[Empiricist]

"So she is a recluse after all."

She hands over the a bottle to the other people requesting them.
"We just fought off Mammon and Leviathan sent troops to find you. I trust you'd understand they have a greater interest in interrupting your reading than we. All we need are our adventurer licenses."
"Also, I would like to request that the forces under your command be disciplined properly. They call themselves Servants of the Demon Lord yet lack both the grace and attire one would expect from a servant."

[Praefectus Screptum]

"If by 'true art' you mean being a lazy bum doing nothing but blabbering about Revivian MHMPH, I might need some wine, alright."
Jarvis turned his attention to Asuna in hopes that at least she would be able to translate this nonsense.
"What the MPMH, is a hikkiNEET, Ito? Also if you could hand me over another bottle, Marcia, I would be MPMPHM grateful."

[Empiricist]

"Coming right up!"
Action: Marcia continues serving wine and offers some to Belphegor while she's at it.

[Sirus]

: "Ah, so that's a Demon General. Milords and ladies had me rather confused."

Not to be outdone, 42-1 proffers his tea tray.

[SeriousConcentrate]

Keith pondered what to do; everyone else was already talking at Belphegor and it didn't look like any fighting was about to break out.

"Hey, Wander. Can I borrow your tablet? I wanna see what those are all about."

[SirAston]

"Later, my dear American Wolfhound... Later..."

Her attention was fixated on the potential discussions about products imported from Kaisei and a form of technology that, in the wrong hands, could result in devastation, annihilation, war, and crappy fan projects.

[SeriousConcentrate]

Keith sighed. That wasn't happening. No one else in the party likely had one except Serena, and he didn't think she was the type who lent her possessions out easily judging from how she'd talked to the elf-guy.

"Wish I had a Famicom here. I could kill some time playing Punch-Out!! or Tetris or something. Hell, I'd take Urban Champion over boredom."

He laced his hands behind his head and looked up at the ceiling.

[Twinwolf]

Selene heard the question, and coughed.

"You can borrow mine if you want. Long as you don't run off with it."

She wasn't exactly planning to use it in the immediate future, given the demon general in front of them.

[SeriousConcentrate]

"Huh? Oh."

"Thanks, lil' red. I won't hurt it, I promise. Scout's honor."

He held up his hand in the traditional Boy Scout's gesture, before quickly realizing that would be utterly meaningless here; the Boy Scouts weren't much of a thing in Japan, let alone this alternate world, so it was very unlikely anyone in Generia would recognize it.

"By the way, did we ever swap names? I'm Keith Piper."

[Twinwolf]

"Good, I don't have the money for another... Oh, I don't think we did actually mention names. I'm Selene."

[SeriousConcentrate]

"Good to meet you. Sorry about the boss. That's just... how she is."

[Praefectus Screptum]

"Thank MPMPH, Marcia. "

[IamanElfCollaborator]

"....you know, after all this time, you'd think I'd be surprised that one of the Demon Generals is a hikkiNEET, but....I'm really not. I'm really, really not."
"Okay. Now I'm a little confused. She's a Demon General?"
"Yes. I'm a Demon General. Even if I haven't done any real work in that line since.....uh....Cecil founded Cornelia."

"Manga... Computing engines... ..."
"I see that you're a woman of culture as well."

"Oh hell, it's a Revivian. Wait. Wait a second. I know you."
"You're that chick who dumps hundreds of rhea every month whenever an Asteria alt comes out on Clash of Legends! KingCringeSon or whatever. Yeah."

In that moment, Asuna had a realization.
:"Oh my God... you’re a hikkiNEET."

"Correction; I'm not a NEET like most of you Revivians. I actually have two jobs."

"So she is a recluse after all."

She hands over the a bottle to the other people requesting them.
"We just fought off Mammon and Leviathan sent troops to find you. I trust you'd understand they have a greater interest in interrupting your reading than we. All we need are our adventurer licenses."
"Also, I would like to request that the forces under your command be disciplined properly. They call themselves Servants of the Demon Lord yet lack both the grace and attire one would expect from a servant."

"Ugh. Those killjoys won't leave me alone. We got a potential untapped market in mortals and they just want to kill them all because 'oh, it's our destiny' and 'oh, mortals are just as bad as demons'. Ugh, give me a break. Can you tell them to go away? Lie to them for me, say nobody was here?"
"And....I don't have servants. Here, at any rate. You'll have to take that up with Corporate, over in Kaisei. Still, cheers for the wine."
She does, in fact, take some prosecco.

"Well, ain't that just peachy. Now the MPPMH are also talking about 'mangas' and more Revivian nonsense."

"Well, you try finding something to do for three thousand years. After three thousand years, even you'd get tired of looking like that weird Wiggler that lives under Generia."

"Good to meet you. Sorry about the boss. That's just... how she is."

"I'm a goddess. My job is to smite demons. But....if they can make themselves useful, I suppose a goddess can be also merciful and forgiving."
"Speaking of which, why aren't we smiting Belphegor?! She's a Demon General!"
"Only by technicality. I still collect the paychecks and pay lip service, but like I said, I haven't done anything to pester you mortals since that guy Cecil founded Cornelia. A good guy, he was."

[Empiricist]

"Ugh. Those killjoys won't leave me alone. We got a potential untapped market in mortals and they just want to kill them all because 'oh, it's our destiny' and 'oh, mortals are just as bad as demons'. Ugh, give me a break. Can you tell them to go away? Lie to them for me, say nobody was here?"
"And....I don't have servants. Here, at any rate. You'll have to take that up with Corporate, over in Kaisei. Still, cheers for the wine."
She does, in fact, take some prosecco.

"I would not be opposed to that. They said that they lost contact with you, perhaps if you could set up something like that golem but for your own communication channels we could all avoid such incidents in future."
"That being said, their entrance summoned a storm above this castle and caused quite the commotion, I'd imagine others will come investigate soon enough. Will that be a problem for you?"

[IamanElfCollaborator]

"Ugh, but that takes effort."
"And yes, that will be a problem. I'll have to move hiding places. Again. I still don't know how Mammon found me in that casino in Midgardia, I was SURE I did everything to keep that foxhole hidden. Honestly, only two things worth putting effort into; hiding from that deranged headless idiot and making fat stacks of cash, am I right?"
