Although Emperor Renardier was unsettled by Vaan's presence, it wasn't the time for him to satisfy his curiosity and doubts.
"Now is the time for you to hand over our imperial princess!" one of the two white-armored marquis, a pot-bellied blonde man with chubby cheeks and a swirly mustache, strongly demanded with a threatening tone.
"Of course. That is why we are here," Aeliana amicably announced with a sweet, charming smile, enchanting the pot-bellied marquis in a brief daze. Her beauty easily moved the hearts of men.
But anyone with the slightest awareness of Aeliana's true nature would have known that she wasn't one to respond to open hostilities with friendly kindness normally. She had to restrain her wild nature for the rare instance.
Nevertheless, Aeliana's vines, which restrained Dorothy's ability to move, speak, and see, unfurled, freeing her. The vines then joined with other vines, forming interlocking patterns to create a bridge to the white magic airship.
