Aurus had cracked an eye when Hakkyuu flanked him and headed out into the sun, but he'd also snapped that eye closed before the boy could see him looking when he returned. For all intents and purposes, it would therefore look like he'd continued meditating right up until the moment when the boy spoke. (In reality, he'd not returned to his meditation at all but had instead been carefully assessing how the boy moved, his steadiness or lack thereof, his apparent disorientation and how he handled it.)

At that point, with a wholly unhurried air, he opened his eyes and turned his very direct gaze on Hakkyuu, giving him an answer that was completely matter-of-fact and also completely devoid of all detail or elaboration:

"You were attacked. You've been asleep for two days."
