"Take a guess along with them?" The Giver revealed a small smile as she repeated his answer, apparently finding his continued unwillingness to reveal anything rather amusing. "It seems our friendship hasn't developed quite as well as it should have by now, I wonder what more should I do to have some trust."
"It hasn't even begun to develop yet," the Seer answered calmly, without showing any particular concern over her observation. "The number of Seals one possesses is among the forbidden secrets of every Transcendent, something no one would willingly reveal simply because another person happened to ask. If you don't believe that, then I sincerely ask you, with all the honesty and goodwill I can offer, to be so gracious as to tell me exactly how many Seals you possess."
