For the most part, she couldn't see them... But she knew her guildmates were working their damndest to cull the barbarian horde as quickly as humanly possible. How did she know that? For the simple fact that none of them had even the slightest chance to interfere with their fight, hell, not even cheer for their boss. Seeing that, Alisa knew she couldn't let up for even the slightest moment, barely wasting a breath to swat away at the excess dust as she charged at the titanic enemy before her. Devoid of her sword, Alisa is forced on the defensive, aiming to engage her dual wielding opponent in Melee range, firing the odd spell here and there. The man seemed to shrug off most of the spells she shot at him, as if bolstered by an impressive resistent to magic almost as large as his ego:
"What's wrong, what's wrong?!?", he roared, laughing out loud as he swung away with his axe, forcing Alisa to defend, soon shattering her defensive spell and ripped through much of her armor.
Though she focused on defense, Alisa never got struck quite hard enough to knock her back as far as the first time around and with every blow traded she gets a feel for her opponent's pace, like an opportunistic ambush predator waiting for the chance to move.
And then, she sees it.
Before she knew it, her chance appeared right before her eyes, just as her overeager foe pulls his arm back for a swing, crossing what few meters of distance remain between them. In response, Alisa merely thrusts her hand out, shooting a crystalline blade, effortlessly piercing through his armor. Her foe did well to guard his vital organs, but Alisa still seized an opening to pierce through his abdomen, making him spit out blood. Even then, he growled and grinned:
"Pathetic...! You thought you could kill me with that little needle.", despite the wide eyed, startled look of shock as he halted his advance to examine his wound, he soon laughs it off, barely paying any mind to the spear embedded in his torso.
"No... You're already dead.", she retorted, nodding towards the crystalline spike embedded in his body, mercilessly crystallizing the surrounding flesh until the man shook with pain, bringing his idle hand to his would as he sneered.
"Ain't gonna go down... From something like this...!!", and with what last remained of his energy, "I'll admit that much, you bitch... You're strong!!"
Well that was impressive, she'd give him that much. Even as he stared down his own death, her foe charged fearlessly into the fray, hoisting his last remaining axe, hoping to put his all into a final blow. Alisa would have even liked to give him the satisfaction of accepting it... But as the crystallization spread through his body, the charging barbarian found himself frozen in place, locked in that last ferocious strike, doomed to never reach his target
"You hopeless beast, not even a crystal statue is a good look on you.", chided she sculptress, shaking her head, yet still admiring her enemy's tenacity not enough to shatter his statue outright. Sighing as the enemy leader stood defeated before her, Alisa turned to the shivering lot who fought beside him, utterly baffled at the sight of their crystallized chief. Very few of them remained in the wake of Sofia and Daiko's onslaught, but even then, Alisa spoke to what few yet stood, "So, who's next...? Whoever still has a weapon in hand in the next 5 seconds will end up like him."
Pointing her thumb menacingly at the defeated enemy behind her, Alisa strutted over to her companions, looking through each and every one of her enemies as she reinforced Sofia's words, barely having time to rest a hand on her hip before a myriad clanging sounds of weapons falling on the ground made itself heard, earning a smile from the guild master:
"Well done, you two~"
