[ This vibration... Setsuna doesn't like this at all. The mass of the upcoming enemy is fearful. They don't know what else is in this temple, after all. But he isn't afraid — he stands still as he's trying to study the vibrations, trying to scope just how massive their next target would be and where it is coming from. The breathing pattern feels the same as the other lizardmen, so it's most likely their leader or their most powerful fighter. Those teething noises are alarmingly more bloodthirsty than the lesser lizardmen.
Out of a protective instinct, Setsuna positions himself so Gilgamesh would be directly behind him. He glances at Vietnam as well, wanting to check if she's still all right in her current position. And it's shortly after did their next foe reveal itself from one of the underground doorways. Setsuna's eyes widen slightly as he witnesses it; an executioner, or rather, a butcher. It's a gigantic lizardman as he thought, but it's wielding a grotesque blade with multiple teeth — not unlike of a chainsaw. The weapon itself has hints of human flesh on it, and the creature is emanating a foul stench so reminiscent of a burnt corpse. It lets out an inhuman howl before throwing down what appears to be bloody remains. A disgusting meaty sound runs through the large room after the remains hit the floor. Is it trying to intimidate them? It most likely is.
But rather than respond with hesitation, Setsuna responds with hostility. All this time, he's been reserving his mana. But he doesn't need to do so in a battle like this. He returns his nonmagical sword back to its sheath before sliding off his magical weapon off its belt. It's been folded away all this time, but no longer; he quickly sets it on the ground before manually assembling it to utilize from this point on. ]
