Darius and Jacquelyn, returned to their former glory, joined Demetrius in assaulting the giant! It glanced at them as they charged in his direction, and it growled, focusing its gaze on Freya. She leapt forward, stabbing with her daggers at its lower body, forcing it to reposition.
Darius took the chance and attacked, biting the giant by by the leg and pulling ferociously. As its teeth chomped hard on the giant's leg, the monster roared madly then countered with its fist. Just a single blow sent Darius flying into the air, slamming in the ceiling and landing to the ground.

Darius was knocked out cold.
"Oh shit…" Bob cursed as he noticed Darius, and he quickly focused his gaze on the giant, a cold gleam in his eyes. He dashed forward, spinning his flame serpent fangs in his hand, "Both of you get the hell out of there! That thing is stro—"
Before he finished with his warning, Jacquelyn closed in and was kicked away. Bob saw stars fly out of its head as it somersaulted in the air before landing on the ground. Jacquelyn struggled, but it could not get up after that it, and Bob sighed, turning to Demetrius.
Freya had leapt on Demetrius's back, standing on its fur as she controlled her daggers to attack the monster, poking its defence with [Light Burst] and creating a [Disruptive Field] around it, a skill that weakened the effects of its skills by 50%! For defensive effects, it reached 55%!
It was Freya's ultimate counter to passives, and it was just as amazing as [Status Effect Canceller] which allowed her to cancel effects from monsters for a short period. All her skills leaned toward the busting down of opponents as quickly as possible, and just like Bob, she hated tanks opponents.
Opponents that could tank bursts and counter with heavy attacks were her more hated. Now she tried her best to annoy them as much as possible before finishing the tanks off — payback for all the pain they caused her in the past. Freya withdrew her daggers, then summoned a [Void Bomb].
Bob charged forward, joining her by summoning his [Light Bomb]. He nodded to her raising a brow, then they both hurled their bombs. Bob closed his eyes, then Freya followed. The giant was a second away from closing his eyes as well, when the two bombs exploded in his face.

As the light was consumed by the darkness, Bob dashed into action, swinging his blades with the light in his eyes focused, 'Void damage? I'll ask Freya how she was able to deal that one later, and test the effects for myself…' Bob hurled all six of his daggers at the giant's eyes.
The giant, blinded by the light, stood as the dagger pierced its eyes. It roared angrily, waving its claymore about and catching Bob unawares. The force slammed into Bob's side and as the memory of when he got hit by the truck flashed in his heart, he rolled in the eyes, his pupils rolling back.

"Shit… another hit and I am back to lobby…" Bob crashed to the ground, and he turned to Freya who had taken a direct hit on the face, and his face grew pale, "How can she even stand after taking that hit? I thought this thing was as weak as the worm, but this guy—"
Bob tightened his grasp on his flame serpent fangs, then loosened his grip. The dagger withdrew to his inventory, and Bob sighed, "I had gotten cocky and forgotten the distance between heaven and earth. Now, I have only 150 points left in my health…"
Freya dodged the monster's frantic swinging and rushed to Bob with a frown on her face as the giant chased, "How much health do you have left?" She cracked her hands and neck as she stared in Bob's eyes, hoping to catch him if he dared tell her a lie in this situation—ignored the monster.
"A hundred and fifty points." Bob replied, turning to Freya and as his voice fell, Freya vanished from his sight and appeared metres away, her fist into the monster's stomach. The wind parted as her punch lifted the giant from the ground and into the air, stunning Bob.

"I will beat him to a pulp, then you'll do that annoying thing you do best, boss." Freya turned to a silent Bob, her aura burning around her — a fierce red. As Bob nodded, she leapt forward, moving to attack the monster as it struggled to its feet with its claymore as a prop.
She punched it in the chest, and the giant staggered back, its eyes burning with rage. It swung its leg, but Freya blocked the attack with her blade, skidding across the ground until the kick lost all the initial energy. As soon as the monster lost its energy, Freya attacked furiously.

Daggers flew at a fast speed, cutting across various points in its body. As its blood spilled across the ground, the giant roared, and runic markings appeared across the ground in an erratic formation causing Freya to grin coldly. Flames erupted from them, but Freya dodged without effort.

Forced to retreat, the monster chased her. Demetrius initiated a blindside dash, grabbing Freya with its mouth and throwing her up until she landed on his back. She leapt from its back, and all the energy she'd been building over the course of the fight, poured into her next attack.
She stabbed the monster in the eyes, gouging out its face, and smashing her fist into its skull. As it roared madly, its voice turning into a high pitched screech, continued. As she punched the monster, it waved its claymore and arms about, pained and enraged.

Her punches were like boulders from the sky, pummelling down on its face as it struggled. It did all it could, smashing its face into the ground and walls and even whamming it with its claymore but all for nothing as Freya had herself latched into his face, unwilling to let go.

The pain consumed her body, but Freya continued punching the monster, her speed growing the longer it dragged on, "If you want something in this world, the only way you can get it…" Freya held the monster's head in place with one hand, and punched with the other, "Is with your fists!"
