"He doesn"t even take any damage. What is his!?" Mumbled Itaka. He tried to clear his mind and get out of his head that Kyaga just got beaten by the first Monster they encountered. "He probably was just underestimating the Giant and not paying attention. There"s no way he"s losing!" He thought to himself."Hold on Kyaga! We are coming!" Shizu was just about to just mindlessly run onto the Monster when Itaka hold out his hand in front of her to block her.
"No Shizu, we can"t make the same mistake as him. If we just run at him there"s no way we can win. He strong and fast so we have to outsmart him." Suggested Itaka. He tried to make every move as careful as possible now, still not knowing what exactly was going on and, of course, still not knowing what consequences an in-game death had.
"Ahhh!" Kyaga let out a short scream again and Shizu had to restrain herself not just running up to him and fighting that Monster one versus one.
"Okay..." She whispered and looked up to Kyaga who was struggling around in the hand of the giant. She had to accept that it was completely useless to just run in now and probably end up in his hand as well. "And what is your plan?"
"Splitting up." Answered Itaka in an instant and pushed up his gla.s.ses with his index finger. "With only one hand free he will have a big problem fighting us both, so when we split up and just focus on dodging every time he attacks, the one who doesn"t get attacked can get some free hits."
Shizu, who was amazed by the fact that Itaka came with a plan so quick, looked over to the giant again and nodded determinedly. "Sounds good to me!"
"Then let"s go!" Itaka jumped to the right and Shizu to the left. Leaving the Giant confused as where to move. Making Shizu going into attack stance before Itaka yelled over to her. "No! Just wait until he attacks!"
A short moment later he turned over to Shizu and lifted his arm again.
"Get ready!" Shouted Itaka.
Shizu focused on the arm and as soon as he started to thrust it down she counted down in her head. "Three, two, one.." She jumped in last second, dodging the powerful thrust that erupted the earth next to her, making several pieces of ground flying through the ground and whirled up dust everywhere.
You could hear Kyaga, in the other hand, coughing from all the dust in his face.
"Sorry, Kyaga!" Yelled Shizu, hoping that he could even hear her and grateful that he was at least still conscious.
"I"m fine, I"m fine." He answered agonized. "His grip is not as tight anymore."
As soon as the dust settled again she saw Itaka who was already behind the giant getting several not so powerful, but quick, critical hits on the neck, making the rainbow dust fly everywhere.
As soon as it reached up again with his free hand Itaka jumped down again and went in position.
