Unfortunately for Anessa, the Neo Scot had been slowing down the swing on the ball-and-chain after Julian had avoided it so that she could pull it back in, meaning it was much easier for him to line up the shout and disconnect. She groaned with disappointment as she watched the ball go bouncing off on its own, dropping the now-useless chain and drawing her beam claymore once more. "If you think that's strong, you're in for a rough fight!," she taunted, then swung her blade at the ground three times, uplifting and launched enough chunks of earth in the Eternity's direction to cause some denting.
