**KAABOOOOMMMM!!!
As the user of this skill, he was unaffected by the resulting explosion, which was why he fearlessly charged in through the flames, intending to get a hit in on the demon he was battling.
"DON'T MESS WITH ME!"
He heard a voice filled with pure rage as a burst of demonic energy forcibly quelled the flames of the explosion sending him flying by a few meters.
"Guh!"
He grunted in pain as he roused his energy to defend himself from the destructive demonic energy that abruptly slammed into his body.
"Aura of Pride."
His body suddenly felt weakened, causing him to temporarily lose control of the energy coat he had wrapped around his body.
He then felt a foreign gaze on his body but he did not have the time to look for the source as he heard the voice of the demon in front of him.
"I was originally only buying time for him, but I've grown tired of this charade!"
