Chiyoko stayed quiet after Sarubi person made his offer, continuing to smoke thoughtfully. This man wasn't vague about his intentions, meaning he clearly wanted her to trust him, yet, it appears that he hadn't done as much research as he thought he had. Otherwise, he would have known about Chiyoko's best interests already, and what he just admitted was a big no-no according to her views. It seemed that he wouldn't be deterred, however, and was indeed set on his ways. They both knew it was going to take a little bit more negotiation before they could have an agreement, and Chiyoko was debating exactly how much he'd be willing to compromise before he decided to do things the hard way, something Chiyoko was already considering. Mikado was either going to be a great friend or a greater enemy.
For now, however, Chiyoko was going to take him up on the offer to be civil. After all, civility was one of Chiyoko's greatest traits. "I suppose I should take this outside, indeed," she replied at last, examining her kiseru. "And besides, looks like I'm not worthy to be within these premises anymore," she added sardonically, of course referring to the Oni prince that entered the bar. A rare sight, indeed, and it concerned Chiyoko slightly. Why that pompous, elitist knucklehead was placing himself among the common folk like a decent person for once was beyond her. Sticking around, looking obviously shady and dealing in shady matters could not have been good actions to continue while he was around, that foolish prince who's so self-convinced of his keenness that he even fathoms them being rivals, as if they were on equal footing. Chiyoko knows that she has confounded him on many occasions and continues to do so, while he tries his best to catch up and fool himself into thinking he has the upper hand.
Taking the man's hand graciously and allowing him to escort her up, she suddenly decided to address one of his company-men, the Oni who have been so patient as to be there so respectfully. "It's nice to see that you're in good shape, Chiba. I hope your economic situation is doing better. And the rest of you, thank you for being so patient. I really appreciate it." With a kind smile, just like that, Chiyoko was back to being that kind old lady that she was when she walked into the bar. She took one final drink of sake before offering her hand back to Mikado, grinning. "Shall we, young man?"
