When Kaizen saw Grognar strike himself, he stepped back a few feet, breathing heavily. He was trying too hard. In addition, his body was injured and tired, but his determination remained unshakable.
Grognar let out a roar of pain, but before he could recover, Kaizen took advantage of the gap and advanced with a final thrust. He channeled his psychic powers, concentrating energy in his hands and on his blade. With one swift, smooth motion, Kaizen delivered blunt blows to Grognar's most vulnerable areas. His shining sword sliced through the giant's ice skin more times than he could count, causing deep, bloody wounds. The impact of the blows was so intense that the ground itself trembled under the force of the combat.
As Kaizen continued to attack, Glacius tried once more to intervene, then a powerful burst of psychic energy erupted from his hands, pushing Glacius back once more. The giant was thrown violently, crashing into one of the mountain walls once more.
