Seeing that her attacks weren't landing, Kira decided to try a different approach. She rushed forward at full speed. She wasn't a close-quarters fighter, but she had something up her sleeve.
When she reached halfway, she blasted the ground beneath her with a massive surge of ice pressure, launching herself into the air. From above, she unleashed a barrage of ice lances toward Arith. If attacking head-on didn't work, then she would try from above, and then from every possible angle.
Arith looked up as the lances came raining down. She immediately pushed backward, dodging each one as they slammed into the ground and exploded into shards of ice.
Seeing this, Kira concluded that attacking from above had a better chance of working, since Arith chose to dodge instead of deflect. With that information in mind, she lunged forward again, her eyes locked onto Arith, who remained calm, a faint smile still on her face.
