LeeRoyThe man didn't reveal himself around the pillar, apparently ignoring her almost entirely, which was somewhat annoying to her but at the same time gave her a great opportunity to smite his evil behind to kingdom come. He double deserved it now. She didn't hold back much on speed as she skidded tightly around the right side of the pillar, spotting him slashing at her armored ally's leg, who continued charging forward with reckless abandon as if he wasn't getting attacked from behind either. Funny how these two men were similar in that regard.
She covered the remaining distance at a near 50 miles per hour, a mere blink of the eye, and swung her blade from right to left where the man's neck was once she got into range, hoping to behead him with a single slash. She didn't care much if she'd slam into him due to her shield easily taking the damage of such a collision and she'd end up on top of him with her melee weapon in hand while he'd be laying on his stomach unless he managed to turn around in time, putting him in a highly compromising position if he simply decided to duck her blade and got knocked down, especially if he wasn't prepared for her sudden "tackle" that would also add disorientation to the mix.
It would take longer for him to sidestep dodge her, which she wasn't sure he'd have time for after just completing his slash, now having to readjust his footing and momentum. If he had time to get his sword into another slash against her so soon after the previous then that would be her biggest problem, but he just got through with a heavy slash to try and damage her armored opponent. Surely the momentum of that swing would cost him some time in that regard. Besides, she'd have her shields to rely on to block a single attack before she'd be able to get her sword ready again and take a better stance to defend herself, the exact nature of which she couldn't tell until it she saw his moves.
If any. She was light on her feet and quick while he was seemingly focused on the armored guy. Perhaps he wouldn't even notice until it was too late, but it wasn't like she was relying on this to be the case in order to succeed.
