THE TOWER
"I HEARD you have complaints against me again."
Hmm?
Gyubin blinked rapidly.
She knew that she was dreaming again, but this time, neither Omi nor Sora was there.
Heck, she wasn't even on the beautiful strawberry farm where she would often meet her son.
What's with this boring plain white room?
"I'm sorry— I didn't have the time to decorate my room because I can only meet you for a few minutes."
Omo!
Gyubin gasped when the black rook— yes, that chess piece that looked like a tower— spoke again. She couldn't tell if it was a male or a female, though. "Can you read my mind?"
"Only when you're in my space."
"Are you the System?"
"What do you think?"
Not really.
The rook looked like the tower, so she already realized that she was talking to the Tower itself.
I just asked because I can't believe that the System's big boss is talking to me.
