Certain nightmare-induced lapses in judgement set aside;[what a sentence to preface the next statement]
I feel you have your wits about you more than our leader ever does.
[but then again, Ydris is a god of humans. They trust in a man like Ryouma by default far more than any yokai. Especially any yokai hiding behind a mask and a costume.]
We have a deal, then. I'll wire you the money. Let me know if it is sufficient. I suspect I'll need you soon.
[they have a promotion on the horizon, given EMBER's continued success. Tapping into the Celestials was a win for the whole Alliance, given those heavenly beings control so much of the land rented out by their establishments. Funneling the money paid out to them in rent back down to hell was an advantageous sort of feedback loop.
And Ryouma will get a tidy chunk of cash for his debt. Ydris doesn't use money for much else aside from those they care for and their ambitions. Ryouma serves both categories, in this case. The dragon will be generous.]
