When Sheva saw Ummi push her D pawn two squares forward as her first move, his eyes lit up instantly. He had been saving the platinum-level knowledge inside his head for this occasion. Of course, he could test it against Anna or Claudia during their sparring games. However, Sheva held back, wanting to test the knowledge in a real game, and this time, against the best player in the section, a prodigy just like Anna, he finally had a chance to show off.
'Let's see how well she is prepared for the Dutch!'
As he pushed his F pawn two squares forward, it was clear that Ummi didn't expect this. A small frown could be seen on her face, taken aback by Sheva's surprise opening. After all, it wasn't quite easy to play the Dutch. Both players had to be ready for everything since frontal confrontation was unavoidable.
