Naivety

"You asked for it."

Hao Xuan was already smiling even before 89 said anything but after hearing his response he chuckled, "Touché."

Keeping one hand on the wound to stop it from bleeding any further Hao Xuan walked past the dumbstruck Micha and Princess Ceni and stood on the mirror. Still unable to wash away his smile he looked towards 86.

"Since you're here, why don't you take me back too then."

Obviously, this wasn't a request. If he said no there was no reason for Hao Xuan to be polite with them either. It didn't take a genius to figure out what they had done to him so he would be more than happy to get some revenge in that case.

But even more importantly, he didn't really want to fight that two-legged crimson puppet again.

Both 86 and 89 understood where they stood and were smart enough to not make any more trouble.
