Oh?
Quinlan uttered, “Tell me about this creature's background.”
Zeke elaborated, “Fortuna claims to be King of Dragons from the past and the king of all primordial beasts on Theos Island. Since you were the first master of the island, you should know about it.”
King of Dragons!
Upon hearing that, Quinlan was so shocked that his jaw nearly dropped.
Zeke hurriedly asked, “What's the matter, Mr. Hayes? So, you do know King of Dragons?”
Quinlan was still in a state of stupefaction and had yet to come back to his senses.
After Zeke repeated his questions several times, Quinlan finally pulled himself together.
“Ah! K-King of Dragons. I-I do know it. We were acquainted in the past.”
Zeke was elated. “I'm glad to hear that! Mr. Hayes, to be honest, Fortuna, or King of Dragons, swallowed a spirit pill and spat a fire seed to help me forge a divine weapon. Previously, Fortuna was my servant and pet. I was able to instruct it to do my bidding. However, after it regained its memories and realized it was King of Dragons, Fortuna left me and no longer obeyed my commands. Since you were acquainted, I'd like to ask you to plead with King of Dragons to help me forge a divine weapon.”
What?
A slightly fearful look flashed across Quinlan's countenance.
Zeke frowned. “What's wrong? Is that difficult to achieve?”
Quinlan swiftly replied, “T-That is indeed a little challenging.”
“Is it because you're not on good terms with Fortuna, so you're afraid it won't listen to you?”
“How should I put it? In the past, King of Dragons controlled the primordial beasts' area, and I was in charge of the human territory, and we didn't interfere with each other. We weren't enemies, but I wouldn't say we were friends.”
“If Fortuna is unwilling to yield, why don't we band together and force it to serve us?”
