The punch lasted more in impact than Julius would have thought, making him double over for quite a bit. A desperate hand clenched the side as saliva pooled into the mouth. He expected no less from a skeleton, especially an irascible one. Before he was touched again, Julius leapt into the air and waved two fingers in the shape of half an 's' to pin himself there. The Devil didn't have the power to levitate, rather, he had taken afloat by wind and it was evident from the way his hair was waving with the breeze snaking through.
