Although he was unable to turn around fast enough, the attack was just too obvious, so Raiden turned his body while raising his head for a roundhouse kick as well. Somehow, Javier lowered his stance and avoided the attack and then tried to punch Raiden's stomach… but he moved his fist, and both fists connected at the same time.
"... Ugh," Javier grunted in pain.
Although Javier was a bit more skilled with his new technique, Raiden had more brute strength thanks to his level-ups. Stopping him felt good, but not that much since that was thanks to his hidden power. Still, there was no point in worrying about that since he used his power to make sure his family would be fine in the war.
Javier stepped away and tried to recover from the pain on his fists, but that didn't happen any time soon, he could tell that the bones of his fingers had cracked, so he couldn't use that hand anymore.
