"Because these are not demons. Your sword has energy, and lots of it, but it is not the right type of energy. Tell me, if you were trying to hit a piece of paper from a mile away, which would you use? A sword or a sniper? The sword will cut the paper with more ease, but you will swing and hit nothing. So you are using a sword when you should be using a sniper, figuratively. The ironic thing is that we will actually be origins a sword."
