You, the grandmaster, the never-losing overlord of chess was facing off against Alastor for his soul. A simple game with a board, clocks, and two strong overlords…well, he was doomed from the very beginning.

He took the bait, just as you wanted, placing your pawn off to the side as he started your clock once more. The people who were watching were doubting your win, how stupid.

Suddenly, the entire room of people went quiet when a single word was spoken out of your mouth.

“Checkmate.”
