Kairos saw that while Ines had fallen quite far, she was still able to land back onto the spiral staircase. Practically immediately, she began scampering up once again. However, as fast as she was, it would still take quite a while for her to get back up.
Kairos hesitated for a moment, but turned around before rushing down the bloody pathway.
From how he saw it, this was a good opportunity while they were separated to finish one of them off. Since Darren seemed pretty badly injured, that was naturally the one he wanted to go fight.
Not to mention, he didn't have any contingency plan if he fell down the spiral staircase, so he had no plans of trying to fight with Ines for now, who was more or less fine.
Kairos squinted slightly. After walking a decent distance into the bloody path, he found his eyes felt uncomfortable. There seemed to be some sort of faint mist lingering in the area, almost like a light foggy day.
