Aske charged forward rapidly, reaching behind to draw his long spear and swept it toward Agrippina.
Suddenly his voice rang out in the mind communication: "Peggy, go around to the back, Mia, cover and be ready to retreat at any moment."
To a flesh power wielder, slashing was more threatening than piercing because a stab wound could heal at any moment, but if an arm or a head were chopped off, it had to regrow, which was more troublesome.
Therefore, faced with Aske's sweeping spear, Agrippina didn't maintain her "keep hitting me, I lose if you kill me" stoic stance, but rather, the flesh of her right arm suddenly grew hardened keratin, transforming into a sturdy bone shield.
Aske's sweeping spear came to an abrupt halt, and with his left hand, he drew his battle axe for an overhead chop; the latter had her shield up in front, then intense pain erupted from her back.
