At 6 A.M., Xu Yang woke up. He lay back against the pillow, the necklace that Yan Duo had given him radiating a slight warmth around his neck, providing an extra burst of energy. This meant he didn't have to sleep as much and had more time in the day to work.
The rented apartment room was large enough; he turned his head to see A40 practicing with a blade in the living room.
It had moved all the furniture aside in advance, reserving for itself at least 30 square meters of space. The area was narrow, posing a great challenge for someone practicing martial arts, as they could easily bump into things or scratch the furniture, but A40 managed well. It had never woken Xu Yang up nor damaged any items.
The blade A40 was using was called "Fury," a gift from Kanako, resembling an extended blazing flame.
