I changed my Versatile Weapon into a normal sword and sprinted forward, chasing the running Gate Guardian before the duration of the [Breathless Running] disappears. When I was around 5 meters from the Gate Guardian, I aimed my free hand into the ground I am running into.

”[Ice Prison]!'

Ice Prison can be used as a normal ice projectile attack like the [Basic Fireball] that can freeze the ground. Ice covered the ground I am running into, making it turn slippery. With that, I can slide towards the Gate Guardian like I was skating. The [Ice Prison] formed a ramp at the very end of the ice covered ground, which seems to be pointing to the running Gate Guardian. I slide faster and faster until I reached the very end. With the momentum on the run getting built up, I made use of it to let me slide and send me to the air.

”Graaah!”

I dashed forward while on the ice, causing me to propel towards the ramp. Like a person on skateboard, I was hurled up in the air as I passed into the ramp. With the momentum of my dash, I was sent into the sky, above the Gate Guardian. While in the air, I made a battle stance and sent an attack on my sword.

”[Triple Slash]!”

The force caused by the [Triple Slash] send me further towards the Gate Guardian in the air, allowing me to close the gap. In a quick motion, I changed my weapon into a Magic Sword and quickly waved it up as I strike towards the head of the Gate Guardian.

”[Ice Sword]!”

-217 Critical!

After doing a damage, I clung into its head. I quickly stabilized the agrro back to me as the Gate Guardian's attention returned to me and abandoned its attention from the cart. But I have no time to play around and drag the battle any longer. Before anyone can see my method on defeating the Gate Guardian, I will be doing it without showing it to others.

I strike one of the cracks on the Gate Guardian's head and grip the Magic Sword tightly.

”[Earth Fissure]!”

As soon as I cast the skill, the sword vibrated hard, causing my hands go numb. I was about to get my grip loosen a bit but I didn't let go whatever happens. The Gate Guardian berserked and wildly swings its arms around. I did not lose my grip and just cling into the sword. It didn't take too long before a series of cracks appeared on the surface of the Gate Guardian. It didn't take long before the Gate Guardian breaks off and exploded, causing the rocks to fly all around the place.
