As the eight Beasts sensed Kale's malevolent killing intent born of slaughtering a Dragon, they took multiple steps back in fear.
He was not using the ability 'Gaze of the Monarch', just radiating his pure killing intent; of course, Kale did not really exude the complete intensity of his bloodlust; otherwise, that alone might be enough to force these creatures into complete suppression.
Just like how Neo could command all the creatures of its same rank through an overbearing form of bloodline authority, or through pure domination via Beast Force.
Kale quickly retracted his killing intent and dashed forward, anticipating the dizzying, erratic movements of the Prism Hornet; he struck the creature first, as it would continue to blast flashes of light, thereby impairing his vision.
On the other hand, the Hornet was quite lacking in physical power and defence, so the beautiful creature went down in a single strike.
