Ritual of Destruction (祓砕斬・零水 Bassaizan Ayami?, "Exorcising Crushing Slash・Spilling Flood") is Ludger Kresnik and Victor's mystic arte in Tales of Xillia 2.
Arte Description and History[]
Once executed, the user will throw their two guns into the air and strike the opponent with their hammer, followed by two quick slashes through the enemy with their swords. The user then catches their guns as they fall from above, allowing them to quickly shoot the opponent as they turn around. The user finishes with an explosive blast with their guns, launching bullets with trailing streaks of red light that detonate upon contact.
In Tales of the Rays, this arte becomes Victor's Water-elemental ending mirrage arte and the location of the mirrage arte references the Lake Epsilla, where he fought the party in front of his house.
In Tales of Asteria, a Hello Kitty version of Ludger, paired with Elle Mel Marta, performs a parody version called Ringoozan Ayamii (りんごーざん・あやみー?).
