Hunters Hands began to swirl with darkness again. He tilts his head at seisuke. "Hakameh Destante!" He shouts as he Begins Firing Black orb after black orb towards Seisuke, Sending a barage of dark energy towards him. All in all he ends up releasing a few hundred black orbs in his direction. The volley of orbs Went in numerous directions, though staying in the general direction of seisukes body. Only a few of them actually seemed to be heading directly at him. Maybe a dozen or so.
The Lack of accuracy with the orbs, make it all in all rather easy to dodge the attack, though the number of orbs didnt leave much time for a counter. Even then if seisuke tried to counter Hunter still held a few tricks.

Having tought of the situation< his attack looked more like a shotgun than anything else. Now looking through the situation he devised a plan of protection that would evade the problem of Ziven being caught in the blast.
By making a few hand Seals he uttered the words "Doton: Doryuu Heiki" (Earth element Earth wall barrier) By doing this not only would hide him from his line of sight but cover both Ziven and him from the reckless blast he made at both. By spurting mud from his maw the floor itself became a giant wall of pure and solid rock. covering both and hiding his next line of procedures from his sight. Having seen that he will mostly reduce an attack by converting himself into a puddle of liquid he began to devise a set of moves so to prevent this from happening again. Ziven could see that he was making seal at very high speed and his clothes flick for just a second.
Waiting the blast to its impending damage he took another sword out and slowly jumped bit by bit on the wall as the orbs hammered against it.

Seisuke made a potentially fatal mistake. Though Hunter didnt use the attack to the fullest and it would not kill him, he used a move he had a feeling seisuke would be able to stop. The orbs in which were supposed to fly at him did so, crashing into his wall of dirt, beating against it like a drum. The majority of the orbs missed the wall and Seisuke, intentionally.
When he stopped firing he had a grin on his face. If seisuke were to look, he would see hundreds of the orbs, suspended in the air, encompassing all around him from every angle. They werent meant to hit him at all, they were meant to surround him for his actual attack. Hunter then snapped his fingers. All the orbs all around him Exploded towards him, Flying at him at unmatched speed. They would slam into him from all directions, leaving him no where to run. Every direction orbs were rocketing towards him.
Hunter grinned as he watched, he wasnt in a defensive state, though he wasnt open for attack, he was ready for attack at any second.

She moved to protect herself, stopping and turning to Seisuke with a smile once the attack passed. "Worry not, Seisuke-ona, I will be fine." she said cheerfully, bobbing her head. When the attack changed, she covered her face with her arms, bracing for the impact of the force from being so close to that which was meant for Seisuke. Still, being that she was so close to Seisuke, she would take nearly the same amount of the blast as he would.

He smiled he was jumping being in mid air would help him gain momentum. Blue energy escaped his body and before the blast attacked him it made an orb enveloping him "Hakkeshou Kaiten" (heavenly Spin or literal Eight Tigrams Spin) The blast was mostly repelled but due to his hasty action some actually affected him. "Quite astute of you"

Hunter bowed his head slightly. He held back the attack significantly. "Like wise.. I like your defensive abilities" He said with a nod. "We both have gotten stronger.. Me.. and you... I respect that.. I can admit it.. Though.. I cant respect the fact.. that you, still see me as only a kid.." He said narrowing his eyes.
He folded his arms across his chest, pacing abit, thinking things over. Thinking things through. To hunter, this was more then a spar. This was Hunter Trying to Prove himself. He was sparring for Honor.

"To me you still are until you think that is skill not power that wins over a battle . Remember i beat and almost leave ya to die last time, i hope this time you have improved. Ziven has improved that over you and she has overcome even the mighty yawg by herself in combat only losing because lack of battle experience. I hope to see what Hell has given you besides changing into a puddle of liquid every time you have been hit "
He said stancing himself he wore his Zgundam armor when they looked at each other. He smiled and waited for him to reply

He shook his head. "Well Lord seisuke, Ziven has improved, greatly. Though What you fail to realize, Is I havent even used one one-hundreth of my power on you at all. Every single attack ive used Ive held back significantly. Trying my best to not kill you. The only real thing that caused me to use any of my power yet has been Zivens starlight breaker." He said narrowing his eyes.
He paced abit again, staring at seisuke. "Still It intrigues how you need armor? yet power means nothing in a fight. What do you fear then? Why the need for extra protection, surely, you cant be that afraid of me." He said with a slight grin. "You want to fight like a man?, Lose the armor.. Let our steel do the talking. You are samurai are you not?" He asked waiting response.

"Very well, i hope taking me lightly doesn't cost you on the long run. I still have my ways to beat anyone here."
Taking a note on his words seriously listening and smirking once he finished. Walking from side to side he began to speak to him gently
"Surely you jest! Healthy fear is what made live this long on earth. But fear here and now is non-existent. As for my armor think of it as an extension of my skin not as a protection. And if you are curious i can show you things with it that you have yet to lay your eyes upon. Never challenge my integrity as a swordsman again or it will cost more than just words, now be prepare to lose that in which you hold dear in your heart if you don't pay attention"
He stance sheathing his swords and more looking at him just gaging the tense moment. waiting for him to do his move.

