Sephiroth delivered a careful look between Ashelia and Ramza as his words seemed to have some immediate effect on her; was that some type of magic that Ramza had used? Seemed like it. More important to note, that their abilities could indeed affect not only the world they were in but the charge they were to protect as well.
Someone needed to stay with the Princess and so Sephiroth did so instead of scouting ahead. He couldn't well be two places at once even if he generally wasn't a team player. Sparks' comment about going in guns-a-blazing was suitably ignored. Once Ashelia was ready to begin to descend the stairwell, he'd accompany her. Who knew if he might have to catch her; shaky as she was to begin with.
As they entered the garden, the night time tranquility afforded it a long sweeping look around. Despite the distant clashing of weapons that could be heard seemed to be on another world for a moment but as they accompany Ashelia through the garden the shout of voices instantly shock Sephiroth back into a battle stance; Masamune is raised instantly as the soldiers then begin their charge.
"Quickly-" He grunts, noting the obvious spell being cast on the back line but otherwise doesn't hesitate. There is no question that these soldiers, for one reason or another, can see them.
The alacrity awarded by a life time of mako-infusion is quite unlike anything Sephiroth is capable of in Crystallis, one moment he's there all tense and ready slightly behind Ashelia and the next he's darted forwards and answered their threat with a long sweep of his sword at the front-line of the six-piece charge as they conveniently come to meet it.
He might be showing off, just a little, though it's for a very good cause.
