[Alhaitham only has the time to do a short nod to Benedikta's answer before their attention is directed to the two women—succubi. One of them lunges forward, but Benedikta is quick to handle it, though Alhaitham has to wince and hold his ground at the blast of wind that comes right next to him, doing his best to make sure he doesn't fall.
Thankfully, he manages to keep his balance, and when the other comes in for an attack right after Alhaitham is the one to respond. He blocks the lunge that she does after shrieking, then sends her stumbling back with a hard shove that he quickly follows up by using his flicker. It's a very short teleport, but its more than enough for what he needs, and when he strikes its not with his usual sword but rather one that's fashioned out of pure Dendro energy. It's more than enough to do the job, and Alhaitham sees with some satisfaction at the cut that he's managed to land as his opponent staggers back further, dark ichor seeping out from the injury.]
Tell us. Is this Master of yours still around? [He asks then, seeing if this start will do anything for them here. Benedikta may have her suspicions which Alhaitham can agree on, but its always best to get it straight from the horse's mouth. He highly doubts that it will change any of his decisions, but its always best to know the full story as much as possible.]
