"W-what?" Lilian stuttered.
Although Orion's appearance now resembled a dragon, to actually believe that he was one was too much for her. Dragons weren't even supposed to exist on this continent.
"How…? And… and…" She tried to speak but lost her words once again.
"I know it's hard to believe. But it's the truth." Orion was still in his dragon transformation.
Lilian covered her face with both hands and let out a long sigh. "It's just way too much to take in." She sat down, clearly exhausted.
"I know. Let's head back for today. After some rest, we'll talk properly." Orion said as he helped Lilian to her feet.
"How do we get back anyway?" Orion asked.
Lilian calmed herself momentarily. "To return, we need to use the stairs."
She looked at Orion's expression and understood what he was thinking.
"The stairs only appear when a room is cleared. For example, if we clear the sixth floor, a stairway connecting the sixth and fifth floors will appear."
