Leona, in response to the King's statement, began, "We have come to demand that you—" Before she could finish her statement, Oliver suddenly tapped her right shoulder with his right hand, causing her to pause.
Leaning close towards Leona's ear, Oliver whispered, "Let me handle this, okay?" Leona didn't know why Oliver suddenly wanted to take charge, but she didn't see a big deal in it, so she decided to let him. "Oh, okay," she mumbled in response.
Tower master Cordillera simply gazed at Oliver, musing, "If he's going to handle things the same way he did with me, then this won't even be a conversation."
Oliver walked slightly ahead of Leona, then spoke to King Leonheart, saying, "Alright, old man, get up. You're coming with us to meet my liege."
