Her accumulation of the power was similar to that of floodgates. One chamber being filled before moving on to the next. The process required patience as her own body had to adjust to the old sensation that the Quincy was so fond of in the past. This was what taught the Captain to exercise herself with what she had, operating herself in a manner that made use of the little amount of strength she had access to. Alexius was not particularly similar to most of the Captain's in this regard. Many of them did not restrict themselves to their fullest potential. Each Captain she came across wielded such strength as they would their own muscles, leaving much of their capabilities unhindered. Alexius kept much of her own strength locked away, only to be poured out in small outbursts. This process took time for her body truly adapt to the change in a safe manner. Thus, the example of the floodgates came to mind, however with one detail left unspoken. While the similarity was there in comparison, the only detail that was considered an oversight was that of the amount of pressure being applied to the floodgates. When exceeded, the gates would be blown open.
The process was irreversible. Once her power had begun its domino effect what was needed was the pressure to stabilize itself. This little process was what seem to upset the Supervisor in terms of their "sparring." Already the openings in his defenses were known as there were little means of preventing spiritual assault onto his person. Indeed his strength was far greater than the other Quincies within the Empire, by far in the category of Physical Strength. Yet, with one simple technique, the man fell quickly to it and had to respond with removing his limiters. For a Supervisor to be so confident due to his superior physical strength blind sided him; a form of tunnel vision. There were flaws in his strength, which required a forced hand to be played that exposed his abilities, and limitations. If there were areas that he desired improvement, then they were being made aware of.
Some portions of Alexius' earlier mindset still lingered. Much of her calm, relaxed demeanor being overtaken by the persona of who she was before. The rain coming down seemingly bounce off of the Supervisor's person while several stems breaking away by the curves of his body. Each of the needle like arrows that rained down around them where shattering from the difference of strength between them. He spoke, “If you can dodge this, then we will continue, if you can’t we’re ending this now.” The wrinkles of his clothes gathered into small patches of hills, clustered together as the rain of reiatsu was beginning to come to an end. His posture seemingly tightened around a single arm being raised into the air. What Edward was about to do Alexius recognized almost immediately. Muscles were tensed and the distance between them was nearly average in terms of easily being capable of hearing each other without shouting. She had seen this form before as Edward had so several times already, being more reliant on it than what he was capable of. The only detail that she did not come to notice was a single reiatsu spike being split in half as it touched his finger tip.
Both of their speed were on par with each other. While their physical strength were no where close to being identical, the level of detail that Alexius could see, what she could feel, far surpassed that of her Supervisor's. Her nerves were set ablaze. Muscles twitched before her own mind could even put it into actual thought. As the finger came down her fatigued form prepared itself to move itself about three feet adjacent to where she was. She had to wait, watching the finger come spring back downwards to the ground. The air around her was altered. The ground that was in front of the man began to split open with a trailing sharp crevasse that shot toward her direction. As though a crescent blade was traveling towards her, Alexius sprang off of her heels as the crevasse formed before the man's feet. A shockwave that was jettisoned from his person like before, but its nature differed from the previous set.
With so much physical strength supporting the motion it was not difficult to piece together the likely outcome. Like before, the man utilized his brute strength to propel both his physical energy, and that of the air into a concussive force. Both applied with speed resulted in a rounded, smoother trail that was expressed after a small explosion. Yet, this one was different in terms of explosive force, and the trail that was made. Both characteristics were sharper, and precise. His gesture from before, with his finger, could be what resulted in that precision, but there was still an issue with that thought. The issue that lingered was with the detail of how sharp the trail was. The difficulty in finding these minor details was great at first glance, and without some time to ponder them. But not for Alexius. Her eyes were sharper than most Quincies. Such details came to her much easier, and did not miss much at this point in time.
A single property was dismissed, bringing the woman back to use of merely her Form. This enabled the Captain to call forth more spirit particles to aid her with both her Spirit Fragment, and the Cross that was tied around her wrist. The man's confidence was astounding, and foolishly misplaced. As more time passed, the floodgate that blocked the flow of water was tearing, giving way to the pressure that was building up. That pressure pushing through toward the next step in the woman's own time to relish her renewed strength.
