Please, help me stay motivated by keep sending me your power stones and golden tickets! There will always be extra chapters when we cross the threshold that I set. Thank you very much! -0- Chess players have no future in Indonesia! That was what Adrian Sheva, a 17-year-old boy from the most crowded district in Jakarta, said to convince himself that delving into the chess world would be a waste of time. He didn't even bat his eyes after getting the system that would help him become the best chess player in the world. No, it is better to work in a food stall and earn money honestly. However, it seems that the people around him disagree. They all see the talent hidden in Sheva - although Sheva himself insists that it all comes from the system - and force him to go deeper into this world. As he accumulates more experiences, playing more tournaments, making new friends, and fighting against new rivals from other countries, and winning some glories for his country, slowly but surely, this game starts to grow on him. Until in the end, he finally looks back at his journey from the bottom, Sheva cannot help but smile and say, "Oh, well... It seems that this game is not as bad as I thought..."

Pillow of Hearts: A tale between the warm hug and cold coffee

Pillow of Hearts: A tale between the warm hug and cold coffee

Moon Young Jae’s homophobic family considered him a disgrace and held his freedom in their clutch. Even with being obedient, he was not free from their abuse. Young Jae was almost blinded and crippled by his father when he stood up for himself for the first time. Left to bleed and die, luckily, he did have a family who wanted to save him. It was twin cousins, who were disowned long before him, who saved him. Sad and hopeless, Young Jae became curious when he met his cousins’ friend, who understood him better than anyone, even without words. Curiosity got the best of him, and he ended by handing his heart, love and soul over a plater as a price. Slowly, Young Jae fell in love with everything about and around Min Jun and eventually fell for the man. Calculative Wang Min Jun entered Young Jae’s life accidentally. He challenged Young Jae's belief with a warm smile and flipped Young Jae’s world upside down. Min Jun read Young Jae like an open book. He planned to get over the little crush he had on his seniors' cousin brother but failed miserably. Min Jun did not like the often-visited ‘frown’ between those beautiful eyebrows and even the always singing of ‘sigh’ through those sinful lips. Min Jun made it his mission to change it only to fall for everything about Young Jae. Wang Min Jun carried his share of baggage, but he was well-prepared to meet the demons from the past head-on. But Young Jae became a mess whenever his past demons decided to pay a visit. He realised he did not have to face anything alone as he has a wonderful boyfriend who cherishes everything about him. Both faced their past demons and trauma together. When a person betrayed by a family fell in love with a person who holds his family above everything, sparks flew, and hearts soared in happiness. Will their story has a harmonious bell, or would it be a sea of misery? Teaser: Files were shattered all over Min Jun’s bed, and his laptop was placed on the bedside table. It chimed once in a while, indicating a new email for him to check. The work was piling more and more as he was diligently finishing it. Young Jae walked into his boyfriend’s bedroom to witness his handsome lover working hard. "Jun Jun! Are you busy?" Even though Young Jae did not want to disturb his lover, he knew he needed some help to impress his boss. "Never for you, love. Tell you what you need?" Min Jun did not lift his head from the file he was going through, but the warmth in his voice reached Young Jae's heart without fail. "Do you have a minute to help me in reviewing my monthly internship report? I have to present to our boss tomorrow morning." Young Jae pouted as he asked. Min Ju looked at his adorable tokki and smiled mischievously. "You are brave, asking your superior to help you sneakily. I can't do it for free. I need a huge bribe to help you. What are you planning to offer?" "Be serious. You have too much work to do." Young Jae chided his shameless boyfriend, who never failed to seize every opportunity to make him moan and groan as he takes him to the pleasurable heaven. "Exactly. I have too much work to do. If I am taking my time to help you, I need something in return. Something so tempting that I don’t mind cramping lots of things later." Min Jun smiled like a devil he was as he grabbed Young Jae towards him. The little rabbit who fell into the cunning wolf's lap did not even get a chance to protest as he was devoured breathlessly. Young Jae forgot why he entered the wolf's lair altogether. Min Jun pushed the files away to make space for his little rabbit to lay down comfortably. Young Jae’s report was long forgotten as a treacherous hand started to caress him again under the shirt as a sinful sound filled the room. P.s: The cover belongs to the rightful owner, and it will be removed if the original owner asks to do so. WARNING: THIS IS A GAY LOVE STORY WITH BDSM.

