‘Compensation’ Gift
{I really can't believe it! There is no way someone is listening to this, right?}
The voice that I heard was naturally that of the old man who imparted the 'Icy Fire Formula' to me, but his words made no sense!
He spoke as if he was talking to me yet denying my existence. Simply following the logic of legacy acceptance before, this was undeniably a recorded message, but why would a recorded message start in this manner?
{Ahem, you can stop talking now, you finally agreed to record this message and let me be the one to do it so there is no taking it back!}
'Oh?'
As the recorded message went on in my mind, the voice suddenly changed, it still appeared to be the voice of someone old, but it felt a little bit more energetic and carefree.
