Damon frowned at the sight, with Yuki not looking much different.
They watched the bipedal figure drag the chains wrapped around its arms across the muddy earth, walking unhurriedly as the monster ahead of it fled as if every second counted.
The contrast alone felt wrong, and if that wasn't enough, it looked even worse.
It looked like the mangled flesh of multiple beings. Something resembling the monster they fought inside the last rift, but different.
It looked even more twisted and more unnatural. Something out of a horror movie, not an actual living thing.
It followed the fleeing beast for a couple more steps before suddenly coming to a halt.
"Why is it stopping—" Yuki began, but was quickly cut off by the monster's sudden turn.
Its head whipped with an unnatural angle, its empty eye sockets or what appeared to be them locking straight on them.
It stared for a long moment before suddenly whipping its chained arm.
Damon frowned.
