Setsuka politely bowed to Kilik as he saluted her and answered him.
“Glad to meet you, Kilik-san. My name is Setsuka. But I am not a student of your master. I cannot pretend to such honour. Your master saved me from malfestation.”
As Kilik then turned and spoke to Edgemaster, Setsuka listened to what he was saying. She got surprised when she heard about the purification skills. So this young man had the same power as his master… He said he had not been with him for a long time but he did seem to have gained some very useful talents…

He looks up at Kilik after the both of them finish introductions.
"So you're think ready now? Very well, we'll start the test in a moment."
He then stands up from his spot and turns to Setsuka. His eyes briefly glanced at her umbrella, but then they shifted back at her face.
"As for your question Setsuka, it seems like both of them probably became human form by their own power. Siegfried shattered Soul Calibur after destroying Soul Edge. As for Zasalamel, I don't think he can do anything regarding the swords since in the past, they easily overwhelmed him."
He then turns back to Kilik and extends his arm towards him with his palm open upwards
"I'll need your Dvapara-Yuga shard. Also, have you heard any concrete news about the Soul swords during your travels?"

[avatar]http://www.unikgamer.com/characters/face/kilik-761.jpg[/avatar] Kilik listened attentively as Edgemaster explained some more to Setsuka.
So that was the reason for his dreams. His mind worked furiously as he gained knowledge about the sword as he heard them from his master. Soul Edge and Soul Calibur in human form by their own power? That meant that they gained more power—and Soul Edge was not weakening despite how many times it had been shattered by various warriors. Then the efforts of the people who strived for its end had been in vain since the cycle repeated itself and the evil sword revived on its own. Perhaps if he was stronger enough to defeat it and strike a blow would then it be eradicated forever. He had to be strong enough and stronger still.
The thought burned in his heart and then his master turned to him: “You think you are ready now? We’ll start the test in a moment.”
Without hesitation, he answered, “I am.”
"I'll need your Dvapara-Yuga shard,” was the reply.
He handed his prized property as memories of those he cherished flooded into his mind the moment he put his hand onto it within his sack; and dissipated as soon as it was released by his hand and placed into his master’s.
“Also, have you heard any concrete news about the Soul swords during your travels?" Edgemaster inquired him as he collected his the shard. “I’m afraid no,” Kilik answered. “All the rumors I’ve heard are just the ones we’ve encountered three years ago. All I know now is that it Soul Edge is alive and is gaining in power.”

Edge Master took the shard from Kilik.
"I see. Then we better be prepared."
He heads further in the back of his cave. He puts away the shard he was given and goes through his racks of weapons. He immediately grabs a nameless katana and heads back out of the mouth of the cave and turns to Setsuka.
"This could take a while, but it ultimately depends on how well my student trained. You're free to remain here if would like."
With those words, he beckons Kilik to come with him as he walks across a bridge and stops at a open arena. The arena is rather medium sized and surrounded with water.

"This could take a while, but it ultimately depends on how well my student trained. You're free to remain here if would like."
When Edgemaster turned to her and told her she was free to remain here, Setsuka felt really welcomed and bowed to the old man.
"Arigato, Edgemaster-san."
She then prepared to see the fight between the master and his student. Wondering how this test will be. It will certainly be something worth seeing. The master seemed experienced and the student seemed quite determined. Though she doesn't approach the arena to not bother them.

[avatar]http://www.unikgamer.com/characters/face/kilik-761.jpg[/avatar] Kilik followed Edge Master across a wooden bridge to a mid-sized box-shaped arena with water surrounding it. He breathed deeply as both anticipation and anxiety filled him. This was his test. This was where he would find whether or not he was ready to face Soul Edge to end it once and for all. His grip on his red metal bo staff tightened as he neared the center of the arena.
There was no one else there. However, for him, he felt like there were so much watching him. All the people he lost, all the people he cherished, his master—he knew he had to let go of them for they were dragging him down. With a blink, they dissipated. With meditation, he had found it easier and faster to dislodge those thoughts from him. That was why they no longer bothered him.
As they stopped next to the arena, he said to his master: “What are the parameters this time, master? How will I be tested?”

