It seemed like Valerie had entirely accepted her position as a Duchess. She even announced her role to get ahead of the intimidating man who tried to harm a beastman just because he was in the way.
'Treat others the way you would like to be treated.'

Even though Zion already had the choker on his neck that would stop him from attacking humans, no one could still doubt what he was capable of doing, especially if it was ordered by Valerie.
