<Snipped quote by Dynamics>

*Manifests a basketball-sized chunk of Quolium and funnels all the generated energy into it* I can shut off the Carnot cycle exploitation in the Blue Magic and instead draw all energy generated by the matter-energy conversion into the sword. There is the possibility that a quick opponent may still absorb some of the energy.
