[ It's lucky that Magnus has this fight to thoroughly occupy his mind, because having someone he'd thought was Lucretia maybe not be Lucretia is...not great. The fighter is even a little distracted as he chases after the Krampus, stealing glances back at her, missing the creature once or twice more. ]
Shit. [ Okay, focus. He steels himself with a long breath and, once the monster reappears, does a sort of running leap toward it. Luckily, it's a little distracted by the other person in the arena, and he's able to land a solid slice. The Krampus shrieks and fades again, but this time in a way that, at least, suggests defeat.
There. Slowly he turns, ax in his hand, eyes again narrowed. ]
