On one hand, Inko was concerned for one of his kin and on the other hand, Yukinari's combat partner was waiting for his doom as he didn't have the strength or the energy left to retaliate.
" Ice Attribute: Magnitude!"
Magnitude acts as a barrier but also as a defensive spell at the same time. When used, not only does it protect but it also counterattacks. It's a very useful spell and powerful at that.
While Yukinari's combat partner was waiting for his doom to come, Yukinari stepped into the fight to save him. He thought that was the appropriate time to act. Using his "Magnitude" spell, he managed to form a barrier around him and also counter the attack and he did all that at the same time.
" Are you okay?" Yukinari didn't know how to refer to him as he had yet to know his name. While struggling to find how to address him, a new attack approached. Yukinari used the same spell to counter it.
