Bab 584: Dao Heart.

As this is the self purgatory that Hal's mind has cooked up, we will call the other Hal who has Dark scleras; Purgatory-Hal.

Purgatory-Hal pointed at the seat in front of him and called on the real Hal to take a seat,

"Hello Hal, why not join me for a game of chess?" he said and sure enough, right in the middle of the table was a chess set that had surely not been there a few seconds before.

Hal shrugged but his expression was serious.

This was already not the physical confrontation that would somehow force a contemplation as he had partly expected and he was not going to let down his guard.

As he took a seat, he sensed rather than saw the forty-something man and Sassy step closer and stop behind him to spectate the game.

The pieces on the chessboard were blue and black with the blue being on Hal's side.

It seemed like a regular chessboard but Hal knew there was bound to be a catch.

"White moves first" Purgatory-Hal said.