Army chess, turning chess
The rules of the game were as follows: The game was composed of two players, one player showed the military flag in the military chess game, and the other player played the game. The pieces on each side would be turned over and placed in the center of the board. The right side would have a red flag and the left side would have a white flag. At the beginning, each side of the game was placed in the same pattern as the corner of Richard's chessboard. Each game had to be turned over to launch an attack, and each game was not allowed to be turned over multiple times, otherwise it would be considered cheating. Each time the two sides move, they must attack the two sides of the chess pieces surrounded by other chess pieces, or move to subdue the other chess pieces to win the game. The position of the chess piece was not allowed to be repeated, otherwise it would be considered cheating. If the face of the turned chess piece was a white flag, the white chess piece would be used to launch an attack and place a piece. If the face of the turned chess piece was a red flag, the red chess piece would be used to launch an attack and place a piece. When all the chess pieces were placed, the flag must be placed in a position where it could be attacked. When the number of turns reached the specified conditions, the game ended. The specific rules and winning conditions may vary according to different military chess games.

Military Chess: Flipping Chess Techniques
The strategy for turning over the military chess game included the following points: 1. At the beginning of the game, try to occupy as many camps as possible, especially the middle camp, to block the other party's actions and provide convenience for yourself. 2. When playing chess, you can choose to play chess in the position where the two big pieces of your side radiate at the same time. This way, even if the other side plays chess next to one of the big pieces, the other big piece can also kill. 3. If the boss of the enemy was the commander and there was a kid of the enemy beside him, the kid could enter the camp. The commander could hide two steps away from the place where the chess pieces were turned, and at the same time, he could ensure that the chess pieces that were turned could not escape quickly. In this way, the commander could safely kill and injure the enemy without being intimidated by the bomb. 4. When flipping the board and moving the camp, you can choose to flip the board next to the regiment commander, hoping to flip the pieces on your side to help your side occupy more camps. 5. When the opponent enters the middle camp, you need to choose a suitable position to prevent the other party from entering the camp you want to occupy from the middle camp, thus sealing your pieces or killing your pieces. 6. Don't play chess around the opponent's high-level chess pieces, such as the commander, commander, or bomb. Once your chess piece is played, there will be a delay in your escape. If you play, you can only wait for death. 7. In the early stages, one should not pursue the number of chess pieces, but try to clear as many mines as possible. This was because the engineers were the only chess pieces that could travel on the rails. They were very mobile and could launch a surprise attack in the later stages. The enemy's flag might not be protected. 8. Don't ignore the life and death of the kid. Pay attention to the platoon leader, company commander, and other chess pieces, because their existence will affect the winning rate. In summary, the above are some strategies for military chess. I hope it will be helpful to you.

Is chess a sport?
Title: Are Chess - like Competitions Sports? In general perception, sports are often associated with intense physical activities such as running, jumping, and swimming. However, chess - like competitions also deserve to be considered as sports. First of all, chess - like activities are highly intensive mental sports. The art of a chess game lies in its rigorous conception and infinite changes. A chess player has to think deeply about every move. They need to consider the relationship between parts and the whole, gains and losses, as well as general rules and special changes. Moreover, they have to anticipate their opponents' moves and tactics. This is quite similar to other competitive sports. Although a chess piece weighs only a few grams and players just sit face - to - face, a single chess game in large - scale competitions may last for hours before a winner is determined. This long - duration process greatly tests the players' physical strength and willpower. And the exercise of endurance can also strengthen their physique. Secondly, like other sports, chess has a complete training and competition system. There are professional chess players, coaches, and referees. The Swiss system and round - robin system adopted in the chess competition system are similar to those in other sports. In city - level, provincial - level, and national - level competitions, most of the certificates awarded to the winners are stamped by the General Administration of Sport. The organizers are mostly sports - related departments. Outstanding chess players can be selected to obtain titles such as national first - class athletes and master sportsmen. Meanwhile, there is also a national team leading chess players to train in professional bases in preparation for international competitions. Finally, just as in other sports, chess has strict competition rules. Both sides compete under equal conditions, which is a competition of intelligence and skills. All these aspects show that chess - like competitions can be regarded as sports. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
