Yeah, he's not actually going anywhere. And yeah, his ego does deflate a little bit, seeing Genjo make the crossing easily enough himself, if with somewhat more effort than Devero needed.
Now's not the time for a dick-measuring competition with Koumyou's son, though, not really. He turns away into the building to start the process of evacuation.
In this, at least, they get lucky. All of the stairwells remain intact, and there are only a handful of people on this side of the building. A couple of those on the far side make it over before the two pieces have drifted too far apart; the rest communicate that they'll find their own way.
Devero and Genjo end up with 9 intact but shaken civilians to herd to the park. Devero addresses the group, letting them know that he and Sanzo are going to take them somewhere safe from the dissolution of the city, somewhere they'll be protected.
"Even from the Voidtreckers?" one of them calls out uncertainly. They glance at Sanzo. "Can you do that-- purple thing to them, too?"
