Ten meters ahead, a clean, silent trench opened in the soil, the edges glowing faintly from sheer kinetic friction.
Danial smoothly sheathed the weapon. Click.
Silence pooled across the dark plain.
Yamato wasn't looking at the trench. He was staring directly at Danial. The cool, detached mask of an ancient master was gone—replaced by a raw, unvarnished shock that he hadn't reacted fast enough to hide.
"Yamato-sensei?" Danial asked quietly.
Yamato took a slow step forward. His gaze moved from the clean trench in the ground, to the rusted scabbard at Danial's hip, and back to the boy's face.
