As Daedalus was in his humanoid form he was unable to dodge Metal completely. Even then it was also because Metal had caught him off guard.In a testament to Daedalus" awareness and instinct he had managed to take a step back, however as Metal was aiming for the diary it didn"t do much. Metal had taken back his diary.
Once he had the diary back Metal began shouting about how Daedalus had tortured him nonstop and how he should be punished for his crimes. Even Artair found what he said completely stupid however Metal"s mind had clearly stopped functioning on a sane level after what Daedalus had done.
Eventually Artair grew tired of the raving lunatic know as Metal and punched him in the chest. Unfortunately for Metal, this was no weak punch, rather than flying backward though Metal just stood there for a second before coughing the metallic blood and falling over, dead before he hit the ground.
Looking at the corpse Daedalus saw that there was an impression that had extended out the back. Daedalus had a feeling that it would be a hole if he wasn"t made out of metal.
Daedalus then waved his hand and said "I"ll be doing some research on his body, better than wasting it."

It had been rather gruesome and very cruel what had happened, even Daedalus felt wrong doing what he did. But that was the past and Daedalus knew that it was because of his curiosity suppressing his emotions that he did what he did. Even then those where just excuses for being ruthless and it would haunt his mind for a time.
The world of cultivators is a ruthless one, even more so for royalty, and that makes it even harder on those who want to do good but also want to chase after the peak of power and strength, or the peak of craftsmanship. Daedalus felt that what Metal had to offer was a whole new craft Daedalus had never considered, at least not fully.
Augmenting your body using an element and giving yourself abilities related to that element. This could be seen in Metal via his durability and ability to heal from most things. Daedalus had a feeling that it was a special metal like what Ultraun was made of but less durable that Metal had made his body stronger with.
It was as Daedalus was thinking this that his stomach growled lightly. Then he remembered the food that he had prepared for himself. So Daedalus ran to the dining room and sat down in his chair, then after making sure there would be no interruptions Daedalus pulled a steaming hot Earthen Bull steak out of his spatial ring.
As Daedalus smelled the aroma of the steak he couldn"t help but be glad he had put a time lock on the ring some time ago. Thus began Daedalus" first attempt to use eating to gather enough attributed energy for his cultivation.
