The only problem was that when he went looking for a stronger sword technique, he just couldn't find one that had a strong connection mysterious bloodline like the one he has right now!

You see, Dante knew that he wasn't extremely talented when it came to the way of the sword. In fact, a major reason he was able to make rapid progress as he did now was because of the connection between his sword technique and his bloodline.

He knew he would only be able to make rapid progress in his sword technique if he had a similar connection like he did now. The problem was that when Dante went looking through the Kinsman clan library, he just couldn't find any other technique in the whole of the kinsman clan that fit the requirements

What made matters worse for Dante, was that when he went to his father in hopes of finding a new sword technique. His father actually told him that he wouldn't give him a new technique as he felt there was still room for development within the sword technique he already had.

But this confused Dante as since he had achieved artistic conception, it meant that his understanding of the Lunar Sword technique was equal to that of the creator itself. The only way to progress in the technique would be to create a complete stage of the technique, even stronger than the ones of the creator!

Due to this fact, Dante had been studying the Lunar Sword technique like crazy ever since Winton had told him he could still possibly improve it. During Dante's study of the technique, he realised that the sword technique mimicked the phases of the moon cycle and felt like that was the best place for him to start if he ever had hope of creating a new move.

Crescent Moon

Waning Moon

Rising New Moon

These were the stages of the Lunar Sword technique and With each new stage, a new phase of the moon's cycle was covered.

But after some research, Dante noticed that an important phase of the moon's cycle was actually missing.

The setting of the moon!

Just like the Sun, the moon also rose in the east and set in the west. The setting of the moon was also an important phase of the moon cycle and so Dante decided to try and develop a technique that incorporates that process into the Lunar Sword technique.

Although this was a ridiculously difficult task, Dante felt that with the help of his mysterious bloodline that it should be possible to at least make some progress in creating the move. Besides, Dante believed that Winton would have never even mentioned it in the first place if he ever felt like there was no chance of him being able to complete the process.

Dante had even managed to make some progress in creating this technique and it was even in its experimental stages.

But faced with the challenge of Adelia, Dante knew that he had to bring it out now even if it wasn't fully developed or else there would be no chance that he could win this match.

After readjusting his state of mind, Dante was finally ready to unleash his newly developed technique. But before he did that Dante needed to buy some time for himself to release it, even if it was only just a little

So Dante raised his sword as he commanded,

"Strike!"

Dante waved his sword causing a downpour of light beams to fall down at Adelia again. And Just like last time, Adelia calmly raised her white spear at the beams of light, causing the sky to light up in a wave of gold and silver.

Despite the weakness of the attack it still served its purpose, and that was to buy Dante some time to unleash his true move.

While Adelia was dealing with his attack, Dante closed his eyes and thought back to the Vision that he had first received when he comprehend the sword technique to the level of artistic conception.

He thought back to one particular scene where he scattered moons and other celestial bodies throughout the boundless black void of space.

And Besides some jaw-dropping scenes of creation, there were also some devastating sights of utter destruction.

Dante watched on as moons collided head-on with various planets, resulting in catastrophic explosions on impact.

"Badum!Badum!Badum!"

Dante could feel his blood roaring as he tried with all his mental strength to recreate the wondrous scenes he had witnessed

'Crac!'

All of a sudden, the sound of something shattering sounded out deep within Dante as he felt a layer of confusion and scepticism break somewhere inside of him.

Dante felt as if the fog that had been clouding his thoughts was suddenly cleared and he could clearly feel his understanding of his technique enter a new level.

Gradually, Dante started to float into the air while suddenly opening his eyes. But completely different from before, Dante's eyes seemed to now be shining in a now glaring silver brilliance, blinding anyone who dared to look into them.

Dante raised his sword into the sky as a gigantic pillar of moonlight energy shot straight up connecting with the phantom of the full moon overhead.

In a strange and ethereal voice, Dante softly spoke and yet he still somehow managed to sound directly in the ears of everyone present.

"Lunar Sword technique."

"Setting Full Moon!"

As Dante spoke, the air seemed to shake while the phantom of a moon in the sky started to burn with an even brighter silver light than ever seemed before.

Gradually, this shaking carried on increasing in intensity until a devastating storm had started to form around him. But this wasn't even the most shocking thing that started to happen!

The phantom of a moon in the sky not only got brighter, but its size also began to rapidly increase as the image appeared to become more and more realistic.

Then, without warning, Dante swung down his sword in a calm motion as he commanded

"Fall!"

The world seemed to shake as the floating moon in the sky got closer and closer to the ground.
