[The last thing he expected from this encounter was the fear of being absorbed into the very thing that attacked them- maybe that was its plan the whole time when it had grabbed him and dragged him underwater. Separate the two of them, absorb one and then go for the other.
He stares in horror as more of his body sinks further in, losing sight of his legs and now in danger of having his head go in, when he hears the frenzied scream of Yoimiya behind him. Suddenly, he sees fire explode behind the monster, burning it and causing it to screech in pain. It doesn't loosen him out of the monster any more, but the thrashing about its doing isn't making it worse, like it was trying to pull away. Heat rushes past him from the fire, warming him from the cold water still dripping from his body, and he smiles- Yoimiya's been able to tap into her power, and now this thing's gunna get it.
He says nothing, save for the low, satisfied chuckle when the arrow slams into the monster's back and sets it ablaze. Fire sears and explodes all around it and Ajax, but he doesn't feel the pain from it- another neat little nuance. It doesn't appear like he can be hurt from her power...which will make them an even more dangerous duo.
The monster writhes as parts of it dissolve into nothingness, and Ajax starts to pull himself out of it where its body has been burned away, clearing the way for Yoimiya to take it out completely with her bow. He turns his head just so to catch a glimpse of her wielding it once again, and the sight of it takes his breath away. Dangerous, beautiful, staring down the danger here with no hesitation while she declares her intent. Calling him king. Yoimiya, a fun, energetic girl from Inazuma is really showing that she's a warrior above all things, and it warms his heart and sets his soul ablaze for her.
She's an excellent queen, and he couldn't be more proud.
Finally freeing himself, he rolls out of the way for her to do her worst to it without having to worry about anything harming him, leaving the wounded abomination to Yoimiya's mercy- or lack thereof.]
