Alexander's attack certainly caused critical damage, but soon they all learned that it didn't help all that much… that beast roared in and then went all out to attack Alexander even while his spear still was on its side. Alexander pulled his weapon, but not in time to dodge the claws of the monster… still, he used his left bracer to protect himself. The equipment cracked in several places, but at least it protected Alexander… for a short while.
The beast attacked again before Alexander could assume a defensive stance, so the others dashed to cover for him. Upon noticing that, the monster used Water Tornado around itself and sent all of them flying to the distance. After spinning in the air several times, Billy somehow landed on his feet and clicked his tongue. Fierce Aura was active, but that spell still instantly sent him and the others flying. Fortunately, they protected Alexander from being attacked while he was in such a defenceless state.
