The suddenly animated statue indeed startled Sanderion, but she wasn't overly surprised by it.
After all, the thing made her feel both dangerous and eerie, clearly not something simple; it moving was perfectly normal.
However, this also posed an obstacle to her plan for a quick resolution; the werewolf armor clearly couldn't destroy it swiftly.
It's not that the werewolf armor couldn't destroy it, but Sanderion wanted a quick end to it before the statue caused more trouble.
Seeing the werewolf armor unable to swiftly break through the statue's defenses, Sanderion immediately adjusted her tactics, sending Aruluru to support the werewolf armor while she took on the task of suppressing the Skull Giant Beast.
This adjustment improved the battlefield situation significantly. With Aruluru's distraction, the werewolf armor quickly broke through the statue's defense and with a powerful slash cut down the divine sword held by the statue.
