The throne in the back holds an Emperor Soul.
Of course you need to defeat the Ghouls in front of you fast. Try to use Rose Whip to numb some of the lizard men or ghouls. The Sorcerers will soon be casting attack up and spells on you so they should be of prime concern. If you stay from the edges you should be able to avoid the Operator’s by the cannons. Again, use a were on the cannons to reveal treasures. Taurus himself really isn’t that hard and just does physical attacks, which can be dodged. Stay healed and surround him after you get all the items (especially Emperor Soul).
After defeating him he turns into his Were form. Great Bull Taurus has BullRush that does decent damage but really isn’t any different than Cho’s Were. Just surround him since you probably had him surrounded in human form anyway. After the battle, Lord Taurus and Lady Tessen join as Sanzo’s Staff is stolen by the boy Pyric.

Chapter 3 – The Promised Land
Frontier Village
You don’t have your staff anymore. Meanwhile Kannon and Deva have a scene and then your party does in Frontier Village.
Have you ever wondered about Sanzo?
Great guide
