Jake blocked the thrusts of the enemy, but despite that, he still suffered some damage since the attacks made the air vibrate and increased the temperature around tremendously and because the impacts were just that strong.
"At least this guy can't use that so often since I am pushed back every single time…" Jake thought.
The next time the monster dashed, it came while zigzagging in order to get Jake by surprise. While furrowing his eyebrows, Jake used Thunder Slash, but the snake moved faster in a single instant and then dodged the attack. The beast used that chance to charge even faster and then attacked while aiming at Jake's head. He had predicted such an attack, so he swung down his sword with all his might, and the explosion made both of them be pushed backward.
