With Shiro now tanking the boss in her heavy metal armour, the party didn't have to worry about taking aggro since her attack was the highest out of the entire group.
While this was happening, Yin decided to just relax and poke at the flesh walls.
She would set them on fire amongst other things to see what kind of reaction they would have.
As for Chen Yu, he had managed to find 5 motes so far. Since they had 9 members in the party, they needed to get 18 motes in total for the damage phase to begin.
"Oh right, Madi, I'll play dead for the damage phase so that you can get the aggro back. After all, unlike you, I don't have any skills to buff up my defence. The only reason that my armour is working is because I'm repairing the damage before the woman can attack again." Shiro called out as she tanked another hit from the woman.
Stepping back slightly, Shiro slammed the shield in retaliation, bouncing the force back to her.
