For whatever reason, the enemy got a lot faster when they entered the atmosphere. Maybe it was because he began flapping his wings, or he needed to feel his weight under the gravity. Nevertheless, Billy decided to use that against the enemy and he didn't have any idea what Billy was plotting...
When Zajoth got too close and thrust another spear toward Billy's head, he slightly moved to the side and then punched the chin of the enemy. A perfect counter… Zajoth got dizzy, and he began to spin in the air while he was moving forward. Billy had planned to chase him, but the impact of the punch created a powerful shockwave that sent him in the opposite direction… It was the first time that he tested the power of his new armor, so it couldn't be helped that such a thing would happen.
When Zajoth recovered, he spat a mouthful of blood and then checked his chin. The impact made his brain shake, and that calmed him down a little… Billy decided to keep that in his mind for future reference.
In any case, the enemy began to fly toward him. Still, at the last moment, he threw the spear toward Billy… from that distance, Billy was forced to block the attack with his hands, and the enemy tried to kick him again. However, when the enemy punched him, the power had decreased a lot… the enemy frowned when Billy used Emotional Control to reduce his anger, and at the moment of the surprise, Zajoth was attacked by Billy's glaive as well.
Zajoth flinched, showing an expression of pain when the glaive began to dig the flesh of his back. Billy used Telekinesis to control the weapon and bring it from space. Unfortunately, the weird slimy thing on the weapon didn't add any extra effect on the wound… in any case, while the enemy was suffering, Billy approached and then kicked his face with a roundhouse kick.
Zajoth was sent flying to the distance while making a high pitching sound. Still, Billy quickly went to follow him after enhancing his speed. The enemy recovered pretty fast and then tried to block Billy's attack with his spear. However, when the weapons collided, Zajoth lost the exchange for some reason and was sent flying to the distance again. He couldn't understand it… Even when Rage wasn't pumping his speed and strength, he still was supposed to be stronger… That's exactly why he lost. He was stronger, and Billy stole that strength for a moment.
Zajoth used his rage to make himself stronger and faster again, but while that was his strength, it was his weakness as well, and Billy had the tools to deal with him perfectly. Use Emotional Control when he gets pumped, and then steal his strength when he gets weaker… Billy trashed him for a while like that, but no matter what he did, the enemy would always recover…
"How the hell can this guy regenerate so much?" Billy wondered. "He doesn't have skills or spells that help him with that… is that another trick like the Werewolves?"
Billy couldn't think of any explanation… Still, if Uvish was involved… He might have helped the enemy somehow with that. Survivability was the only thing he would need considering his set of skills, after all.
While Billy was pondering about that, the enemy suddenly calmed down. That was very weird… Billy raised his guard, and then he saw Zajoth piercing his left chest with his own arm. He didn't look like the type who would give up that easily, so things only got weirder.
The blood began to fall from the wound, but then it began to be absorbed… Billy used Enhanced Hearing, and he could hear that the enemy had another heart beating. That was cheating… It was clear that the enemy sacrificed one of his hearts to get a power boost…
Billy decided to finish that once and for all. Still, the enemy suddenly approached him and attacked his stomach with a single punch. The armor protected him, but Billy felt the vibration crossing all over his body, damaging some of his organs. At the same time, he was sent flying to the distance and only stopped after he collided with a mountain.
The impact caused a massive Earthquake and raised a dust cloud… At that rate, with those crazy battles, not a single mountain will be left in that world. Regardless, Billy tried to heal himself as quickly as possible. Still, then Zajoth landed on his stomach, making both of them sink to the ground.
Billy coughed a mouthful of blood when they stopped and then swung his glaive toward the enemy. However, he stopped the weapon with his left hand. When he proceeded to kick Billy's head, he used his Personal domain to steal the mana from the enemy's body and used that massive amount to use and enhance Gungnir. The powerful attack made the left arm of the enemy explode to pieces and it also sent him to the distance.
Billy got up only to see that guy flying in the air while his left arm was being regenerated at a fearsome speed… Despite the pain in his chest, Billy pointed his left hand at the enemy and then made the blood from the wound in his arms return to inside his body and made him contort in pain.

Billy didn't have time to strengthen his skills, so he used more mana to compensate for that. He was planning to make blood flow reverse inside the enemy's body and destroy his heart. Still, Zajoth used his own Blood Manipulation to counter that. Since his level was higher, his skill won… Still, before the enemy could truly recover from his wounds, Billy enhanced his glaive with gravity and ice magic before flying to attack him.
