[Mettaton struggles harder, the sound of the young boss monster's pain making him frantic. The rising hum and the painful shock seizes him again and he yells for a different reason than Asriel. Perhaps it's...almost a blessing. The distraction takes him from having to watch Asriel's arm begin to dissolve into small puffs of dust.
He was cruel at times, but Mettaton couldn't bear the thought of enduring that kind of pain, much less hearing it consciously.
He takes his own pain and uses it to drown out Asriel's.
