[A temporary draconic brain is certainly a major setback, and it would be a lie to say that Diluc's not still a bit thrown off by the experience. But he's not about to let that slow him down until the danger has passed, and that's not going to be for awhile yet. He can sort through everything later, when the fighting settles down.
It's slower-going than he'd like, but having to stop every few paces to cut down an Eraser or block additional nocataere arrows with the blunt edge of his sword is inevitably going to make movement a tedious process. Beatrix is dealing with the situation similarly, which is something that doesn't surprise him in the least. More than even he is, she's a consummate fighter.
They finally make it to the alcove and away from the fray, and Diluc takes one last look behind them before pulling some overgrowth over the opening. Better to remain as out of sight as possible, but he can burn through the brush if they need to get out quickly.]
Fighting these damn things feels like treading water. How are you faring?
