While Sheva was still entangled in this fight, he didn't notice that someone was observing the game from afar. That person was none other than Gukesh, as he came here to scout, probably his biggest competitor in this tournament.
Yeah, even though his friend, Arjun, was here, it pained him to say that Sheva was still the biggest threat here. At least, he had a lot of experience fighting against Arjun, what with them being the sparring partners so many times in the past. However, Sheva was a complete anomaly for the boy.
He could still remember their last meeting.
Honestly, though, if it were any normal opponent, Gukesh wouldn't even bother to remember that. After all, the game itself wasn't really that special, and at that time, Sheva's rating was still quite low. What, around 2300 to 2400, right?
