The confusion that flooded the Bond was met with dancing emerald eyes and a flash of a white-toothed grin in the twilight waters. No one drowns when they are with me, the King said simply, but there was no time for further conversation as the spar continued and Noah moved back onto the attack.
The grapple caught Hadama off guard, and before he could dodge away again the demigod had grabbed him. The mermanta wasn't used to being overpowered and he let out a grunt of surprise that was deepened by the water surrounding them as Noah's arms wrapped around his chest.
There wasn't a surface for Noah to pin him down to, however, and no air currently in his lungs for the human to squeeze out,but his ribs creaked painfully under the pressure. With a powerful flick of his muscular tail Hadama attempted to put them into a spin so that Noah was beneath him - and he could drag his sparring parnter across a sandbar in an attempt to scrape the demigod off.
