He should have known that the bard had some form of countermeasure against fast enemies...but he was not expecting to be forced to dance a merry little jig. The realization was not the only thing that hit the one armed scout. Just as he was about to execute the gravely injured bard with another shotgun blast, a shadow loomed over him. With a single swipe of the gigantic hand of the bard's nuclei, Raime's advantage was swiftly taken away from him. His ribs cracked and strained underneath the herculean might of the summoned mechanical automaton as each breath only tightened the giant's grip upon him. His desperate attempt to break its grip with the butt of his hand canon was to no avail. To make matters worse, the giant nuclei prepared to lop his head off in a moment's notice. Raime had little choice left in the matter. It was either he kills the bard now or he gets killed himself. Not even a heartbeat passed as he made the split-second decision.
He had to make sure that his next attack against the axe bard would be a killing one. It was time for him to unleash the Jewel of the Valiant, Claiomh Solais!
He lets the Chihananshi Mk II dangle off its air hose as he extends his arm at the axe bard below. The blackened armor shifted into it's cannon form and Raime poured 565 HP, MP, and SP into the shot. "God Searing Light!" And upon uttering his nuclei's active skill, a beam of burning light instantly projects from the cannon. He was not 100% sure of what would happen...but he hoped that when he killed the axe-bard, the giant automaton would die with its master.
