Boudica didn't hesitate for a second, seizing the opportunity to swing her War Halberd with both hands toward the unprotected body of the Ghoul.
But the monster was defensively formidable. The strike didn't completely cleave through its body, only penetrating half a palm's depth before getting stuck. The threat of death also brought it out of its daze.
Without lingering, Boudica twisted her body and exerted force to wrench the War Halberd back, avoiding the prior predicament.
But the Ghoul's first reaction upon regaining its senses was not to fight, but to try to escape with its wounds.
At the same time, Balistan finally overcame the fear in his heart.
If he wasn't afraid of death, what else was there to fear?
"I fear nothing!" Balistan bellowed, picking up his Morningstar Hammer. A continuous stream of power surged from his muscles.
