She decided to double down and hide her intentions

Lucius, unaware of her thoughts, fixed his cold red eyes on the beautiful woman before him and demanded,

"Why did you follow me?"

A fierce dragon aura emanated from Lucius, but Diana remained unfazed. Her bloodline, descended from world-conquering heroes, made her fearless even in the face of ancient dragons. Lucius's threat only drew a cold snort from her.

Knowing he wouldn't drop the matter, she answered with a firm retort,

"Lucius, you may be bold, but when did it become your place to question a noble's affairs?"

When Lucius heard Diana's words, he was taken aback. He knew Diana well and understood that she wasn't someone so narrow-minded as to believe in something as foolish as noble birthright.

 If she was throwing out her noble status, she was definitely trying to avoid something.
