", has been defeated by a human, let alone are below 18 

Then, an elder man emerge from the crowd, his eyes are widens, full of disbelief but...also have a hint of hope in his eyes

"Wait, that person's looks...it...it...it has the same criteria as "The Promised Leader" that carved in an ancient Humanity artifact!" 

"Is says that it promised an leader, that will leads humanity and unite all the races in the world after the defeat of our phrophet 2,000 years ago"

Then, the elder man told thw crowds about the prophecy 

"It says that "The Promised Leader" have a white hair that represents his pure love for humanity"

"Light blue eyes that represents his pure hope for a better world is pure"

"Fearless Will that will leads humanity and all races into unity in the future"

Then, some people in the crowds, are n journalist and reporters, some of them approach the elderly man to interview him about his statement about Kouhei and "The Promised Leader"

"Sir! Did you say that the young man that we just see is....really "The Promised Messiah" that carved in ancient artifact? its true?" Ask one of the reporter to the elderly man

The eldery man then answers the reporters question, his voice is shaking from overwhelming amount of unspoken feelings, feelings of hope to be excact

"Oh, for that...i cant say that, but, not because i dont believe that the young man is "The Promised Leader"..."

"But because i cant describe it anymore, i cant express it, i cant, i believe that he was the hope of Humanit- wait...no!"

"He was the hope of the entire world!"

Meanwhile, Oruvi just sits on her chair, her eyes still in disbelief after her defeats

"Wh-who is he really are?"

"Theres no human in the last 283 Years of my life has ever defeats me in Chess..."

"This person...who is he?"

"Why a person like him exist? This is...beyond what i can comprehend..."

"This person is something else, something...that are beyond my comprehension..."

Meanwhile, Kouhei is walking back to Yui's house, hes holding up his new necklace to see the new obtained necklace in his hand into the sky, his voice is full of satisfaction of his victory

"Yosh...another victory for me...now"

Then, he put back his new obtained necklace in his pocket and hold his hand up towards Takuyura, then he pictures it in his hand, then...he smiled with full of confidence and fearlessness in his eyes

"One big step to the Revolution has been made...let the chaos unfolds in this country..."

"And now...its the time to start my goals to conquer the world..."
