"I have... Wait, mortal?"
"Indeed. You are my mortal counterpart, are you not?"
"Well, yeah, but--"
"That's all that you had to say, mortal."
"Alright. In that case, I take it that you know what I'm here for?"
"Yes, and before you ask, I refuse."
"What!?"
The Chaos Knight's face becomes even more stern, as Akio is confused.
"It is what you heard. I shan't give you your true power back."
"Why not?"
"I believe that the Phoenix told you the reason. Your physical body is too weak, and furthermore, you won't last if you use your power now."
"Then what do you suggest?"
"This can go in two directions: one, you wait, and unlock your power only when necessary, or you prove to me now that you can handle it."
"How can I do the latter?"
"Beat me in battle."
"Alright, that sounds easy enough."
"If you're so confident, then prove that you're not all talk."
