Mukai Reiji
As Reiji tags alongside the group, he was thankful that Klaus' approached Yazhu with the questions. That... wasn't something that he would have thought about pursuing, even if it was a commendable action in order to prepare for a mission. Usually, all the information that he would have needed would have been said. But, as that one saying goes, "old habits die hard, and bad habits hardly die." Still, the red haired man seemed dependable, and from what he had seen so far, seemed like a balanced candidate to take the mantle of the leader of the group, should the situation call for it.
Then on the other side of the spectrum was the musician. His eye twitched as the unnamed man's nature rears itself into the open, notably when he catches glimpse of that plain, false smile. Self-centered, conceited, and definitely grating, Reiji knew that he was going to be troublesome to work with. As he had reasoned with himself earlier, teamwork was the foundation of a successful mission, and the same was implied with the making of a plan of approach. Above all else, gathering intelligence was undoubtedly the proper path to follow whenever the opportunity presented itself. Even if attempted and nothing was gathered, the worst outcome would be starting back in square one. Best case scenario, they might find an opening and truly cut the commission to a ten minute run, which would benefit everyone in the team; Lixue would make it in time to his performance, and the rest would be able to get rid of his arrogant presence earlier. It was clear that the man wanted to rush things through for his own benefit, and even if he opposed creating friction, Reiji would have to disagree with the frontal assault tactic, even if they were lowly treasure hoarders. As Yazhu stated, they were outnumbered, and they had to account the unknown into the equation. But before he manages to formulate his words, Mu instead begins speaking what he intended to announce. Or at least, until a cannon makes itself apparent out of the humanoid's arm.
The kitsune's eyes mirror surprise as he turns to face the man on the opposite end of the glowing palm. Once Mu lowers his guard against the obviously late commissioner, Reiji's shock transitions to curiosity, following Yazhu's commentary. "Better late than never," Reiji jokes at the man in order to help ease the awkwardness. "I'm Reiji, our robot friend who you've just met is Mu. This fellow over here is... well, he's a man who needs no introduction," he improvises with a dash of wit. "And last but not least, this is Klaus." He didn't want to speak for them, but he thought it best for someone to fill in the gaps left out by their Millelith host to save some time.
"And on that subject," he continues, "I don't think it would hurt to make a quick observational tour around to see what's waiting for us. We might be able to cut the mission to a fraction of what we're expected to deal with if we manage to get some good strats out of it." His reasoning was mostly shaped at attempting to convince Lixue, who so far seemed the most inclined to go full force against the enemies ahead of them. But as things were, he wasn't sure how Klaus or this new face would tally their method. Either or, he would do his best to make whatever was agreed upon to work.
