Chess players have no future in Indonesia!

That was what Adrian Sheva, a 17-year-old boy from the most crowded district in Jakarta, said to convince himself that delving into the chess world would be a waste of time. He didn't even bat his eyes after getting the system that would help him become the best chess player in the world. No, it is better to work in a food stall and earn money honestly. 

However, it seems that the people around him disagree. They all see the talent hidden in Sheva - although Sheva himself insists that it all comes from the system - and force him to go deeper into this world. As he accumulates more experiences, playing more tournaments, making new friends, and fighting against new rivals from other countries, and winning some glories for his country, slowly but surely, this game starts to grow on him. Until in the end, he finally looks back at his journey from the bottom, Sheva cannot help but smile and say,

"Oh, well... It seems that this game is not as bad as I thought..."

"Um?!" Sheva snapped his head instantly when he heard the unfamiliar voice. Not just him, everyone also did so, just to be stunned to see a gorgeous girl smiling politely at them all. Even though she wore a hijab, it wasn't enough to hide her perfectly proportioned face. The dimple in the corner of her mouth when she smiled was enough to make all the boys around her fall in love immediately. Fortunately, Sheva was a shy boy by nature, so he didn't dare to stare at her for too long. "Uh… Miss… Is there anything I can help you with?" He coughed a little, trying to get rid of the awkwardness in the air.
