Zongman: Start by taking down the Dragon King and meet Zi

The two have known each other for more than half a year now, and their relationship has become much closer than when they first met.

After eating and drinking, I chatted with Futaba Rio in the laboratory for a while. Then it was time for class, so we packed up and left.

At school, Dongfang Chen's day is rather boring and monotonous.

During class time, I would listen to the lectures if I was interested, and would sleep or play with my phone if I wasn’t interested. During lunch break, I would basically be with Futaba Rio, and I would go home directly after school in the afternoon.

As for the club, I have no interest in it at all. It would be more comfortable for me to go home and do nothing.

Just like that, the short two months of the third semester of the first year of high school passed in a flash.

Nothing special happened in the school during his time there, and occasionally he would see Eriri Sawamura hanging around his class in the corridor.

Every time Dongfang Chen looked at her, she would leave as if nothing had happened. He always felt that she was looking for him, but was far away from him, and he couldn't figure out what she wanted to do.

It couldn't be that she came to thank Dongfang Chen for sending her to the health room on the first day of school.

Dongfang Chen also pretended not to see her.

Outside of school, for the past three months, Dongfang Chen has gone to the Shogi Association every week to participate in the Shogi competitions organized by the association.

In fact, it is some powerful chess players who, with the encouragement of capital, come to challenge him, the new Dragon King.

Of course, not every small fry is qualified to challenge him, and he will not accept everyone's challenge.

To challenge, one must be a professional chess player of 6th dan or above, and there are also professional chess players of 8th dan among them.

But in the end, they all became stepping stones for him, bringing him an amazing record of 11 consecutive victories!

Now some guys in the shogi world have even given him the title of the strongest dragon king.

Of course, playing so many competitions is not in vain. Each game has a huge prize money, ranging from several million yen to tens of millions of yen.

With his eleven-game winning streak, he also won a bonus that was a little more than a small goal, and his pockets were bulging!

……

Friday, September 3st.

The head teacher announced a two-week spring break. The next time I come to school, I will be a sophomore in high school.

At the end of March, the ground warmed up and Tokyo had already welcomed the New Year.

The green plants on the roadside are vying for beauty, and the cherry blossoms are also in full bloom.

On March 3, in order to deal with the Shogi Association, he, the Dragon King, had to show up from time to time.

ps: Little Loli is about to appear...

Chapter 20 You are back, Master!

Going to the Shogi Association to show up actually just means going around somewhere, or if you're interested, playing a few games of Shogi with some members of the association.

Because the headquarters of the Shogi Association is also in the Chiyoda area of ​​Tokyo, it only takes more than half an hour by bus to get to his rented house.

Dongfang Chen remembered that Kong Yinzi said she would come to his house today, so he went to the headquarters of the Shogi Association in the morning and prepared some nutritious food to bring home on the way home, such as meat.

He came to a convenience store close to his home.

"Welcome~Huh? It's Dongfang-san!"

Nanami Aoyama looked at the person who came and a smile appeared on her face.

"Well, Qingshan is here to work again? It seems like a new person came some time ago." Dongfang Chen was a little confused.

Aoyama Nanami forced a smile and said, "Before, I had some problems with school selection, so I resigned for a while."

In fact, it was because she was working three jobs at the time and was too busy to handle it all, so she had to give up one job first.

"I see, Aoyama-san really works hard!"

A girl who keeps working hard for her dream is worthy of admiration.

Aoyama Nanami's smile disappeared instantly. She lowered her head slightly and pursed her lips. Then she raised her head with a faint smile: "Thank you, Dongfang classmate."

Dongfang Chen looked at her misty eyes and said, "This is not something to be thankful for."

For some people, emotional breakdown only lasts for a moment.

He didn't say anything more and went to select the ingredients that needed to be prepared.

A chicken, red dates, wolfberries, dried mushrooms, steak, broccoli

……

Various ingredients were prepared, including, of course, Kong Yinzi's favorite sauces, including one bottle each of tomato flavor, curry flavor, beef flavor, etc.

Although the food he made was already delicious enough with his LV4 cooking skills, Kong Yinzi was particularly obsessed with the sauce...

During this period, the two of them might not see each other for a month, and it has been more than a month since they last met.

We must prepare something delicious this time!

He took all the things to the front desk, and Nanami Aoyama quickly scanned the codes and packed them.

Nanami Aoyama: "Houfang-san, the price is 32300 yuan."

"OK, all right."

He took out his wallet and handed her the money. After she gave him the change, he said:

"See you next time, Aoyama-san. Make sure you get more rest!"

Dongfang Chen picked up a big bag and left.

"Okay, I'll pay attention to that. Thank you, Dongfang," she responded.

Not long after, he returned to Aoki Apartment, but before he entered the door, he saw a black aura unique to evil spirits floating out of his room.

"Hmm? Where did the evil spirit come from?"

Dongfang Chen was a little confused. Since he moved to Qingmu Apartment nearly a year ago, he had completely eliminated all the evil spirits he encountered. So much so that a few months ago, very few evil spirits dared to approach Qingmu Apartment within a kilometer.

Now there are evil spirits running into his house?

He took out the key and opened the door as if nothing had happened. When he saw the little man kneeling at the entrance, a question popped up in his head: "?"

Where did this little Loli come from?

When Dongfang Chen was in a daze, the little girl looked at him nervously.

She folded her hands on her lower abdomen and said loudly, "You are back, Master!"

