Having identified the being controlling the dragon, Szanod had made his way to it. However, before he could attack, the stranger teleported away, to where his first opponent's pupil was standing. Swiftly dispatching the careless whelp, he nonetheless was caught off guard himself by Matt.
Seeing that he could take this opportunity to land his own attack, the demon warrior waited for Matt to strike, then repositioned himself further away, where the newcomer would head towards upon the impact of the blow. As he reeled from it, Szanod was alread out of the ground, waiting for him.
The demon had created a wall of fiery rock, into which the newcomer slammed heavily. Dazed from those two blows, he barely had time to react to Szanod's immediate follow-up. Indeed, as soon his wall had stopped the stranger's flight, he reared back and double-fisted his creation, sending pieces of the wall careening towards the dragon master. Szanod bellowed:
"If you wish to fight me, why choose the coward's path and have another do it for you? Face me alone, if you dare!"
