The Hound was utterly confused.
This thing before it...
It had control over two of its master's powers!
The Insurgent Magnus powers and the Null Life powers through Silentburn Levin.
What was it?
Heck, what was this space?!
The creature apprehensively looked up where the bolt of Levin was about to fire.
Fighting here probably wasn't going to help but it barely had any chance to do anything in the way of communication before it was obliterated.
If it didn't defend, it would probably die.
While adorning its hide, it was difficult to manifest its Unliving Thread to its fullest potential and thus it opted for then next best alternative.
