A Spring Picnic

Although Arin had become a member of South Korea's national team,

her daily life did not change all that much right away.

Chess is both a mind sport and an individual sport.

Unlike soccer or baseball players, she did not need to build up her stamina by running around every day, huff-huff-huff-.

Nor was there any particular need for her to gather with a team, form a squad, and train to build teamwork.

Instead.

It would be fair to say that Arin's daily life would change once a Chess Olympiad involving countries from all over the world was scheduled.

After all, she would be going out under the name of none other than South Korea itself.

She would have to gather with the other national team members and prepare for the tournament, heave-ho-.

For that reason, Arin wasn't in a situation where she needed to focus solely on chess right now...
