「♠」 “Thanks!” With quick speed, he opened his menu and grabbed a few health POT, his health was regenerating at a steady rate, he calculated it’d be a full 14 seconds before it was back at full, a long time to wait in a boss fight. He drank 2 health potions as his health was nearly full. He figured he’d re-enter the fray it’d be at full. The man would grab a needle, nothing but a throwing needle. He had been saving for innocent animals whenever he was walking in the forest, but even the tiniest of needles can do a large impact. He just had to remember the anatomy of a horse…
Sadly, he wasn’t a veterinarian, however, in every game and movie he had seen, horses had a tendacy to trip over their own hooves. So, he took aim at the front left leg. He’d line up the shot as the Horseman reared and circled back around, it’s broadsword glowing once more to strike back, another swordskill was activating, however this one was not from the same way. It was coming from his left side. A sideslash. The man cursed. Paralysis potion would have been wonderful right now. However, he threw the tiny needle, it zipped passed Asuna, a purple trail behind it, as it made it’s mark, right above the joint in the leg as he nodded. He prayed that it did it’s job.
Asuna places herself between Kirito and this mini-boss, holding her sword up and ready to attack at a moment’s notice. The first thing to do is get the boss off horseback. Then he wouldn’t be so quick. The next step would be to find a way to avoid the «Fear» debuff. She doesn’t know how long that particular debuff takes before it can affect them again, freeze them in place helplessly. It’s something new and new things that nobody had experienced were deadly, in some cases.
Especially on higher floors like this.
“It’s coming back!” She calls out for Kirito just as something whizzes by her head. With wide eyes she watches as the purple trail hits the horse in the ankle, near the hoof and it goes tripping and falling just a few feet in front of her. Although the horse is downed, the boss jumps off its back and comes hurtling down at Asuna. The broadsword coming down with it in a heavy swing.
At just the right moment, Asuna jumps to the side so the sword crashes into the ground and doesn’t touch her. Dirt and small «Lanterns» go up into the air and the ground beneath her feet quakes a little. No wonder Kirito had lost so much of his health. But with the broadsword in cooldown mode, Asuna runs in to unleash her own rapier attacks. An 8-hit combo «Star Splash». Dancing around the enemy, Asuna attacks with thrust after thrust, slash after slash.
Her last hit shines like a star it’s named after and with a loud bang it knocks the enemy back a few feet. Once it’s finished, she jumps back again and watches the HP bar dip into the yellow zone. “Kirito-kun! We’re half-way through!"
