*Crackle!*

The battle begun with a rain of thundering projectiles that looked like arrows made of pure neon light from the ranged automaton resembling a bowman forcing Markus to stay on his toes and denying him of even one moment of respite.

But that was only the start...

*King!*

The sound of metal colliding could be heard as Markus skillfully deflected a blade from the original automaton that attacked him with a small knife by utilizing a precise application of force, the automaton's much more powerful blade was knocked cleanly off its trajectory thanks to Markus's skillful parry, however...

*Shatter*
