Lloyd had used Gleipnir's chains to restrain the sword, while he had frozen Alice's legs to prevent her from moving.
However, it hadn't been enough, when the boy launched himself at full speed against Alice, she threw a punch surrounded by demonic energy.
Lloyd felt time stop, he knew receiving that blow full on wouldn't be pleasant.
But his acceleration was too high to brake or deviate.
So just before being reached by that blow, Lloyd summoned Siegfried's helmet on his head, seeking extra protection.
The boy received the punch full on, which was strong enough to break the helmet and send Lloyd flying.
Part of the energy was absorbed by the [Chaos Core], however, a large part of it managed to penetrate his touki and reach him.
Upon doing so, Lloyd felt a wave of pain run through his entire body.
Like a wave of pure pain that infiltrated his mind to torture him.
The young man bounced multiple times on the ground until finally being embedded in a wall.
