[ wow don't think about another redhead when you've got one already in front of u...!!
Just kidding, Sylvain definitely does not want any more of Sukuna's attention than is strictly necessary. And yet! He keeps up the conversation, because somehow drinking in silence is less preferable to chatting up a sociopath... (Or maybe he's had enough similar experiences in the past that he can truthfully claim to be used to it... This is almost like spending time with Miklan again, callous attitude and prospect of murder included.) ]
My guess is they're perfectly aware, and just can't bring themselves to care.
[ That's just misery for you... Not that Sylvain hasn't been pampered all his life, crest-bearing heir of a nobleman that he is, but his father's lands have seen hard times in the past. It's not hard to identify what suffering looks like, though he's not going to start preaching compassion to this particular passenger. ]
If it's between lying and being denied service, [ has this guy ever been kicked out of a tavern before... ] then I don't mind doing it to fill my belly for another night. Never know when your next meal might be.
So who is it you're looking for? [ 'Subordinate'...? Does this guy run a crime ring or something? (Wow he really is reminding Sylvain of his late sibling.) ]
