While most biological creations would honestly have been unable to react, the artificial nature and structure of the creature's conscience allows it to think a lot faster than biologically possible. When dealing with a blade in a situation similar to a charging boar being met with a spear, the answer was plain as day: don't get hit, and that was all that was needed, the creature extending it's arm to grab the blade, it's body able to handle the mystical as though it were physical and, with the proper application of strength, it careened a good ten feet off center from the blade, striking the ground with an impact that levels the Colosseum and buries them both in rubble, but otherwise leaves them little more than shaken
