Both Arnold's and Shiva's expressions turned grim. Primordial was right. They felt despair like never before. It wasn't as bad for shiva as it was for Arnold as he had fought the thing before.
That being said, neither of them was prepared to fight against three equally powerful primordial when facing off against one itself was proving to be a task they couldn't complete. That would have been the case if they weren't going to use their strengthening abilities.
'Sorry to ask you this, but would you mind taking a more passive role in the fight?' Arnold asked Shiva through telepathy.
'The spotlight has always been yours.' Shiva replied and took a step back, 'Just let me know when you need help.'
'Will do.'
Without wasting a moment, Arnold once again charged right towards the primordial and his clones. Even the primordial was a bit surprised by his reckless move. Had he given all hope to live? That was probably the reason.
