As the army arrived, Zatiel activated his Sun Domain and started to heal them and analyze the captives.
Although the direct use of his golden flames would have been faster, it would have taken too much energy, and since they will need to wait for Dante to read the mind of every prisoner before deciding their next move, he was not in a hurry.
As the army felt their wounds heal, they all relaxed and dropped those humanoid beasts and members of the heavenly race to the ground.
The humanoid beasts with an appearance similar to hunting dogs and scars all over their bodies were Archons.
They were the cannon fodder in the Heavenly race armies, and like most demons, they were created by subjecting a person's soul, usually the natives of the conquered world, through an extremely painful process.
