In a booming blur, the Titan tore forward at a ridiculous speed, its immense size doing nothing to diminish its velocity. The patterns etched across its massive body pulsed and flared, feeding power into its limbs, increasing its momentum dramatically. In less than a blink, it was already in front of Nyla.
Its muscles bulged grotesquely as they coiled and tightened, the glowing patterns blazing with immense heat, like molten lines carved by a divine hand. Like an arrow loosed from a god's bow, its fist shot outward. The air stilled for a fraction of a second before detonating violently the next instant, heat and power rippling outward in a destructive wave as the punch tore straight toward Nyla's head.
Nyla felt her mind, soul, and body scream in unison. Pure instinct took over. Her arms rose in a blurring flash, her movements faster than conscious thought, her daggers snapping into an X-shaped guard just in time. With a bone-shattering impact, fist met daggers. The force tore into Nyla mercilessly, the sheer power behind the blow overwhelming her defense. She was flung backward violently, streaking through the air like a kite caught in a raging storm.
With a thunderous boom, her back slammed into the wall. A massive jolt tore through her spine and arm, pain erupting in waves as she spat out blood. She didn't need anyone to tell her; blocking that attack had been the wrong choice. The realization was immediate and brutal. But the Titan did not dwell on her. Its burning eyes snapped sharply to the side. From that direction, Emo's scythe descended like a guillotine, its dark, curved edges gleaming ominously as he aimed to sever the Titan's head in one decisive strike.
The Titan responded instantly. The patterns on its body shifted and intensified, energy surging and redirecting downward. Heat blasted violently through its feet as its massive form tore sideways with the aid of the explosive force. It dodged the scythe by a hair's breadth, the blade slicing through nothing but air.
But it did not merely evade. In the same motion, it repositioned itself with uncanny precision, moving not like a simple Orc, but like a seasoned martial artist. Its shoulders, torso, and waist adjusted fluidly as its fist tore upward from below like a blazing comet, rocketing straight toward Emo's jaw.
Emo did not hesitate. Darkness surged around his body, coiling rapidly into a dense, layered barrier. With another cataclysmic impact, the Titan's fist slammed into the dark construct. The force was staggering, tearing Emo backward as inertia violently dragged him through the air. Still, he remained uninjured. The moment his feet touched the earth again, the barrier vanished instantly, dismissed as he no longer needed it.
The sharp rattle of chains echoed through the room. Fright boy was already moving. His chain danced through the air with deadly grace, wrapping and weaving around the Titan as he attempted to bind the massive creature in place. The Titan seemed to read his intent effortlessly. Its hand snapped outward like a striking viper, fingers closing around the chain mid-motion. Then, with ridiculous ease, it pulled. Fright boy was ripped off his feet instantly, his own strength utterly insignificant compared to the boss monster's overwhelming physical strength.
As he was dragged toward the Titan, the only thing filling Fright boy's vision was an enormous fist rocketing straight for his face. Yet he was not helpless. His body twisted sharply as he pulled on the chain, using its tension to alter his trajectory. His head narrowly avoided the blow, though the violent explosion of displaced air blasted painfully into his ear.
Seeing that its punch had missed, the Titan did not pause for even a moment. It swung the chain effortlessly and hurled Fright boy to the side with immense power, as though discarding nothing more than a broken toy.
Fright boy lost control of his body as he spun through the air. He slammed into a tall structure, his side crashing into it with devastating force. Pain sang through his ribs before he fell heavily to the ground. Even so, his eyes never left the Titan, which now stood calmly in the center of the room.
A heavy silence descended upon the four living beings within the space. The Titan stood tall and unmoving, saying nothing as it stared down at the three warriors opposing it. Nyla, Emo, and Fright boy stared back just as silently. For a brief moment, everything seemed to freeze, as though time itself had paused to observe the outcome.