He unsheathed his sword. It was 5 feet in length and sharper then any razor. He held the sword in one hand, his sheath in the other. "Very well then." He says aloud. His sword was a bone sword, sharpened in the hell forge. There were numerous ruins in it. All with various effects and attributes. There were enscriptions going up the blade, all which glowed a dim red. He walked towards seisuke, sword in right hand, sheath in left.
Once he got several feet from him, he bowed his head to lord seisuke. He then tightened his grip on his sword. "Unsheath your sword then. Steel for Steel. I fear not losing that which my heart holds dear. I know, regardless of what happens here.. Even if you slay me.. I will return to hell. Ive escaped once, it will not be that hard to do it again now that I know the path." He said with a scoff. He would wait for him to draw his sword, and then he would strike. Though he needed to see seisuke hold his sword, to know in how to attack.

"Magic Swords now? I thought this was supposed to be steel against steel. Guess i was wrong then,and don't be so sure about your departure with me the sanzu river wont take you to hell if i slay you now 'Kakugo!' (prepare yourself!)"
The very able swordsman knew his ground and what abilities would encounter by just looking at the sword but, he decided Hunter is need of some good old Kendo lessons. He rushed forward without even unsheathing his sword, a mistake? rather an advantage to him as his abilities in swords haven't been surpassed by anyone let alone a swordsman using magic. His left foot propelled him almost leaving his sight for just a mere second then propelled the sword with all and the sheath in a arc to meet his mid-section. As soon he felt his reaction began to take effect the sheath slowly then violently purged to his sheath holding arm slightly off mark to adjust if he moves to an unexpected line, but his intention was just one to disarm him as it looked that wanted to use battou-jutsu.

Hunter smiled as he rushed him. He stood his ground, never leaving his eyes off of seisuke. Watching closely, he sees that seisuke was trying to disarm him. He thought it cowardly to disarm a man before you killed him. The runes In his blade were magical yes, though there were no abilities that could be done. The various runes added to the attributes of the sword. They made it, Lighter, Sharper and Unbreakable among other things.
He lifted his right arm holding Katana, With a quick grip adjustment, he now held the katana mantis style. He had also changed his grip upon his sheath as well. Lifting his left arm, He quickly lifted His sheath up and diagonally, to meet his katana, Timed with perfection, The katana would hit about halfway up the sheath and then slid up and off the sheath.
(Assuming of course, you slashed at me vertically using your right hand as the hand holding the sword. you didnt say so I had to guess)
Only Split Seconds between both attacks gave him long enough to execute both counters. He Quickly turned lifting his right arm up to meet the sheath. The Katana in his hand was lifted still in mantis style, letting seisuke apply most of the force, Hunter would play off that. He would meet seisukes sheath with his sword, though He wouldnt lift, it away to parry his attack. He would just hold it there, so Seisukes sheath would strike and either be Cut directly through, or bounce off.
(as for that one, i wasnt sure if you had a wooden sheath or metallic. This Counter is also based off assuming, that you would have been swinging you sheath with you left hand horizantally)

(very good thought the result wont be the one you expect)
Having swung with an upwards arc the sword did met the sheath in a slight more higher angle. Pressing against it would give seisuke some leverage to his next set of moves. Having met his sword with his metal sheath, the force expelled from it was enough to move away and alter the course of the blade giving sufficient amount of time to pull the sheath back to his grip and using the momemtum to slam the sheath in pit of his stomach before resheating and further pressing the attack onward. He slide the sword away from his sheath and with a single thrust both the handle and the sheath met its marks pushing a very close Hunter a few feet back thus giving the proper time to sheath and stance again.

Hunter Stood there, his stomache ached abit, nothing too serious, slight discomfort, though he definitely felt the blow. He bowed again to him, this time, he would be the attacker. He Slid his hand down the side of his blade. The runic enscriptions upon it glow brighter, the sword them spilts into two, equally shaped katanas. Throwing his sheath two the side, he now held two katanas, holding them both mantis style. He made a quick charge, leaping into the air. He slashed both of his katanas in a cross slash towards seisukes torso. Even if Seisuke managed to lift his sword up to parry, Their swords would be locked, Hunter would still have the upper hand. He put his strength into this scissor like attack. Seisuke would have to use more then one hand to keep his katana in place to defend, if he wanted to keep all of his limbs, there was no one one hand wielding would be enough strength to stop this attack.
Hunter was forcing him to lose the sheath.

He already putted his sheath on his waist, not waisting focus he looked at the leaping Hunter high above the air. Taking this opportunity to his favor he did the one techinque that could help him. The Ryu shou sen, having though of it He jumped with all his might, his sword to meet his in a horizontal clash. One hand was on the back of the blade while the other on the handle. While the clash took place, his propulsion pushed hunter a bit upward but suddenly gravity was at hunters advantage, not letting this be his deminse he lessened the force on the hand the was on the blade letting gravity make him slide off slightly. The force of the gravity that made hunter slide off his swrd also made him turn counterclockwise. This new momentum gave seisuke an unique advantage and he exploited. His left hand having left the blade itself, latched unto the handle of his second swrd that was on his right side of his hip, using the new spin he masterfully unsheathed it and landed cleanly on his back. Since it wasnt a slice more like a chop it left an indetation on his back having cutted deep enough the smashing chop propulsed the injured HUnter to the ground. But by doing this impressive exertion his left shoulder was throbbing in pain as he landed near the fallen hunter. Looking at him with a slight sweat*
