Dayra squinted, trying to shield her eyes from the bright light coming from the dazzling flash after the oval knight's death.
Neither the mirror nor the acceleration from the External Artifact helped the oval knight defeat Adam. Sure, he managed to inflict one wound—a cut on Adam's cheek—but was such a result worth giving up his life for?
However, unlike Dayra or Kolos, the oval knight did not have such a deep consciousness and will. His goal was to follow Lyrod's orders, which to some extent came from the First Star itself, and to oppose every intruder of the crypt.
This was one of the reasons why the oval knight did not pay much attention to Dayra and immediately focused on Adam. Sure, she was now a traitor, but she was still an Elder, the only one left after Kolos's death, and she was the one who had all the seals.
And...
If Adam killed Lyrod, then the task of leading the Corrosive Lakes would fall to Dayra, as there were no other Awakened Monsters of sufficient power here.
