A small battle ensues as Alessandra dodges all of the blows thrown at them from the monsters in front of her. With skill, she uses her newly acquired sword to help fend the incoming attackers and keep them at bay. Within little to no time, the foes before her are defeated and she then proceeds forwards towards Polybotes where Achilles, Hercules, Orthrus are dodging what Polybotes throws at them.

They begin to attack Polybotes's ankles in hopes of making him fall. After a few hits, they successfully manage to damage him enough that he begins to stumble forward. The party then rushes forward and begins to attack the Giant from all sides. As the battle continues, each warrior dodges attacks and during the battle, Polybotes takes and arrow to the eye, half-blinding him.

IT WAS IN THAT MOMENT THAT THE GROUP FOUGHT HARDER AND BEGAN TO ADVANCE CLOSER TO THE GIANT AND ALESSANDRA, HERCULES, AND ACHILLES BEGIN TO CLIMB THE GIANT TOWARDS HIS HEAD. FROM BELOW, ATALANTA AND ORTHRUS BEGIN TO DISTRACT POLYBOTES IN HOPES THAT HE FORGETS THE THREE THAT ARE CLIMBING SAID GIANT. IN NOT TIME, THE TRIO STAND ATOP THE GIANTS HEAD AND QUICKLY RAISE THEIR WEAPONS UP THEY PLUNGE THEM DEEP INTO POLYBOTES’S SKULL. WITH A LOUD SHOUT, POLYBOTES FALLS DOWN TO THE GROUND AND LAYS THERE WRITHING IN AGONY. Polybotes:"You think you can defeat us! You cannot stop us from succeeding." Alessandra:"We just stopped you." AND WITH THOSE WORDS, THE GIANT POLYBOTES WAS DEFEATED AS ALESSANDRA PLUNGED HER TRIDENT DEEP WITHIN THE GIANTS THROAT. After the defeat of Polybotes, the party is blinded by a bright light.
