Wulanxeex did manage to put up his arms to block the staff from hitting his torso, but he still received a sharp pain from the weapon hitting his arms. Nevertheless, he retained enough concentration to grab the staff. Remembering her strength, however, he didn't try to pull it from her grasp and instead reached out with his other hand and grabbed one of her ankles. From his current position, he might not have been able to get a good enough grip to pull her off of her feet normally, but since she was already off-balance, he was just able to trip her up and cause her to fall beside him. As quickly as he could, Wulanxeex moved to capitalize on the opportunity. He did not even bother standing all the way to his feet and instead just got up on his knees, grabbed his club off the ground next to him, and started to hit her as hard as he could, as many times as he could. With the way she fell, her head was out of reach, but he was able to strike her in the body multiple times. Meesei winced with each blow Sabine's opponent landed. Sabine was not in a good position, and Meesei had already unconsciously started to charge magicka through herself. Wulanxeex was already pushing the line, and if he stepped over it, Meesei would not hesitate to intervene. For now, as bad as it seemed, Sabine still had a chance. If she could get a hold of him, Wulanxeex would not be able to get away unless Sabine let him get away. With how close they were, Sabine might be able to grapple him into submission.
