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..."

Claudia felt the corner of her lips twitching, too speechless to comment on the sight in front of her. Anna herself also smiled amusedly, yet just like her sister, she stayed quiet until the person in front of her broke the silence first. Meanwhile, the person they were waiting to speak to, Sheva, just ignored them completely. He just had his eyes on the table as the boy kept devouring the sweet martabak in front of him greedily.
