Rivandy Lex: The Modern Military

Special Episode: Hexagon Chess

September 25, 2025, at 10:00, the military lesson ends. All the students and students of Class I Saintek A breathed a sigh of relief as the quite heavy military lesson ended as well. I who partnered with Nina Alpenliebe immediately stopped our training activities.

Mr. Stephan announced, “Alright! Military studies are over. Now, you can rest in peace. I went to the cafeteria to buy food. Goodbye,” makes students and students rush to the cafeteria.

Me and Nina parted ways while doing our greeting handshake. Nina and I have memorized it. We always do that.

“Rivandy. I'll take Zera to the cafeteria. You can come with Aurora and Evelyn,” invite Nina with a friendly.

“Iya. But, they don't exist. I have to go to the library first to return the book,” explained me while displaying the book to Nina.

“Don't forget to come here soon! I will do something about this weapon,” advised Nina while showing her weapon to me.

“Alright, I'll go. Yea! Nina!” I resigned with my greeting handshake.

“Bye! Rivandy!” Nina replied with the same technique.

After that, I headed to the library while Nina headed to Saintek F's class to invite Zera who likes to sleep in class for no apparent reason.

In the corridor of the academy, I felt a pretty unlucky aura. I looked at the two students who were looking at me sharply. I'm not too worried about that. It wasn't the members of the Prince's Club who were going to arrest me. Denis and Hammer.

Denis and Hammer quickened their pace and did a hug on my body. I'm used to that hug. It was better than being embraced by the members of the Prince's Club.

Before long, Zhukov appeared behind me and called, “Rivandy. You hugged again?” Holding back his laughter.

“Iya,” I replied while looking up with a moment.

“Ri-chan! Let's play Hexagon Chess!” Take Denis and show him his chess.

“Siya, Ri-chan. This game is exciting, you know,” continued Hammer.

“No! I can't play. I have to return the books in the library right now,” reject me while staying away from them.

“Come, Ri-chan! It won't be long, kok,” seduce Hammer rather I'm caught up with the temptation.

“Not to worry! I returned your book. After that, we'll play, Okay?” Zhukov took my book and asked me to play.

“Ok.” I relented with Zhukov's invitation.

After that, Zhukov went to the library and immediately returned the book I borrowed. Then, he went back to where I was and gave a thumbs up as a sign of completion.

Then, we walked to our place so we could play the game without interruption.

After arriving at the place we were headed, I saw two people who were approaching me with sparkling eyes.

“Wah! No prince!” Praise the spirit red-haired student before me.

“Iya. He's a real handsome. Surely he has a girlfriend,” continued the other students.

“Prince! How many girlfriends have you had? I'm the single ngenes this salute you,” praise Andika who holds my hand tightly.

“E ..” I was thinking about those two teenagers.

“”Oh yes. Knowingly. My name is Andika Prasetyo,” replied Andika introducing herself while holding my hand tightly.

“My name is Yudha Rizki Nugraha,” replied Yudha introduced herself.

“Andika, Yudha,” my murmurs memorize their names so I don't forget.

“Dennis. Where's chess? I want to play, dong,” asked Andika while approaching Denis.

“Hammers. I'll beat you,”

Before the game began, I approached Zhukov, who was in a relaxed state, looking at the friendship of Denis, Andika, Yudha, and Hammer. I whisper, “Zhukov, do you know them?”

Zhukov replied, “Before not. But, ever since Denis and Hammer knew them. So, I know them,” casually.

I'm relieved by that. I thought they were strangers who were going to kidnap me. After a fairly familiar introduction, we immediately gathered at a large table and placed a hexagon chess along with a virtual tool.

Before playing, we have to use a virtual tool in our eyes. Then, we fell asleep in the chair provided by Andika before the game began.

Our consciousness moved into a parallel world with the monitor that was inside in front of us. I wrote my name before playing that virtual chess game. How to play it is quite easy. It's like chess in general. Only, this was played by six people.

[Cats, Rivandy! Have Fun With This Game, Yes!]

[You Were Invited by Denis to Play Fun]

[Hopefully Have a Fun Day!]

After that notification, I was taken by Denis' main server. Each of us chooses our favorite color on the monitor in front of us.

[Name] | [Color]

[Rivandy Lex] | [Black]

[Andika Prasetyo] | [Red]

[Denis Spyxtria] | [Green]

[Hammer Rizka] | [Yellow]

[Zhukov Rekovic] | [White]

[Yudha Rizki Nugraha] | [Blue]

After that, we were faced with a Hexagonal shape chess and chess pieces with colors that had been selected by each player. I was dealing with Hammer, Andika was dealing with Zhukov, and Denis was dealing with Yudha.

The game began.I started by advancing my piece to the front. They moved their chess pieces as if they were planning something. I just move the piece slowly. Denis and Andika make their patterns, so they can run their horses.

Hammer and Yudha moved their pawns so they could open up opportunities to move the elephants. Zhukov only made defenses so that they could not break through the enemy headquarters.

I think this is a system of attacking each other. Apparently not. They're working together to bring me down. Zhukov's pawns only fell silent while performing a formation to look for gaps.

“Wait first! Isn't this cheating?” I think there's a weirdo here.

