"That's possible, but there's one problem. Was he defending himself against several people while making his escape?"
Talk about a capable AT. He was typing away at his computer while packing up and fleeing, and then a whole bunch of Uma Musume discovered that their underwear and other belongings were gone. There wasn't even a scent left behind.
