The situation got complicated pretty quickly. With that aura active, Billy couldn't get close to the monster, and without getting close, he couldn't attack and use his best weapon. That was truly troublesome… Billy barely could recognize that such a strategy came from the same monster that just waited for him to show up. In any case, the samurai won't be able to help him at that rate. He had to think fast and solve the situation because things will only get harder the more time passes and the samurai will die faster... In the end, he found his answer, even thought it also looked like he was only making things more difficult.
"I suppose it can't be helped… I can't focus on preserving mana like this," Billy thought and then jumped.
Billy used Telekinesis to help with his jump, and then he reached the head of the monster. Then he used Light Spear version two several times in a row. The monster didn't have time to react. And its face got hit, and multiple cracks appeared while the creature's head slowly moved backward.
Billy kept going since he didn't feel his arm hurting. It had been a while since he used that kind of attack so often, but his body now could handle it. In any case, eventually, the monster moved its arms to block the attacks with one hand and then fired a blast of cold wind with another. Thanks to it, the cold Aura had disappeared. Billy achieved his goal, but he had to fight while flying if he wanted to bother the ice titan that much…
"Another skill that I had revealed…" Billy thought while he watched the samurai getting closer.
With their ability to ignore some defense of their targets, the samurai were a help that Billy couldn't deny. So, he decided to count on them while he resists the monster's attacks.
While flying in circles to avoid the blast of cold wind, Billy also got attacked by the punches of the ice titan. At first, they only missed, but the creature's speed began to increase. When one of the fists got too close, the blast of wind made Billy lose his balance, and then the monster used the other arm to attack after stopping the spell. In the end, Billy managed to move his weapon and block the attack, but he still was sent flying to the distance while his bones were cracking.
While ignoring the pain, Billy used Telekinesis to stop his movements and return to where the monster was. He couldn't let the beast do what it wanted now that the samurai were so close and ready to attack it. The ice titan saw Billy returning and then fired multiple ice spears from the palm of its hands, but Billy dodged them by zigzagging in the air. Once he got too close and he couldn't dodge them anymore, Billy spun around Billy glaive and blocked the projectiles. Before the enemy could do anything, Billy flew past the monster's hands and attacked the head of the creature.
The ice titan stumbled backward, and the samurai used that chance to attack the beast. With each other of their strike, they chopped away one piece of the monster's legs at a time. In the blink of an eye, the monster's leg decreased in size considerably. Thanks to that, the monster tried to smash them, and while it tried that, Billy began to attack the head with Light Spear.
The damage was pilling up quite fast, so the beast was forced to ignore the attacks from below. It tried to block Billy's attacks with its hands, but even those soon got pierced and got holes. The ice titan used cold Aura again to freeze everything around itself and to prevent both attacks from above and below, and while the samurai moved away, Billy ignored that. Using Fire Creation, he had a fireball above him that countered the cold.
While Cold Aura was active, the ice titan tried to smash Billy with both hands. In the end, he stopped the attack by using his glaive in two quick successions. However, before he could do anything else, the monster suddenly used its mouth and fired a powerful cold blast. Billy thought that the creature could only use one spell at a time, so that caught him off guard, and his lower half got covered by ice.
Billy's body got heavier, and while he tried to move away while using fire creation to melt the ice, he failed to do all that at the same time. The massive palms of the ice titan approached again, trying to smash him like an insect. That was more than a little bit annoying for Billy… So, he used Destructive Aura to block one palm with one hand while he split the other with all his might. Once the cut-off part began to fall, Billy sent it flying to the distance after hitting it with the butt of his spear.
Despite that, the creature didn't even grunt. It only tried to use the Frost Breath again. Without much of choice, Billy stopped the breath with his Telekinesis while he put some distance between them.
"It seems they are doing better than expected…" Billy thought while observing the samurai. "The Severe Blade truly is something I need to learn."
Billy saw that the hand of the ice titan was healing, but not that insanely fast. Even if its body was made of inorganic matter, it couldn't just regrow like that. Perhaps Billy should aim to chop the creature's limbs, but it wouldn't be that useful unless he sent the limbs flying to the distance…
In any case, the monster decided to focus only on Frost Breath since one of its hands was being repaired, and attacking with one would be impossible to hit Billy. That level of intelligence certainly couldn't be compared to before… Still, while furrowing his eyebrows, Billy finished getting rid of the ice and then charged at the enemy.
