Coiling flames formed around the Djinn's bone claws, and as soon as Richard's spell went off, he would launch himself forward towards the Shadow Demon. Two quick slashes would be aimed at its chest with the fire-empowered claws before kicking off from the ground and dodging backwards out of its reach.
