*Though both strikes whiffed off of his plate armor, there was a sudden rush of pain coming onto the man as he himself poised to strike Meztu again. It was dulled by the adrenaline he felt during the fight, but his body knew that he couldn't last for much longer. His final moments had to count, so as the girl whiffed both of her strikes, he aimed a Riposte right back at her. It missed due to the sluggishness he felt as the second wave of poison coursed through his veins, but that wouldn't stop him from making two additional strikes towards the girl. The first was another low seep like the last, intending to trip Meztu again - the second was a strike with his sword aimed to cripple her.*

*She is able to dodge the riposte being quite good at dodging as its been shown time and time again, then as she regains balance you attempt to trip her, she would jump into the air the avoid it only to end up getting stabbed right into the chest. The pain is excruciating as she lets out a pained gasp, and spits up blood. She holds her chest, but her body is filled with adrenaline to keep her going, but she is injured* 

"Ghuu... Ng.." 
*She attempts to strike but the fact that shes internally bleeding makes that difficult and they hit that blasted armor again*

*Nothing Meztu sent at him hit, and he saw this as an opportunity. The Lord sent a normal attack towards Meztu's way, and then subsequently enters a defensive stance.*
``` The Lord(?) Attacks Meztu once, and enters a defensive stance (NOT MAA TRAIT).

*She would see him attack once again and then he sees it, the sluggish movement, hes operating on nothing but adrenaline currently, but the poison is coursing through his body. Its obvious now, she would knock his blade and get knicked in the arm, only to lunge forward, her butterfly mask being the last thing you see as she slashes your neck with the sharp edge of the dagger. Theres a pause, then a trickle of blood escapes your neck, then a full on fountain of blood sprays forth.*

*"I... I did it, I actually did it! Ive never done a job this big before!"*
*She sits next to the lord who is bleeding out, as she grabs a ring off of his finger, she could sell that for quite the profit. And proove hes dead .She would then grab her bandages and wrap her one big wound she got from this fight and sheaths her weapons. She leaves the open area and follows the wall going back up the stairs*
