After Daniel's retreat, the priests wanted to chase after him, but the Grand Priest stopped them, and they had no choice but to give up on that monster that had attacked their sacred temple.
In truth, deep down, they were thankful that the Grand Priest had stopped them. At that moment, they were truly terrified and didn't dare to go after that monster.
All of this was just an act to avoid losing their dignity. Looking at their condition, even if they had gone after that monster, would anything have changed? It would have only increased the number of deaths.
Even though they had the power of God on their side, they couldn't stand against that creature at all, and that was what terrified them the most.
All of them were injured, and some were even on the brink of death. If they weren't treated immediately, they would certainly die.
