Unexpected Contact

-No, what in the world... how.

A flustered voice could be heard from beyond the pattern.

Just as I had recognized my opponent, they had recognized me. Since we had met just a few days ago, we would at least recognize each other's voices.

-You... how are you contacting me?

"Well, should I say I was lucky enough to acquire it?"

-...

A brief silence followed.

To be honest, it was because I didn't really have anything to say.

I had just tried it because I had the means to contact her, not because I had any particular purpose...
