Theo pushed aura into his legs and moved at an angle. The brown fluid shot out and melted the ground where it landed.
Theo felt cold sweat go down his back.
'It can use fucking acid too...'
The moment the beast's head was still coming back from the shot, Theo closed the distance and struck with his sword.
He didn't go for the skin of the back or the jaw but instead the eye.
The beast reacted just in time and shut its eye with a thick layer of skin that took the blunt side of the attack.
But the real goal was never the eye.
Theo's boot already went forward and kicked right at the lower side of the jaw.
The mouth snapped shut and the reptilian beast hissed in real pain this time.
Theo moved back quickly and in the same instant, the panther pounced again from the side as if it had been waiting for the opening.
Theo used the armor-covered shoulder and smashed it into the panther's body.
