Sure thing this guy was getting more and more curious— while Majima absolutely understood the sentiment of paying one own's dues, the obscenely rich people usually expected to be pampered. Ha, they felt they're entitled to it, and since "the customer is king" they got exactly that. This humble attitude from an investor was almost unheard of.

"Hmm, personally I'm a new addition to the crew, but it has been so eventful it almost feels like I've been forever." Majima didn't let the Kansai accent into his speech, but he allowed himself a little more relaxed tone. It felt more fitting to the nature of their conversation.

"I'm unsure how much do you know about the cabaret club scene in the Sotenbori, nor do I know how it looks elsewhere... suffice to say, it's quite bloodthirsty. Metaphorically speaking, of course." Majima couldn't help but smirk as he added that small assurance. Kiryu doesn't need to know that it could absolutely get dark and violent. "Everyone got a rather competitive streak, and a club can fall out of favour in just one night, should they lose a club challenge battle. Sunshine started with nothing, but now—?"

Majima extended his arm and drew it around the room theatrically. The interior elegant, freshly renovated, music loud just enough to mute conversations from other tables, but not enough to hinder conversation between a customer and a hostess.

"Thanks to the passion of the staff, and your generosity, Sunshine is close to becoming the top club in all of Sotenbori. We have emerged victorious in every challenge issued to us, and we do not intend to stop until we get to the very top."

If he wanted to stroke the investor's ego more, he should have put the 'generosity' first, but he didn't want to butter up in such a fake way. It was a gamble, of course, but he hoped he was right in his impression that Kiryu was more of an honest man, rather than an entitled loaded prick.

"The girl I want to introduce you to has become the top hostess by her willpower and ever-present curiosity."

Thank god Yuki wasn't around to hear him praising her!
