"This process lasted for nearly a decade," Nellie said. "This timeframe is just an estimate, I never calculated it precisely."
"Uh, it took you ten years just to figure out how you've changed?" Pannis's mouth twitched as he chuckled dryly, "Yeah, very quick, very quick."
"Are you about to say something else?" Nellie glared at Pannis in a threatening way and explained, "It wasn't just about understanding what happened to me. If that was the case, it definitely wouldn't have taken that long. Actually, I guessed pretty quickly that it was due to the Soul of Danacus sleeping within me that I had gained some of the Grimreaper's abilities. Realizing this wasn't hard. But, I couldn't just stop there. I had to test my newfound abilities and understand how they could be activated. I couldn't always rely on luck or intense desire to make the Divine Power work spontaneously; that would be too much of a failure, and it would also be too irresponsible."
