Chapter 85 The Birth of Chess

On the lawn outside the castle.

Originally, this place was where the guards, who were injured while fighting the Deep Blue Giant Tiger, recuperated.

But now that their injuries have mostly healed, it's often unoccupied. Sometimes, Antova and Fulon come here to sit, enjoy the breeze, and chat.

And now, a large group of people are scattered around, with Antova, Fulon, Count Akel, and Princess Rica sitting in the center.

Fulon is holding a fluffy blue cub, while Antova has a little leopard in her arms.

Rica is teasing the two, laughing joyfully, while Akel seems quite focused, keeping the conversation going to avoid a lull.

As for the Cat-man, Lin Ke didn't see him, unsure if he had returned.

Initially, Lin Ke thought teaching chess would only take a moment, but unexpectedly, he'd been away for nearly an hour. Fortunately, Antova was quite adept at handling guests.

"Little Lin Ke, you're back!" Fulon waved upon seeing Lin Ke returning alongside Ove.

"Mother!" Lin Ke waved back.
