With Raul as the center, his surroundings started to dim as though night was falling. A blood-red moon slowly rose behind him, staining the darkness in red.
Raul scoffed. "I plan on ending this quickly so you'll know what being truly strong means.'
Raul had planned on going easy instead of showing his full strength, but he changed his mind the moment he sensed the dense energy in the Broken Soul Blade. He was worried that something unexpected would happen. Even though it was incredibly unlikely, it was better to be safe and merciless than sorry.
Raul let out a shout as his hands moved again. The sun behind him started to turn into a blood-red blade. Like an arrow, it shot right at Fane. Fane raised an eyebrow before he slowly pushed forward, sending the Broken Soul Blade toward Raul at an imperceptible speed.
The two techniques clashed in the air, and as a result of the collision between the black light and the strange red hue, their surroundings darkened. Even though the lights were not bright, this still obscured their sight. Everyone merely watched as it cracked.
A second later, a pitch-black blade shot right at Raul's chest at blinding speed. To end the battle quickly, Fane used the laws of space on the Broken Soul Blade, speeding it up even more.
Raul never expected that the Blood Moon Slash, the technique he harbored great pride in, would lose to Fane's technique, and so quickly at that.

Very quickly, the pain eroded all his sanity. He fell to the ground and writhed in pain as cries of agony were ripped out from him. It did not even sound like something humans could make.
Rudy was already used to the sight. After all, no one was able to stand the pain of their soul being ripped apart.Têxt belongs to .
Raul's reaction was only warranted, but Alfred did not feel that way.
Raul had been so proud, yet there he was-writhing on the floor like a worm. It was obvious how much pain he was in.
Alfred could feel a chill behind his
neck, and he thanked his luck that he was from Hestia as well. If he had been Fane's enemy, he would have suffered the same fate as Raul did, twitching on the floor and crying out without any dignity.
Alfred pursed his lips and looked at Fane in a different light.
His earlier worship had turned into fear and respect, and he finally realized how strong Fane was.

Fane walked over to Raul and merely watched as he spasmed without restraint. He slowly knelt and stopped the Broken Soul Blade's energy with a
