[She's an intelligent woman, that much was already clear. Still Ikki finds amazing the questions she comes up with, she really wants to know and there's obvious thought behind those questions.]
Seeing that it has been asleep for thousands of years, yes, the Cloth would have continued dormant until someone whom it considered worth of it appeared. That's why no one expected me to survive or to become the Phoenix Saint even if I managed to survive.
[Her next question makes him frown thought, it's a matter he usually tends to ignore to his best abilities, specially given the fact that there's someone in the afterlife waiting for him.]
As there has never before been a Phoenix Saint it's unknown how long it will stay with its owner. Cloths normally stay with their owner as long as they live or until they give them up to someone else who is worth of them. But given the nature of this Cloth and that it has taken so long just for a man to be able to be accepted by it... As far as I know it'll stay with me forever. Specially since whenever I die I'll just resurrect after a while, with renewed strength and youth. I may as well grow up to die due old age only to resurrect days later as my young self.
[He lets her observe the armor as close as she wants, or touch it even if she wishes.]
That fire won't hurt anyone thought, at least not people who aren't my enemies. It won't feel hot even if you stand in the middle of it, probably because it's more a projection of our Cosmos than real fire, it won't have any effect to those with a Cosmos that holds no evil intentions... Or maybe it just works against those I consider my enemies.
[He has seen his companions walk through the fire as if nothing was there, but back when he fought them he was able to do so normally. He never stopped to ask them if his fire had given them extra damage or not, and wasn't really interested. As long as it worked against his enemies he would be satisfied.]
