It was a known fact that heavenly rank hunters possessed a far superior strength than ascended ones and Uriel was aware of that fact but it wasn't until Nika landed that kick that he truly understood the difference. The kick carried so much force, Uriel's nose was completely demolished and if it wasn't for Water warlock's blessing he would have lost the fight but, fortunately for him, he was able to recover from that gruesome blow in an instant.
