Fighting A Familiar Face!

Nikolai's eyes narrowed. The moment he felt danger, he stepped back and flung his left foot forward, trying to catch the monster's chin with a fierce blow.

His eyes glowed with the geometric pattern while he used his Celestial Aura to power his muscles. The blue aura fused with his blood as it empowered him, causing his muscles to grow slightly, his eyes narrowed, ready to fight with various patterns the monster would take to counter him.

Nikolai's attack was as sudden as a meteor striking the earth.

Boom!

It struck the monster's chin. Nikolai could feel a jolt of numbing pain shooting through his leg. 'How?! I was the one who attacked!' The monster's face distorted, and for a moment, the humanoid face was visible, causing Nikolai's eyes to dilate before its long arms stretched like putty and clawed at Nikolai's face.
