The shock on everyone was warranted as having elves as slaves is unheard of. To be sure, this must be from black market stuff and perhaps, if Renatta was also found by others as well, she might have been sold off as well. I looked at Renatta and I can see her trembling in agitation when she saw her brethren inside the cages.
But then, the sudden outburst Riko suddenly made everyone shocked including her parents.
"Free them now! Why are you enslaving them?! Free them from the cage!" Riko angrily shouted and went to the stage.
"But they are elves! They are not humans! This is fine and this isn't illegal! They might look like humans but they aren't and they shouldn't even be considered as one!"
"What a load of bull, Father! Where are the keys?! I will be unlocking their cages! Look at them! They are wounded! You can't even treat them right?! I am so disappointed in you Dad. You as well, Mom for agreeing with Dad about this."
