"Oh, right!" he said, realizing he could still use his magic.

Soka summoned the blade he had been using to fly toward the Vine Blight that Hayato had just hit. The blade slashed three times at it. He hoped at least two of the slashes would connect, as he tried to finish it off.

Soon the Needle Blight had launched its needles and Hayato was hit.

Trembling in anger, Soka glared at the Needle Blight while more of his metal slipped out of his sword case and into the air. He was using 50% of the metal he had wth him now.

"Metal... Whirlwind" he said quietly, still glaring at the creature. His previous blade and the new mix of metal formed into four long daggers.

The blades rushed toward the Needle Blight, before beginning to spin in a wide circle toward it. The blades moved at high speed, the small-scale whirlwind of knives cutting viciously toward the Needle Blight.
