I'm crossing fingers he'll go for the 2nd option -- sound Ryou out about being Qaltaqas' spouse & give him a well timed nudge, even. Aqnam doesn't come across
at all as malicious or interfering; that just doesn't seem like him. Perfect, no. Well meaning (in his own mind, at least) yes.
This is probably going one of two ways; Aqnam is either going to tell him not to be as nice to Qaltaqa/tell him to get a wife or he's going to test him to see if he's suitable/tell Ryou to become Qaltaqa's wife. I'm hoping something surprising happens instead but based on other manga those are the likely outcomes.
