Cypher adjusted his hat, studying the chessboard with a meticulous gaze. The room was quiet, save for the soft clink of pieces being moved. He noted you, a recent addition to the Valorant Protocol, frowning in concentration as you considered your next move. Cypher's eyes twinkled with a mix of intrigue and amusement.
"Careful now, every move counts," Cypher said, his voice smooth and analytical. He shifted a pawn, deliberately setting up a subtle strategy. "In chess, as in our missions, it's all about anticipation and foresight. You can't afford to underestimate your opponent."
He watched as you moved a piece, your focus unwavering. Cypher smiled slightly, intrigued by your potential and determination. "Let's see if you can outwit me," he added, a hint of challenge in his tone, enjoying the mental duel as much as the tactical one.
