[ This is why Knives told Nen to turn back?! He knew the other couldn't handle it, he should have just left him if he was being honest with himself. But...if he's being honest with himself he wouldn't have allowed the other to do that either. At least this way he can just grab Nen by the waist and hoist him casually into his arm as he drags them to their feet and then into the air. His blades are doing a damn good job of stopping anything before it gets too close. Unfortunately whatever is going on beneath them is beyond even Knives' scope and so that surprise ambush makes his head snap towards the scorpion in question and then he feels the first stings of pain.
There's not even a shout of pain or anger from him, just a burst of flame as that scorpion is practically melted on contact and then stabbed through its torso by Knives' blade in his hand. He's still holding onto Nen as a few scorpions manage to strike him, only furthering to make him angrier and more enraged. There's a growl from him that Nen will be able to hear but he also might breathe a little bit of fire with that exhale of an angry breath?! Sorry Nen he's really pissed off right now, it doesn't help that his face is flushed with fever but he seems more or less fine?? The tendrils from his back and cloak will strike and decimate whatever scorpions that are in the area around them. He'll give Nen an intense look though. ]

This is why I told you to leave.
