169. Negotiations with Guy

Rather than standing around chatting, we decided to head inside.

I guided Guy towards a VIP lounge located in Tempest.

Its furnishings were chosen by Myourmilles, and if he went on a rampage there we would incur heavy losses.

Some expensive pieces of artwork had also been displayed.

It was a special lounge where only the specially selected, or the highest of nobles were accommodated.

Showy things aside, the arrangements also allowed one to experience elegance, simplicity, and a subdued refinement, which truly showed Myourmilles’ sensitivity to my own tastes.

To reach this level, Rigurdo and the others still needed much more experience. However, since he had said something like 「This place is very calming.」, our tastes may unexpectedly match.

Returning to the topic, if Guy went on a rampage we’d handle that then.

Since we had no other suitable rooms to accommodate him, we had no choice but to expect a certain level of damage. We couldn’t just take the strongest of the Demon Lords to a common guest lounge.

And whilst half-resignedly guiding him,

「Hey, You’ve got some good taste. I also happen to like this type of furnishings.」

Guy complemented.

That was pretty surprising, as far as surprises go.

I had misunderstood him as this tyrant who wouldn’t have any idea of subtle elegance.

No, when you think about it, even Oda Nobunaga may have perhaps had this sort of taste……

Maybe, the more short tempered and violent ones were more likely to have peaceful hearts.

No well, it might just be my mistaken impression, but it really was the right choice bringing him here.

Sitting on a high-class wooden chair carved from aromatic woods, I faced Guy.

On top of a small table between us, tea was served and its aroma wafted through the room.

It looked simple at first glance, but a surprising amount of attention to details was put in……

「You’re pretty good! Our dimwits wouldn’t be able to pull this off at all.

I wonder if should I should send them here for some training?」

Well I’m glad you’re pleased.

Or rather, even since I came to this world, I’ve been doing nothing but what I pleased.

In any case, this was the first time I had to be this careful around the other party.

No, after meeting Veldora, this would be the second time?

Putting aside whether or not I can win against him, I just wanted to avoid conflict as much as possible.

It’s too troublesome to deal with. Because it will definitely result in some broken things.

「Oh really? You’re actually the first one I’ve brought here you know.

This is the highest grade parlor we have, we only bring in those who we want to make a good impression on.」

「Ah? So you want to make a good impression on me?」

「Yeah that’s right. Or else I couldn’t call myself a good Demon Lord now could I.
