Kaelen's glowing red eyes loomed over me as his claws traced a deadly arc towards my heart.
I knew from Veyron what would happen if I tried to block such a powerful attack, so I merely stepped back and watched it whiz past my face.
His knife-like claws cut a few strands of my hair, but that was all it did. But he didn't relent. He followed up the attack nearly instantly.
This time his claws were aimed for my midsection, but I ducked below the attack at the last second and clashed upwards towards the beast's chin.
My claws danced across his skin as he howled in pain. Slicing through his skin was as easy as cutting through butter with a hot knife.
That one attack with my hellfire skill activated siphoned a good chunk of his life force.
Its attacks were smooth, almost coordinated. It wasn't fighting like a wild beast, which told me Kaelen must've had some level of control in the way he fought.
