Randy had succeeded in covering the military knife with his Energy Manifestation Skill upon his first attempt and was even able to change the magical energy's nature to that of cold energy before turning it into an ice element around the military knife.
To be more precise, if one looks closely at his hand, one will see an ice blade in his grasp, but instead of encasing his hand like before when he was in his assimilated state, he used the military knife as a base to form the shape of the ice blade.
This was the combination of his new skill, Energy Manifestation, and his ice spell technique, Frost Hand. With this, he was able to create a perfect ice blade with sharp edges.
Right now, the ice around the military knife's body is smooth without any rugged surface, almost as if it was the actual body of the knife.
