Appearance
Throughout the series, Rey appearances changes drastically. These changes seems like it is coming from the merge between Rey and the Pasa sword's demon spirit, but also something deep within Rey is slowly surfacing.
- Volume 1, Rey's eyes become cloudy and Spirit speaks through him
- Volume 3, Spirit took over when the Dervishes though Rey was beat. His eyes became completely pupiless and he only regained control when MinXia intervened to reind him about Shyao. Rey enters Sheyshen's dimension and his physical form immediately changes, he now has red eyes, markings all over his body, claws, and spikes growing from his wrists. After Sheyshen lands her first punch on him, the PaSa sword takes over and Rey has no memory of the possession afterwards.
- Volume 4, Spirit takes on a sprite form outside of Rey's body.
- Volume 5, Spirit appears for a brief moment and the PaSa sword attacks Hyacia on his command.
- Volume 8, After learning of Shyao's betrayal (and being impaled), Spirit actually takes on a visible form (not the sprite this time) and controls Rey like a puppet. He is able to unleash powerful attacks without the use of the PaSa sword and Rey only regains his senses seconds before he would have taken off Shyao's head.
- Volume 9, When Louen and Moa meet Rey, there are still markings all over his face and he wears a bandage over one eye because it is still demonic from the last possession. Spirit can now maintain a physical form when not possessing Rey but Rey has insight into his memories against his will. The PaSa sword can travel long distances now without Rey.
- Volume 14, During the battle against the Sorcerer King, Ban-Go's spirit is partially awoken. Rey's entire body is turned black with the exception of his left eye. He later in the battle uses the "Armor of Creation", giving Rey armor on his left side. He loses the demon stone in his forehead after the battle with the sorcerers because all of his powers have become one, according to the PaSa sword spirit.

Famous quotes containing the word appearance:
“Hence, the less government we have, the better,—the fewer laws, and the less confided power. The antidote to this abuse of formal Government, is, the influence of private character, the growth of the Individual; the appearance of the principal to supersede the proxy; the appearance of the wise man, of whom the existing government, is, it must be owned, but a shabby imitation.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“This mesa plain had an appearance of great antiquity, and of incompleteness; as if, with all the materials for world-making assembled, the Creator had desisted, gone away and left everything on the point of being brought together, on the eve of being arranged into mountain, plain, plateau. The country was still waiting to be made into a landscape.”
—Willa Cather (1873–1947)
“The fear of death is indeed the pretence of wisdom, and not real wisdom, being the appearance of knowing the unknown.”
—Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
