@the CRAVER Before now, what could he have gained from revealing his identity to her? She is not only weak, she's is also ignorant of the hidden forces that he's been risking his life fighting. Revealing his identity will only make her fawn over him even more and senselessly follow him into dangerous situations and risk his life. Revealing his identity even right now doesn't make any sense to me. If they skipped this chapter, nothing in the narration would be affected.
