My plan worked. Using Daniel’s own Zero Armor to kill him was … bloodier than I thought. But at least Daniel was out of the fight for good. The only problem, of course, was that his Zero Armor still stood strong and mostly unharmed aside from the small dents that James had managed to make in its surface.
The Zero Armor seemed to understand what just happened. It looked down at the two b****y halves of Daniel for what felt like an eternity. I wasn’t sure if it was trying to process the fact that it had just killed its own wearer or if it, being a machine, couldn’t understand why Daniel wasn’t putting himself back together and getting back up.
Preparing myself for the next phase of the fight, I was surprised when the Zero Armor put the broadsword back on its back and picked up both halves
