The Old Head Returns

The Dark Edge Sword Arts was one of the things in Raze's arsenal that made him extremely powerful. It was the technique that allowed him to use both his magic and Qi in a special way.

Using one of the techniques while combining it with the Descending Steps was currently his strongest method.

This was where he had been going wrong with using them initially.

Raze's Qi started to wrap around the Ghost Blade. The special sword reacted to his Qi. As it wrapped around, Raze dashed forward.

Before Raze could do anything, Samantha threw her fan again, aiming to hit the sword.

Rather than hitting it directly, Raze quickly moved to the side, pushing himself away with a little help from his Wind magic.

'Not so obvious in front of all these people, but just enough to ease me into it.'

Right after, Raze dashed in again, using the fourth Descending Step, explosive in power.
