This is an entirely sincere comment, Root trying to sort through the pile of questions crowding her brain. For all her pessimism and fundamentally bleak outlook on reality, she has a bright spark of curiosity and wonder at finding new boundaries to the universe. It feels something like relief that there might be more out there than she'd ever thought -- because what's out there has so far been terribly disappointing.
She thinks it over as she strides out with Claudia with perfect confidence, her whole attitude that of a casual stroll away from the corpse they're leaving behind. "How lucky did I get meeting you first? Is it ignorant of me to assume vampires tend to be bad conversational partners?"
They seem more likely to dispose of her than put up with her questions, she means. Compliment very much intentionally implied.
