This is confusing... after the dream with the fish girl several volumes back, I was expecting the next wife to be water element, but this chapter implies the emperor wishes to forgo the swaymayer and offer the princess’s hand to mars if he defeats her in a dual... I can’t help but picture a female version of the marvel character archangel after the description of the sword maiden.....
Unless the dream was related to what Isabella looked like before she attained demigod rank?
