Reggie can't help but elicit a nervous gulp as the demon-ess works down her little list of possible fates. Being butchered by a male sounds like something they'd start with on his "lower" head, and getting his "little serpent" sucked literally off the hinges isn't a very nice way to go, either. Her comment about a "dragon-skin cloak" irks him a bit, feeling put down by the comparison to a simple crocodile...but he doesn't react to it, doing his best to keep his cool. The only way he can see to get out of this is to play along, and make his getaway when he has a real chance to do so. That said, he's having a moral battle with himself on such a choice. He hates the idea of manipulation, even if it's for something as simple as self-preservation...but if he doesn't, then they'll kill him, and his freedom will end in whatever manner they choose.
After a bit of silence with a deep-thinking look on his face, he decides that tricking demons like these is nothing to really fret over, considering how much they've done so themselves. If anything, it's showing them how their own exploited victims feel. With reluctance both in his tone of voice, and written all over his face, he quietly mutters: "...Okay, I'm listening...what do you want me to do, specifically?"
