King François can't force anything on Rio, nothing, Rio's title comes without that kind of obligations, François isn't a fool either, he understands well that trying to force something strange on Rio is a sure way of making him an enemy and of losing Satsuki's trust, even worser, the two can run away together from the Galarc for not coming back, François knows well that it's his end if that happens, different from Hugenot he undestands well the importance of the mutual trust between the two parts of a relationship, if there's someone who there isn't neccesary to fear would do something strange that is François.

About Rio's identity as royalty, Christina's and Flora's words on that regard worths nothing without evidence and without the Karasuki kingdom backing him, whoever thinks that Rio's royal lineage can be of any use to him is better letting that thought go, if Rio says he's royalty first they would have to ask the Karasuki kingdom to confirm it, Rio would have to take officials from the Galarc kingdom to meet his grandparents and they shall acknowledge Rio as a royalty in their presence, that it's impossible for several reasons, there isn't a way Rio would transport nobles from the Galarc kingdom to the Yagumo region, his grandparents can't recognize him as royalty either due to his parents' past, even if they confirm Rio's royal origins Rio would have to reveal his real name for the sake of that, something he doesn't want either, the likelyhood of the Galarc kingdom minding the relationship with a kingdom from the Yagumo region which it's almost impossible to keep contact with by both sides is at minimum close to zero, once Rio has his status as royalty responsabilities according with how much he wants to gain from having it would come too, and those responsabilities are the thing Rio wishes less for in the world even more when Rio himself considers that if some noble does something strange to simply not appearin front of that person again is the best.
