The ratman roared and charged forward.
Each step cracked the ground beneath his clawed feet.
His rusted chains dragged behind him, screeching.
Blazren tightened his fists. His body tensed.
The moment the ratman got close, Blazren moved. His fist lit up with [Flame Punch].
The heat pulsed outward as he slammed it toward the ratman's chest.
The blow landed, but the ratman didn't even flinch.
Instead, his claws slashed forward, and Blazren barely stepped back in time.
The claws grazed his arm. Sparks flew.
"Tch," Blazren grunted. "Fast for a beast that size."
The ratman grinned, his metal teeth flashing.
"I've had enough time to adapt."
Blazren activated [Ember Boost] and rushed back in.
He launched two quick punches and followed with a spinning kick.
The ratman dodged the first and took the second to the side, but his armor absorbed most of it.
"You're slower than I expected."
Blazren narrowed his eyes.
"Let's change that."
