Niks growled as the creature blocked his fireball and tried to lift off the ground as fast as he could upon realizing that the creature was preparing to breathe out something. Whatever kind of breath it was, however, was spared from Niks as the creature looked to another direction towards the newcomer and breathed out a glob of foul stench acid that melted stone and wood it touched. Niks took off from the ground although the acid splashed against the ground and some small bits bounced and hit his skin, burning and sizzling several spots of his right side before the skin's, fortunately still fresh and existing, regeneration stopped it. With the realization that the acid would've done a lot of damage to his suit, if not ruining it, Niks flew a bit higher than before and, hearing the winged man's taunt, keeping his direction away from him. Niks frowned at the creature, it was hard to judge how much Hex he would need to bring down the creature, his suit's physical power probably wouldn't matter much as the acid breath was annoying. If it wasn't because of the possibility of gaining a renewable source of fresh suits, Niks wouldn't even bother with this. Still, Niks wondered if the creature's head could spin backward.
His thought was interrupted by a glowing light formed above them and started to circle around, which caused Niks to flew backwards, although it was too late as a sudden tornado formed and threatened to suck him in. It was all he could do to prevent it.
