No wonder Sutton had insisted on taking her as his master. He’d thought it was just talent- but after tasting the wine she’d poured, he finally understood Sutton’s obsession.

If it were him, he’d probably be just as unable to let go.

Sutton sipped Cassia’s wine, emotions colliding in his chest.

“Kid, take me as your disciple.” Sutton completely cast aside his pride.

Cassia knew Sutton was a true wine fanatic, someone who had devoted his entire life to the bottle.

“I don’t take disciples.”

Sutton looked at Cassia with a bitter, helpless face.

He knew it would end like this.

“But I can teach you–if I have time.”

At that, Sutton was so moved he nearly burst into tears.

“I don’t even know what to call you.”

Back then, when Cassia had first come here, she only said she wanted to learn about wine- she never gave her real name. So, after she left, even if he wanted to find her, he wouldn’t have known where to start.

“Cassia Wood.” After saying it, Cassia looked at Henry. “Your move.”

Henry studied the board, then shook his head. “Ive lost this game.”

Cassia frowned slightly.

“You’ve regressed.”

When she played him, she usually held back–not to prove anything, but to find an opponent who could truly trade blows with her, to feel that full–blooded clash on the board.

Henry was momentarily speechless.

He then lifted his sleeve and cleared his throat. You’re the one who improved.”

Cassia said nothing.

She set down her glass, and everything instantly felt dull.

His chess strength was beneath hers. She used to “give him a rook,” so to speak–yet now, even with her holding back, he couldn’t even force a draw.

Cassia stood and looked at Henry. “When your chess improves, we’ll play again.

“You’re too weak. It’s not fun.”

The words left Henry quietly embarrassed.

“You’re leaving now?”

Henry asked.

Cassia nodded and turned to leave without another word.

Henry stared at her.

Sutton didn’t say anything either.

Randy joined the silence.

Cassia drove Queen back to Dunstino Bay, returned to her room, and powered up her computer to game.

She’d already maxed out the racing game–five stars, rank one across the entire server.

And still, everything felt bland.

Even playing chess with Henry had lost its appeal.

Luckily, she’d recently found another fun chess pp. After registering an account, she could log in whenever she was bored and play a few games.

Before long, online players noticed someone ha suddenly appeared whose style looked eerily similar to the legendary player’s.

Because the resemblance was so strong, people began to wonder whether it was the legendary player herself.

They asked, but she never answered–so over time, they simply got used to calling that account “the legendary player.”

Now, bored again, Cassia logged onto the chess app.

She matched with an opponent and played casually to pass the time.

Her opponent was a user named “Rollercoaster.”

“The legendary player?!” Aspen blurted out.

These past few days, he’d been in seclusion studying chess, playing online to learn.

He logged in and matched randomly–only to get paired with the legendary player?!

Was it just a similar name, or the real one?

Cassia’s original ID wasn’t “Legendary Player.” That was just a title the online players had bestowed on her.

Even in real life, “legendary player” was an honorific the chess world had given her.

Aspen stared at the computer screen.

Creatia.

No punctuation. No special symbols.

Was it really the legendary player?

The real–world one–or just online?

The opponent had already moved.

Seeing that, Aspen’s excitement surged.

Either way, getting a game with someone like this felt like spending a lifetime’s worth of luck.