Edge Master stroked his beard as he replied to Kilik.
"The same rules as last time. You must find a way to stop me."
He closes his eyes and Kilik and Setsuka sense something evil coming from within him. Evil energies similar to Soul Edge itself then starts to consume his body. His appearance also changes to from his blue and white attire to a more evil red and black. His hair even changes from white to red. As his transition to Shadow Master is complete, he then readies himself with his katana still sheathed by his side.

Sensing the evilness rising in Edgemaster confused Setsuka: The evil was so strong that for a moment she wondered if he really was some evil demon in disguise, a deeply malfested person, even a Soul Edge impersonnation. But she then remembered how kind he was to her, he was not evil but was he malfested somehow or did he called this evil energy by himself? He was a powerful man, he was somehow testing Kilik but even so this was confusing and impressive... She did wonder what would Kilik do now... If they were fighting with such dark forces and controlling them, they both were really powerful people...

[avatar]http://www.unikgamer.com/characters/face/kilik-761.jpg[/avatar] [HP=50/50] A gust of wind domed and expanded from the body of Edge Master as he underwent his transformation. Kilik shielded his eyes with the back of his forearm and braced himself against the wind. His hair flapped about violently on his head as well as his robes and trousers.
As soon as the gale died down, he leapt into the arena and readied his weapon. It was just like the last time. Only this time, he would strike his master down, ridding him of the evil force without inflicting him a wound.
As he put up his weapon in his fighting stance, he let out a firm yell: “I’m set. Master, I won’t let you down!”

[HP=50/50]
Without hesitation, he charges straight at his student. Within a span of less than two seconds, he attacks three times. He first unsheathes his blade and the motion of unsheathing continues as a slash to attack his legs. He quickly resteathes and unsheathes while slashing at his chest, then again targeting his head.

[avatar]http://www.unikgamer.com/characters/face/kilik-761.jpg[/avatar] [HP=50/50] The moment his master dashed to him, he raised his staff in a defensive position, angling them from low, mid and high to receive his attacks—blocking them all. The sounds of metal against metal sang like the bells of the churches he had seen in the west. And they rang in his ears.
Gripping both of his hands at the middle of his staff, he swung left and then right and then left in quick successions simultaneously with a step of each foot.

Shadow Master sees Kilik wind up for a swing and ducks under the rod's attacks. While ducking, he then draws his blade into a rising vertical slash to interrupt Kilik's attack.

[avatar]http://www.unikgamer.com/characters/face/kilik-761.jpg[/avatar] [HP=47/50] While in the middle of his strike, Kilik was caught off guard as Edge Master swiped his sword upward. Only with quick reflexes did Kilik moved his body away from the fatal attack but not completely. He was just able to turn his torso obliquely and the blade cut through shallowly along the length of the skin of his chest. He felt the warmth of his blood crawling down its skin.
As he spun around in evasion, in one smooth motion, he bent low and swept his staff on the ground aiming the legs of his opponent.

[HP=46/50]
Kilik struck Shadow Master's left leg, but he remains unfazed by the attack. He leaps straight at Kilik and while in the air, he unsheathes his sword to deliver fierce diagonal cut to attack Kilik's lower right hip to his left shoulder.

[avatar]http://www.unikgamer.com/characters/face/kilik-761.jpg[/avatar] [HP=47/50] Kilik saw the attack coming and spun out of the way. As he did so, he channelled his inner force towards his staff so that it glowed a pure and holy energy. His spinning dodge led him to Edge Master’s exposed side—his none sword arm. He then let out a fierce strike as he yelled a battle cry.
However, as his staff was about to come in contact, he held it there, touching Edge Master’s skin but not hurting him. The glow of his staff transferred from it to his opponent’s body, releasing a liberating energy to dissipate the darkness from within.
