Vikram went forward cautiously, then poked the bear's remaining body with a fork.
He still did not get used to mad animals throwing themselves at him trying to kill him. Don't get him wrong, he's not talking about normal portal beasts, but the beasts which went rabid, like the cannibal bear here.
It's as if they are fed with genetic potions which carry the art of scaring people to senselessness.
He just is not used to this feeling of his heart beating extremely fast, while cold shivers passing down on his skin.
The acid melted away each and every wood scrap, rug and the wall paper !
It's all melted down to the original cement floor. Fortunately, the sheathing is made of pure metal, that is an aluminum tile. Due to this, he was able to collect back every drop of acid that remained in the room.
He had but one fight, but Vikram felt sweaty and dirty.
Since this floor is refitted quite nicely, he wanted to take a shower.
