Barrington was not entirely surprised at the King's Squire seeming to dismiss him on the spot since others like him tended to lie profusely to sell devices, it was quite distasteful really and gave the rest a bad name. Upon following along with Arthur to his office he couldn't help but feel some pity for the man despite the rough and tumble nature he seemed to possess with such small accommodations. The inventor had the smallest of his boxed luggage leaned up against his side and favorite side arm tucked under his belt, the 'pistol' hardly qualified the term because of its larger size overall as well as more open barrel, the contents of the box from what was visible where small glints shined out from underneath the cover. His eyes shifted between his companions once again wondering about the Priest and Half-vampire in more of a curious nature than anything, this seemed like a fight neither would be apart of but yet here they were, as for the Templar only an imbecile wouldn't expect one to show up to fight demons or otherwise. There were questions he might brooch at a later time as to who they were beyond the guise projected in a group though it was purely out of curiosity should he even get an answer.
Barry turned to the knight as he started speaking rather not wanting to miss details or information about the 'quest' as he called it. The man made some simple but effective points if not in the most elegant terms but better to say it in layman's to have it understood by all. The engineer made some mental notes about how the squire instructed the others for later reference finding some insight here or there though it was clear the man had quite limited expectations of a traveling intellectual to which his response was a noticeable sniff of disapproval."Tricks maybe. However if I lacked conviction in the success of them there would be but three standing before you." He said calmly holding the ground of his usefulness. It was a contrast to the dark humor which he found silently amusing but was in no rush to make a further enemy for such a thing though he could tell the lady Templar was on edge.
The inventor was mildly surprised Arthur decided to take them out so quickly given his lack of faith but he suppose it was to figure out who was the wheat among the group sooner rather than later. Apparently this was the cue of the Half-vampire to trade some modesty for practicality in dress which while it did hold his attention for a moment the gentleman in him quickly had him avert his gaze unlike the two 'guards' behind them. Simple pleasures for simple men. He thought drawing out his pistol to make some final checks on it. Afterwards it was a matter of deciding what else he would be taking along though he had an idea to bring a bit of everything so to speak as they had only inkling as to what they would face. A fact brought up by the Templar to which he gave an approving "Knowledge is power." In the end he decided on bringing a couple of hand made explosives, he had heard the term 'grenado' thrown around and quite liked it, fire bombs of similar make but in small ceramic/glass pots to be shattered on impact and finally something he called a 'springrazor' which essentially propelled sharp wire in a short lived whirlwind around the device shredding flesh to ribbons even if it wasn't always immediately lethal.
"Quite ready for a test run." Barrington said having finished securing all of his 'tricks' in place for easy access while the trekked through the crypt.
