Swords

After Ereg used the purple ghost his physical stats became much greater than Gael's, he used this to gain a real advantage, and he succeeded.

Gael couldn't become as strong and fast as Ereg, considering their power was roughly equal, they had their own limitations. Compared to other creatures, Gael was many times stronger, anyone below the Transcendence Stage was nothing to him, just nothing. However, Ereg was strong enough to surpass his opponent in some parameters.

"Everyone thinks that the basis of Gael's strength is his swordsmanship skills and speed, well it's true, but everyone somehow forgets about the ash. Gael is the only one of all Ashens who could reach such a peak by choosing the path of ash instead of fire." Alucard said with a sly grin, watching the fight with genuine interest.

Whooooooooooooooooooosh.

A multitude of ash swords simultaneously rained down on Ereg, leaving him no other option but to dodge.
