The room was cramped, a point in his favor as he utilized his experience and his reach to keep Mordred out of attacking distance. Yet that was all he was doing, merely keeping her out of attacking distance. The first strike was batted away by her left hand, the second by her right. Each strike would throw him further off balance, the strength behind each parry enough to shatter bones and rupture organs if they had connected with him. Yet she was no hand to hand fighter nor martial artist, her inexperience showing as she took a grazing hit from the third stab. Yet she barely even felt it, she ignored the pain and roared as she manifested her sword in hand, ready to finish off her foe from the night before. She plunged it into the ground below with all her strength, the floor cracking beneath them as she recreated the scene from night prior. Any human nearby would be blown away, while the ground beneath crumbled from the sheer force of the attack. The next two floors followed suit, the shockwave from her strike shaking the building to it's core as they both lost their grip on terra firma and entered freefall. Berserker was ready for this, her shroud disappearing for a brief moment as she angled herself towards Honda in midair. Not even a second later it reappeared, starting from her feet and crawling up the rest of her body as she blasted towards Honda like a jet. She swung at the Lancer wildly, not even a hint of a pattern or any sort of skill to be discerned. Honda's technique and reach made it impossible to land a decisive strike quickly, so she simply removed half of the equation. Fighting in midair without footing would make technique nearly impossible to utilize, turning this into a battle of raw power.
