Carl watched Ariana well at that time and knew that she's seriously wanted his honest thoughts on that. In fact, the same question was once asked by that same princess a long time ago but he refused to answer it back then.
He chuckles a little now because he again need to be in the same situation as long before.
"You know what? Somehow, I feel like you never lost your memories. You asked the same question before that I ignored. "
Ariana smiled at that. Looks like she and Rose have something in common there.
"Believe it or not. I also feel like I never lost my memories. " She lies while telling the truth at the same time.
"But this time, I came back stronger than before so I didn't want my people to feel forced by making the wrong choice. I just want all of you to rely on me now as I will not sit back and just watching anymore."
This time, Carl smirked.