The three exchanged glances. No words were spoken, yet everything was understood. Nyla and Fright boy forced themselves to their feet with visible effort, weapons swirling into their hands as they prepared to continue the fight despite their injuries.
The Titan seemed to recognize the futility of their resistance. Slowly, a smirk spread across its face, filled with cruel amusement, as though it were enjoying their desperate struggle.
Then, without warning, everyone tore forward. The air within the room screamed as weapons flashed and clashed, the world dissolving into a chaotic blur within their vision. Flickers of motion filled the space as feet barely kissed the ground, bodies moving with endless speed. The intensity of the battle surged, the tempo rising sharply as darkness and heat coiled ever more violently around them.
Yet no matter what they did, the Titan only seemed to grow stronger. The glowing patterns on its body spread further, intensifying, crawling across its flesh like living flames.
Nyla grabbed a nearby table and hurled it toward the Titan. The creature did not hesitate. Its fist shot out like a missile, obliterating the table into a storm of splintered wood. Emo seized the opening instantly. He stepped out from beneath the Titan's shadow, emerging from below as his scythe screamed through the air in a black blur.
The Titan heard the rupture of air as the scythe tore toward it. It reacted without hesitation, primal instincts guiding its movement. Its arm flashed backward, and with a booming collision, hand met metal. A circular shockwave of compressed wind burst outward from the point of impact.
Emo's eyes widened in pure shock. Throughout the battle, the Titan had either dodged their attacks or avoided direct contact. Now, it was blocking his scythe outright with its bare hand. A wicked grin spread across the Titan's lips, savoring the disbelief on Emo's face.
But it did not have time to enjoy it as Fright boy had already closed the distance. He appeared atop the Titan's shoulder, his dual blades streaking toward its eyes in a smooth, lethal motion meant to blind and cripple.
But the Titan was a boss monster. It was not so easily brought down.
The patterns across its body flared violently, power surging to a terrifying peak. With a titanic crescendo, an all-consuming wave of heat erupted outward, blasting everything away indiscriminately. Fright boy felt the impact slam directly into his chest before he could react. As the shockwave reached Emo, he vanished in a flicker of darkness, transferring himself to the nearest shadow to avoid the devastation.
The ground beneath them sizzled as unbearable heat rose. The air grew thick and choking, nearly impossible to breathe. Dust and smoke spiraled violently. The floor began to melt, glowing like molten lava. Then, the titan let out a deafening roar. The ground shattered entirely as the titan blasted forward in a frenzy.
His red eyes glowing with all consumed rage, all he could see before him were sheep's waiting to be slaughtered.
Nyla did not hesitate. Darkness bled into her daggers as she slashed outward, crescent-shaped arcs of shadow tearing toward the Titan. But the Titan seemed drunk on power, intoxicated by the overwhelming boost from the patterns on its body. It did not dodge. It punched forward with both fists, veins bulging as it channeled immense strength.
Heat exploded outward as its fists collided with the attacks, the darkness sizzling into nothingness. Fright boy appeared once more like a perfect assassin, his movements silent and swift, his sickles screaming toward the Titan's kneecaps.
The Titan grunted dismissively. Its body twisted smoothly, evading the strike, yet it did not stop there. Evasion and attack merged into a single lethal motion. With bursting force, it kicked outward, its massive foot tearing through the air toward Fright boy's side.
Fright boy reacted instantly. His chains coiled around him, forming a shimmering silver barrier. With a thundering blast, the Titan's foot slammed into it.
The next moment, Fright boy was sent flying. His organs churned violently as he coughed blood, his body screaming with pain. Though he had blocked the attack, he had not blocked the immense impact behind it. Still, he grit his teeth, refusing to lose consciousness.
No matter the pain, he had to stay awake, for his teammates. So, he spat out a red saliva soaked in blood and rose to his feet to rejoin the battle, as he couldn't afford to fall now.
Watching the scene from the sidelines, Akhil didn't need anyone to tell him..... They didn't look like they were winning.
