They continued to run while Sylphe followed behind supporting them so the monsters would not attack. The monster has not yet attacked them in fact, if he had attacked, Sylphe would already be dead and even she knows it.
Why does she know that? Even the strongest adventurers who were with them in the group are dying one by one, they can't even feel where the monsters are coming from, the only thing Sylphe, her friends and the other adventurers can see is the shadow of the monsters passing by and their companions losing their minds.
When they didn't lose their heads, they were cut in a way that they died instantly, this monster knew what it was doing here, and that made it even more frightening, it was more frightening than any of the things they had witnessed in their entire lives.
