The Spaceship's AI was silent for some time before it finally asked:
[Damaged?]
"Yes," Tatehan replied, the word flying out with pride.
The Spaceship's AI must have been confused, that was why it paused, then asked the question again. Because it was one thing to damage a creature and another completely different thing to destroy it.
Tatehan didn't know if he was exaggerating by saying he 'damaged' it, but that seemed to be the case.
"While you told me where the core was located, you didn't exactly tell me how to defeat it."
Tatehan paused and then sat on the floor. He was exhausted and needed to bathe and sleep before he could start another hectic task.
"It was hard to do, though. I made a friend who helped me kill the mauler."
The Spaceship's AI was shocked. Tatehan couldn't exactly say how he knew, but he just felt it, since it was pausing for quite a long time after each of his words, like someone extremely surprised by something.
