Kuraudo's hulk of a sword misses its intended target. Xukhezur took evasive measures to slip beneath the First Tsurugi to offset its projection. Shoving his short sword into the flat of the mechanical brand. Though by doing this, his otherwordly foe inadvertently set off a trap. The luminous energy cloaking the First Tsurugi detonates like an explosive. An outburst that not only sends Xukhezur reeling, but Kuraudo as well. 

He is sent flying back, racing over the battle floor several feet (6.12) high. It was a reckless move, though his actions didn't render him unconcious. The ex-SOLDIER stunned himself momentarily, able to recover from the debacle forthwith. He motions his slim body into a slow flip backwards. By this time the momentum wanned a bit and Kuraudo lands on his feet. He slides across the sand, leaving an eight-foot skid mark in his wake. When he brings himself upright, Kuraudo looks across to ring. There's wonderment on his mind. Whether his opponent endured the attack unscathed.
