He doesn't really think HOW he does it, since usually his barriers only last for a single hit- but it's able to withstand the onslaught of flames and heat- even if it makes him sweat like crazy.

[He's trying to keep that barrier up until he knows this dragon's intention, even if it's clearly a drain on him]
