Valerian was dazed out when he heard these words from her. He could not digest it, after all, he imagined a dragon with no wings or magic, then was it any greater than a beast? However, he was not repulsed by this news. He empathized with Fortuna and said, "Do not worry, I will take you to the gateway. I just hope that you show me more trust. We could have made this trip earlier."
Fortuna sighed and said, "I was not sure if you would take so much pain for me. After all, I am just left behind beast, and if you used my body just as it is. It can still bring you a lot of gains."
Valerian shook his head and said, "You think too lowly of me. Your mother accompanied my mother in her death. Do you think the connection we share is that shallow? If they were alive, we would have been like siblings."
