[There is an order of operations to this. The door must be sealed first, that's a Sypha job. Ice is good for that, easy to do at a range. Trevor needs clearance, so Alucard must knock the forgemaster away from the corpse so that there is no time for his work to begin. Then the man must be dealt with as the situation calls for. An alive man is fine, but if he perishes, then so be it. Intelligence is important, but safety is paramount right now.
Alucard's hand grips his sword tightly, even if he doesn't really need to. The telepathic link takes care of such work. He's tense, worried about Trevor's wrist, worried about what kind of bonus tricks a man like this could have up his sleeve. Intelligence was hard to gather - he spent much of his time hocking fake potions in the tourist districts that didn't work. A necromancer making a living.
He can see Sypha move. Her breath is too shallow, he doesn't like that. But more than that, now is the time to start moving. He nods at her, then to the door.
No words, but they don't need them in situations like this.
