The Blade Unit's arm-blade came down fast, aiming to split the Knight open.
The Knight met it head-on.
Metal clashed. Sparks burst between them.
He slid one foot back, pushed hard, and deflected the blade to the side before driving his elbow into the machine's chest. The Blade Unit staggered but didn't fall—it simply reset its stance and came again.
Asher didn't get a break.
The Speed Unit rushed him for the third time, claws flashing in rapid jabs.
Asher blocked one strike with his forearm, dodged the second, then stepped in and punched the machine in the chest. It barely moved.
"Figures," Asher muttered. "Fast and tough."
The Speed Unit spun, its leg whipping out to kick him.
Asher raised his arm—caught it—got pushed back a full meter.
Before he could recover, the Power Unit charged from the side, both arms raised like hammers.
"Asher, move!" the Knight warned.
