At first I dreaded Ex's reaction. But I trusted that he would understand the situation, I mean, he's been Tetris King much longer than me, surely...

"No. I fully understand. I've seen how you struggled to even handle an anomaly... and the... loss." he said

I just nodded.

"Tee. I'll be fully honest with you. I don't think you're capable of being the keeper of dimensions. Let alone even watch the Void. I think your best course of action right now is to train Ess to take your role."

"I've done that."

"Then... the next course of action is probably to send you off to..." He hesitates.

This is the first time he has shown nervousness, or at least after I became Captain and Tetris King. 

"To where?" I asked.

"Another Dimension." He said.

"One that's far away and safe from the Void and as little anomalies as possible."

"I... don't object to that."

But... I'm scared. I can't get fear out of my mind. Maybe I really did fail him.

"Come with me. I'll help with your belongings." He stood up and offered me his hand. I took it.

"Where are we going?"

"A certain Train Station."

"In... Space? Like a Space Station?"

"More like... an Astral Express."

"Huh?"

"A Star Rail."

Hmm...