She has long brown hair in two ponytails with a red hairpin and a yellow hairband on each side. She has sapphire-like light blue eyes and bangs in front of her forehead.

He wore a white hat on his head, but it couldn't cover up the sticky hair on top of his head.

She was wearing a white shirt and a blue skirt with a yellow tie at the collar and white hem. She was wearing a pair of white socks and blue shoes.

"Master~Master~Did you hear that? Master..."

Behind her, an evil spirit in a suit, with a head twice as big as its body and jealous, twisted and disgusting facial features, kept muttering.

There was also streams of poisonous gas coming out of his mouth, which made Dongfang Chen's face turn black.

The evil spirit is really hard to describe.

Rikka Takanashi jumped out of the house and pointed at the little loli who was still kneeling on the ground: "Thunder Master, you are finally back. A mutated Snorlax has broken into the barrier you set up."

"So, why are you at my house again? Didn't your sister teach you a lesson the other day?"

Dongfang Chen's brows twitched.

If you don't get beaten for three days, you'll dare to go up to the roof and tear down the tiles, right?

"Hmph, although I can't defeat the Saint Conditioner, the Evil King's True Eyes are not afraid of any powerful enemy!"

Rikka Takanashi takes out an automatic umbrella from the side of her thigh and strikes a pose.

"That's not what you said when you got spanked."

Dongfang Chen rolled his eyes at her, then looked at the little Loli on the ground: "Then, who are you and why did you come to my house?"

Dongfang Chen naturally recognized this little girl. According to the original trajectory, she was a disciple of Jiutou Long Yaichi.

However, although he recognized her, they had never met before, so Dongfang Chen naturally couldn't call her out by her name directly.

Is it because he disrupted the original world line and captured the Dragon King, so this girl came to find him?

Facing Dongfang Chen's questioning, Hinazuru Ai straightened her back and stammered in response, "Well, well, Chuchu... ah~"

Before I could finish my words, I bit my tongue nervously...

Chapter 21 Chief Disciple - Hinazuru Ai

"Don't be nervous, just speak slowly."

Seeing that she was in so much pain that tears were coming out, Dongfang Chen quickly comforted her.

"Uh-huh."

Hinazuru Ai nodded and wiped her tears. After adjusting herself, she said again: "Nice to meet you. My name is Hinazuru Ai, and I am here to take you as my teacher!"

"How old are you and where did you come from?"

Dongfang Chen thought to himself that he was indeed here to become a disciple, but he still had to ask about the child's situation.

"Master, Ai is 9 years old this year and in the third grade of elementary school. I came here from Ishikawa Prefecture specifically to become your disciple!"

Ishikawa Prefecture is more than 400 kilometers away from Tokyo. This little girl is really brave to dare to run so far alone.

"I haven't agreed to take you in as my disciple yet, so you don't have to call me Master. One more question, how did you know I live here?"

Although Dongfang Chen has never hidden his itinerary and place of residence, no one would keep an eye on him, right?

Not to mention the exact address.

"I, I asked a reporter named Hu and found out that someone had held a shogi competition in our hotel before..."

Dongfang Chen knew who Hinazaru Ai was talking about.

Machi Kōgohan is not only a female shogi player with a title, but also a reporter for "Shogi World". Her pen name is Ku, and she is well-known in the Kansai shogi world.

If it was that guy, it was not impossible that she would reveal her information, and he couldn't figure out what the noble lady was thinking.

"I know the general process. However, there are many famous chess players in Ishikawa Prefecture, including several 8th dan. It would be okay to take them as my teachers, right?"

"I don't want it!" she shouted.

"I want to be Mr. Dongfang's disciple. Because Mr. Dongfang is the Dragon King. I heard from the adults that the Dragon King is the strongest. I also want to be as powerful as Mr. Dongfang.

Besides, the teacher is young and handsome..."

Dongfang Chen shook his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "Even if you become my disciple, it is almost impossible for you to become as strong as me. What's more, even I am still far from the so-called strongest!"

The master can only lead you to the door, but the practice still depends on yourself.

His talent in shogi is not even as good as Sora Ginko's. If he couldn't rely on the cheat system, it would be difficult for him to even become a professional shogi player.

Cheating yyds!

On the road of shogi, without strong enough talent, even if you work hard, you are destined not to go far.

Of course, Hinazuru Ai does have a unique talent for chess and possesses a strong ability to predict the future!

"I don't care. I just want to be Mr. Dongfang's disciple. He must be the strongest!"

Hinazuru Ai stared at him with her big eyes.

Dongfang Chen smiled and said, "Oh, since you want to be my disciple so much, then let's do the worship ceremony later!"

"Eh!?"

Hinazuru Ai blinked her big eyes, as if she didn't expect Dongfang Chen to agree so.

Immediately, she jumped up happily and rushed towards Dongfang Chen: "Master~"

……

In the hall, Dongfang Chen was sitting on a stool, while Hinazuru Ai was kneeling in front of him obediently.

Dongfang Chen said, "We don't need to go through those complicated procedures. Just love you and give me a cup of tea."

"Yes, I will serve tea to Master right away!"

She smoothly picked up the tea that had been prepared beside her and respectfully handed it to Dongfang Chen: "Master, please have some tea~"

Dongfang Chen took a sip and nodded: "Then, from today on, Ai Ni will be my Dongfang Chen's chief disciple!"
