When Irhya separates 'the type to do that' from 'not wanting to fight', something like a puzzled frown is drawn from Elidibus. "Exactly what are you proposing Lahabrea is doing wrong?" There were a few things there. That Lahabrea would enjoy seeing a good creation compared to Elidibus is certainly true, though there is a reason Elidibus suggested Emet-Selch over the Speaker.
"Or do you feel he is not one to keep bargains?" Though when that would have ever come up is beyond the Emissary's knowledge. There was no reason for the Scions or Lahabrea to ever trust one another enough for a bargain. There may have been something else the miqo'te refers to and he'll certainly give room for her to answer.
But one last thing he asks of her in that strange, calm state. "You seem disappointed in my brethren. Given you are the Warrior of Light Lahabrea knows, do you truly find it unfair of him to have any negative reaction? In particular, should you have approached him here in the same way you no doubt approached the 'me' of your time?" He hasn't asked about Lahabrea's interactions with his Warrior of Light in detail. But it can't have gone well if she had thrown understanding and sympathy at his feet.
When he first approached her here. Indeed she had every right to be suspicious. Even if Elidibus himself hadn't recognized her, she had every reason to know about who he could have been. Had been fooled (or chosen to be fooled), just as he had by an illusion that just as well might have been an uneasy truce.
After having given ample time for his prior words to be addressed, Elidibus concludes, "You'll... help?" For a moment, he seems bemused, as though he isn't sure what he's hearing. He's not sneering. But he does intentionally give way to his host's normal voice for a moment, "Curious. No demands I stop pretending to be Ardbert? To give back his corpse?"
The next time he speaks, he'll do so with the carefully mimicked tones of his true self. This was just a test to see whether Irhya would flinch on hearing 'Ardbert', now that she's sure.
