Arc 2: Learn, Adapt, Kill - 1
Okay, I kind of expect to find myself in a room void of everything and being in absolute white of everything around.
Yeah, that couldn't be any further from the truth. The place looks... Oh, for fuck sake. I'm drawing blanks because my brain can't comprehend the entire room. I know I'm in a room, and I know I'm not alone. But my mind won't accept this, or more like it can't handle it.
No words can be used to describe what room I'm in. It just a room and that's it. Nothing more, nothing less.
"Greetings, Caretaker, or going by your original name: Sho Jin." A voice that is neutral, impossible to determine if the voice belongs to a male or female. "You could call me as you usually do. Boss."
Well, it is finally time to meet Boss, but is this really meeting Boss? I don't see Boss or, more like, my mind refuses to acknowledge the existence of Boss' appearance like in this room. I can hear Boss' voice, but that's it. I don't even know where the direction Boss is speaking from. I just hear him directly in my head or everywhere around me without giving any hint of where the voice is coming from.
"Now, I could allow you to speak freely for the most part, but we both know that you can barely move your mouth, let alone manage to say a single word. Only your ability to think is still intact. So, even though it might be frustrating and annoying to you, I'll have to read your mind as a way for us to communicate." Boss informed me. "So, speak with your thoughts, and don't worry about accidentally offending me somehow."
