Etymology[]

Also referred as 速度特化の剣技 Sokudo toku-ka no ken-waza (High Velocity Sword Technique).[6]
Noel's datasheet names technique in Yoma War Record I.[7] Manga and anime describe only.
Description[]
Agile Speed Attack enables this technique: non-predictable attack by confusing target through avoidance and use of obstacles, with bodily moves of ever-changing patterns.
Attack speed approximately 62%. Fifth fastest sword technique.[8] See sword chart.
History[]
Yoma nest[]
Two warriors—Sophia (No. 3) and Noel (No. 4)—meet in a Yoma nest, a village devoid of all human life.[9]
As they suppress the Yoma, they argue who should be No. 3. Noel compares Sophia's strength-based technique to a gorilla's, while Sophia compare's Noel's agile-based technique to a monkey's. Noel challenges Sophia to a fight. Later, Noel becomes part of a mission to purge Teresa.[10]
High Fluid Movement in action
Target[]
Despite higher agility, Noel is defeated by Teresa (A in Agile).[11] Unclear if Detailed Yoma Energy Sensing or Versatility is responsible.[12]
Noel leaps from the street and strikes through the second-story window. But Teresa grabs Clare and jumps out the next window.[13]
Plateau[]
Priscilla becomes into one-horned, winged Awakened. The purge team attacks, Noel cutting off Priscilla's arm. But Noel is killed by awakened Priscilla (SSS+ in Agile),[14] despite cutting off Priscilla's arm.[15]
After 7-year timeskip, Clare reminisces how Noel's agility enabled her to cut off Priscilla's arm.[16]
