The Martial Unity

Rui had to admit, that that combination did sound overpowered. He hadn't even considered the fact that the two techniques were highly compatible with each other. He hadn't even considered that they could be used together.

"Nigh Senior level movement speed, and imperceptibility," Ruj shook his head. "That shouldn't be allowed. No Martial Squire can possibly handle that."

"Except you," Kane huffed as he turned towards Rui.

Rui did not deny that. Even if Kane combined those two techniques and used them simultaneously, he could not defeat Rui. Void Step was fundamentally useless against Rui, and he had already beaten Godspeed. Using them together would not allow him to change those individual outcomes.

"I'm probably the only one, and only because of extremely unfortunate compatibility disadvantages for those techniques of yours," Rui placated him.

He couldn't think of a single other Martial Squire he knew that could handle the combination.

"If not for the fact that it can only be used against a singular opponent, you would be so much more of a threat," Rui remarked. "It's actually interesting because your peaks are so much higher than the rest of your Martial Art, that makes you harder to gauge."

These two techniques made Kane more of a threat than the rest of his Martial Art did, considering that they were grade-ten techniques.

However, Kane did not spam Godspeed because of its drawbacks, and while he did use Void Step regularly, it was the reason he was even evaluated to be a grade four Martial Artist at all.
