"Oh gawwwwwwww I don't feel shooo gooooood..." Touma could only utter as the really dumb thing he just did came back to bite him in the ass. Not that he expected anything particularly good to happen even under the pretense of just giving Lucas his DNA, but just falling victim to being drugged was actually a new one really. Considering most of his enemies were usually magic users who favored a more direct approach especially. Right now, the lightweight of a boy could have sworn he was hallucinating little green men from Mars.
As a certain unknown force seemed to let him float through the air, relieving him of the burden of having to reach the end of the corridor, Touma -- similarly to Severa -- could do nothing but remain as he was. Even if he was in the right state of mind, it was likely there was little he could have done against the monsters that Julius took it upon himself to take on, unless they were similar to those Heartless creatures from before, but alas, it couldn't be helped.

"I'm fine, Sir Shigure. Nothing I haven't tanked before. Frankly, I'm more worried about you," Riesbyfe said almost sheepishly, rubbing the back of her head tiredly. At least they seemed to realize the illusion in some manner before it was unveiled to them, given their hesitation to keep fighting. It seemed that her hunch had paid off in the end. A wave of relief washed over a part of her with that, considering such a gamble could have resulted in her untimely death if certain factors worked against her favor, but considering she was against Sir Shigure, at least that part was in her favor.
That train of thought however caused a serious look to return to the knight's face, prompting the silver haired woman to rush into the central hall where everyone reunited. She knew how unruly the others in her group could be, so she had to know for sure...
...
When even Frank had to give pause, the woman knew her suspicions had to be confirmed, as the sight of Ludger's corpse caused her heart to drop.

"..." The woman gave a pointed glare toward Titus silently, the clear perpetrator, so to speak. She said nothing, even as the clenching of her metal gauntlet spoke more than her words could do justice, the woman unable to even acknowledge Little My during this gravitas.
Her brow quivered for a moment, before she turned away, ponytail flowing with her sharp movement as she could hardly even look at Titus, even if she knew it wasn't entirely his fault. Just a trick from the taunting, snickering bear in the air. She ground her teeth silently, remaining silent for a long moment, until braving to break it once more.
"... We need to keep moving. It's what he would have wanted."
