Draiss grinned at her before sticking out his tongue, before shaking his head. "The fact they 'forgot' about your specially designed armor is what worries me. Constructs don't normally forget, or misinterpret orders. Note to self, have the armory constructs undergo diagnostics when we get back. And Inari, dear, yours was heavier than Ama's, though you clearly haven't seen me fight if you think I can get anymore close combat."<br/><br/>He glared at the stairs leading up, grumbling various unpleasant things that surely would have scorched the tower to a crisp had they been said louder, before he looked up at the ceiling. "You know, getting to the top as a group isn't going to happen. Instead, going to try some lateral thinking. Bet you two that if it is just the three of us, we drop out a floor or two before Verdelet's."<br/><br/>He pulled out a small portal generator, and fiddled with the controls through his suit, a couple of constructs making 'helpful' advice like making sure the exit wasn't into a wall or floor, or that it wasn't into a black hole, or equally useful advice, to the point where he nearly ordered them to charge the next room without waiting for the rest of the carefully pulling back death squad constructs. "Alright, enough with the snarking. Ama and Inari on me, we are using lateral thinking, scary I know. The rest of you, blast your way as high as you can, if I get done with Verdelet and none of you are there, going to be very lonely."
