On one side of the hall, there was a neat row of stoic humanoid robots, each standing gallantly with their hands by their sides, and their heads held high.
Damion had noticed them when he entered, but they were insignificant objects at that moment, so he had overlooked them. Now that they had been used though, he seemed to fully notice their existence.
What had drawn both of Hakuro's student's attention was a certain robot who had been dismembered by his Phantom Slash. The duo were shocked into silence, and they had no words to say even after half a minute had gone by.
Hakuro was the one who then broke the silence with his nonchalant words. "I'll teach you this technique, but you first need to do something for me."
Hakuro gave them a subtle cunning smile, and Damion felt a tingle in his scalp, the hairs at the back of his neck standing on their ends.