“Why are they all attacking me?”

“Then I lose,” I continue while biting my finger.

I moved the elephant forward to eat Andika's horse. However, my elephant was eaten by Denis's fortress. I tried to move my horse to attack. However, my horse was eaten by Hammer's minister. This makes their chances increase even more to beat me.

Denis laughed with me cornered. He mocked, “”You took 100 years to defeat me, Ri-chan!” Chess abilities.

“Ri-chan can't beat this really great me,” praise her to yourself.

“You're not great. You helped your opponent to take me down,” I quipped with that great Andika ability.

“Before that, you have to lose first to make our friendship,” Hammer dreadlocks let me lose in this game.

“Zhukov, do something!” I leaked to Zhukov who was still focused on defending.

“Sorry, Rivandy! Actually, I lost this game for the first time,” he replied honestly and casually.

“Sial! There's nothing I can do. Except ...,” my mind is fixed on the weakness of this strategy.

I immediately advanced my ministers to lure them I fled to the place of the Hammer King and did skatmat, while the others held on to buy their time.

At that very instant, Zhukov did his pattern to carry out an unexpected attack, so he relied on me so that I could win this fight.

Because the Hammer King was scatmat.he moved his king I moved quickly to make Andika skatmat. Sure enough, Andika could not attack me. He retreated backwards to guard the king.

Zhukov skatted Denis, so that Denis would have to retreat to guard the king. Only Yudha attacked me. I quickly finished off, killing Yudha's ministerial pawn with my pawn. This is my chance to attack.

With the technique I learned from the book, I ate Andika and Hammer's pawns simultaneously. The cornered Andika and Hammer immediately fused their strength to stop the power of my extremely fast countermeasures.

After that, my defensive pawn immediately attacked the weak Yudha. The chance of victory is in my hands. I was the one who didn't expect this to happen. I finished Andika and Hammer's pawns, so they came out of the game because their king could no longer be protected.

Denis was still defending and counter-attacking Zhukov. After I finished Yudha's piece, I attacked Zhukov with my small piece. Zhukov and Denis chose to work together to defeat me.

It's free. With an IQ of 168, I can beat them with my impenetrable pattern. Denis and Zhukov were trying to find a loophole to bring me down. They carried out their combined attacks to make me farthest away with my arrogance.

I don't really want to win. It's just, I was expecting a fun game.

With the chess technique I read in the PDF, I launched an attack that was fatal enough that their defeat was before their eyes.

However, due to the fatal mistake I made, they were able to break through my defense and I made my minister be eaten by Zhukov's horse.

Zhukov who was in his golden opportunity challenged, “Try to defeat us, Rivandy! I already know your weakness.”

I heard the challenge was blocked, “Hmph! Just try you can. I did make a little mistake,” quite casually.

Zhukov and I carried out a desperate attack to determine our victory. We ate each other's pieces in order to end this game.

Zhukov and I drained our brains so we could end this game. I spent time in this parallel world defeating everyone before me. However, that is not how much with people who are already masters with this game.

If they find out my talent for hexagonal chess, I will be recruited by the Esports team (Virtus.pro, Liquid, and Natus Vincere) to win the international competition.

However, something strange has possessed us. We thought of something in the middle of our battle which was quite fierce. We finished our pawns, so we left our little ones.

“Because of you! Ri-chan and Zhukov! I'll win!” The determination of a player who was laughing a little.

Denis launched his king's attack. He ate our pawns voraciously.You and Zhukov were surprised by that. How could he attack with just the king? If he only had a king, then he would come out as a loser. However, this is not. It turned out, all this time in hiding behind me so, I was declared a loser.

Zhukov who saw that had to withstand Denis's attack. However, since he only had pawns, he could not possibly withstand the attack. Denis would have won.

He allowed me and Zhukov to fight. Then, after we fell asleep with that fierce fight, he hid behind and pounced on us behind me.

Shit, I'm off guard again! If I slaughtered Denis' piece first, I wouldn't lose like this.

Moments later, Zhukov was declared to surrender. He could not beat Denis who became an Impostor on the game Among Us.

[Fight Result]

[Denis Spyxtria {Winner}]

[Sukov Rekovic (Lose)]

[Rivandy Lex (Lose)]

[Yudha Rizki Nugraha (Lose)]

[Andika Prasetyo (Lose)]

[Rizka Hammer (Lose)]

Once the results are plastered in the notification by all players, they immediately exit the game and our awareness heads to the real world.

After that, we open up our virtual tools and immediately to clear up the game. Since the clock was showing at 10:25, we had to rush to our respective classes.

After saying goodbye to them, I ran to the library to borrow another book. Then, I rushed to the classroom with the technique “Arctic Warfare : Stealth!” so that I don't get caught by the members of the Prince's Club. But not with Aurora aggressive mode.

When I returned to class, I met Nina and the other students. We continue our military training from the friendly guidance of Mr. Stephan.

We honed our techniques so that we could be recruited by the United Nations to carry out peace missions.

At 15:00, all students are allowed to go home. I split up with Nina and went home soon. Aurora must be waiting for me.

However, before that happened, I saw a girl with a dark feel in a narrow alley. He does not want to bring himself up because of something.

I realized something strange.

“Akishima?”
