"Don't have to get all militaristic upon me, but I do know how that is like." He said with a soft wink in the direction of Makarov. "My name, is Kovu. I'm the king of these lands and I take it quite seriously to admit certain people into it. "You said you wished to help us, but I don't find it right to let you, seeing I don't know if I can trust you or not. Give me one reason, thats all that I require, that you should be allowed to help us." He said with a sly smirk on his face. He wasn't trying to scare or act intimidating to the lion. But whenever he said that line, it made him have to do it. Just to see if the new comers would back off. In uncertainty that is.
Makarov was not swayed at the authority before him, but alloted a place in his mind that demanded respect. He'd learned that respect may also be an exact translation to 'walking upon like a carpet' to those that did speak any English. These lions did, and Makarov was now weighing what perspective they assembled in.
