Well in vol 21 it was said that the other allied factions will vote to elect Maou candidates, Vidar says in vol 23 that he will have to eventually be with Ise in politics in the future, so Ise is an official Maou candidate, and the other factions know this, so politics are involved, Asgard can’t simply came and demand Rossweisse, they have to meet with Ise, negotiate and even offer something in exchange (other Valkyrie or even a young Goddess), the only way the game can have Rossweisse as prize is if Ise agrees to.
