Although Cyril would have loved to cooperate with Tim to escape the clutches of the beast men's leader, that was impossible as Tim had been restrained by the enemy's crimson chains. Initially, Cyril wanted to help Tim escape his restraints after defeating some of the enemies, since Tim had tried to assist him moments ago, even without being asked for help.
However, with Tim bound by the crimson chains, Cyril realized there was no way he could save both of them simultaneously. This made one of the escape plans he had devised unfeasible. Given the circumstances, he had to come up with another strategy that would ensure his own safety. As for Tim, Cyril resolved to think of a way to have him rescued once he reached South Stronghold's main city, where the City Lord lived.
