1115. Forms

"The slash is the most basic sword attack," Sword Saint explained as he raised his ethereal blade above his head. "But it's also the broadest. It can have an endless number of angles and forms, meaning that its potential is infinite."

Sword Saint's sword descended when he concluded his line, and Noah marveled at the spectacle that such a simple gesture originated.

The sword multiplied during its descent. Countless ethereal blades appeared next to it and performed slashes alongside the expert's movement.

The blades didn't have an end. Noah recognized some of the forms expressed during that attack, but there were others that he had never seen before.

Still, he felt that Sword Saint's attack covered every possible slash. The ethereal swords went upward, downward, diagonally, and at different lengths.

One attack contained every slash in the world. Noah was too weak to sense it clearly, but he understood that Sword Saint's form carried part of the infinite.
