The ground itself gave birth to a shield of flesh, rising into a wall to separate him from Butcher. It happened so quickly that he didn't realize he had been completely walled in.
"Ren!"
"Keep going! I'll handle this!"
Urging Iris forward, he began to cut away at the barrier of crimson, organic material.
"…Right!"
Pushing forward, she swallowed her worries and put her trust in him as she quickly approached Butcher, who stood silently with a smile.
What is he up to? Iris thought.
"Hongse!"
"Coming right up!"
Without any further words needing to be said, Iris flipped back, landing on top of the panda's heavy hammer before he catapulted her forward.
"Helios: Divine Rend!"
Approaching the monstrous entity quickly from above, she watched as he finally made his move, reaching his fingers inside of his own chest in a disgusting fashion.
