From the sequence of events, the Dark Beastmaster couldn't utter a response to my question.
Probably, what's in his head right now was how to get away from here, alive. And I need to take advantage of that while he's still out of sorts from the death of his beast and Marina's shout.
With Benedict's fate unknown, the crossbow guy still entangled to my clones and Marina rushing towards her man's falling figure, there's no one who can save him from me.
Ah.
Wait. Someone can.
"Tharkon!"
From the direction where I came from, the Dark Soldier Transcendent who blocked me on the way here arrived. Though he's fairly fine on the surface, his Transcendent Aura was a bit erratic. It could probably be attributed to how he rushed here after getting freed from my clone.
"Where have you been?! I sent you to block anyone that will come, right?!"
