[But okay, he's not really being serious with that threat. But he'll absolutely be making a judgement call based on his feelings for her. The fact that he loves her so much is the very reason he doesn't want to allow her to risk her life in the first place-- but as long as he's by her side, he knows he can keep her safe.]
[Or at least, he has to believe that he can.]
I don't intend to leave this battlefield without you. [He reaches up to rest a gloved hand on top of hers.] So long as you are here, protecting you will be my priority.
I can slow the dragon down while you get into position. But please-- be careful.
[For him to be emphasizing it this much might be giving away how worried he is. Unlike her, he has very little faith in being able to take out the dragon.]
[Which is probably worrying in its own way.]
[But the bat will start to fly higher now, and as it does, Mipha will feel a tugging sensation as she's encouraged to follow it higher. For now, Mephisto stays put -- but as Mipha rises higher into the air, he waves his hand in the dragons direction. When he does, thousands or deep cuts tear open across it's back and wings, shredding them in an instant. With a pained cry, the dragon plummets from the sky. But he can only damage it for so long -- the rotten, oozing flesh quickly stitching itself back together before it can even completely touch the ground.]
