Hogwarts underachiever

"I have played chess." Ian answered truthfully. Judging from the chess pieces, there is not much difference between the two chess games.

And Lei once said that he played chess fairly well.

This is just a trick that the talkative Lei said.

"That's not a big problem. The rules are similar with just a slight change." The strange wizard adjusted the chessboard and arranged the white pieces in front of Ian, "The white piece goes first."

Ian is not slow, his thinking is relatively quick.A few words of communication in the chess game quickly made him understand how to control the chess pieces, how to achieve the strategic goals he wanted, and how to put pressure on his opponent and make him uncomfortable.

The man obviously felt something that made him happy from this chess game. Apart from those things related to chess, he had a lot of gossip, "You are a subsidy student, please don't go to the carriage for a while~ It's not interesting, in case you are Those pesky Slytherins might get into trouble if they find out who you are."

"I'm not afraid of trouble." Ian muttered, moving the chess pieces.

The knight's sprint crushed the soldiers, and the broken wizard chess turned into withered bones after an extremely realistic wailing sound and merged with the scene on the chessboard.

The chess pieces of both sides also had different morale fluctuations for this battle.

"What about you, why are you in this carriage?"

"Guess." Pinch his goatee, the wizard did not want to directly give his opponent the information he wanted.

"You are Aunt Mary's family, you don't look like a flight attendant anyway."

"How did you know that I was a relative of Mary?"

"There is a piece of wrapping paper on your shoe. It looks like it has been stuck there for a long time. You should be working in a magic joke shop, but you really don't behave like a qualified worker."

"Haha." The wizard seemed very satisfied with this statement, "Of course, there is no flight attendant like me. My name is Dorac Elma, and Mary Elma is my mother. She always wanted me to inherit her family's shop. .”

"And you are the child of the Xenas family, right?"

Ian was slightly wary of his reputation. Was he so famous?

That's quite an honor.

"Elma's family turns out to be more than just a candy and toy business."

"Looks like I guessed it right"

Ian interrupted him, and at the same time, the pressed chess pieces brought back the somewhat unbalanced chess game, "You guessed it wrong, my name is Ian Sahaman, and I am not a child of the Shenath family. I and that The family can only say that there is some relationship."

"Hey~ I have nothing to say if you want to be serious like this." Dorak rubbed his hands, "The shops near Hogwarts can indeed live well on the consumption of those students, but the real value is not these rules. Small business within.”

The situation on Ian's side has become a bit serious, and it seems too late to start the educational chess game seriously from now on.

Dorak is very good at wizard chess, which is why he always likes to bring the chessboard to trouble the train conductor.

Ian was caught off guard by the sudden change in the chess game.

"Following the rules in this world can only bring stability, it cannot bring victory." Dorak moved his soldiers to complete the first threat to King Ian's flag, "What can bring victory is often that A small action that does not violate the rules, but is contrary to the rules."

Ian straightened his expression, "So you are the smart person who is always accompanied by victory."

The movement of the chess pieces quickly resolved the crisis.

"I didn't say that, but sometimes it will give rise to some emotions. And it will generate some interest. I hope it can give the confused teenager some way out."

One wrong move, and the situation in front of Ian suddenly became riddled with holes.

Dorak's offensive was aggressive.

"It seems that someone has already targeted me. It is said that the Schnauz family has a long history, and there must be many people who will keep an eye on it and not let go of any weaknesses."

"Hmm~ You're not entirely right, but it's a bit interesting." Dorak enjoyed the feeling of driving his prey to death bit by bit.

"But have you ever thought that in many cases, small actions that go against the rules are not as effective as steady and aboveboard actions." Ian suddenly changed his attitude.

The chess game also changed with his mood.

Dorak's offensive was delayed, and the white chess pieces on the chessboard seemed to be going crazy to withstand the attack, delaying the defeat at any cost.

But this counterattack is actually meaningless.

Dorak seemed a little unhappy, "This game is just for teaching, maybe we can just try it again."

"Really? Let's try it again." Ian bit his nails without showing any intention of agreeing.

"What's the point of procrastinating like this?"

At this point in the chess game, Ian's defeat is almost certain, and it can be easily calculated that his king will be stripped of his crown after a few rounds.

But Ian's resistance was still so resolute, and he felt like he was fighting to the death to prevent the other party from winning happily.

"I just want you to see clearly when we have to be aboveboard, such as when we have too much advantage, and when we have too much disadvantage."

Ian moved the chess piece in front of him for the last time.

In the next step, Dorak can claim his victory.

But he stopped and said, "Haha~hahahahaha it's interesting."

After saying that, he smoothed the chess game, the magic chessboard returned to its original state, and the chess pieces climbed back onto the chessboard.

"Let's bet something, and if you lose we'll talk about a deal you might be interested in."

"You should have seen that I would not be interested in that kind of deal. If possible, who would be willing to be a chess piece instead of a chess player?" Ian sat up straighter, became serious, and at the same time warned Lei again not to be a chess player. Talkative on the side.

"Then do you accept my challenge?"

"Who is White? Let's toss a coin." Ian replied.

Dorak felt his blood rushing. Sure enough, the train conductor with the old-fashioned chess skills was no longer a good opponent.

It would be a bit powerful to have such a young and aggressive kid fight him to the death.

He took out the notebook and quickly wrote on it: Dorak vs. Ian 00.

The sound on the other side of the door told the two people in the carriage that Aunt Mary had returned to the carriage.

Of course, the two guys at this moment were completely unable to hear.

"When did you get to the car, Dorak, and you are like this? Your father will be so angry when he can't find you."

Dorak was a little embarrassed, "Mom, I'm playing chess."

"You know how to play all the time, so you leave all the things in the store to your father. There is a little girl at home who needs to take care of you. Do you want to keep him busy?"

"Mom~"

Ian raised his eyelids and glanced at the other party, secretly judging whether the flaws revealed by the other party were really interfered by off-site interference or simply to lure him into taking the bait.
