When they returned to the negotiation, the Empire agreed to ransom everyone back, even if they couldn't take them away.
Afterwards, they formally entered the stage of interest entanglement.
The diplomat requested to see the status of several nobles, followed by the professors and Mecha Masters.
This side complied with their wishes.
Imperial diplomat: "We want to talk to them to ensure they are the people we want, not impostors."
"Only three people can be spoken to."
"You can't be so unreasonable."
"The unreasonable ones are you, the hostages are still in our hands, we can do whatever we want, we'll just give you a bit of face. This is the etiquette we, the Ten Stars, give to outsiders, not a reason for you to overstep."
Everyone knows what's going on in their hearts, what's on your mind we also think about, what you can't think of, we also have to consider.
Be assertive when necessary.
However, what was promised won't be reneged on.
