When Ange pulled out the Holy Shroud instead of directly accepting it, Anthony immediately knew what Ange intended and quickly cooperated, saying, "The Lord needs to study the properties of this filth to see the best method for clearing it. Let's move away so as not to disturb the Lord."
The Holy Shroud has a special ability that can isolate Soul Contact and Consciousness Projection. If a Consciousness Projection is on the Star Flame, using the Holy Shroud to wrap it can sever the link between consciousness and the body.
If consciousness is singular, losing consciousness would cause the body to collapse. If consciousness is not singular, it would be like a Deceit Tree, growing a new entity.
Anthony didn't know the specific situation, but there was surely a reason why Ange pulled out the Holy Shroud. All Anthony could do was prevent the Star Mover from seeing things they shouldn't.
