Half a second.
Rias was quite impressed.
Elita had not struck him with her sword at first because she knew ordinary attacks wouldn't work on him. Hell, even Mastered Void Gate Aspects that applied debilitating effects on the enemy were ineffective against him now. Thus, she devised a way to expose one of the masked man's weaknesses.
As it turned out, Aimon was a construct dependent on Undeath energy. If Rias' control over his Undeath energy went awry, his control over Aimon's abilities would also waver – at least when it came to the properties of his secondary conduits. That was why Elita condensed her extreme volumes of Voided Death energy into a sphere that made an endless attempt at invading Rias' body.
This forced the Undeath Bearer into a two-pronged battle: a struggle against the invasion from Elita's Voided Death Essence in order to restore his ability to use his body as a secondary conduit… and Elita herself.
Rias wasn't winning either.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
