Unlike its human counterpart, Ragnarok didn't seem to be bothered by the poisonous ooze or foul miasma. It couldn't quite plant its feet as Cu had in time, but that heavy tail smashed into the ground to anchor it against the blow instead.

The heavy strike slid the monster a foot to the side and made it pause under the force, but Ragnarok did not buckle. It yelled again in outrage, planting those clawed feet properly this time, and sunk both hands deeper into Cu's flesh; with a pivot and a heave, attempted to uproot the hefty Esper and slam the demon into the ground in the middle of Gilgamesh's path.
