Her Identity (2)
"Anyway...you said you knew some information about the stages, right?" I said to the red-haired girl, who had risen from her bow.
"Yes. From what I currently know, there are 3 stages. However, I suspect there is far more than just that," the girl explained.
I nodded and fell into thought. "And every time I advance to the next stage, I become more powerful?"
She nodded. "That is correct, master. However, instead of 'advancing to the next stage', perhaps a better phrase would be 'break the next seal'."
I raised an eyebrow, hearing that. "Oh? Explain."
"As you wish, master," she replied, and continued after a pause. "In order to break through to the next stage of Chaos, you must break your seal. In other words, the power is already residing within you, but you just cannot use it as of now."
