The demon is silent and still as he watches the child examine the coins, patient and then pleased when they earn approval. A demon king giving out gold without being explicitly asked for it is not... entirely how his type of entity functions, but this place has bent and warped and reshaped certain rules. In many ways he is a trapped thing. In other ways, he has become more free.

He's ready to conjure more coins if needed, but this seems to be enough — more than enough, apparently, and Paimon finally blinks with curiosity (well, it's sort of a blink, more of a half-flutter of the eyelids; working a human face is still weird). Something good...? Oh, he's extremely excited to see this for himself, reaching to gently tuck the potion bottles into his bag, safely nestled inbetween the other items.

With that, he moves to follow the mysterious thing, head dipped and eyes alive and aware with a certain brightness. The concept of exchange is at the very root of his functioning, at the core of what he is, ancient and sacred. If the child needs to give him something to make up a difference, then he will certainly follow that — and he's driven by a sparkling curiosity to see what it may be.
